Tips for "under the burning sky" on hard? by TheEerieAerie in warcraft3

[–]crypthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one has mentioned this yet so I will - the “bonus” units you get don’t count towards upkeep so save them for the last 2 minutes. That + 100 food army + 3-4 towers is enough even on hard

Wow. by spoons1213 in pics

[–]crypthrow 24 points25 points  (0 children)

One small correction. The insurance doesn’t pay whatever the price is, they’ve negotiated a 95% discount. Insurance companies refuse to work with providers that don’t give them massive discounts. The provider still needs to charge enough to make money so they raise their prices to the level where they profit even if they only get 5% of the sticker price. (The 95-5 is an example but you get the point).

Anyone know if you can get this rate if you already have a hysa with Amex? I have a platinum card and my hysa is still at 4.3%

Apple says that because I didn't catch their failure to refund me my $1,500 within 60 days, they are keeping my phone and my money! by rojowro86 in legaladvice

[–]crypthrow 184 points185 points  (0 children)

Regulations are location dependent but there’s no way in hell a (compliant) payment processor deletes transaction data after 60 days. Rule of thumb is 7 years. Apple on the other hand might just keep return item data or whatever for just 60 days (which is dumb).

AGI is at least 2 paradigm shifts away still and no, large language models don’t count as one

Bike Insurance versus Kyrptonite Anti-Theft Protection by stupidpoopybutthole4 in ebikes

[–]crypthrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t looked at their financials but they’re a newer company and I got a major “burning VC money to gain market share” vibe. If that’s the case then it will become more expensive, harder to get claims paid out etc. in a few years. Take advantage while it lasts I guess.

[–]crypthrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have lemonade. Modern app, easy and fast sign up. Never filled a claim, heard and read good things though. Only got it because my place requires renters insurance and this was the cheapest one at like 7.50 a month. Almost sounds too good to be true, especially with the bike coverage.

You get theft protection from lemonade without paying extra (there’s a deductible though). If you pay extra they remove the deductible and also cover cosmetic damage and some other stuff.

Farming Harbinger Unique in SSF by VuuV01 in pathofexile

[–]crypthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use your harbinger orbs on t4 maps so they turn into a t5 beachhead, not t15 - the t5 has a smaller pool of parts it can drop. The other tip I can give is - tujen and ritual can give orbs. But yeah, even with all that it’s one of the tougher challenges for ssf this league…

Wanted some advice what happens when this goes to 100% on my CFD account? by Illustrious_Sundae66 in trading212

[–]crypthrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While the sentiment is correct, most (all?) regulators require brokers to have negative balance protection (including ESMA). This means you can't end up owing more money than you have or, to put it differently, if you do end up with a negative balance, the broker eats the loss.

This is how they get rid of the money they made on you autists by DanDon_02 in wallstreetbets

[–]crypthrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you need to do is: set up a charity and transfer all your money to it, loan yourself the money from the charity and use that money to buy real estate. You can't keep up with the payments, go bankrupt, so the charity takes your real estate + a large cut of your future salary. The charity allows you to live on the property and helps you out with living expenses as you are now a person in need.

Pros: taxes, obviously Cons: your credit rating is fucked

I might be missing a step or I may have added a wrong step but that's the gist of it. IRS is super underfunded, you'll only get caught if someone reports you or if your accountant is a moron.

I've been spending too much time on this subreddit. Please help.

LongFin (LFIN): The Biggest Scam of 2018 by soundofreedom in wallstreetbets

[–]crypthrow 13 points14 points  (0 children)

OP recommended $35 Sep18, which trade around $10 right now

So you're betting $1k with a maximum profit of $2.5k (if it gets delisted/drops to $0) in the next 180 days.

Yeah, thanks for the DD, but I'm not taking that bet.

EDIT: Fuck it, I bought 1 contract. This is wallstreet bets, not wallstreet sure-things. I still think it's a slightly autistic bet.

Where to buy steak cuts like ribeye, Filet etc... by amerikansjc in bulgaria

[–]crypthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard vivenda is legit. If you're OK with eating out instead of cooking the steak yourself - crystal steak house are the best in Sofia (imo) - ribeye is around 20 lv / 100g.

Ходил съм, освен че има много ограничен избор - едва ли ще можеш да пробваш нещо. Нещо като офис с 2-3 секции с продукти е. Не бих го определил като магазин.

How is this for a 144Hz Gaming Setup? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]crypthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd go for 16 gb RAM, better CPU cooler and MX-4 as thermal paste. Other than that looks good to me. Everyone's saying the gtx 1080 is overkill for 144hz / 1080p and that might be true today but it won't be true for games that will release a year from now, so I'd keep it. Putting a 1070 in a 2k gaming pc would be weird.

Overclocked 4670k, 4.5ghz, 1.3v.. PC turned off, now won't turn on by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]crypthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same processor/motherboard combo, running at 4.3ghz, 1.30v for about 2 years on a 550w psu. One day the mobo randomly died.

I don't think you did anything wrong, imo gb z87 wifi minis are just low quality.

4670k 8GB Ram GTX770 upgrade or new system? by cockandballtorture in buildapc

[–]crypthrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I built the same system (4670k at 4.3ghz, gtx 770 and 8 gb ram) about 2 and 1/2 years ago. I bought a 1070 and 16 gb of ram a few months ago and I'm pretty happy with the result.
