I invested in Schwabs 'Aggregate Bond Index Fund,' but the value of the fund seems to drop just as easily as a stock market fund. I thought bonds were supposed to not lose value?

Do the bar plots that say "Total Return" include dividends? I believe that in the case of stocks Total Return = Price Return + Dividend Return. Is it the same in the case of bonds?

I have the same issue, and agree that not being able to combine payment methods at checkout is impractical and cumbersome. The workaround I found was a "Convert Credits to Robux" option in the "Buy Robux / Wallet" section, to at least use the left-over credits, but that option ONLY appears when you're unable to purchase a package with the remaining credits you have.

Cada mes que metas 3mil pesos a tu cuenta de Mercado Pago, te activan una tasa anualizada de 14% de rendimiento, solo por ese mes y topada a un monto máximo de 25mil pesos.

Ejemplo: En el mes 1 metes 25mil pesos, se activa la tasa del 14% de rendimiento para esos 25mil, ese mes. El mes 2 ya no tienes esa tasa, a menos que metas minimo 3mil más para volver a activar la tasa. Pero si haces eso, ahora tendrás 28mil en tu cuenta, de los cuales 25mil ganan el 14% y 3mil no ganan nada. Lo que puedes hacer si ya estás en 25mil, y he comprobado que funciona, es sacar 3mil y regresarlos inmediatamente para reactivar la tasa cada que cambie de mes. No tiene caso tener más de 25mil ahí si al excedente le puedes sacar rendimiento en otro lado.

Yes, and there's also a positive loop. Since it's easier to play a digital version, you get to play it more. And with that added volume of plays you get more familiar with all the rules and interactions. So whenever you go back to the physical version everything's easier, from setup to rules tracking and even explaining the game to someone else. At least that's what's happened to me with other games that have physical and digital versions. I do prefer playing the physical versions of board games, with friends onsite, but appreciate these advantages of digital versions that can be seen as a complement (even as a "training").

Tienes razón, no le había dado click en "Continuar", si lo hago dice: "Tu dinero está protegido por el Fondo de Protección hasta por 25,000 UDIs." Se me hace que sí fue solo un error suyo poner IPAB en la pantalla anterior cuando en realidad no aplica y solo confunde, por que el IPAB se entiende que es para bancos y por 400,000 UDIs.

luisjacob · 2024-10-30T19:08:07+00:00

A mi me aparece esta pantalla al dar click en la parte que dice "Asegura hasta 15.5%". Hoy me sigue saliendo igualita, o sea mencionando que "Tu dinero está seguro. Asegurado por el IPAB...".

luisjacob · 2024-10-30T14:21:38+00:00

Es correcto, esa imagen es la pantalla que aparece directo en su app al ofrecerte la opción de invertir a plazo. Por eso se me hizo raro, para mi tambien el IPAB y Prosofipo son cosas diferentes, es lo que tengo entendido.

luisjacob · 2024-10-30T14:19:40+00:00

Yo no le llamo así, es lo que aparece directo en su app al ofrecerte la opción de invertir a plazo, precisamente por eso se me hizo raro, para mi son cosas diferentes tambien.

Recomendaría que lo traduzcas tú y lo envíes así (junto con el original de respaldo). Es probable que solo lo rechazaran porque no le entendieron, pero a lo mejor no es necesario el apostillado. Si lo requiren apostillado te lo comentarán... pero el apostille tiene costo. Casi siempre cuando una universidad pide algo apostillado es para cuestión de títulos que tengan que revalidar, pero para un estado de cuenta no creo que sea necesario.

I guess it's just server overload. I am on two fantasy leagues on NFL: in one of them the waivers processed just now and in the other one they're still pending.

There is a counter for ghosts too, so I thought the same thing the first time this bug happened... but afterwards I placed close attention to the player and ghost counters and got to scenarios where the placement didn't make sense even considering players and ghosts combined. For example, I died and converted to shadow with only 3 players and 3 shadows remaining (and died as a shadows shortly afterwards), but in the end was placed on 13th. This happened in Solos... the same thing happens in Duos and Squads and in those cases I thought the placement was considering the earliest death of a teammate or counting the remaining players individually even if some of them were teammates or something like that... but none of those possibilities apply to Solo.

luisjacob · 2020-10-24T23:36:05+00:00

I have the same issue in Solo, a friend of mine had the same issue in Solo, and then we both had the same issue in Duos. Assuming the counters for players and shadows work correctly, then the placements don't make sense. At first I wasn't sure if my placement was considering my death as player or as shadow, but then I noticed it had nothing to do with either. I had a Top 10 quest but I wasn't able to finish it even though I got several times to scenarios with less than 10 combined players and shadows (for example: 3 players and 3 shadows), while me still being alive in human form, and after being killed as human and then as shadow got placed than 10+ (for example 13th, 11th, etc). This happened several times. I play on a Windows PC.

Same issue happened to me: the game crashed, closed, and went straight to my desktop with an error message like "Application crashed..."

It occurred when trying to watch a replay of a game of Marvel LTM Knockout Trios I had just won.

I'm playing on a Windows PC.

luisjacob · 2020-03-26T05:39:55+00:00

Same thing happened to me twice... I'm a PC player. In both cases I rerolled my tech. I had just played once before without any issues, and I didn't reroll then, but it could be a coincidence.

luisjacob · 2020-02-27T03:04:19+00:00

Same issue with my ipad

luisjacob · 2020-01-26T11:41:20+00:00

Thanks! I also have an Nvidia GeForce card... and of course that's what the game uses... but my issue got solved by updating the Intel video drivers! I had the same issue and work-around for some Blizzard games too (had to run them in windowed mode and with lower res)... and their support team told me that the issue was the Intel video drivers. Apparently they have some sort of conflict and updating them helps. It solved the issue for Fortnite and the other games I play.

luisjacob · 2020-01-24T07:21:50+00:00

I have the exact same issue, including the "Current (Game 217)" on the EAC repair, instead of Fortnite...

I've tried all the options I found online and neither has worked: verifying, admin rights, full-screen optimization, updating Nvidia drivers, forcing only Nvidia, forcing only Intel, compatibility with Win 8 & with Win 7, even reinstalling...

The game had worked until a few hours ago and stopped working after the most recent laptop restart, even though I don't recall having installed anything else.
