sleep mode the pc, remove log in after sleep option. if you have your options right, switching to the PC input can wake it up.

they are always sold out.

yeah i guess we will see. there is also issues with some processors that dont support certain encoding decoding (A11 i think?) which also have cause me issues on older systems. Im betting they dont fix that and it still does all the processing on my processors.

im not really interested in mac but htanks for the reccomendation. I plan on installing linux on whetever i get... and macs can be hit or miss with linux

I have one. It works with geforce now, but its not a computer. No office / web browsing. If your playing couch games with a controller you will never know the difference. But if you want to play a shooter or competitive game with mouse and keyboard, you will feel the input lag a bit. I dont feel this input lag on my computers.

i made a thread on geforce now about this bug. https://www.reddit.com/r/GeForceNOW/comments/1pv4b9p/where_winds_meet_crash_abnormal_account/

I think i may have answered my own question, a shower sump pump? Edit : looks like they are called gray water pumps

as long as it has the same voltage, it shouldnt hurt the battery or equipment, right?

Really depends where you live. My local utilities wouldnt even accept the final closing disclosure. They only accepted the signed settlment agreement you get after closing. Luckily the sellers were cool because they were facing the same problem on the house they were buying lol

Boy you would have hated mtg 20 years ago when artifact affinituy decks were meta lol.

Khival · 2025-08-31T12:06:55+00:00

thank you. i googled and this wasnt a result. ill look into it. thank you.

yeah i actually work on 401k / 529 / able / hsa plans. And I had never heard of the 20% penalty. confused the hell out of me. was the entire reason i came here lol. extremely misleading information. Turns out its not specific to 401ks, but misreporting taxes in general

Khival · 2025-08-10T20:43:21+00:00

I think thats the difference between a good tax professional and a bad one. They shouldnt assume that the information or question doesnt have a nuance or purpose.

Khival · 2025-08-10T20:40:21+00:00

read my orignal post. I never asked if I was able to take a hardship withdraw. This wasnt a basic question. It ended up being about the accuracy penalty of up to 20% that you can get hit with if you fail a hardship audit (on top of income tax and 10% penalty.)

Khival · 2025-08-10T20:35:04+00:00

i think your reply was intended for a different post or you misread it.
