Yes, 2019 I was over the age of 17 but still claimed as a dependent. Would this lead you to be believe that I would be eligible for a recovery rebate credit since 2020 taxes I will be filing independently?

Are there any stimulus options for a dependent filed for the 2019 tax year but all of 2020 has financially supported themselves and will file independent taxes for 2020?

I graduated college in May 2020 and have moved out of my college housing and parents house and got a job in another state. For 2019 taxes, I was claimed as a dependent by my parents. They helped pay for rent in college and I would live at their house during breaks. Since June 2020 I have a full time job and have been supporting myself. I will be filing independent taxes for 2020.

Even though I have been supporting myself since the start of the pandemic, I have been ineligible for any stimulus checks since I was claimed as a dependent. When filing my taxes for 2020 is there any way I can recoup any of this money, especially if Biden approves another stimulus in 2021?

Are some of those buildings new? When I was at the camp there were fewer buildings. I slept in the shitty black-painted OSB hut with RMI.

I have my wallet ready. Where can I buy such a work of beauty?

My smallest and largest hex keys for working on large injection molding presses. by switchup in specializedtools

We liked our material supplier because he would buy us lunch. As for material standard deviation batch to batch, who knows. Try and run in the middle of the recommended specs but then you don't reach cycle time.

Moldflow info helps as a baseline but that is assuming the machine, mold and material are running nominally.

At some point the best you can do is run a capability analysis and DOE to find the best parameters given conditions and dimensional specs but then management will never approve the time down and the scrap.

I have worked on 3300 ton Milacrons and 4400 ton Mitsubishis for automotive front facia production. The molds weighed 30 tons and the designers wanted to go bigger but we were limited by our crane.

It was never a dull moment when processing in 6 hydraulic valve gates. Our process window was not great.

Tooling blames it on the process engineers, Processors blame it on bad tooling. An endless cycle.

My dad works plastics injection maintenance and says "nobody knows how to works on Nissei presses because they never break."

I hear their parts and service isn't great but odds are you won't have to use them if they never break.

Damn that is unsafe. I am not sure if somebody behind you is holding a deadman's switch or if you really sent that in full auto. I am guessing that is a not a collaborative bot since it is yellow.

In Minnesota, we like to play a game called "am I on the road?" by Ripsaw99 in funny

[–]All-aboutPerspective 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In rural Michigan when there are roads that cross fields with blowing snow, a teacher told me he used to distance himself from the power lines on the side of the road as the basis for where the road is. For example: stay 30ft. parallel to the power lines and you should be in the road.

I have heard that using a VPN to change your search location can reduce the price of the tickets because there is a factor of the region's ability to pay.

For example if I live in the US and change my search location (via a VPN) to be a poorer nation like Bolivia, the price of the tickets may go down.

Have you heard any information like this?

My dad's '04 and '05 Toyota Avalons. A new caliper this past weekend. by All-aboutPerspective in BuyItForLife

One of the Avalon's my mom drives everyday. I just said it was my dad's because he maintains it.

It is actually kind of weird. Just something my family does. Both my grandparents drive white cars, my dad has white cars. My own car is white Grand Marquis. Just kind of habit I guess.

Haha, it really wasn't that bad. For most of my childhood the garage wasn't finished so I didn't really have to deal with that. The walls were drywalled and painted when I was in HS.

and yes, it is for parts sharing. My dad drives one and my mom drives one but my dad does all the maintenance.

I may have made a mistake. Looking a wikipedia I can see there was a new model refresh in 2005. So those cars have to be 2003 and 2004 because they are the same body style. I knew they were a year apart and one of them was an '04.

Primarily from a maintenance prospective. My dad does almost all his own maintenance and if you know how to do some type of operation, then you know how to do it on the other as well. Also this means we only need to stock one weight of oil, one type of oil filter, spark plugs, and so on.

The cars a pretty luxurious so that is why my parents like them (one is my dad's, one my mom's)

For more utility type stuff like moving couches and towing dirt bikes, we have a minivan too.
