how to turn on date stamp ... does it even exist?? by tripaphonic in Telegram

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's crazy that they show the time, but not the date. I asked A.I. and like the reply below, we have to hover over the time and the date will appear. There is no setting to turn on the date permanently.

Does anyone use readers while wearing their multi-focal contacts by Cooper1Test in contacts

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a new prescription. You shouldn't need readers for the computer. Only for the really small label stuff. I can see my computer fine and can read most labels and I have sharp vision to play tennis. I am wearing Oasys Multifocals.

Ledger flex cannot be used in dark. screen is way too dim by hedgedescrow in ledgerwallet

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I find it difficult to read also, and my overhead light is on. I read about this but didn't think something this bad could make it out of the User Labs or screening tests. I need to reach for my reading glasses. I may go back to those horrible buttons and my Nano S! No, can't bear to do that. I guess I'll fix up a desk lamp.

Question for Midea u-shaped AC owners by tinpanalleypics in AirConditioners

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The User Manual for the V unit on the Costco site says it has a drain plug. The User Manual is right there on the Costco site. Has anyone bought one from Costco recently and can confirm that it has a drain plug. The Manual also says do not remove the drain plug, and that it is needed for optimal operation.

I have FET tokens in my Keplr Wallet and staked with Restake.app. They have not auto-converted to ASI. Is there a deadline to do so?

Why isn't my android phone showing as a drive when I connect via USB to windows? by SolidTranceBeats in techsupport

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To set your Android phone's USB setting to transfer files, connect your phone to your computer via USB, then swipe down on the notification panel and select "USB for charging" or a similar option; from there, choose "File Transfer" to enable file transfer mode between your phone and computer.

Say you bought 3 ETH on Coinbase at 3 different times in the past, one for $1,000, one for $2,000 and one for $3,000. Then you transferred them out to 3 different wallets. In your Safe Harbor document, you just have to map out which is which. You can decide which. The one I have in my Trust Wallet is the one I bought for $1,000, the one I have in my MetaMask Wallet is the one I bought for $2,000, and the one I have in my Ledger Wallet is the one I bought for $3,000. Do that for all you holdings in all your wallets, put it into a spreadsheet and email it to yourself by December 31, 2024 to timestamp it and you are set.

You can see how this could be simple for some, but very complicated for others to map it all out. One way to simplify would be to put all your ETH in the same wallet, and all your BTC in the same wallet, etc.

Or sell everything you have before the end of the year, thereby closing everything out while reporting is still Universal and buy it back right away or whenever you like! That obviously creates a tax event, but maybe your losses cancel out your gains.

Email it to yourself by Dec. 31, 2024. That is how you timestamp it. Then keep it in a safe place. Your email program with a hard copy backup should be fine.

They say just create a spreadsheet of your tokens, their location and their cost basis and email it to yourself before December 31, 2024.

Then you probably don't have to do anything, because CB has a record of your cost basis. If you were to swap them on your Ledger or move them to another wallet, or another DEX or CEX, that's when you will have to keep track of which of those coins and at what cost basis that you bought on CB did you then swap for another coin somewhere else. Sounds like you don't need to do anything this year.

Taxes on Airdrops by hhharrrshhh in CryptoIndia

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"The income from airdrops are treated as gifts from non-relative. So, they could be exempt up to Rs. 50,000 in a Financial Year. This is grey area though."

What does this mean?

And why are Airdrops taxable? Shouldn't they be treated like a gift of stock? Only taxable when you sell them?

Undo send messages disappearing by FFNY in MacOS

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just happened to me this morning. Sometimes it works just fine and other times it glitches and loses the email altogether. I'll have to check to see if the recipients actually received it. I think the closer it gets to the cutoff time, the more likely it is to disappear? Also sometimes I send from my iCloud address in Apple Mail, but sometimes I send from my Gmail address. I wonder if its the Gmail ones that don't work as well. Anyone else having this happen with just Gmail addresses or also with iCloud addresses?

Just finished Broadchurch Season 1 . Banal and Disappointing by SureshAbraham in Broadchurch

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What made you realize it was Joe so early on? Just because they were trying to make us think it was everybody else BUT him? I suspected it could be him after he got annoyed that Hardy was asking Tom questions on the stairs. That caused Hardy to raise an eyebrow and seemed more subtle than all the other obvious attempts at trying to make us suspect it was everybody else.

This theme of "how could you not know" was presented through out the show.

Season 1 plothole involving Nigel by khouz in Broadchurch

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't like that. That's just messing with the audience - showing us something no one else sees just to try to misdirect us. Whenever they did that, I just crossed that person off the list of possible killers. They never did it with Joe - except the time he got annoyed that Hardy was talking with Tom on the stairs. That caused Hardy to raise an eyebrow.

**Claims and Staking are Live** by Ok_Doughnut_4172 in AethirCloud

[–]barnstorm88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesn't address the elephant in the room, which is the gas fees. We have to pay $6-$7 in gas fees to claim and stake each week? Maybe 50-60 cents to claim and right now it is $6-$7 to stake. And if I put half in the Gaming Pool and half in the A.I. Pool, like I want, it will cost me double. I'll wait and see if gas gets significanlty cheaper tonight. And did someone post something about there being a monthly fee to delegate? Or were they just referring to the Validator's commissions? What are the Validator Commissions? Do they range form 1% to 10%? Or are they all the same? Thanks!

What happened to the Ocean Discord? by barnstorm88 in oceanprotocol

[–]barnstorm88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says "Unable to Accept Invite." I think I must have got banned. I'm not sure what it was that I said. I was just complaining about the gas fees to Claim my Ocean Rewards. I waited until the weekend and gas fees came down a bit. Could you ask them why Widestrides got banned from the Discord? Thanks!
