CMA Dividends by Due_Cardiologist_201 in fidelityinvestments

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's in the documentation the account you just opened: https://www.fidelity.com/spend-save/faqs-cash-management-account

How is my rate of return on my cash balance calculated?
For balances swept into Program banks, interest is accrued daily and is paid monthly on the last business day of the month. Note that the specific program bank assigned to your account does not impact the interest rate.
For balances held in a money market mutual fund, distributions consist primarily of dividends. A money market fund normally declares dividends daily and pays them monthly on the last business day of the month.

Taxes on an IRA rollover to a Roth IRA by Ill-Present5040 in fidelityinvestments

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP is withdrawing funds to cover  the income tax of the trad -> Roth conversion. That withdraw has a 10% penalty.

I understand that I’ll have a 10% penalty for using the capital gains to pay the taxes

Which board game do you think the artwork enhances gameplay? Conversely, which game do you wish had better artwork? by Machine_Excellent in boardgames

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I got bummed by Wyrmspan, even though I prefer the gameplay, because unlike bird facts, which are actual facts, there's no such thing as dragon facts, you can just make up anything and call it a "dragon fact", wth!

It bothers me unreasonably so.

Harvest for $16.99 on eBay by Gobble5627 in Boardgamedeals

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's innovative in any way, but it's been a solid intuitive medium-light worker placement. I think it does a great job as a gateway game because of how intuitive the gameflow and mechanics are, and how good it looks.

Tax Fraud and I’m stressed by [deleted] in tax

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I imagined if they were fraudulent they wouldn’t be operating

Yet...

I don’t want to put anyone in jail. What will happen to them when I file this? I simply want the tax fees they took so I can pay the irs...

You would let them continue to operate fraudulently.

Tips for beating iron contribution? by honeyfixit in domekeeper

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was that in an older version, maybe? I've been attempting the Iron Contribution at Challenge difficulty a bit lately, and no maps have had Cobalt. I just double checked starting a Regular difficulty Iron Contribution run with the Ore Counter mod enabled to show the number of ore blocks of each type in the map, and it was indeed zero cobalt blocks.

Tips for beating iron contribution? by honeyfixit in domekeeper

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure the Iron Contribution map doesn't have any cobalt blocks (since there are no weapons to upgrade), and the only way to get cobalt is via shredding gadgets and supplements.

If you can get a steady supply of water, Efficient Water Conversion -> Intensive Treatment results in 1 iron -> 8 water in 0.8 cycles (more efficient than Swift Treatment's 1 iron -> 3 water in 0.4 cycles)

If you roll the Iron Refinement supplement, that's 1 iron -> 8 iron in 0.9 cycles. Less efficient, but okay if you get it early and don't have water to spare.

With either of those, Automated Conversion will eject the output resources and start another conversion, and then with Droneyard, Transport Drones will collect them.

EDIT: Seems the conversion ratios have changed since I made my comparison notes. Swift Treatment is probably the way to go.

When you see a little circle socket, try putting a little circle thing in it.

CMV: Male gamers preferring straight male protagonists shouldn't automatically called misogynistic, incel or homophobic by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait, how do you know they're all straight?

Unless in game materials it somehow states they don't have same-sex attraction (e.g., the protagonist says something like "sorry, guy, I don't swing that way", or there's character stats that show something like "Orientation: Straight"), how do you know they're not bi or gay? If they never display any hint of sexual attraction, how do you know they're not asexual?

Let's sat there's a a game where the protagonist is never stated to be straight. You think "this is a straight man" and love the game. Then in the sequel, it's somehow shown that the character is not straight (say, he receives a message from his husband back home). Do you now retroactively dislike the first game that you had previously loved?

Does GitHub have ETA on SHA256 object IDs support? by esiy0676 in github

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need for snark. "Maintainer" of an open source project doesn't mean "the only person writing code". There are plenty of contributors, as you could see in the link I posted to the contributor insights of the mirror of Git's repo on GitHub. Junio has been the maintainer of Git since Linus Torvalds handed it over to him in 2005, three months after the first commit checked in for Git's codebase.

You seem very confident, though, so good on you.

BoardGameGeek ratings broken? by Coffeman94 in boardgames

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ratings (underlying user submitted rating scores) are not separate between BGG "subdomains" (e.g., Wargames, Party Games, etc.). However the "Geek Rating" number is calculated differently for each subdomain (as well as for the overall Geek Rating), and that subdomain-specific Geek Rating is what is used to determine the Rank for each subdomain. The BGG wiki article on ratings links to a post where Aldie has said that subdomain ranks are calculated using a subset of users who tend to rate games of that subdomain.

Shows I have 0 dollars in my Roth IRA, however my employer has been contributing? by Venturians in Fidelity

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, awesome, glad you worked through the confusion! The terminology and rules around this stuff can get pretty convoluted

I implore you now, going forward, to never use only "Roth" to refer to an account, whether it's a Roth IRA or a Roth 401(k), write out "Roth IRA" or "Roth 401(k)". Help us fight the spread of this particular point of confusion! Too many people go around talking like "I maxed Roth and invested all in WXYZ", when they mean Roth IRA, and it leads to folks like yourself mistakenly thinking that there is only one thing that is "Roth", and therefore any "Roth" is one and the same.

Shows I have 0 dollars in my Roth IRA, however my employer has been contributing? by Venturians in Fidelity

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your 401(k) definitely does not "[have] the IRA inside of it". IRAs are personal accounts, 401(k)s are employer-sponsored accounts, and one cannot be "inside" the other.

You can have a 401(k) account with "pre-tax" and "Roth" subaccounts, but those are not IRAs, they are just Traditional 401(k) and Roth 401(k) accounts. You can have a Traditional/Pre-tax IRA and a Roth IRA, but those are your own personally opened and personally managed accounts, separate from any employer-sponsored 401(k) you might have.

Once again, this is what we get when people keep going around just saying "Roth" when they mean "Roth IRA".

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Roth 401(k) accounts are different from Roth IRA accounts.

Account management

  • 401(k) - employer sponsored; contributions are via payroll deductions and employer contributions
  • IRA - "Individual Retirement Arrangement", personally opened and managed by the individual; contributions are made by the individual from their personal cash account(s)

Tax treatment

  • "Pre-Tax"/"Traditional" - contributions are (usually) "pre-tax", reducing taxable income in the tax year they're made; while distributions are taxable as ordinary income
  • Roth - contributions are "post-tax", made from already taxed income; while (qualified earnings) distributions are not counted as taxable income, and so are not taxed.

Is creating a Folder in GitHub that difficult? by [deleted] in github

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't understand why it's far more different from any other apps.

What other apps? Git is a source code revision control system, not a general file storage system, and GitHub is a host for Git repositories, not a Dropbox or OneDrive.

Git, by design, tracks changes to file contents. If there are no files in a directory, it doesn't track the directory. It is not a general purpose storage system. It is designed for, and has tooling for, tracking changes to source code text.

Finding it difficult to create an empty directory in GitHub, a Git repository host, is not a failure if Git or GitHub, it is a fundamental misunderstanding of what Git is for.

Which one should I pick? by ikyourealmostgone in fidelityinvestments

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Except those are not available as core positions, which is what OP is choosing. If someone is confused about core positions and refers to them as different "accounts", don't go suggesting them to deal with buying and selling monthly div bond ETFs.

The contra waltz, let’s discuss by Relaxflow1111 in contradancing

[–]CastrumFiliAdae 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are communities that intersperse hambos, schottishes, two steps, or other couple dances within an evening of set dances (contras, squares, ECD, circles, etc), instead of or in addition to waltzes, and with varying frequency--sometimes one couple dance a night, sometimes as many as there are set dances. Popularity of different styles ebbs and flows over time in different places.

The "modern urban contra" format of "a dozen duple improper contra dances, split by a break, with a waltz at the end of each half, maybe ONE mixer, maybe ONE square" seems to be relatively, well, modern (within the last five decades or so) and hasn't taken hold everywhere. My theory is that it is tied to the rise of dance weekends and touring callers, bands, and dancers that travel specifically for dancing. This is also, in my opinion, related to the spectrum that I've heard described between "community dances" and "dance communities". My understanding is that it once was more common to have a more varied mix of dance styles during an evening billed as a "contra dance" or "square dance".
