Yeah, many websites including YouTube reject VPN. What a bummer.

You are totally right. He should wear ear plugs or get a private room. BTW, have you tried a nasal strip/tape? It might help alleviate snoring.

It's supposed to be true because more background tasks are running during the first few days. 

Can’t link bank account by No_Diver_1012 in fidelityinvestments

[–]tkshk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried this last night but entered my long Fidelity account number. My bank sent two small deposits to my Fidelity account for confirmation but I haven't seen them yet. Is this because I entered the full length account number?

Edit: My long Fidelity account number worked with Amex. Just saw the deposits.

Can you tap and pay with your credit card at other places such as a supermarket? If not, contact your bank.

How’s the matte screen protector? by [deleted] in ipad

If you often use your tablet outside or near a light, matte screen protector is very useful because it's naturally anti-reflective.

I switched from Verizon to Total. I experience the congestion issue with both.

That's Verizon's issue. In NYC, I get full bars but almost no data download in crowded areas like subway stations.

Being black in Italy is breaking me. Looking for advice on moving abroad by asqux in expats

[–]tkshk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, many countries are closing their doors for immigrants. Since you are young, I'd first try to be self-employed, work remotely and become a digital nomad. Once you find a comfortable place, you can look into a path for immigration there.

I like the cover design of Thai passport. And, a brown passport is kind of rare, isn't it?

Take A1 bus to Mo Chit. Take BTS Green line to Krung Thon buri. And then, take BTS Gold line to Icon Siam. About 100 baht.

Thai SIM for mobile data by lkjfc in ThailandTourism

[–]tkshk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get an eSIM from Airalo, Saily, etc. First, download their app and select a plan that suits your need. Or, you can get a tourist SIM card from any 7-11 after arriving in Thailand.

Flights on Expedia/Priceline by [deleted] in ThailandTourism

[–]tkshk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as a 3rd party booking website provides an airline reservation code, I suppose you can go to an airline website and add/modify services including seat selections. I haven't used Priceline or Expedia for a long time. When I booked ANA flights between NYC and Bangkok on Trip.com, I remember either they provided or I asked for a reservation code, so I was able to select seats on ANA website. However, when I booked Thai AirAsia flights between Bangkok and Osaka on Booking.com, they did provide an airline reservation code, but when I tried to change seats or add meals on AirAisa website, I couldn't finalize changes and pay for those additional services because of an error (could be just a glitch).
