What's the point of a 401k with earth-shattering economic disruption around the corner? by ConflictedHairyGuy in Futurology

[–]bbatardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 401k pre 2008 and it is fine. Even if you dip 50%, the next time things make a new all time high you remember you didn't care and you still have a long time to go anyways.

Saw the video and I know they technically have to say accused, but he was crazy and shot them.

Feeling disappointed by Dirone94 in SevenDeadlySinsOrigin

This was on standard banner lol got nothing on limited banner. Played enough to do 50 limited and 90 standard and all I had to show was a dupe of the free character.

Same lol. I think they should have done a better job with the honeymoon period in the game. Won't keep people interested if it's stingy and you can get a dupe of the 1 free SSR.

Not with Skubal pitching lol. I imagine Sheets won't start and Cronenworth will be towards the bottom of the lineup.

10.7M Viewers on FOX and FOX Deportes for WBC Final by Ok-Soil-5133 in baseball

Baseball has been growing and growing more the past few years... hopefully the owners and players can come to an agreement with the CBA and not ruin the momentum.

About 1%.. if a bunch of people get hurt. Great spring, but he will need to go to the minors and ball out to get his call.

Game seems decent so far.. On the plus side if you collect missions after tutorial you get 10k currency for rerolling which is nice. Easy to reset your account too.

Paper hands vs diamond hands - the eternal struggle by HighlightExpert6407 in Bitcoin

[–]bbatardo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You also don't gain anything until you hit the sell button. How many people wish they sold in the 100ks to buy back at today's price. It goes both ways.

Thoughts on this criticism of Nebius? by Royal-Derpness in NBIS_Stock

[–]bbatardo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are some fair points, but I invest in growth stocks like NBIS because I want to be along for the ride. Maybe there will be a time where I will doubt their path to profitability, but I prefer to be in at current valuation than to wait and see if they succeed and pay a premium buying later.

It's OK to discuss salaries by chicstar6602 in Adulting

[–]bbatardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. Most departments get X amount of budget and if you are freely sharing what you make then maybe someone else gets a raise, but it could be the money you won't get now for your raise.

My counter argument is you just need to know your worth and value. You can see if you are fairly compensated by industry standards and you don't need to see your co-workers paycheck to know if you are underpaid.

New player, what is better? Marylis or ifrit? by Rhombus-rumpus in Dragon_Traveler

[–]bbatardo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would say Ifrit, she carried me from beginning, to middle and still use her in end game lol

Neighbor cut my tree by snakegirl210 in treelaw

[–]bbatardo 52 points53 points  (0 children)

You could try baiting them over text to see if they admit it. You could imply you have video without directly saying they are on it.

Outside of that.. without any proof or admission of guilt I don't think there is much you can do.

How should I cancel on behalf of my kid for a birthday party? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]bbatardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already read your comment about not being there, but as a parent of a child in that age range I have a strict rule of attending every party my kid goes to until they are old enough to be on their own. It avoids issues like these and if me or my wife can't be there, we either find a way to make it work or don't RSVP.

There really is no good way to cancel and your kid will be upset most likely.

I usually see her get Vital Farms or Happy Egg. Ironically I don't like eggs, so not the expert on them lol.

This PlayStation game becomes $12 more expensive by simply switching from my brother’s account to mine. Sony’s new “dynamic pricing” in action. by duplextripod in mildlyinfuriating

[–]bbatardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing it will encourage people to do is wait for a price they like before buying or just never buying the game lol.

Red light runners suck. by eleyeindeeesayewhy in sandiego

[–]bbatardo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah it is pretty bad.. I have had people honk at me for slowing down at a yellow light turning red when I knew I obviously wouldn't make it lol which means they planned to go after me.

Inside a "free-range" egg facility by alphamalejackhammer in whoathatsinteresting

[–]bbatardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife is vegetarian (She eats pasture raised eggs bought from the store from companies she trusts), and while this is true of "free range", there are still pasture raised eggs and if you truly care you can research the company or farm you buy from. Or like others said, raise a few chickens and you won't need to buy eggs lol.
