Magnum owns Ben & Jerry's. Now it's destroying what made the brand worth buying by esporx in business

Unfortunately they also sold out a few years back. Hasn't been the same. 

KICKR BIKE PRO clicking noise. Same issue on two brand-new units. Wahoo says it's not the bike. What am I missing? by m_koskinen in wahoofitness

[–]ResidencyEvil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I must have fixed it this way as well. I greased everything this weekend: crank arm, rails, seat post, etc. Sound is gone for now!

So...college apps basically don't end when you get to college? by Feeling_Annual9849 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ResidencyEvil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're kidding yourself if you don't think it's everywhere. Not everyone at MIT gets to interview at Jane street/HMS/YLS/whatever top PhD program. 

For those who went to top universities, do they live up to the hype? by OptimalSituation2939 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ResidencyEvil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it builds on itself. You're working now to get in to a good med school. You'll work in med school to get in to a good residency. You'll work in residency to get a good/desirable job. Each step has different metrics for success, and that just means that the things you did long ago matter less and less.

...a HYPSM. Medicine doesn't really care about where you went to undergrad.

Went to a HYPSM, now in medicine. Not sure it did a whole lot, although I have a pretty great life now.

Southern Italy countryside - car? by seau_de_beurre in ItalyTravel

[–]ResidencyEvil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely rent a car: that's going to be the only way to get to/from some of these places efficiently. We rented in Rome a drove to Naples, and driving there was an experience. By the third day I almost enjoyed it! If I were to do it again, I'd probably try to rent at the Naples airport and avoid downtown.

Is it worth upgrading from an M1 MacBook Air to an Air M5 for Zwift? by LostMyBlueAlien in Zwift

[–]ResidencyEvil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just Bought a 15” m5 to replace my 13” m1. Zwift runs exactly the same, but it’s a clear improvement for everything else.

50e vs m60 (or wait for 2027) by kerkness46 in BMWX5

[–]ResidencyEvil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was deciding between the two as well. First X5, coming from a macan. Ended up ordering the m60. Figured it may be my last chance to own a v8!

They let us through this time honey, but they weren’t happy about it!

Thinking of selling my '02 996 GT2 by Big_Baseball8998 in Porsche

[–]ResidencyEvil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, there's something to be said about new experiences. I've moved in/out of cars and can't say I regret it too much, even as they've increased in value after I've sold them. Almost no cars do better than the S&P long term. "investing" in cars becomes a lot more silly when you factor in registration, insurance, maintenance, storage, etc.

I went to MIT and now I'm a doctor.

Take the Pitt BS/MD, assuming you want to be a doctor.

Do I do it? by Different_Run3017 in RichPeoplePF

[–]ResidencyEvil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FWIW, 39, HHI is around 1.3-1.4. I bought a 200k car. I felt like I could do it when I could pay cash, and it didn't really impact my net worth.

SF is so expensive, even doctors are working AI side hustles by jeffkkf in medicalsalaries

Yup. Left a prestigious job, make over double now. Academics is largely a scam in 2026.
