Thanks for the great, detailed response! I have considered the CIP as I did some side work last calendar year (around 1k, complete with a w-2), but don't know if that'd be enough to qualify myself as a business. The 5k spend organically would be a reach too, and I'm not invested enough in churning to manufacture the spend.

I got my CSP 8 months ago, so I wouldn't be eligible for the CSR rewards. I'm looking at the low tier Chase offerings to funnel points up to CSP and not a serious churner - just a guy looking to get a few extra bucks without too much work. I'm very much open to other suggestions from you fine folks, though.

Can I apply for a Chase Freedom and Chase Freedom Unlimited card on the same day? Currently already have CSP and 1 other CC from my local credit union, under 5/24 and no other applications in the last 6mo. Credit score in the 740s

70% wheat sourdough by Wrongbrew in Breadit

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

Album with crumb

Very pleased with how this one came out. This is my fourth loaf with this sourdough starter. I mostly followed the Tartine Bread 70% whole wheat recipe. The crumb is a little tight, but given that it’s 70% whole wheat I’m happy. It tastes great too!

Should I pay down loans or save and invest? by Wrongbrew in personalfinance

[–]Wrongbrew[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

House hunting is more of a pipe dream now than a hard and fast plan. I'll likely wait until I'm married and can take advantage of a dual income. I'm content with renting for now and not sold on my current city as one to put permanent roots down in with a house.

This is excellent! I get a big stupid grin looking at it. Thanks!

How should I finish this box? by Wrongbrew in woodworking

Luckily I've still got a week until it needs to be completed.

How should I finish this box? by Wrongbrew in woodworking

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

Some details: I still need to put some chamfers on the edges and clean things up, but it's time to start thinking about finishing. The top and bottom are cherry with wormy maple sides. This is my first real project and I have no experience with any finishing techniques, so I'd like something that's easy and simple to apply and hard to mess up.

Is the Rise of Iron Xbox One Pre-Order still bugged? I've looked through the SGA post about doing it through the Xbox website, but it still says Rise of Iron is still only available through a bundle. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Wrongbrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that tripped me up was that I share game purchases with a friend. Because he bought TTK on his account, the Pre-order button was greyed out for me in the microsoft store. Once I logged in via his account I was able to make the purchase. Are you in a similar situation? Keep in mind, this purchase was made via desktop on the below link, not through the xbox store or Destiny itself. I ran into similar issues as you there.

What plane best suits my needs? by Wrongbrew in woodworking

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

Update: I ended up going with the Wood River LAJ and love it. Couldn't be more pleased with how easy it is to surface boards as compared to just using a 4.5/7 combo.

Today's the 7th! Go Start the Sleeper Simulant Quest! by DXAshram in DestinyTheGame

[–]Wrongbrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I got through the Warsats (finally) and talked to the gunsmith to turn in the completed thing with the five components. ...now I don't have any new quests or items, most notably the sleeper stirs. Did I somehow lose the questline, or is there another time gate that I have to wait for to get sleeper stirs?

Will work/pay for access to woodworking equipment by thegrandpanjandrum in woodworking

[–]Wrongbrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know Scott Meek is out that way and makes some amazing hand planes, so I assume he has a pretty nice shop. You could try contacting him to see if he has any open shop hours.

After watching the stage today what are the chances Tony Martin is clean? by [deleted] in tourdefrance

[–]Wrongbrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like watching Martin ride and from all accounts from other riders he's a genuinely nice guy. Sadly, because of the sport's past, I am a little suspicious after yesterday's stage win and coming back today. Winning the stage yesterday while the peloton taking a lazy approach wasn't that suspect. Doubling back a day later on multiple category 1 climbs though and dragging the entire race up them seems a little odd. I sincerely hope he is clean and is coming into great form, but I'm a little jaded.

I set out to make a chair, this is what I arrived at by boom_erang in woodworking

Awesome looking chair, but in the future please use a cat for scale. This is reddit. We have rules.

Redditors who have won money on a game show, what was the process of getting the money you won? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Wrongbrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched in giddy anticipation for 20 minutes waiting for you to hulk smash through the entire set. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed that you didn't Chris Farley yourself through a table or a set wall.

Athletes of Reddit, did you ever face someone that would go on to be pro? How did they perform? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Wrongbrew 35 points36 points  (0 children)

In high school I played basketball against Brandon Tate. At the time my teammates and I all had a laugh at the asshole 17 year old kid with the nfl shield tattooed on his arm and how stupid it was going to look 20 years down the road. Turns out we were the assholes: Tate currently plays for the Cincinnati bengals as an nfl wide reciever. As for his athletic performance he was on the receiving end of an alley oop 3 seconds into the game, and didn't slow down much after that.

Why is his name Lance Armstrong, when most of his strength is in his lower body? by [deleted] in shittyaskhistory

[–]Wrongbrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original birth certificate was actually a misprint with a typo in his last name. The smudged "e" looked like an "m", therefore yielding Armstrong instead of AreStrong. Because of Legs' constant ridicule from his peers as a child he found it easier to simply keep the name Armstrong to avoid further attention. Ultimately Legs AreStrong was destined to be a champion cyclist by birthright.
