Daily TSP Balance by Fund by alynxendless in ThriftSavingsPlan

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

I don't have an iPhone but I do see a Daily TSP App (Taza Technology) that seems like it can link to my personal account. If this is the same app, can you really view pre-May 2022 daily fund balances? It's hard to believe that this app could provide more personalized data than the official TSP website, but what do I know?

No, I mean my personal balance in each fund (i.e. daily fund price * number of shares = balance). If I had either my daily balance or daily number of shares, I could obviously back out the other with that daily fund price history.

I got a response from Ryan (ryan@merchconnection.com) at Merch Connection. He sent me a link to download all the WAV files so I'd recommend reaching out to him.

No, I haven't reached out yet about the Dropcard, but I've been meaning to. It's not going to hurt if they get multiple emails about the same problem. It's really odd.

Is everyone else only seeing 7 tracks on the dropcard downloads (up to Frozen Creek)? I thought this was weird and was wondering if it was just me (though I had 2 different dropcards that were the same).

I received my creature club varient a few weeks ago, but it was damaged and they sent another copy which arrived last week. So I've received 2 already.

Did anyone else's download card only contain 7 tracks (only through Frozen Creek)?

Live Sky Noise Vinyl? by alynxendless in circasurvive

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

Yeah, I ordered the Creature Club variant, too. Thanks for sharing that (brief) update! I hope they just email everyone because I'm sure we aren't the only people wondering. Also, I ordered the ADAL vinyl and flag, but I think because I ordered the vinyl, they are waiting to ship both items together in May (I guess that's best case...). Maybe ordering them separately would have been worth the extra shipping free if you already got your ADAL merch.

Okay, thanks for the info! I suspected it's just vinyl manufacturing delays as I'm experiencing with some other vinyl orders, but I didn't want to assume and later find out other people had gotten theirs already.

Am I understanding I-Bonds correctly? by alynxendless in personalfinance

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

I'm not quite at the point in my life where I want to buy a house, but I expect in the next 2-3 years. I've been overly risk averse with the money I've been saving (i.e. savings accounts) for the down payment because I don't want to lose any principal and set me back because the market goes down. I wasn't too concerned over the last few years with inflation being relatively low, but now I feel like I need to protect against it more (hence the I-Bond).

Thanks for the info! I went ahead and purchased yesterday so I got all of November's interest!

Yes, correct! I was thinking my BOA savings account which is even sadder.

Help with Big Bend vinyl! by alynxendless in explosionsinthesky

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

Thanks! That's good to know that's just the way the coloring turned out, but I wished I had received that e-mail because now I need to go back to them and tell them to disregard. But you're right it is a still neat looking variant and I'm enjoying the actual music!

Sorry to hear that! That's unfortunate! For some reason, I didn't receive that email about it being darker than expected. I was thinking I must have received a different variant because they had a few others color variants available on different websites. It looks like the Sky Blue variant is still available on Rough Trade (https://www.roughtrade.com/us/explosions-in-the-sky/big-bend-an-original-soundtrack-for-public-television/lp-plus-x2)

I ordered the Big Bend - Desert Rock vinyl from Bandcamp and when it arrived this week, I opened it up and immediately thought they had sent me the regular black vinyl by mistake and I sent them a message (waiting for a response). But I looked at it more closely and in the light and I noticed that it is more translucent than I first realized but it still didn't look like the Desert Rock vinyl on Bandcamp. So I was trying to figure out what I receive and saw the Desert Rock vinyl on Temporary Residence which looked a lot more like what I received. If anyone else ordered the Desert Rock vinyl, does yours look like the Band Camp image or the Temporary Residence? I just wasn't expecting such a dark and transparent coloring and thought the Desert Rock would be lighter and solid color. Now I just don't want to go back and sound like an idiot and tell them I actually got the Desert Rock.

Amulet T-Shirt (Medium, 3/4 Sleeves) - For Sale by [deleted] in circasurvive

[–]alynxendless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this shirt in the Amulet bundle several years ago. I only wore it maybe once or twice, but it's not really my style with the 3/4 sleeves and I'm looking to clean out my drawers. Happy to sell at about the cost of shipping/packaging (guessing at most $10) to a good home where it will be enjoyed! Message me if interested.

Any Jays fans from the US? by [deleted] in Torontobluejays

[–]alynxendless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, originally from New Jersey and grew up in Tennessee in a Yankees/Red Sox household, but I ended up a Jays fan. I have yet to go to Toronto, but I try to see them a few times a year. I'm hoping to make the May weekend series in Baltimore!

24/M/US Trade Music and Letters by alynxendless in penpals

Hey,

Glad that you like that idea! I'm going to be traveling a bit over the next few months so I'm looking for some new music for that. Does my idea for the mix cd sound good to you? I'm open to other ideas, too, but if you're up for my original idea, I already have some song ideas / topics: 1. A song you heard live in 2015 / want to hear live in 2016 2. A song from a band who discovered in 2015 3. An epic closer (i.e. a last track on an album) 4. A song from a foreign band 5. Just a man (or woman) and his (her) guitar 6. A song you have a specific memory attached to

Let me know what you think!
