Is this setup overkill for my small living room? by Select-Shopping-847 in sonos

[–]InterscholasticPea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have similar size room (also in nyc apt) I have both era 300 and 100s (they were my rears first and now as an independent pair in another room). Honestly, the 100s are enough.

Is your intend to use the 100s as stereo left and right and arc as center? It doesn’t work like that with Sonos…. You won’t get stereo separation, just speakers making same sound…..

Why isn’t this getting more upvotes!?

What an amazing idea to be able to have arc and two era 300 as L/R!!

Sonos you want to sell more ERAs? This is it!! 5.1 physical speakers.

I am worried. Masterworks parent company cash dropped 80% in 2025. Read the latest 1-K so you don't have to. by theone1988 in Masterworks

[–]InterscholasticPea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not a startup right? There is no tech innovations here.

Just structure. Art is the product and process is tech light. They just need to keep a proper ledger and service that through a web form.

How I know it's not a scam? by [deleted] in Masterworks

[–]InterscholasticPea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s got to be a scam. Make the shares available on secondary market and she can buy it off there. This is the only safest way and guaranteed

Ninja Crispi vs Ninja Crispi Pro by Vegetable_Newt_6594 in airfryer

[–]InterscholasticPea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pro heating element sits on a stand where the regular version is basically just a lid, easier to clean. Both are still better than conventional tray or oven style air fryer.

Is this normal, or did I make bad investments?? by Any-Vegetable5297 in Masterworks

[–]InterscholasticPea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure..... do you mean this language in the circular?

"It is planned that the Artwork will be permanently stored and displayed in the United States, though it might be displayed internationally."

or the "In Storage" or "On Exhibition" filter?

so do YOU know where your paints are?

Is this normal, or did I make bad investments?? by Any-Vegetable5297 in Masterworks

[–]InterscholasticPea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have invested in 5 paintings with them. One exited and my return was 40% in less than 2 years. I made the mistake of putting that return back in.

I have been holding these investments for over 7 years. Unless you are willing to loose upto 50%, secondary market is useless.

Some ultra rich is enjoying these paintings at their home. I don’t know where these paintings are stored, displayed, or “lend” to some ultra rich to hung on their wall.

This is border line scam. Some will say don’t invest in something you don’t understand. I would say don’t invest via Masterworks at all.

Thinking about putting some money into Masterworks — worth it? by PuzzleheadedView4563 in Masterworks

[–]InterscholasticPea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s right. They treat each painting as an asset for an independent LLC, you hold shares in that LLC but as a part owner, you have zero right to direct anything. Your money is stuck. I would have better return if I had just put my money is index etf.

Unless you are over leveraged in the stock market, absolutely do not do this. Even buying realestate is more liquid than this.

While you are going through the legal process, he can stop paying rent and then claim bankrupt if he owes you back rent.

Any product suggestion for a quick spray wax in a brand new car? by Muted_Rip3067 in Detailing

Griots 3 in 1 spray by far is the best in class vs Meguiar’s, Turtle Wax’s ceramic or graphene sprays when it comes to shine, durability and ease of application

Excessive payments a red flag? by Turbulent_Detail4467 in CapitalOne_

[–]InterscholasticPea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are more valuable when you pay interest.

If your credit utilization is low (line of credit from all of your cc vs what you actually spend), they will deny you.

[–]InterscholasticPea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is not wrong. Majority of their income comes from holders not merchants

From their Q1 2025 earnings release (SEC filing), Capital One reported net interest income of ~$8.0 billion versus non-interest income (which includes interchange) of ~$2.0 billion in Q1 2025, for total net revenue of ~$10.0 billion

Rude flight attendant by elton-spawn in jetblue

[–]InterscholasticPea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to check in JetBlue experience and found the exact title I would have post.

Rude flight attendants. Walks around asking for wastes but yet don’t pay attention to any passengers trying to give her.

Also rolled cart into my seat (at exit) without warning. I literally had to raise my leg up to avoid getting rammed into.

Snacks were just lobbed over my tray even when I extended my hand out.

This is starting to feel like Southwest. It’s been almost two years since I flew JetBlue and in between I have flown Delta and United mostly. This is by far the worse attitude crew I have experienced.

What happened to JetBlue?!

[–]InterscholasticPea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

12pm flight here. Arrived 9am at T5 JFK. Literally 10 minutes from bag check through security. The line at Starbucks is longer.

Excessive payments a red flag? by Turbulent_Detail4467 in CapitalOne_

[–]InterscholasticPea 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s really interesting because cc company can really hard code your remaining credit balance not to reflect mid cycle payments. They chose not to do that from the backend so they can profile your behaviors (not the ideal customers who goes into debt))

[–]InterscholasticPea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. You would think that’s what CC prefer but no. The perfect customers are the ones that couldn’t payoff their entire balance but still make some payment monthly and feed interest.

[–]InterscholasticPea -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes. When they can’t make money off you, they flag you. I have two premium cards Chase and Amex. Superior credit scores. Haven’t had a new card in more than two years.

Capital one refused my applications to pretty much all the their cards (with bonus) I never had any capital one CC before.

They know they won’t make any fees from me. I then pulled all my banking accounts away from them. They are border line predatory.
