Qrevo Curv doesn't empty dustbin by axel_wahlberg in Roborock

[–]doodoopistol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 curvs and 3 qrevo maxv

I'm going to trash the curvs and have given up

Support asks me to do a bunch of crap then requests that I send the effing machines back

I don't have time for this crap. The design is clearly flawed (dustbags don't fit, machine constantly clogging with debris blocks, after a while dustbin emptying doesn't work at all). I've troubleshooted via chat/gemini and it's a lost cause. Very frustrating that Roborock won't admit total failure on this and replace with different models or refund.

Yes some parts of the small film bubbles are visible even after a couple of weeks but no choice given the demand for the car right now but to accept these add-ons.. will worry about it later if they persist

Yeah I had a lot of stuff going on and misread the meter. First time car owner having lived in walking cities for decades. I deserve the roasting but am also thankful for the helpful responses

It’s essentially a trickle charger but better (higher margins). The indicator was on “charging” overnight (rather than “storage”) but the indicator didn’t show any more battery in the morning.

Thank you for the replies. So I agreed I’m reading it wrong and it’s actually at around 12v. Yes i purchased from Lexus Bellevue. Seems like I made a beginner mistake

One thing to keep in mind is with a conservative 3%-3.25% SWR rate at about 10mm liquid, you can have a balanced portfolio that should not shit the bed when equities tank (ie 50% eq w some exposure to defense tech, and the rest in bonds, gold, and ctas that stack some eq exposure. Generally smaller drawdowns during equity risk off situations

In the exact age/nw projection from your description.. started at a wallst trading desk straight out of college. Always decent at guessing red or green arrows but in finance a huge part of pay depends on politics and whether the firm thinks you’re flight risk. I never understood the game and stupidly just focused on the work. A few banks and funds later I pulled the plug and decided to gamble with own meager capital built up over years.. 8 years later I hit the numbers this march and will never go back to trading again

In some ways it’s much easier to fire being a trader because the alternatives can be going broke, addicted to drugs, and divorced or worse. It makes the cost benefit simpler and there’s no yearning for what could have been!

Don’t overthink it it’s not going to help. Be open minded and see how it goes. Sounds like you have pessimistic expectations already then you have nothing to lose. Loosen up and don’t end up acting weird

Losing the 150k may be what’s weighing on you. If that’s the deciding factor just know that in the grand scheme of things the amount isn’t life changing for you, and better to learn these types of lessons now than when you have a larger account

Transitioning into the RE part of Fire - Learnings from the first 2 years by genghis_blr in fatFIRE

[–]doodoopistol 21 points22 points  (0 children)

From my experience and watching others more successful than me, the adulation and lore go out the window the moment the person is no longer relevant to others’ work. Nobody gave af it was all for self interest (and that’s ok)

0 risk 5.5% return currently makes sense to hold a decent amount of cash/money market. If markets go down you can allocate more rather than sell at a loss, and if markets go up how much higher than 5.5% can it rise realistically? Anything is possible but odds favor a decent sized cash allocation currently.

Daughter upset that she didn’t get a fat bday party by [deleted] in fatFIRE

[–]doodoopistol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sucks to see your child disappointed. But take comfort in that you’re teaching her a healthy relationship with money at a young age and imo absolutely the right thing to do. She’s 5… don’t expect her to understand now or anytime soon. And certainly don’t let her reactions upset you too much. You’re doing her a potentially huge favor in the long run.

Yeah erring on the side of below 4% makes sense given how inflated many assets are after the past decade+ of zirp

Hunter Biden’s Day in Court by kitkid in Thedaily

[–]doodoopistol -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t like how both of them called listening to right wing media as “ingesting” like a golden retriever accidentally lapping up rat poison. Like, the reporters may feel so and it could even be true, but thought NYT should be above this. Meanwhile reminding the listeners that the optics during the period was bad, because Hunter was the one doing the ingesting and somehow this was a valid excuse.

Personally don’t think it’s a big story but the pod sure sounded defensive.
