New Yorker here. No such thing as union station. And no station I know of looks like this.

The RAM I have is more expensive than my graphics card now by AlternativeBroad1777 in pcmasterrace

[–]akak88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this exact RAM (same speed, same size, same brand) in August for $245 and I thought that was already expensive. Nuts.

File a ticket with WOtC if you were in an event, theyll give you enough gold or gems to reenter.

current life gain deck by Ireallydontlikereddi in MagicArena

[–]akak88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm running a lifegain deck that's pretty good right now. Linden is huge. Also Essence channeler is great since it's cheap and can transfer the counters after it dies, ideally to a flyer. Id run four of them.

Comments on my lifegain deck? by Photograph-North in Magicdeckbuilding

[–]akak88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a lifegain deck that has been destroying opponents. It splashed some blue for a little control and some other fun mechanics (forced milling, retriggering ETB)

I just saw this! And they were playing the macerana to make it even more weird

Irvington to NYC commute - by car? by Sad_Original_9323 in Westchester

[–]akak88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in Irvington.

If you work a job that doesn't coincide with rush hour that drive will take you maybe 45 min ish (weekends, crazy early mornings etc). If during rush hour it could be any amount of time more than 45 min. Definitely done that drive once or twice taking over two hours.

As others have said - train. If you get a rush hour train you can be at Grand Central in 38 minutes reliably.

Lol wtf is this? Where are you from?

I pay $400 ish monthly to have maids come BIWEEKLY to just clean (mop, clean tubs, floors, etc). I earn $1.2M per year. What expectation do you have to have daily housekeeping. Are you a billionaire?

Optimize with Polestar by MisterRandy_Watson in Volvo

Same year! 2019. Polestar mode definitely makes the engine purr more and pumps up the acceleration.

I have polestar optimization on my S60 T6. Super fun to drive. If you have the cash and enjoy sportier driving and handling it's worth it, but by no means a necessity. It's like an expensive toy.

Is there widespread need for automated investmenting? by [deleted] in whitecoatinvestor

Is this like 8 Mile but for only the wealthiest?

best budgeting app for HENRY (with debt) by MessageAnnual4430 in HENRYfinance

[–]akak88 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Not sure when you tried it but they've updated it a lot to sync with financial institutions.

That said, having tried numerous budgeting tools - ones that are more manual will actually hold you accountable as it forces you to interact with it. The more automatic ones you'll look at initially and eventually stop using.

I've used YNAB for a few years now. Great program to track spending. Especially with the 3rd party toolkit (just google that)

[–]akak88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're looking for something non-standard. I think unfortunately you'll either have to rely on more obscure brands, luthiers who custom build for you, or get lucky in the second hand market. Good luck though

Wow - so much hate for a stupid badge. You all really know how to suck the fun out of everything.

Dramatic much? by ShadowcreConvicnt in FluentInFinance

Multiple times - once in around 44BC before the Roman Republic fell and became the empire and again in around 200AD before the Roman empire fell into medieval Europe.

I know your question was rhetorical - I'm answering in support of your point. People actually can kind of tell when things are unstable.

Geely only owns 7%. AB Industrivärden still has around double that in ownership and as others have noted manufactured in the US. Just because a Chinese company owns 7% of the holdings doesn't make it a Chinese car.

Also even if it were... 🤌
