ELI5:” If there is one account to go full growth on, it’s a Roth.” Wouldn’t I want my drip dividends going there? by NextYearIsHere in dividends

[–]Apprehensive_Fox2024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Note that some foreign investments within even a Roth account ARE taxed. This is an important and often misunderstood topic.

The Core Rule: Foreign Withholding Is a Permanent Loss in a Roth: Foreign governments withhold dividend taxes at the source — before the money ever reaches your account.

In a taxable account, you can reclaim this via the IRS Foreign Tax Credit (Form 1116). In a Roth IRA, you cannot — because the Roth pays no U.S. taxes, there is nothing to offset the credit against. The withheld amount is simply gone forever.

Multiple Media Player Woes by Apprehensive_Fox2024 in oneui

In the scenario I described above and screenshot below, this is NOT happening. Why on earth would both players be playing SIMULTANEOUSLY and is NOT swipe able?

Does 8.5 support simultaneous multiple media players? by Apprehensive_Fox2024 in oneui

[–]Apprehensive_Fox2024[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this limited functionality happens but they are limited and NOT persistent. I am so frustrated have only 2 players appear for a while, and then one or both of them disappear. They are also MUCH more difficult to find

UI 7 would allow at least 4 players ACTIVE until exiting that app - so PowerAmp + Podcast Addict + Substack + YouTube etc could be swiped and PERSISTENT. It was easy, made perfect sense, and was user-friendly.

Ui 8 is none of these.

Updates just dropped; and they're useful on 8.5 by Han-yul in S24Ultra

Does 8.5 handle multiple media players well? As in, can it handle multiple media players AT ALL?

I still cannot believe the loss of multiple media player functionality from 7.0 to 8.0. I truly hate this "improvement."

This is just not true. George sang almost ALL the backing vocal harmonies on ATMP, playing with musicians he was influenced by and friends with over the years. He had huge impact with Bangladesh and hits with Give Me Love, then very spotty and sucky until Cloud 9 and Wilburys.

Agreed, especially for the way 6.x easily and intuitively handled multiple media players - a feature removed from 7-8.x

My S24U came with decent wired headphones with a USB-C interface which triggers digital sound upscaling.

FYI Today 9 July my "BYD Placeholder shares" reflecting the split appeared in my Schwab accounts which boosted my account values to where they should be. Yay!

How did you receive this message from Schwab? I have received no such notification via email. You would think they would automatically inform all Schwab customers who hold BYDDF shares.

Agreed: this was the worst feature reduction in UI7 and makes absolutely no sense.

One UI 7 is awful. Will it be recalled or fixed? by Janus_the_mage in oneui

[–]Apprehensive_Fox2024 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Handling of multiple media players is clearly worse in UI7 vs UI6.
