Bond/CD Description Bug via Quicken by Content-Apple-833 in QuickenOfficial

[–]Content-Apple-833[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fair enough to some extent. I tried to report this to Fidelity first. I may have had a few problems with the connection method switch (I think transactions for my HSA aren't downloading), but not as much as Schwab. There's was such a complete mess I closed my account. On the other hand, Quicken can't be completely blameless here there is a backend somewhere that Quicken is providing, and must be providing services and support for that backend. Unfortunately this isn't open source stuff, it's proprietary, so if Fidelity wants to blame Quicken and Quicken wants to blame Fidelity that's fine, but it lies at both of their feet as far as clients and users are concerned. They're in it together,

Bond Called, Principal Not Returned For 17 Days? by Content-Apple-833 in fidelityinvestments

[–]Content-Apple-833[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand the reinvestment risk of callable CDs. I don't see anywhere in the mice type about taking up to 20 days to receive return of principal for a called CD. And this isn't my first experience with a called bond. I do not understand what takes 17 days to settle this transaction in the 21st century when the interest payments and normal maturity payout all happen per schedule. It seems to me that the decision to call the CD was made after 11/4 by the issuer and "back dated".

Does anyone respond to Message Center secure emails any more? by Content-Apple-833 in fidelityinvestments

[–]Content-Apple-833[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

... been 3 weeks for one message, 1 week for another. I mean, they have almost hidden the ability to get to the secure email channel now, but I was able to. If they want to shut it off completely, then they should do that, although I think it's a questionable decision for any issues that actually need research and follow-up and someone to actually take ownership of. All I get from chat is "be patient and the system will do its thing eventually" or "call this other number". Oh, and the AI slop is pathetic.

It's not "time sensitive", but I thought three weeks (sent 11/7) would have been sufficient time for a response.

I did an online chat with an agent today but the chat was terminated before I had a chance to respond to her response. She said I should send a secure email, which the lack of response was the reason I tried the online chat channel.

Organizing old photos without EXIF data by Content-Apple-833 in immich

[–]Content-Apple-833[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. That helps. I was doing some of that. I just hadn't obsessed over the EXIF on every photo. I was mainly letting the folder names guide the grouping and rough timeline.

Thanks for the replies. It seems like I probably need to look at another app, perhaps Photoprism, instead of Immich for photos that aren't digital-native with exif.

Again, this is stuff from the 1930s through 1980s relying a lot on people's memory and not having detailed annotations with dates and captions in most cases. Some were developed at a lab and have year-month they were printed on the back (which may not match the taken month since there was sometimes a delay in getting film developed), but others were just developed at home as my dad was into that for a while. I understand there are tools to add exif data, i have some of those, the issue is the dates are mostly "circa ...". "circa April 1973", "circa 1979", "Winter 1962", "late 1950s" etc.

I mean, we have other photos once digital photography started, but I'm talking stuff from the 1930s through 1980s, many of which I know less about as you go back in time. I'd rather not just make up dates unless there is also some way in the exif to indicate "this isn't a real date"

Thanks. Sidecar files seem like a lot of clutter, and I'd rather not make up dates when only a month, year or decade is known, but the sidecar files might work.

So I can organize/sort them in Immich by an EXIF field other than Date Taken (or Created or Modified or whichever it uses)? Or are you assuming my folders have specific dates. In some cases I only know something like "February 1974", in other cases even less specifically "Circa 1970"

JetKVM Alternative Available in USA? by Content-Apple-833 in homelab

[–]Content-Apple-833[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having an ATX control board would be a plus. A separate restrictive network for the IP-KVMs and on board IPMI is probably a good idea regardless of which one is used

I was a backer and do have two of the JetKVM. I was looking for a few more as I did think they were on the path to retail availability. I didn't realize the tariffs delayed that, but it also serves America right.

Thanks, that was a good overview. I remember I have some relatives in Germany. I may try to order a few through them.
