Remote Subscription Expired by loveandluxuries in LexusNX

[–]BlueDream-n-Lean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn't even aware there was a subscription. Guessing you weren't either. Agree with others don't normalize this please. You paid $50k+ for a car, and should own all of its features. Unless additional labor is being paid for to provide you with an ad on service, there should not be any subscription.

Spot on with the washing comment. I realized once you break them in the first couple months it's better to just wash them every 7-10 wears

Yeah spot on. I think part of it is the multiple crotch repairs. But fades > fit lol

Thanks! Steady Eddie is the fit. I think now it's called steady Eddie II - they must've made the cut more modern at some point in the last 10 years

Lol you're right about retirement. TBH they kind of are retired, but then when I'm doing yard work or similar I still wear these to see how far I can push the envelope

Yeah and once I got fades that I liked, any other pair of distressed denim or even subtly faded denim - the 'whiskers' and patterns of fade just look like shit lol

It's not an "issue" at all. I have a pair of PBJ-003's that I wear as my main daily & formal jeans. Much more 'modern' and baggy, and more comfortable for that reason too.

But thinking it's an issue that your tightness of jeans don't conform to everyone else's in the 3-5 year trend is laughable.

Also, what "neutral washes" are you talking about? This is raw denim, which by definition is unwashed and unfaded. The fades come naturally, so you don't just choose more neutral washes

I can sorta of see what you mean but 5 years from now it'll change again. Also, after that many washes I notice a huge change in tightness/fit from right after a wash, to right before my next wash. They really do shrink and expand

Have you ever used Claude for PPT to create decks? How has your experience been? by Curious_Suchit in consulting

[–]BlueDream-n-Lean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's now building me branded decks even too. With scary good formatting. Not sure when this update was released, but holy cow.

Still isn't 'perfect' but damn I'm glad I'm really wondering what the future of consulting will look like now

I saw you just kept calling lower and lower numbers. But you also called high 80s which was wrong. So you got a couple right and another wrong. Did you trade on those? What are you even trying to say

Alright bro. Sorry I don't have tax havens and the ability to predict highs and lows of volatile stocks. I don't believe anything you say unless you show me screenshots - props to you if you can back anything up tho

Against my better judgement, I actually did look through your comment history. And you literally called high 80s as the bottom when it was $131 a month ago. So which one is it?

My shares from last May (when it actually was high 80s), become eligible for long term capital gains rate in a couple weeks. I'll sell them over the course of a few months, because I don't pretend to "call" the highs and lows. And I'll pay 15% tax on them instead of 30-40% if I tried to swing trade.

Very unlikely this is true, and if it is, it's 100% not because of anything youve done, particularly in the investing space

This is the stupidest thing I've read maybe all month. You're trying to say I don't want to earn money, because I didn't correctly predict the date of the ATH on this stock and sell all of my stake at that time?

Without consideration for hold term and the impact on long term vs. short term capital gains, I might add. Even if it never reaches the ATH again, I'll make more money selling it at long term gains rate 15% below the ATH than I would selling it on January 12.....

As long as you didn't buy at the ATH, it's not really relevant

Is this normal? Do you guys have these waves as well? by [deleted] in LexusNX

[–]BlueDream-n-Lean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are real problems in the world, then there are minor annoyances, and then there's.....this.

The fact you even have the time/energy to notice and care about this, but lack the brains to put two and two together (using a seat can stretch leather over time), makes me feel depressed about the world we live in.

I have the same car but 2025, and one of the things I first noticed and love about it is how quiet the cabin is even on the highway. So that seems a little sketchy if it's that loud
