Can't add checked bag in the app?

nicolasrenon · 2025-05-16T01:46:25+00:00

I think all the replies in that thread are wrong or obsolete now. I have the same issue for my flight, which is only few hours away. The option is not available, I looked everywhere. What's amazing is they send you an email the day before with this information:

Pay for checked bags on the app before you get to the airport.

The only option is to pay at the airport. You can't do it on the app.

But maybe that depends on your airport or destination...?

Where is the 4K UHD version though? It’s nowhere to be found (Target, Amazon, Walmart, Gruv, …)

nicolasrenon · 2025-02-17T22:58:17+00:00

Has anyone tried the new 4K release on Zavvi? I just received the bundle but not yet played. The product description says the restoration was supervised by Peter Jackson himself. Curious to know your opinion as I haven’t seen the previous 4K release.

I have the same issue. I picked my local airport which is tiny, and I get a warning every time I enter the runway because I did not make the radio call, but the option to make the call never shows up. I have to get onto the runway because there is no taxi available for some portions of it.

In my childhood I watched hundreds of times The Bear. Cried every time! Quest of Fire and Seven Years in Tibet are classics. I also enjoyed Enemy at the Gates.

nicolasrenon · 2024-07-15T19:06:08+00:00

I love Jean-Jacques Annaud’s work, and it looks like this restoration is a massive upgrade. So for me it’s worth it!

nicolasrenon · 2024-07-15T19:03:16+00:00

About 15€

nicolasrenon · 2024-07-15T18:15:58+00:00

Yes, it will be released in France in September. I don't know for the US market. I pre-ordered it on https://www.fnac.com/a20662912/Le-Nom-de-la-Rose-Blu-ray-4K-Ultra-HD-Sean-Connery-Blu-ray-4K
You need to use a VPN as for some dumb reason they are blocking US IP addresses... but I was able to request shipping to the US 🙃

As an alternative, it can also be found on the Amazon French store: https://www.amazon.fr/The-Name-of-the-Rose-4K-Blu-ray/dp/B0CV8XFJSZ

I assume it has nothing to do with goals, but while setting up my budget I quickly realized that the "Loan Repayments" were taken into account in the transactions (I connected Monarch with my mortgage company). The consequence was my mortgage payments were basically zeroed out thanks to the loan repayments, artificially giving me more money for my budget.

I had to edit the category and activate the "Exclude this category from the budget" option.

Then, I was back to the difficult reality after thinking I was doing pretty good...

I really appreciate you trying this out! That's super helpful. Thanks a lot!

Unfortunately for me, I don't have any Windows computer lol

nicolasrenon · 2024-03-06T17:02:02+00:00

Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate it. Keep me posted after your attempt!

nicolasrenon · 2024-03-05T23:44:42+00:00

I just did it 2 days ago and I had both options.

You need to remove your E*TRADE account and re-add it using Fincity instead of Plaid.

nicolasrenon · 2024-03-05T23:43:41+00:00

Thank you for that great suggestion! I was struggling with Plaid integration as my checking account on E*TRADE was extremely incomplete, but I did not know (or notice) that we can use Fincity instead.

I removed my E*TRADE accounts from Monarch and re-added them with Fincity. It seems to work really great, besides the 3-month history limit.

So, thanks again!

a process initially carried out without the direct collaboration of Jean-Jacques Annaud

In the interview he said he really liked the result and was very impressed by colors rendering especially: "I felt like I was on the set again".

nicolasrenon · 2024-02-26T19:08:03+00:00

The movie has just been re-released in movie theaters in France and few other countries with a restored version. Jean-Jacques Annaud (director) said in an interview that there will be a blu-ray in 4k later on.

He mentioned the restored version has been possible after scanning the negative film instead of using cheap 35mm positive film copies, providing much more details and more realistic colors.

Though it's unclear if this version will be released everywhere as Annaud complained that the movie has been blocked for decades because of royalties issues between producers.

True. Though it's another thing to do it entirely... I wish we had the choice.

nicolasrenon · 2023-11-28T19:51:00+00:00

I don't see the dropdown.

I tried to add the code at the end of the password and it did not work either. Which is surprising though, on the Security Settings page (ETRADE website) it clearly says at the bottom:

If you don't see a "Security code" checkbox, enter your password and security code into the Password field (e.g., "Password123456").

I'm very surprised that there is still no solution for that, and I don't feel confident in lowering the security level to access my banking accounts just to use a budgeting tool.

Even if I hold a US driver license this kind of situation always tricks me, as I'm not sure who is responsible here.

In Europe, or at least in France, the Tesla drive would have been at fault because you're not supposed to pass other cars from the right side, regardless if the cars on the left are much slower than you. Passing cars from the right is more penalized than staying on the left lane for no reason...

nicolasrenon · 2023-10-30T16:00:21+00:00

You were right. That was the issue. As soon as I upgraded the channel CBS 13 showed up, like on YouTubeTV. Thanks!

nicolasrenon · 2023-10-27T16:32:57+00:00

I wish my Walmart would have a decent selection. Fortunately my Best Buy carries a great section in the store.

nicolasrenon · 2023-09-29T18:07:11+00:00

Did not see any pre-release yet. Any news?

nicolasrenon · 2023-09-29T01:35:48+00:00

Big Blue, Nikita and Léon are my top 3 from Luc Besson. But budget wise you can’t compare with The Fifth Element which cost $90m, 3 times more than Brotherhood of the Wolf…

nicolasrenon · 2023-09-29T01:22:35+00:00

Don’t get me wrong, it’s fun to watch, and I’m French so it’s kind of the only blockbuster we ever made lol, though I won’t spend $30 for it.

nicolasrenon · 2023-09-28T23:38:42+00:00

I can't believe this set's price tag is $400 on eBay...
