AC42 flight from yesterday, is this normal? Water dripping

Cabin crew said it is condensation and pretty normal. Made me a bit uncomfortable sitting there getting drenched for no reason because the landing sequence had been initiated. They did give me some tissues (by grabbing a few from the lavatory 😭, so i could wipe my face).
Should I do anything about it, like showing concern or sharing feedback with AC team?
Open to suggestions. If this is normal, I'll just let it pass, as no harm done.

Portal screen flashes on for a split second then goes black — backlight failure?

on bootup or pressing power button while charging, the screen flashes on for a split second (I can see the battery/charging screen and the PS logo), then goes completely dark. The device itself boots fine — controller works, and if I look closely I can faintly see the PS logo in the background, so the LCD seems to be rendering but the backlight shuts off.

Tried so far: force reboot (power + PS, power + share), holding power 15s, different charger, booting while plugged in. I thought it could be backlight failure as PS logo shows faint in the background when checked with a flashlight, but after boot up it disappears and the Home Screen doesn't show up, so skeptical if this is the cause.

No drops or water damage that I know of. Anyone seen this? Did a display replacement fix it, or could it be a board-level issue?

We can now prepay to get the max Cashback from Scotiabank momentum?

I was trying to setup prepayment manually by editing next month's rent to get the maximum Cashback before 4% Cashback discontinues on Oct 22, but then saw this feature where Chexy allows you to just select how many months upfront you want to prepay which is pretty sick. Thank you Chexy.
I haven't maxed out 25k limit yet, so planning to prepay for next 2 months for now.

Question though - does anyone know if the card will be charged right away but the payment to landlord will be released on the scheduled date for upcoming months? or will it issue the payments to landlord right away?

Walk back home from Office

I walk back via Queens Quay from my office, and saw these 2 boats that seemed out of the ordinary. Pretty sick.

Sent my iPhone under AppleCare for Repair 17pro

This is my first time getting an apple device repaired under Apple care, and the process seems a bit overwhelming.

Anyone here go through the repair process? I'm in Toronto and mailed my iPhone to apple since express replacement is not an option here at least for my case it appears.

Quick background- Dropped my iPhone 17pro on stairs (still getting rage baited at home for this), bent frame and cracked front glass.
Assumed frame is part of back, so I selected front and back damaged and sent it for repair and paid 88 CAD.
Apple tech reviewed the device and came back saying the frame is "Bent/Twisted Enclosure / Frame / Headband", and that this is not covered under something something (sorry I should have taken a screenshot of that page, it said something regarding not covered under Apple care and some consumer law stuff), and that I need to pay 129 CAD (+tax is 145 CAD).
So in total I paid 88+145=233 and waiting for the repair to complete.
Just curious if having apple care is worth it if we have to eventually pay this much for a repair?

P.S. - Apple support said Express replacement option is not available for my iPhone for some reason which even they couldn't tell why (at first they said the event the warranty is not showing up lol, which I believe they fixed on their end). I bought this iPhone in December 2025.

EDIT - Just concluded call with senior specialist and they confirmed that initial charge of 88 CAD will be reversed as they're now charging me 129+tax. Thanks everyone for your inputs.
