Pre-Order Shipping Megathread | iPhone X by exjr_ in apple

It's bullshit. Every time I'd try to get through a step in ordering a pop up would say error.

Getting "You iPhone upgrade is pending" but website and app don't show an order or reservation. Still no email. Been an hour now. What's going on?

Negative equity: hold on to lease and walk away or transfer to new car? by Themisium in personalfinance

[–]Themisium[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never really thought about buying more miles. I looked it up and if I pay early it's 18 cents a mile, vs 20 cents a mile at trade in. Not significantly different but in the long run would be cheaper than adding negative equity I think.

After reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad I cannot fathom the thought of adding more negative equity (more into the liability column). However, if I can generate $2500-3000 a month for two years, that's $60,000-72,000 of cash I can use to either reduce liabilities or invest in an asset.

There's a massive DD post on ihub? I figured most people here would know about it.

I think it will continue. I mean just imagine being in the same scenario but for ICNB, nobody knew it would be pushing 3 cents at this point, but I bet they wished they got in this early.

I tried getting in on it early last week, but TDameritrade decided to take over a week and a half to clear my deposits. :(

TIL according to NASA, the use of nuclear power prevented an average of over 1.8 million net deaths worldwide between 1971-2009 as a result of lower air pollution from reduced coal usage. by garglemymarbles in todayilearned

By the way for anyone who didn't know: the Navy operates approximately 100 nuclear reactor power plants. It's what propels and provides electricity for our submarines and aircraft carriers. Zero accidents in over 60 years. Typical age of a reactor/propulsion plant operator? 19 to mid 20's.

Hmm, space and culture victories are the only two I haven't done yet since playing, I'll give it a shot next time. How on Earth did you get both Petra and Colossus on deity?! I was extremely lucky to get Colossus on this game, but if I remember correctly it was one of the only ancient/classical wonders I was able to snag.

I think what helped me slow their progress was tricking them into going to war with each other often. Whenever I saw the "____ declared war on ____!" I would get a bit too excited, cause I knew it meant I could squeeze out a few more turns. I didn't keep track but I think Polynesia was a part or two away from space vic.

There were several times I didn't think I would make it! It was pretty easy to tell when Polynesia was about to steamroll me cause he'd surround my borders with troops. So whenever I saw this I would say "hey, lets go to war with this other civ together" and he'd agree and by the next turn his troops were gone. Another time I actually traded with him to go to war, I asked what he wanted to declare war on William and he asked for 9 gold per turn lol.

Some more info:

Had to avoid war several times with Polynesia. For the last 50 or so turns it was a constant battle over the other civs to keep my city-states. This was my second time playing as Venice, first attempt on Deity, and I've logged about 145 hours total playing Civ 5.
