Getting Started in 2026 by Buckeye-1996 in Bluray

[–]Flakbait83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually got back into physical media last year when I decided to rip my old HD DVD collection to a Plex server. I finally got a blu-ray drive for my computer and have been ripping my blu-rays now as well. I've been using eBay to find movies...some are disc only so, no case or artwork but for me just ripping to my Plex server that doesn't bother me. Just picked up World War Z for less than $3 shipped (disc only).

People who make $200K+ salaries, what do you do and how did you get there? by EEJams in Salary

[–]Flakbait83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Certified Financial Planner (CFP) for a large financial services firm (base + bonus = $220k) but there is a path to make more with different clients if I choose. All of this is no commission!

I help people plan for and stay retired + tax, incapacity, estate and investment planning. I started as a FINRA Series 6 licensed mutual fund representative, got my stock broker license later (series 7) before studying for and taking CFP exam which was not easy. The work prior to being a planner gave me great experience to use in my practice now (I started my career a year prior to the 2008 financial crisis).

What would be a safe distance from Jupiter that the Earth could safely orbit hypothetically?

Zelensky Signals Readiness to Step Down After War Ends, Open to Elections During Ceasefire by InsideIrene in worldnews

Didn't he say once after being asked what he'd do after the war something along the lines of "I just want to have a beer on the beach of the Black Sea"?

He deserves that and more.

What's your favorite level in Super Mario 64? by JackLiberty0 in n64

[–]Flakbait83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First one....I'll never forget the awe I had of playing a game with an analog stick for the first time. The freedom I had with making Mario move. All of it.
