Split, Trogir, Park Krka, Park Plitvička, Pula, Rovinj, Poreč, how many days for each?

Hey guys, I've done a bit of homework for quite some time now, and I've narrowed it down to these cities only. I've read the wiki itineraries, but since I'm cutting out some stops, I want a better idea.

Skipping Dubrovnik due to the distance, and Zagreb as well. My family plans to rent a car in Split, and drive North all the way to Porec. We'll then cross the border into Slovenia for a few more days and fly out from Ljubljana

We have about 10 full days, so mostly wondering about how to split them for Croatia

Split > probably 2 nights, and one of them will be spent in Trogir?

Park Krka> one night? Use Šibenik as base?

Park Plitvička> one day? Not sure which city to use as the base

Pula, Rovinj, Poreč> maybe one night for each? Or just 2 nights total and use one of the cities as base?

We have 10 days total on this trip, ideally probably 6 days in Croatia and 4 in Slovenia. Feel free to recommend some stops we can't miss or anything we should skip as well, time is limited to trying the best we can, thanks in advance

Does a 2.0 Floorstanding speaker setup for gaming, right next to the desk, even work/make sense at all?

https://preview.redd.it/udnudw7bqkih1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=340ef70384b17d8fc60d44a8b8ee96a47a4b1d21

Hi, the picture is from an old post from someone else, let's just pretend it's a 2.0 floor-standing speaker setup, right next to the desk, or slightly behind, as shown here.

I'm planning to use the WiiM Amp Ultra and connect it to my PC, I know this is not ideal for sitting right in front of the speakers (or too close to them) and not giving the speakers enough space against the wall or the desk.

But mainly concerned about if I'm doing FPS gaming, where I need to hear the footsteps' direction, would this setup mess those footsteps up? (Like unable to distinguish them), or any huge downsides that I'm not aware of besides it could sound crappy?

Again, I know this is not an ideal setup, but I just really wanted a nice set of speakers, and I'm using them whenever I'm on my PC as well.

11 days, Copenhagen > Goteborg > Oslo > Stockholm, any advice is welcome.

Planning a trip in Mid/late September, originally, it was just Copenhagen > Stockholm for the full 11~12 days, but it seems like that would be overkill, as most people suggest 4 days in those cities.

Got suggested adding Goteborg, maybe adding a day or two? Seems like this can be easily done and stop by on the train to Oslo.

And I know a lot of people didn't recommend Oslo, but I've always wanted to check out Norway, just somehow really attached to this country for a while, even if I'm not visiting Bergen. I do wish I could have a car and visit the Nordic scenery next time.

I won't be driving, so this would be all trains. Yes, I know the small cities are nicer, but it feels a bit difficult to plan them out without a car and constant moving between cities, so not sure if this would suffice, traveling on a 7 kg carry-on bag only.

Wondring if this route looks right, Helsinki looked cool too, but the 10-hour+ ferry puts me off :(

Selling, Seattle, 6/19, USA vs Australia, Cat 1, sideline corner, 1x ticket

https://preview.redd.it/ic9yko3yfp7h1.png?width=684&format=png&auto=webp&s=f6797576a32d8926609ac72a86f6d65eec59354f

Selling 1x ticket to Seattle game for USA vs Australia, Cat 1, Section 229, Row D, so it's at the front too, pretty much in the corner, so probably lots of action with a good view.

Asking Price is $3300 but negotiable within close range, this is currently the cheapest on the FIFA resell portal for sideline Cat 1, not counting endzones, similar tickets are about $4000 now.

I bought it for $3450 as shown, hoped this would be a dream come true that I got to watch USA play in person, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I can not attend anymore, trust me, this sucks. Hopefully, they go to someone who'll enjoy it. You can look up my ID in Seattle Mariners/Seahawks subs to confirm I'm a real person living in Seattle.

Ideally, I'm hoping to trade in person around Bellevue/Renton, East Seattle side, cash preferred, as I believe you can't Zelle/Venmo a stranger for high amount of money? But let me know if you prefer other methods, feel free to DM.

ptfsports jersey, stitching looks off?

This is a Mariners authentic cream alternate I just received them but the stitching looks kind of bad, as you can see, kinda all over the place with marks here and there, is this normal?

The 5 on the back is completely misaligned… bad

This is my first time buying jerseys online, and I believe these guys are very reputable, just couldn’t wrap my head around this, thoughts?

You can no longer change partner reward flights?

I booked a starlux flight to fukuoka, decided I want to visit another city instead, tried to change on the website throws and error

So I called in to Alaska line, the lady told me you can’t change it and I’d have to cancel the original flight and rebook

Problem is there’s a non refundable partner booking fee and I’d rather not eat that…

I was able to change my flight last year with starlux via Alaska website, the lady said this got changed recently, and you can’t change partner rewards flight now

Anyone aware of this? Is this true? I looked up this sub but don’t see anyone mentioning this

Hi folks, I'm trying to plan a day at Mt. Rainier NP, but unfortunately, I'm not a hiker or capable of walking long distances, so I'm wondering if there are any easy but beautiful trails I can do from Paradise? (or other locations?

I've seen a lot of people recommending Skyline, but that seems rather difficult for me, would appreciate any feedback/suggestions, or any general tips for visiting Rainier.

Or maybe not even trails, just some stops that're worth getting off the car and walk for a little bit.

I'll be visiting on a weekday in the summer, thanks in advance.
