Can somone explain why 4k pro does not shut down completely?

Why is it so important to keep the device in sleep mode rather than shutting it down? What's the benefit to the end user?

My cruise is $650 cheaper now. I called and they will not give FCC.

Booked through NCL so my Nov cruise is fully paid. My final payment date has passed. my cruise is $650 cheaper today but on my existing reservation, I have triple latitude points. and I have the vibe on the ship paid as well.

I just called NCL and ask the NCL guy to check with his supervisor about future cruise credit for the price difference. He checked and said they CANNOT do that.

I basically have to cancel my cruise and rebook, losing all benefits

Capital One credit cards don’t work in Europe anymore.

Apparently a few months ago, Capital One was bought by Discover.
We just got back from a trip to Dublin and Paris and my Capital One credit card wouldn’t work anywhere.

Question about max catchup contribution limits - to Lower taxable income. (over 50)

Hello.I am over 50 and I have a question about Max Contribution limits -> to Lower taxable income.

I was under the impression that if I contribute over $24500 then my catchup will be forced into a Roth IRA. Is that true?

Someone told me that would only happen if my previous fica income was over $150,000?

If my wife and I have a combined income over $150,000 fica income will I get taxed on the catchup amount?

Disappointing Dinner River Cruise

We took a river cruise dinner cruise and it was disappointing. The noise in the dining room was so loud I could not here my wife. Kids running around. Not romantic at all. The food was ok but We paid over $200 and I don't recommend a dinner cruise unless you pay for a top dollar cruise. $300+ or just get one with no meal at all.

Loved eSIM while in Europe but

I couldn’t log into my bank or credit cards. They all use SMS messaging. And WIFI does allow them either.
Any work arounds?

Got through CDG airport ok today. 45 mins.

But staying at the Sheraton in the Airport saved at least 1hr. Paris traffic is not good.
Keep close eye on terminal and gate. Gate Change can add 10-20 mins walking.

Just arrived. Took Taxi from Airport to 16th Arrisment.

I read so many horror stories about getting a taxi at the Airport. (CDG). But we had No problem at all. Inside the airport we met A few guys asking if we needed taxis. But we ignored them and follow signs to taxis. No problem at all. Just look for the blue feet on the floor for taxis. Some will be outside to point you to a taxi. 👍
And 56 Euro. No scam with real Taxis. 👍

Ocular migraines (for 30+ years) from canned Tuna. Mercury.

Hello. I'm putting this post out there for others to learn from. I am 64m and I am in generally good health. I am not a bot. I am an average male with no allergys ever. I had ocular migraines on and off for the last 30 yrs. They caused a blurred spot in my vision for about 20 mins. They happened approximatly once every few weeks.

My son is a PhD student and he said he was starting to have migranes. He felt it was something in his diet but I told him about how I've ahd them and it was probably hereditary. He started dating someone and the topic of how mush he like Tuna on his date and the young lady warned him about mercury in canned Tuna. He decided to stop eating canned Tuna. No Migranes. He told me and I stopped eating canned Tuna. Its been SIX MONTHS since my last occualr migrane. 6 MONTHS!

I am not a gullable person or someone who follows trends. I need proof before I make changes. And that is what happened to me with canned Tuna.

Hope this helps someone.

EDIT: My symptons from the canned Tuna were not an allergic reaction. They happened very randomly.

LVP plank ends blistering up from humidity.

We paid $11,000 to have LVP installed in our condo 2 yrs ago. It was Shaw Prodigy. The ends are swelling/blistering up. Its probably due to humidity. (We live near a river). They looked great after the 1st year but now It looks like a few of the planks were mashed together. Were worried its gonna get worse over time.

What brand / type of flooring can handle humidity best? (Besides porceline tiles)

This was not there 1 yr ago

We’re planning on brining suitcases and carryons from CDG to Gare du Nord and switching to metro.
