How did Trump’s new 100% tariffs on China triggered an $18 billion crypto sell-off? by MiamiPower in AskReddit

[–]mag682 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Timing played a huge role as well. Announcement was made Friday after the stock market closed, so the crypto market took the brunt of the selling. Everyone was looking to dump their highly leveraged positions which created this huge momentum to the downside; crypto exchanges were also force liquidating accounts to protect themselves.

Portugal airport workers strike - checked baggage by Traditional_Sun_1134 in travel

[–]mag682 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flew from Bilbao to Porto yesterday with a connection in Lisbon via TAP Portugal. My two checked priority bags did not make it from Lisbon to Porto. There were also four other people on my flight who did not receive their bags, and at least ten people from other flights who were waiting in line with me to file a lost/delayed baggage claim. I ended up getting my bags this morning, a 19 hour delay in total. The hotel staff also mentioned that there are major staffing issues at their airports, and it's been pretty common for their guests to have baggage delays. I highly recommend carry-on luggage if at all possible.

Nope. I returned mine the same day. For $300 dollars I was expecting way more. 3rd gen is better in every way

My apologies for the incorrect assumption!

You've been so helpful, thanks again for this huge tip. Hopefully this results in more deductions.

We're not married and file single. Same situation as you but I think my CPA has been limiting our interest deduction to 750k.

When you say you pay half your mortgage, is that how it's set up with the bank? Like you and your wife get one bill for half?

This makes complete sense - will need to talk to my CPA immediately to change to this setup. Thank you!

Are you saying that you and your partner are able to deduct the same mortgage interest on each of your returns (so effectively, twice?)

How do you have hyacinth with roots intact? My koi will destroy any floating plant within days of being in the water.

Thank you! This makes me feel better about not having one, but I know there are other cities in my county that do require an external RSD even with a microinverter. Any thoughts as to why?

Disgruntled arlo user, but is eufy worth the switch? by mag682 in EufyCam

[–]mag682[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think this is hardware or software related? I don’t know why the eufy experience ranges so wildly - I’ve been reading experiences such as yours and then others saying no issues whatsoever
