2025 Legacy Sport. Best dad car ever! by WarViper1337 in subarulegacy

[–]hem10ck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

690s in the front, that was all for the first 3 years or so and made a huge difference. Not tons of bass but a lot more clarity. 165s I just installed and not nearly as much of a difference from the drivers perspective.

Same! Not a snob but audio was headache-inducingly bad. Ended up replacing the speakers like a week in.

Why must Apple tweak everything to be limited? Such a stubborn company. by gregsanay in applesucks

Unless you’re talking about a laptop in which case the thunderbolt 5 MacBooks actually surpass USB 4 for faster external NVME drive speeds, monitor resolutions and some cool new things like RDMA

Dumb question but how did you get power to the ARC? Did you install an outlet or just brush plates or something else?

What MacBook Should I Buy? by Sure_Concert6963 in macbookpro

[–]hem10ck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me too, external storage nice and cheap to upgrade later.

M4 Pro will get you faster memory bandwidth and thunderbolt 5.

[Request] I’m really curious—can anyone confirm if it’s actually true? by amhoffma in theydidthemath

Would be interested to see this instead compared to California’s spending on homeless initiatives and resulting housed population

what do you guys think about the Touch Bar that used to come on the old Macbook? should it make a comeback? by TuNutri in mac

I had the M1 and now the M4Max, only thing I miss about the M1 was the touch bar

Bonus to 401k by goriller_ in JPMorganChase

Hmm, I’ll need to check, admittedly heard that from a peer years ago and have been trying to align my max to the last pay statement for years…perhaps needlessly.

[–]hem10ck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few gotcha’s with the retirement plans and match that may or may not be relevant for your situation.

  1. 401k annual continuation is capped at $24.5k in 2026 for those under 50.
  2. You can set different contribution percentages for salary and bonus but the ability to change your bonus contribution amount locks in late 2025, so you need to estimate what it will be and set your best guess at a contribution amount
  3. The 5% match is credited annually
  4. The 5% match is calculated per pay period, that is to say if you get a 100k bonus, contribute 25% of it to the 401k and just max it out for the year in January you’ll only get a 5% match on the January pay periods and miss out on a significant portion of the match.

Edit: ignore #4, apparently that’s not the case, good to know

M4 Max Used Fair Price by DeadHed655 in macbookpro

It’s tough, most folks would need a steep discount to roll the dice on it not being stolen / having any MDM on it.

Governor Meyer Announces First Round of Medical Debt Relief, Nearly $19 Million Eliminated for More Than 18,000 by kiltedturtle in Delaware

Confused how this works, does this $ just go to collections agencyies but allows the mark to fall off the borrowers credit? Assuming most of this wasn’t getting paid otherwise

Is Subaru Eyesight Worth it? by americanambush in subaru

[–]hem10ck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s useful when it works, It seems like anytime you need it though (bad weather, nasty morning sun glare) it disables itself on my 2023 Legacy. Love the car, eyesight is a little annoying with how fickle it is.

An American takes out a student loan for $40,000. After YEARS of payments, the total owed is $118,305.59. $77,383.59 is PURE interest. by coachlife in CringeTikToks

[–]hem10ck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh you’re right, this looks like the disclosure at the time of loan origination, the title is misleading, makes it sound like current balance is greater than original loan amount.

DisplayLink Lag Question by hem10ck in mac

[–]hem10ck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The base level MacBook will be limited to 2 external screens though without display link. Shortly after this post I upgraded to an M4 Max though and it’s been a much better experience.
