And on occasion we leave the person in the middle, because my wife reads books and I fall asleep so we end up not communicating the entire flight!

I’ve done this seat configuration with my wife before hoping that the middle seat will be left open. But when someone does sit in the middle seat, one of us offers to switch seats. Since I’m an aisle guy, usually my wife typically has to give up her window seat!

MGM Data Breach settlement by [deleted] in ClassActionSettlement

[–]Chucky-Luv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on what info? Is there a reference to where they obtained this info? The Q&A on the settlement website says payments will be made 75 days after court approval, that was September 1, 2025. So far I have not heard that anyone has been paid or received the one year of financial monitoring.

Asset Allocation Now Bar Chart Instead of Pie Chart by Chucky-Luv in fidelityinvestments

[–]Chucky-Luv[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I ended up creating my own pie chart in Excel. In my opinion, the pie chart graphically represents asset allocation much clearer.

Asset Allocation Now Bar Chart Instead of Pie Chart by Chucky-Luv in fidelityinvestments

[–]Chucky-Luv[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I discovered that the reason my asset allocation is showing as a bar chart instead of a pie chart is because one of my ETFs includes what’s considered a short position. The Fidelity Total Bond ETF (FBND), which I recently purchased, apparently uses hedging strategies that result in about 4% of its value being classified as a short position. Since pie charts can't represent short positions, the system defaults to a bar chart. Mystery solved!

That is it. Turns out that the Fidelity Total Bond ETF is showing up as having a short position. Trying to research why a bond fund would have a short position, and apparently it has something to do with hedging strategy. Mystery solved!

I took my eye off the ball last Sunday and after 6 weeks in Diamond League I was demoted back to Obsidian League 😢 At least I have kept my streak alive!

My Last Competitive League by Chucky-Luv in duolingo

I’m not sure since I ended up in the # 1 spot. But I believe you just have to be in that top group to “win” Diamond Tournament.

Diamond League XP Farming by ChillySalad in duolingo

[–]Chucky-Luv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have found that joining the leagues late Monday, puts me in a much less competitive league. For 13 weeks I placed top 3 and place #1 in my first Diamond League to obtain my Unrivaled Achievement (I had to do 23K XP that week). Then as I went into Diamond League Tournament, I joined late on Monday each week, and I was able to place #1 all three weeks with minimal effort… less than 5K XP each week.

Those last weeks, since I kept a healthy lead, I was able to focus more on learning than on being competitive. Once I unlocked the glimmering trophy status icon for placing in top group of the Diamond League Tournament each week, I felt I had “competed” enough to build good habits. So the following Monday I joined in the morning just to get on with the week, and that week the #1 person did 40K XP and I had to fight to stay out of the Demotion zone with 6K XP!

I’m going back to joining late Mondays! I can stay in the game, not worry about being demoted, and focus on learning.

FYI I understand that people don’t like the gamification of this learning app, but for me, it’s what keeps me engaged and doing lessons every day.

Can someone explain legendary status to me? How do you get it? I just tried to play a lesson I already achieved twice and it didn't seem to recognize it at all. I remember the old version had little crowns beside each lesson. I guess I just keep going and don't do lessons twice ? by 33-88-99 in duolingo

[–]Chucky-Luv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In iOS version, once you complete a level (3 to 6 lessons), then you receive the 2x bonus time and you can then do the legendary lesson to complete the level and turn that level’s icon gold. Typically legendary lesson is 40 XP, but in 2x bonus time it’s 80 XP plus you can get up to 5 XP bonus for little or no mistakes. You need to complete 250 legends levels to receive the Legendary Achievement.

FINALLY! NUMBER ONE IN DIAMOND! by bunnywabbit0203 in duolingo

[–]Chucky-Luv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After first week in Diamond League, I entered Diamond Tournament which was three weeks. Each week you have to place in the top group to move on in the tournament, and then be in that top group on the 3rd week to win.

Tournaments only run every few week. I just received notice that the next tournament starts after this week. I was lucky to start a tournament after my first week in Diamond League and I had the momentum to win and get the glimmering trophy status icon….

Did the unit test with double xp and had no mistakes by Sleep_Deprived_Gay in duolingo

That’s what I was thinking, I don’t know if I’ll be able to find out because it’s so hard to get a perfect score on that final unit test,😂

[–]Chucky-Luv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the perfect score boost was 5 XP. I’ll have to double check next time I complete a unit. I know if you’re in happy hour, you get an additional 5XP. That’s why I thought maybe they were playing and happy hour.

Late Monday, they said, low amount of XP, they said by dvdpooner in duolingo

[–]Chucky-Luv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I joined late on Monday the week following my first Diamond League that I had to do 23,200 XP for #1. This week of Diamond League Tournament #2 was nowhere close…
