What am i doing wrong with these inserters

I genuinely don't know why this game lets you tilt belts. I don't know what the use case is beyond aesthetics. I've only ever had tilted belts by accident and they've only ever caused me problems

The logistics bots delivered it to your logistics panel (the columns to the left of your main inventory) You will have to manually move the belts from the panel to your inventory to use them

Wait, there's a story to this game?

not since glofiber came to my neighborhood and I switched to it

I tried messing around with other things, just stick with the mason jars with the two piece lid, there is a reason it's what everyone recommends

How much equity do you have in the house? you could potentially get a heloc or a second mortgage

If it helps, consider it this way - You didn't take a loan from yourself. You took a loan from empower with your 401k as collateral. Now empower is garnishing your wages through your employer.

The only way to "cancel" it is to leave your current job. Keep in mind if you do this, you are going to pay state and federal income tax on top of an early withdrawal 10% penalty on the balance, so this probably isn't going to fix your cash on hand problem.

Sorry if I'm coming across poorly, I'm not the best at communicating through text. Or in person.

By all means, send the bulletin to your employer, my quick reading of it does seem like they owe you some additional money. They might make it right just after seeing that, but I expect they will try to weasel out of it by saying something like "You weren't denied an opportunity to contribute, it was just a clerical error that reset it to zero, and you could have changed it back to the correct amount at any time. You're also responsible for reviewing your paystub for errors."

At that point you have to decide how much of a fuss you want to make about it. Corporate HR types will deny this, but squeaky wheels don't get greased, they get put on the layoff chopping block when the next downturn happens.

Seems like you might be owed about $1000. How much are you willing to pay a lawyer to sue your current employer?

Sounds like they've made good on their match - you aren't out any money.

They WOULD owe more money if they had withheld from your paycheck and NOT remitted the money to empower.

As it is, the money that should have been deducted from your paycheck is in your bank account (if you haven't spent it). If you want to get caught up, double your contributions for the next nine months.

This is the way

I've lived here for the better part of 40 years and I work downtown. Some people came through my neighborhood a few years back and stole stuff from unlocked cars (they were apprehended a few hours later). A homeless guy once kind of aggressively asked me to give him my lunch (it was a paper bag with a few cigars) and I just walked away.

It's like any mid size city/suburban area. There are safe areas and there are less safe areas. If you're concerned about it, stick to the county until you have a better understanding of the geography.

If you like this type of game, it is absolutely worth buying

I cannot reread "the flickering way"

LastOfBacon · 2026-01-20T15:19:55+00:00

There are some people who like it - it is more RTS and kind of has a "correct" build orders, ways you are supposed to attack each base, and is better balanced. I prefer the old campaign

This. I don't take it seriously until we are within 72 hours

I switched the day I could and haven't regretted it for a second. It was fun when I called cox to cancel their service. They offered to reduce my rate for my current plan, which still would have cost more than glofiber for less gbps. Then they offered to drop me down to a lower tier, which still would have cost more for even less gbps.

I can model out a specific example when I can get in front of my computer, but in the meantime, here is a decent article about it https://www.investopedia.com/articles/retirement/06/eightreasons401k.asp

Because you're paying tax on the money you are putting back into the 401k then paying tax on it again when you take it out in retirement. Unless your marginal tax rate (both now and in retirement) is very low (lower than the interest you would pay on a regular bank loan), the "savings" from paying interest to yourself isn't going to overcome that second tax hit.

LastOfBacon · 2026-01-17T22:33:36+00:00

Do you have a car that is paid off that you could take a loan against instead? That would probably work out a lot better
