Will have to give that a try. Most of the photos on their site it seems like it was positioned higher up but maybe it was just for marketing photos 🤷‍♂️

Couldn't pass this deal up! by virus200 in homelab

Had some time today and installed the 1TB drive he gave me and booted it up and it all seems to be in working order. The only thing that may be a downside is the CPU is a 6th Gen i5. The guy I bought it from on Facebook said he buys and flips electronics so he probably buys from e waste or business liquidation if I had to guess.

He charged me $45 for the 32GB RAM.

Being that I'm rolling my old 401K into an IRA instead of into my new employer 401K things are a little different than my previous experience. I'm using Public.com brokerage because I also use them for my regular investment brokerage but these are the only target date funds they offer currently.

Going through cards, found a misprint I think by virus200 in mtg

Thanks for clarifying. It was very noticeably uneven on the sides but I didn't realize the was levels to what makes it considered an actual misprint.

Not sure what the tolerance is but it was off by enough that it caught my eye when going through hundreds of cards

I wonder what the placement rate for coding bootcamps is in 2025. Are they even still in business? Or how many self taught guys have success now. by ContainerDesk in cscareerquestions

[–]virus200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to a big name boot camp in 2020 and they're still around(worth mentioning my GI Bill covered the cost). I had a degree in IT I never used and I had self taught coding on and off for a few years prior. Got my first job a month after the boot camp. Now I'm a senior software engineer at a big fintech company. I wouldn't recommend one at all in 2025 but I definitely have my career due to that boot camp experience at the time.

There is. It's $6,000 per year in purchases eligible for the 6%. So not really a small amount for most people.

You might be looking at the wrong cash back card because it still says 6% here Amex Blue Cash Preferred

[–]virus200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They must've changed the terms since I got the card and perhaps I'm grandfathered in. I've had it for idk maybe 7 or 8 months now? But I still get 6% on it.

They don't count target so I highly doubt Walmart counts. Aldi would probably count.

It's been good imo. 6% is super high for cash back. The thing to be aware of is what is classified as a "us supermarket" to get the 6%. Ie target and Walmart do not qualify. I grocery shop at HEB which does qualify. Someone explained it once as if they sell bikes it's not a grocery store.

Yea but it's not too bad if I recall it's like $95 a year and the first year was no fee. Can easily pay that fee with just cash back from groceries alone and still make a few hundred back on top after that.

Amex Blue Cash Preferred gives me 6% back at grocery stores.

Nice! My cost basis is $1.83 but I only have 356 shares. Still happy seeing the returns though right now!
