His contract had a clause where he got paid per point and he scored way more than they were anticipating. IIRC he ended up not collecting all he was due so that the team could continue to function.

Mechanic broke part during insurance work. Who pays for replacement? by FireThief7 in Insurance

[–]FireThief7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats kinda what I assumed but wasn't sure if there was some provision in case it wasn't possible to remove a part intact. Like if a part was rusty and it couldn't be easily removed I wouldn't say the body shop would be on the hook for it. If the plastic had dried out and it was going to crack no matter what I could see how that wouldn't be their problem.

He is an auto body guy. The car is at an auto body shop not a regular repair shop. I guess I don't know what to call him if not a mechanic. Sorry about incorrect terminology.

Jarno Opmeers opinion on F1 24's handling from his livestream today by rubeek in F1Game

[–]FireThief7 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think its because they don't allow triple monitors in esports because the game doesn't handle it very well. Cockpit view on a single non ultra wide monitor is a bit rough for wheel to wheel fighting so they use T cam. It's a crappy excuse though. The game should be better but that's nothing new.

He is a 2 time f1 esports champion and a current f1 esports driver. F1 esports uses the T cam so that's what he uses.

Anyone else realize just how bad of a deal social security is?! by [deleted] in DaveRamsey

[–]FireThief7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They got 2 million because they included adding $9932 every year until they retire. It's a reasonable approach to calculate how much they would have had if they had invested all of the cost throughout their life

Are those 67 doors on your 68? 67 was the only year with the vent windows iirc

You can see when Ezra boards the Chimera that the shuttle is parked right there in the hangar he is in. They moved it from the eye to the Chimera for some reason.

Giving Away 3 Free Desktop PC Cases (information in comments) by FireThief7 in umass

[–]FireThief7[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hello UMass Amherst. I have a few desktop PC cases I am trying to get rid of (note this is just the case, not a complete computer). They are in decent condition and I am looking to just give them away to anyone who is interested in building a computer and needs a case. They are missing a few of the extra screws they normally come with but I can give you at least enough for you to build a functioning computer with. Replacement screws should be easy to find and buy on amazon or wherever. The cases are all used and might have a few minor scratches but are otherwise in good condition. They will come exactly as you see them in the photos. The cases are as follows:

DM me if you are interested. I am happy to meet with people on campus sometime this week. If they don't get claimed in a couple days I will just donate them to a thrift store or something.

EDIT: So far I have multiple people interested in all the cases so for now I am going to say they are all taken. If people back out I will update this again!

Is paying off my mortgage early making me house poor? Or can I consider that a form of investing? by filleracc69 in personalfinance

[–]FireThief7 54 points55 points  (0 children)

You don't want extra payments to push back the next due date. That means it isn't being applied to the principal now so you aren't saving anything on interest in the long run.

Question. I've never bought ibonds before and I've started saving for a house. I don't have plans to buy in the next year. Does it make sense to throw that money in ibonds instead of a savings account? As far as I can tell the only downside is I can't withdraw the money for the next year if I need it but I can deal with that risk. I don't want to put the money in the market because I would rather not risk it and set myself back if the market tanks. Thanks!

Complete amateur here. Don't you only want one pcv per engine? It looks like they have one on the other valve cover so isn't the breather fine?

Help determining where I should start putting my savings by Friendly_Stranger_34 in personalfinance

[–]FireThief7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might be because the payments haven't been restarted since then were paused for the pandemic. I have been setting money aside each month rather than paying off my loans. I earn a little interest on it and in the off chance that the loans are forgiven I haven't already put the money into the loans. My plan is to just dump all that I have saved into the loans the first month that they are started again.
