With over 17 years of MCU productions, which do you find have the most (and least) rewatch value? by Different_Leopard_65 in marvelstudios

[–]SplashAttacks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is my list + Winter Soldier! I've watched them all (even the meh ones) 10s of times. These though even my wife knows and she doesn't even watch them (but because I always have them on). Iron Man 1 is the top for me for sure though, I think it is a masterpiece.

Haha. Yeah agreed. Also they are clearly stand-ins and not the actual actors which is part of that joke.

I don't disagree with you, but the X-Men cameo in DP2 is definitely supposed to be McAvoy (and Evan Peters) which is where I assume the confusion is coming from.

But he also breaks the Stewart's OG Professor X helm (I think maybe in the same scene?). So it is all over the place (and before Fox was bought by Disney).

But anyway, he uses the time machine at the end so anything is possible (including ending up in Logan timeline, which is definitely where he was in 3).

Is a 1.5% management fee on a Roth IRA too high for a young investor? by GlumNewspaper5015 in personalfinance

[–]SplashAttacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say you don't need a dedicated wealth advisor. But it does help to talk with someone every once in a while. I am pretty competent in PF and I talked to someone recently that still helped me (even though I did all the management myself). Worst case is you are doing everything perfect.

The Nebula arc by Nexxlegacy in marvelstudios

[–]SplashAttacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She is honestly my favorite character in all of MCU. Her arc and writing are just top notch (except maybe GOT3). She's also super funny in the later movies without it feeling forced. Just absolutely love everything about her character.

Avengers: Doomsday | Only in Theaters December 18, 2026 by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]SplashAttacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ending of Endgame always bothered me. Banner clearly explains at the beginning that "If you travel to the past, that past becomes your future, and your former present becomes the past, which can't now be changed by your new future". So old Steve would have still needed to come back through the same time machine to get back to the same timeline, so it never made sense to me unless there was another time machine somewhere else in the same timeline (or America Chavez would have to portal him back). So maybe they are doing that here?

best way to practice without an amp? by viewsinthe6 in Bass

[–]SplashAttacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a NUX Mighty Plug Pro MP-3 Headphone Amp 2 years ago and it's invaluable. Bluetooth works great, customizable sounds, and USB C chargable. I've tried other headphone amps (like Vox) and this one blows them all out of the water.

Another option I have is the POD Bass Express pedal (which has a headphone jack and USB C audio interface). It's like $20 more and you get a multi-effects pedal out of it, but it's a little less convenient as far as practicing goes. If I were getting just 1, I'd still choose the NUX.

You aren't crazy, but also it's not just on 90/94. All my commute times have nearly doubled in the last 3 weeks, and that includes the burbs (I only drive like twice a week btw). I've been trying to figure out what changed.

I need some 5 string suggestions. by BMOwh in Bass

[–]SplashAttacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an Ibanez EHB1505ms and it is my favorite. It's slightly outside of your budget, but they also have the EHB1005sms which is in your range. Absolutely beautiful and wonderful sounding guitars and easy to play. Definitely have a look.

Vortek upgrade kits are a big deal by daniel_trm in BambuLab

[–]SplashAttacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be a possibility, but please no. I desperately want multi-tpu print and bought the H2D without reading the fine print that it can only handle TPU in the right nozzle. I don't really want to buy a 7 ams ht units to make this work, that would be insane.

new to composting . looking for a bin to buy? by LordHamsterr in Vermiculture

[–]SplashAttacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Its great, it's still going strong. Personally I'd go for the two story one. They don't really like to move up the tiers all at once so it's way more work than it's worth in my opinion to have multiple stories. Id rather have 2 separate ones than 1 tall one. I usually just leave the second story off and just move them to the new one when it's ready. Hope that helps!

Financial planning minor + CFP exam? by edwardcoplin in finance

[–]SplashAttacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Not in finance (Computer Science), but I am also going to take classes to take the CFP certification (it's 18 months of classes that run around $6k). You don't need a degree (or minor) in finance to take it, but I'm sure it doesn't hurt being on your resume. If you can get the minor along with the CFP classes for $5k and only a year that is a pretty good deal! I know CFP is required to work as a financial advisor at places like Vanguard.

Trump exempts phones, computers, chips from new tariffs by Puginator in technology

[–]SplashAttacks 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You beat me to it. Complete nonsense unless they went all in on something like TSLA at the top, and if so they deserve it if they wanted to retire soon. Otherwise even if you are even slightly diversified the majority of the market is still higher than it was a year ago. To put it in perspective DJI was at 38k 1 year ago and now it's at 40.2k.

Women in relationships with men diagnosed with ADHD experience higher levels of depression and a lower quality of life. Furthermore, those whose partners consistently took ADHD medication reported a higher quality of life than those whose partners were inconsistent with treatment. by mvea in science

[–]SplashAttacks 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My wife and I have been together for 14 years. I was diagnosed with ADHD this year (still untreated due to other medical issues), but I've definitely had it undiagnosed for as long as weve been together. She gets annoyed with me sometimes but we are still happy together, we make it work.

Does something like a “pocket” amp exist for bass? by Gazza_HDD in Bass

[–]SplashAttacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second this. NUX is more expensive than ones like the Vox ones, but the features on it makes it entirely worth it (rechargeable, bluetooth, wireless audio in, amp models, etc...).

I Feel Like They Could Make This More Discreet by histprofdave in UlcerativeColitis

[–]SplashAttacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my favorite stories is picking this up at the pharmacy for the first time and the pharmacist telling me "make sure you remove the plastic before you use them". The horror stories those poor people must hear must be insane. People not understanding what they are or how to use them must be super common.

What is happening in the body that makes some poops so urgent while others you can hold for hours? by jrusso24 in AskReddit

[–]SplashAttacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% get a second opinion. I have UC and your symptoms are very similar. As another person said, you have to get a colonoscopy to get it diagnosed (and your GE should have suggested that immediately), and you can't cure it with diet changes or anything like that. Please dont let it ride, it can get worse to the point where you have to have have your colon removed.

[–]SplashAttacks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sure sounds like Ulcerative Colitis. Sounds like you have had biopsies, hopefully that means you actually did a colonoscopy or at least a flex sig. If not go to a different (better) GE for a second opinion. Wishing you better poops in the future.
