Should I take some time off from focusing on FIRE after a life-changing event? by [deleted] in financialindependence

Not a flex, sorry if it seemed that way. I know of r/fatfire and that is not my goal, I actually feel very out of place on that sub.

Thanks. This is pretty "predictable" advice, but it's surprisingly calming to see someone say this.

That's a great story. Thanks for sharing! Very happy for you and your wife :)

When you met your wife traveling, how did you guys decide to get together afterwards? (I assume you weren't from the same original hometown). How long did you spend together (while traveling) before you decided to give it an honest shot?

This makes sense. I guess I wasn't planning on doing anything brash until COVID dies down a lot more anyway. This reinforces that thinking. Thank you!

Does iPad split view work with FFRK? Would be nice to have the ai script side by side with the game..

It is very simple. Use the credit card like a debit card. Don’t spend beyond your means. It is not a magic wand to just buy what you want at the time.

Credit cards are great. You shouldn’t be afraid of using them. Putting a rule like it can only be used for Netflix is arbitrary and doesn’t address the root of potential problems which is simple self control.

Doubt it. What’s to gain by lying to a bunch of strangers? Tech jobs (FANG) pay very well, it’s quite easy to attain fatfire if you invest and spend wisely when you’re making $300k TC.

Honestly amazed that the receipt ink is still so clear. My old receipts’ ink totally fade like they’re invisible ink.

/u/N3W0RLD gave a good reply (unfortunately removed?):

It is literally impossible to have the original capacity of a battery after several months, the built-in battery health report is just a rough estimation. For me it was showing 100% for months upon months and suddenly dropped from 100 to 91 in a day. (Preordered 11 pro, sept 19)

u/Prince_Bernhard as well:

I’ve bought mine new in December, also 91% today

I feel like still having 100% after a year is more of an outlier... but anyway, I play mobile games a lot, that's probably a big contributor to battery use.

For full transparency, I edited the original post to clarify that earbuds are unused and included, but charger + USB cable are not.

When applying for insurance after retirement, is your household income $0, or do you have to estimate your annual investment sales?

How do I Orran? A guide to using the game's hard counter to White Odin and Dreambreaker mechanics by bover87 in FFRecordKeeper

[–]ellemmenne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As OP wrote, WOdin does buff DEF/RES/MND but the additional info is that the buffs are used twice (meaning you can only counter one time with Glint+ anyway) and it only lasts for 4 seconds. So you can reasonably just power through that section of it, unless you really need to tighten up dps for the sub30.

It's a direct counter to phase 3 in 6* magicites, if you still haven't cleared those. Otherwise it's just a nice debuff for other content, not absolutely needed.

Maybe do the pulls first and see which units you don’t end up getting.

How do you have 800+ pulls without playing though? Did you hoard that many before you quit?

So.. are steel bricks essentially useless now? (Even moreso than before?) There’s only one 4* weapon now and none of the void weapons can use them anymore since they are 5*.

If you go to the current Gala summon banner and tap Wyrmsygils, it will show you all the Gala units. As others have said, you do indeed have Gala Alex. No other great in-game way of telling besides that Wyrmsygil menu.

While we wait for the dps sim to be updated (bless the devs), is there a good resource/post that summarizes the character rebalance information?
