So basically - I get reimbursed from work for service, but not devices.

I want to see how GoogleFi bills

AT&T would charge the full amount and then have a second section for bill credits etc.

Basically, I want to bill the $65/mo to work, and pocket the phone cost, as I'm buying a personal device, not cutting my company a discount.

Can anyone share what this looks like - a description or screencap, please do not include any personal info of course

Cheers

I just signed up for service three days ago. My new job has a bunch of international travel, so this is the best plan for me, I fully intend on staying with it unless they turn around and double the price or something.

On the first page when I go to the Google Fi webpage I see the deal:

>Get the new Pixel 11 Pro on us and $10/mo off your phone plan. Stack your savings with $300 off Pixel 11 Pro instantly and $799 back over 24 monthly credits. Plus, a $10/mo service credit for 2 years on the Unlimited Premium plan.

The detail is:

>$300 off now + $800 back over 24 monthly credits when you activate it on a new line with Unlimited Premium plan

Is my line considered "New"?

>A new Fi customer is someone who has never had Fi service or someone whose last day of Fi service took place more than 180 days before making a purchase with this promotion.

Just want to make sure I really qualify for this because it seems pretty solid.

$300 discount, $800 back via monthly credits, $240 additional back in discounts to service is pretty nuts, I've never used an Android phone but I'm barely committed to Apple and I'm curious to swap as my current device is getting aged out (iPhone 13)

Hi. My new position at work has me going into the EU and Canada about 5-10x a year for a few days at a time. I’ll probably take some more personal time over there too so I’d wager 5-7% of my time would be there with the rest of my time at home in the US.

I just completed a trip and dealing with E sims and swapping by country is a nightmare.

I leave again in 10 days.

If I get into it now, would my next trip be at risk? It will be two weeks international.

I get it if so, just trying to solve this problem now or preparing another wave of E-sims through one of those apps like Airolo

I plan on making the switch regardless just trying to prep. Thanks!

The amount of effort that goes into this is so little, the cost is so pathetic, but the flavor, satiety, value, ease, and nutrition is too good to not share. I buy buckwheat in bulk from a local european market for $3 per pound which would make a 40g serving around $.26 lol

Ingredients

40g dry toasted buckwheat

80ml water (2:1 water-to-buckwheat ratio)

½ small/medium onion, minced

1 jalapeño, minced

1 clove of minced garlic (or two, or three, or Jarlic, it literally doesn't matter, go nuts)

1 tsp Better Than Bouillon

5g butter

Rough steps:

Prep: boil some water in a kettle. While you're waiting, lazily rinse the buckwheat. I put it in a small pot and rinse with sink water. You don't have to, I'm not convinced it matters.

Cooking phase: 40g of buckwheat in the pot. Add 80g or 80mL of hot water (2 to 1). Add any seasonings or extras (this recipe would be the minced onion, garlic, jalapeno, bouillion)

Boil with lid mostly on for 4 or 5 minutes, I tilt the lid a bit so air can escape but liquid will mostly drip back into the pan, not important, you can also just boil it on low with lid completely on, whatever

when 4-5 mins are up, turn off heat, just let the pan sit while you do the rest of the cooking, give it at least 10 minutes

open it, add 5g of butter, stir in a bit, done

It looks pretty good. I really just need a grocery getter (and by groceries I mean mulch and yard debris).

The grey thing just pops up at random places and searching just doesn't work anymore on Browser. Works fine on Mobile. Started two days ago.

6 months now. Hundreds of dollars. The same routine nearly every day.

Take a few bites, orbit around the bowl for a few minutes, then finally the "I'm just gonna cover this up" antics where they scratch at the floor around it.

The annoying thing is, occasionally, she will destroy the food, like eat the whole bowl in a few minutes. "Great, she must like that flavor". So I buy 6 more cans. Dinner time comes around, turns her nose up, back to the burying routine.

We got her from the humane society, they feed their cats Hills dry food. She's obsessed with it. Flavor doesn't matter.

You win cat. Drink your damn water please (she has a running UV fountain and a water bowl in her food station that gets cleaned daily)

My friend has had his Samsung Bespoke Fridge for almost 2 years now. I asked him about it and did some prodding around on it and I was kinda surprised.

I've repaired my Samsung fridge several times and flip broken appliances at times, while not a professional with pro experience, I've tackled some stuff that surprises even myself

The key points of butt-pain that got Samsung its reputation and even lawsuits that they had to pay out millions over:

A. Icemaker in the Fridge - Terrible design, nonstop problems.

• This has been moved to the freezer and there is no door mechanism. The icemaker is now incredibly simple and easy to access and replace parts on.

B. Fridge Rear-Panel Frosting Over - The old versions were cheap as crap and the fan was placed right where frost would build up. The styrofoam was also not sealed and would get wet, freeze, break the seal to the back of the fridge, and cascade into a frozen-over coil and fan.

• The new panel is really nice. The parts fiche also shows that the defroster system seems simplified and placed in a more intuitive spot, now that the coil area isn't as cramped, they can actually put these things where it makes sense. The entire fan mechanism is changed and out of the way of ice, the sytrofoam is now sealed and wider, far away from frost build-up, and in general, very robust by comparison

C. The "Water reservoir freezing" problem that would cause cracked/damage water housing and flooding

• Completely resolved, the water reservoir is moved up significantly and the lowest point is now the drawers, this problem is completely eliminated.

What is left? I have not seen much in terms of premature samsung compressor failure or anything.

Trying to keep up with things here, but I have $3,000 in Lowes Gift Cards added to my cart.

I need to go buy a fridge from Lowes sometime in the next few days.

Am I missing anything? 11x points for this? Or is there some catch like a hard limit, paze being blocked, or it taking months to "issue" the GC?
