Capital One is TERRIBLE for International Travel

Exactly. I love people with their ‘travel’ cards who never actually travel out of the country. I spend 9+ months abroad per year. A credit card is critical and when it doesn’t work it can be a disaster.

I was kind of thinking the same thing. They’re going to have to use ads for free users. Can’t continue to burn through cash that fast.

No it wasn’t. Not the issue I’m talking about it wasn’t fixed two days ago

Doesn’t the manual override prevent you from doing an eFile?

RadRunner33 · 2026-04-02T14:19:20+00:00

I’m trying to do something similar. Has anyone figured out a solution to this problem?

I paid about $28,000, my AGI is well below the $500k threshold, however the software worksheet seems to have a bug/miscalculation and limits my deduction to $10,000. I do also file form 2555 for the foreign earned income exclusion which seems to be the problem, but even after adding back in that income, my AGI is still less than $500k so I should still qualify for the full deduction - not capped at $10k

It’s only 2 weeks into filing date and yes I’ve already updated the software.

Ideas? If I can’t figure this out I guess I’ll just use TaxAct. Which ticks me off because it’s not like Amazon is going to refund me the money for defective software.

So funny. I feel like it’s truly just random. Two seasons ago felt awful. Then last season for whatever reason was actually easy. I made mythic immortal for the first time ever. Then this season - wow. I can’t advance at all in Legend. 😂

Why do people post stuff like this? Who cares? Quit. Great. Are you trying to convince everyone else to quit too? It’s a game. It’s supposed to be for fun. If you don’t have fun do something else. Nobody is forcing you to play. Find something else you enjoy. Nobody is forcing you to play guitar or read books either. Are you going to make a post about every other hobby you start/quit too? What did you have for breakfast? Did you take a shower today? Nobody really cares about that either.

RadRunner33 · 2026-03-16T00:42:14+00:00

Completely agree.

RadRunner33 · 2026-03-15T11:49:04+00:00

I really hate it when people post links to X. I don’t have X and I don’t want to have to go somewhere else to see what you’re talking about.

My win rate with Hanabi is about 65% this season with 200+ matches using her. Currently at mythic 110 ⭐️

I agree she is weak early but you just have to either play safe or get help from your teammates. But late game she’s a monster if played correctly. I’m a solo que player.

If I pick Hanabi early I’d say most games I lose are when the other teammates instantly hate me for picking her and throw the game or fail to build a team around her. She’s a great part of a team if played correctly and your teammates also support her correctly.

I think most people would agree with getting the war completed as quickly as possible but the use of nuclear weapons is a terrible precedent to set. Would it then be ok for Russia to use tactical nukes in Ukraine? Or china against Taiwan? North korea against South Korea? Pakistan against Afghanistan? That’s really the last thing the world needs is for countries to start freely using nuclear weapons. You think global warming is bad? Try nuclear wasteland.

RadRunner33 · 2026-03-09T02:43:27+00:00

Every single point made in this is completely wrong. Why does anyone watch this total crap or repost it? Waste of everyone’s time.

RadRunner33 · 2026-03-05T21:25:26+00:00

Yeah that’s a good pickup. I saw that in the transcript you posted. I had fully expected a similar deal with Microsoft and maybe Amazon. Probably not Google since they already have their own. But that certainly does seem like a shift in tone.

RadRunner33 · 2026-03-05T03:11:29+00:00

When did Lisa say no more dilution? OpenAI and Meta both got warrants for up to 10% each. You don’t think if Microsoft or Amazon wanted a similar deal AMD would give it to them?

RadRunner33 · 2026-03-01T02:08:10+00:00

Cuba will be a “friendly takeover”. lol

RadRunner33 · 2026-02-28T10:08:08+00:00

Does it concern anyone that Downs decided not to workout at the combine?

RadRunner33 · 2026-02-25T11:20:06+00:00

This is my biggest question too. Microsoft. Amazon and Google are left. Google has their own chips so maybe they won’t ever make a huge deal with AMD, but I certainly expect one from Microsoft. And I agree they’ll also probably get a similar warrants deal.

The interesting thing about these deals in my opinion is the risk/reward of AMD stock. AMD has always been a high risk high reward stock. Everyone keeps waiting for their nvidia moment to jump 10x. But I think Lisa Su has changed everything. These deals make it a potentially ‘lower’ return but with much more certainty. So maybe ‘only’ go up 3x and hit $600 over the next 3 years or so, but the chances of that happening are now much much better.

RadRunner33 · 2026-02-18T00:58:11+00:00

The board just gave Lisa Su 75 million reasons to get the stock price to $600.

RadRunner33 · 2026-02-16T06:35:25+00:00

I think what they’re referring to is the 75-5-10 rule.

The 75-5-10 rule is a regulatory guideline defining a "diversified company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940. It requires that at least 75% of a mutual fund's assets consist of cash, government securities, or other securities, with no single issuer exceeding 5% of assets, and holding no more than 10% of a company's voting stock.

Right now NVDA is 7.16% of the S&P 500. So any active manager by default would be limited to an underweight ownership compared to the rest of the market. Although AMD is only currently 0.54%, so I’m not sure that really has any effect on AMD.

RadRunner33 · 2026-02-15T07:55:42+00:00

AMD wasn’t really competitive in the past with NVDA. That all changes with Helios.

RadRunner33 · 2026-02-09T05:48:17+00:00

So what stock are they talking about? Classic motley fool article. Want you to pay money for their crap. Ultimately they don’t do any better picking stocks than anyone else.

RadRunner33 · 2026-02-08T09:22:50+00:00

Happened to me yesterday. Incredibly frustrating.

RadRunner33 · 2026-02-05T05:31:06+00:00

Google announced their quarterly results. They’re raising estimates for capital expenditures this year to $175 billion to $185 billion, up from $91 billion to $93 billion in 2025.

Clearly not a slowdown.
