I booked a china eastern airlines flight through Expedia and realized today (2 weeks out) that my middle name's not on the tickets.

I called expedia and they said they can't change it because the first leg is provided by Delta airlines but operated by china eastern.

Then I did an online chat where they told me the same reason as to why they couldnt do it.

Then I called the LA CEA office and they cited the same reason.

Expedia said I should change it because my name needs to match the passport as much as possible. The LA CEA location said it needs to match as per their policy. The online chat said generally I won't have any issues with a missing middle name granted my first and last name as well as passport number are all good.

On reddit most people say it shouldn't matter, but maybe I'm scared because in their case, had they have called, they could've added the middle name, meanwhile, I cant even change the middle name because of delta providing the first flight, so I'm scared that even at the counter they wouldnt be able to add the middle name.

It feels like the norm on reddit to make a post and then not reply to comments at all. I feel like I see more interaction from by celebrities on their instagram posts lmao.

Maybe there's too many comments, but usually even 10 comments out of 500 dont get a reply.

Often, when I even post something on reddit it's because I'm looking for entertainment, so I wanna reply to most comments with my thoughts on it, further question, appreciation, a joke, or something, but then I feel like a weirdo

In the Netherlands, average height is 184 cm, increasing or decreasing based on your city. I understand that 174 cm would be around average in your country, but this subreddit, many topics are approached from a social lens rather than medical or biological. 174 cm feels undeniably short in the Netherlands, especially when many many women are taller than you, when youre rejected for your height, when youre made fun of by others, and generally feel insecure with how well you could protect someone you care about against an average attacker.

The whole world to a dutch guy is the Netherlands considering that's where he lives and everyone he interacts with is from there.

Netherlands isnt the only place with this situation. Same thing applies in many other countries in Europe, as the average height even is 180 cm.

I'm an American going to China for work, but I realized I forgot to include my middle name on expedia where I bought my tickets for a delta flight operated by China eastern airlines and the other connecting flights which are china eastern airlines alone.

I'm now going crazy in paranoia that theyll deny me a boarding pass or entry into a certain point

I'm not worried bout the weight since I have two checked bags up to 50 lbs and a carry-on up to 8, but the issue is the sizing. The bags I'm buying (the smallest i could find on amazon) are 62 inches each. I'm worried about it expanding when filled with stuff.

Then, the smallest carry on i could find is an inch over in depth from 7.9 to 9. Will I be okay? Or am I to expect problems?

Would it be death by just attacking with as many pips as you have any time you get lower HP? Would it be life just casting guardian angel and trying to heal to be as high hp as possible at any given moment? Would it be Ice just casting shields and auras on yourself constantly?

Specifically for advanced combat mode

We progress together as we started new accounts from scratch, and since theres four of us, there's many times 1-3 of us are on while the fourth is busy, and so what are the mkst meaningful things for us to do individually or together without doing storyline quests?

For reference, we're currently in Krok.

Is there any website I can view side quests by which gives the highest xp per world?

Is there any benefit to 100%ing a world?

Fishing, crafting, pet training, or gardening worth it at our level yet?

I think these glasses are so much better than any other options at the same price point. Brighter, lighter, less heat, and better comfort, but for some reason, while my Rayneo Air 3s were edge to edge clear, these are oddly only clear near the edges...

That's the opposite issue I have with my Rokid Maxs. Those are clear in the center, but not the edges.

When I put on my old lenses on (ones i have from before doing lasik), it actually makes the center more clear somehow, but the edges stay the same. I can't say the same for the rokid max, which has the same amount of clairty with or without the lenses. Is there something I am missing?

My IPD is 61 to 62 mm. Do I just take the loss and return these and get Rayneo Air 4s?

Google says it's 50, but some reddit post less than a year ago also said 60? I'm guessing it's one of those, but is that for practice or ranked?

What's the best school for the minimum level pvp?

What's the difference between arena, tournaments, practice, ranked, and 5th age?

Silky, a streamer in the group CORE (A rebrand of FaZe) has a level 180 wiz (max), and talks about it often in his stream. He not only missed a flight because he was playing the game, but also almost missed another.

He recently tweeted at KI about his account getting banned (not sure if it has been unbanned yet), but basically, he plays pretty often.

The current generation of popular streamers has a significant portion who grew up playing wiz, for example, Santipulgaz, Aishahsofey, Yugi2x, Silky, etc.

Most Tiktok clips posted (and viewed as well) seem to not come from gaming YouTubers, but twitch streamers.

I feel like taking advantage of this small hype up of the game and snowballing it into a bigger opportunity with potential sponsorship investments would be a great move by KI.

People on tiktok will see clips of not only the game, but also whenever they tune in to watch the streamer they see other clips of on tiktok, there's a decent chance they're playing wiz.

The age group to be invested in is literally the 20-30 year old generation. They're the ones who have both the nostalgia (motivation to spend money on the game) and recently acquired jobs (ability to spend money on the game).

I just thought it was interesting seeing streamers that aren't even live, tweeting stuff like "who wants to play wizard101" just for the fun. Shows a lot of potential.

I had Rayneo air 3 and loved how clear they were edge to edge. Xreal airs were my first AR glasses, so I can't remember which of the two were better since three was a Rokid Max between them.

Main thing I liked about xreal air though more from memory is that they had microphones built in so I didn't need a separate one (which is especially inconvenient lying down in bed playing games on discord).

My use case is literally just using them as a gaming monitor and occasionally to watch movies on my phone. I keep my head still so I don't need DOF. I don't want any screen movement, id rather it be "stuck" in my vision. So i guess clarity is what matters to me most, and then screen size, and then vibrancy. Obviously preferably all at the same time.

Changing with Delta was flawless, but I can't seem to change my ticket in cea. I verified my ticket with my ticked id and name (had to jumble it around with last, first-middle. Now i cant seem to change seats. The only extra variables here are ID number, which i presume is passport, and flight number, which is pretty clear.

I get "null" on every attempt

I use my Meta Quest 3 as a monitor. Quest 3 is basically an Android device, so Moonlight or Artemis work with it.

I miss having multiple displays like other apps on the Q3 let me have, so I was thinking all I need to do is just open another session on a duplicated app, which would work in theory, but I need to figure out how exactly I can make apollo/sunshine make another virtual desktop on top of what it already has instead of accessing the same one. Is there some way to duplicate apollo so I can have two sessions at once running?

This is gonna be the most Neurodivergent post, but I'm going to a Waterpark with a group of friends including women. I'm on a cut so I feel small.

When I take off my shirt, I wanna look as big as I do with my pump. How do I do it?

Do I sit there flexing my muscles until failure or do I do some anabolic plyometrics like chest flies against my knees sitting?

The first impression is what matters most so I don't need to keep getting the pump.

It's not nonchalant enough and might even just be straight up the most corny way to commit social suicide to do push ups before taking off my shirt.

It doesn't need to be too detailed of a base. Just enough to at least build I have played and enjoyed Palworld, Conan exiles, and Enshrouded because of the bases you can build while doing survival stuff.

From these games which of them fit what I want?

Dragonwilds

Once Human

Soulmask

Nightingale

Craftopia

Sons of the forest

Icarus

windrose

dune awakening

Additionally, I'd enjoy a game that has bosses, class systems (like upgrading perks and stuff or leveling up certain weapon types for your character), and decent/modern graphics.

Which of them is more impactful on gameplay? I'm asking because I have someone I queue up with who lives in Asia and they have 145 ping if we play on Oregon in NA, versus 179 if it's on Texas (my servers).

If we do Oregon though, I have 63, versus 13 on Texas.

On one hand, 13 to 63 is a bigger jump in terms of the raw number difference as well as in terms of the proportion. But 63 is still playable, meanwhile 145 is not so good to play on, and so 179 may be even worse?

I don't know if ping difference is made to be exponentially worse as you get higher ping, or only marginally worse.

I would think 145 is bad and 179 isn't so easily differentiated as they both just feel like "high ping." Does it even matter or should we just queue up any server?

Recently I've seen an increase in videos coming out where chinese men will physically attack foreigners, especially darker skinned ones, and also I've seen many of those AI videos where they glorify beating up black people or something.

I'm not expecting to be assaulted, but if I am, what should I do in general?

Fight back, but only wrestle, no strikes? Run away (what if I'm with a friend or a girl)? Just take it up the ass and then try moving on with my day? Call police immediately while it's happening? Record? Ask people to help?

I enjoy spending time with my cousin, she's really fun and cool and all, but this one part of our day together bothered me.

She said she was in the mood for donuts, so I offered to drive us to Walmart to go get some (Walmart donuts are good. I eat Krispy Kreme and all the other yummy local spots, but sometimes you crave Walmart, just like you sometimes crave McDonalds).

At Walmart, we figured there's nothing much more entertaining to do while at home, so we just mess around and window shop the clearance isles where I buy a harmonica, and play around with the bicycles, go into the toy sections for a nostalgia trip and for the sake of our curiosity. We then continue on towards other isles that are mildly entertaining before getting the Bavarian Creme Filled Bismarck Doughnuts we went there for).

A 20-minute drive back home later and I go to wash my hands after setting the donuts on the countertop, excited to eat them, but then I see her use the same hands that were used to touch all of those things in Walmart, to put her half of donuts and my own half onto their separate sides. Now I don't even want to eat the donuts because even if I get don't get sick, the knowledge of eating donuts with the Walmart germs and everything else in between all over them is unappetizing. I said nothing, but told her she could take the donuts home since I "remembered I was on my diet."

This isn't the first time something like this has happened. I've offered some pizza to a friend before, and she just put her dirty hands on my slice to separate the two slices. Another friend just used the bathroom, and I didn't hear a wash of hands, and they went to dap me up since they were about to leave. Why does it seem like no one cares about hygiene anymore? I thought it was mostly men who were this careless about having clean hands. I'm starting to feel more like a germaphobe than just someone who makes an effort to be clean.

I have clash verge with a good cat subscription and can't seem to stream on twitch like this. I even tried using restream. Does anyone have any idea on how to set this up? Has anyone done it before with knowledge on how to do it now?
