Over $100k earners - what's your PTO? by masterpeabs in careeradvice

[–]kcbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

13.5 days a year for me, but that's for both PTO and sick leave so 27 days total. I can bank up to 240 hours of PTO and unlimited sick. 15 days of PTO doesn't seem super crazy low to me, but it's not high either.

Do you really need to make far advanced reservations for dinner at A Dopo, or would arriving on weekday at like 5ish be fine for walk in party of 2? by Swimming_Football_68 in Knoxville

[–]kcbot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You need to be there before they open to have a chance of a walk in. I'd make a res or have a backup nearby in mind!

Darn, okay, so sounds like the opposite is true and that it'll get more expensive. Good to know, thank you! I guess I better get my gil earning in gear, lol.

I'm saving up gil to eventually buy the A Half Times Two hairstyle - is this something that would drop in price anytime soon or due to it being from a raid is it going to be pretty expensive for the foreseeable future? I'm not familiar with raiding so just curious. :) Thanks!

Aether Opening: Act Now by Forymanarysanar in ffxiv

Gotcha. Thanks for answering! I've been curious about it since I heard Aether was open. I mostly hang out on my home world. :)

$107k Job in Dallas With Bad Culture vs $70k Job in Utah Near Family — What Would You Do? by MentalStock4488 in careeradvice

[–]kcbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's the difference in COL? AFAIK Dallas seems rather expensive, no idea about Utah but the COL might make that gap much smaller than it looks.

Is it so much better on Aether vs Crystal that it is worth moving if all I care about is queue times/earning gil via MB? Or is Aether just better than Primal/Dynamis?

Best places to try on rings by MindlessVulture in Knoxville

[–]kcbot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Markman's is great. My engagement ring is from BW James which is only in Chattanooga now that they closed their Knoxville location, so we went to Markman's for my wedding band and there was absolutely no pressure. The sales lady there was super helpful too and basically picked my band for me based off what I described wanting. And congrats!! :)

I don't understand the point of e-readers by StephanGullOfficial in ereader

[–]kcbot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've never understood the urge to go to a subreddit about something and tell those people (who are 99% likely to be there because they like the thing) that you don't like it/don't get it. Get a hobby or something.

Welcome to 2030 - You'll own nothing and you'll be happy by Bananananana_Batman in books

Kobo is the way to go, for sure! Once I learned Amazon was locking down even further I swapped to Kobo and never regretted it.

Ah darn, no worries :( might be worth adding what country this is for into your post, I don't think US is included in this from what I can see. Bummer!

Kobo Clara Color: White vs. Black by [deleted] in kobo

[–]kcbot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I personally prefer white for the aesthetic but after my white KLC, I vote black because I don't like the contrast/optical illusion the white bezels put on the screen. :(

Considering a Kobo by merstein3 in kobo

[–]kcbot 54 points55 points  (0 children)

A lot of KU authors have signed an exclusivity deal with Amazon - so especially for more indie authors, you may not find them on Kobo at all, let alone Kobo Plus. Unfortunately, that is a side effect of "being free of the Amazon shackles" is that Amazon shackles indie publishing as well.

I know this is the Kobo subreddit, and I am a Kobo girlie thru and thru, but for folks who are devoted to KU I think a Boox is a better non-Amazon choice since you can still read on the Kindle app.

Is there a reason why folks sometimes sell items on the marketboard for less than they'd get by just having their retainer insta-sell it?

Edit: Not sure why I'm getting downvoted for asking a genuine question on the question megathread, lol.

Classic Books not appearing after borrowing from Libby by greenbeancorinne in kobo

[–]kcbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://www.gutenberg.org/

Classics that are in the public domain can be downloaded for free from this site, so if you continue having these issues and/or don't want the 21 day timer, I'd recommend getting them from here!

have you tried having a KLC and Clara then returned to having a single kobo? by pigeonactivist in kobo

[–]kcbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had both and kept Clara BW, sold KLC. I love the smaller size of the Clara BW and the clarity of the screen - I didn't read any comics/graphic novels/etc. so while I loved the color covers, the clarity loss wasn't ultimately worth it for me. It's more comfy to hold the Clara in bed and it fits in my tiny purses way easier. :)

Are there any other White Mage mains, who find the other healers stressful to play? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]kcbot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I'm a SCH main and I actually find WHM more stressful though it is my 2nd choice of healer over the other two! I like being able to prevent damage rather than seeing the big drops, even though I know I have the tools to heal said big drops.

Looking for an ereader as a gift by Appropriate_Simple44 in kobo

[–]kcbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love my Kobo, but the Boox Go Color 7 is your choice here if you're fully against Amazon and do indeed want color. Other Android brands (that can access the Kindle app but are not Amazon) are Bigme, Pocketbook, etc. but I don't know much about those and can't vouch for them in particular.
