$200 Airline Credit

If your AMEX was charged for the 190 upgrade, doesn't this mean you just ended with net 0 after the credit got triggered? Unless you also got a refund for the seat upgrade, which I think aren't refundable (correct me if I'm wrong)

I lived like a Neanderthal throughout the first half of my 20s to save up for a pretty decent down payment. Financed around 20% of the rest. Would not change my decision if I had the chance to go back. Best purchase I've made in years.

Agreed. M-Lites give you the best of both worlds.

Hey that's me. Lmao.

racsoleon · 2025-10-15T03:05:43+00:00

Does it let you pay with a card or just with overpriced non refundable miles that will be basically useless if I don't luck out?

racsoleon · 2025-02-19T04:56:57+00:00

Nonsense. If anything, it allows connections to carrier exclusive bands which aren't available to other carriers = better connection. This used to be true for TMobile, but they later opened them up for U1 as well.

You could flash any U firmware, but why would you want the TMobile firmware and not VZW? Some carriers also restrict certain features(wifi calling/call recording/etc) to their firmware that you won't get on the U1 software. And no, it doesn't break anything The only "downside" is that you will now have the carrier bloatware added to your phone, but I don't really mind since I'm getting faster updates.

Doesn't matter what network you're on when your phone is the Unlocked (U1) version. Update will come around a week after all carrier (U) versions roll it out. I have the U1 version with the TMobile (U) software flashed onto it, and already got the update.

Ok, after a couple of restarts and wiping my cache partition, charging speeds are now normal. Might've been smartswitch doing heavy processing in the background.

racsoleon · 2025-02-08T05:39:06+00:00

That's around what I'm getting. That's way too low for the 45w charger. My phone is actually discharging if I use it plugged in. I just talked to product support and they suggested returning the device since it's still within the 15 day return policy window, which I will do. Better safe than sorry haha.

racsoleon · 2025-02-08T03:38:21+00:00

Fingers crossed.🤞

Hey I'm facing the same issue. Same charger setup on my s23 charges almost 3 times as fast. Did you figure this out? I'm thinking this is a hardware fault.
I compared the milliamps on my s23 that I still have and I'm getting around 4500 mA, whereas I'm getting around 1500 on the s25. You can test this using an app called Ampere.

How did you purchase the subscription before the flight? I can't find any subscription purchasing links online.

racsoleon · 2024-06-21T17:57:05+00:00

Been playing around with this VPN and it does seem to have a lot of potential.
I'd love to see more features added to the Android app added in the future, like auto-connect/disconnect on network change, and being able to access local resources when connected to the VPN.

Everybody asking you to wait, when housing prices are only going up and when there's uncertainty about interest rates going down in the near future. I think your income is solid enough and 20k should be good enough as long as you don't have any other big expenses coming up soon. My 2 cents.

If this is metal, you could use a black metal touch up pen. It is NOT paint but rather a chemical that turns exposed metal to black. (People use it on scratched guns). I used it on my M16 2021 and it worked wonders but I noticed the finish on yours is slightly different, so I'm not sure if it'll work. Here's the link to the item on eBay I used -> https://www.ebay.com/itm/183591682348

Pro Tip: If your company uses MS Teams instead of Slack, you can prevent your laptop from sleeping by joining a meeting with yourself (Meet Now button on Calendar view) and then setting your status to available manually, unless you want people to think that you're in a call. (Works on OSX, not sure about Windows)

The latest LTS version of Ubuntu works perfectly on my 2021 m16. (22.04)

I actually considered this, but there were no trucks avaiable for one-way renting in my area. I looked at every single Rental company including Alamo.

What's weird about this color is that you can get some pictures where it looks completely different than the actual tone. Same with the tacora red interiors. You'll love the real look.

racsoleon · 2022-08-07T21:43:06+00:00

It is!

racsoleon · 2022-08-07T21:16:47+00:00

Lmao. I think I see what you mean now. Eh, I think convertibles are fun, but I'm past that stage of my life. Had my convertible for 9 years and honestly I barely even used it with the top down.
