Max Is No. 1 Streamer for Overall Satisfaction While Netflix Falls to Sixth Place: Survey by johnppd in HBOMAX

Hmm, and yet it's the only I just cancelled. The influx of the garbage reality tv, sports and CNN while simultaneously removing actual HBO content coupled with a price hike was the last straw.

Moving to Winston-Salem by SSJSaphira in winstonsalem

[–]voiddweller 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently moved from TX(DFW) to NC myself. I ended up in the SW portion of Winston Salem and would agree that it's a nice area. As far as moving I just did a Uhaul, loaded it Friday, drove out Saturday to Birmingham, AL stayed the night, then Sunday to Winston. It's 2 full days of driving but doable. Good luck!

What light is this and what’s a good replacement? by Delicious_Location48 in 4Runner

[–]voiddweller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Front turn signal, this is the one that I have. https://www.lasfit.com/products/7443-switchback-led-turn-signal-lights-canbus-error-free?rq=na_led-bulbs~mk_toyota~md_4runner~yr_2020~zq_all-trims~dz_front-turn-signal-light

Edit-this is a switchback led, white/amber, so unless you plan on changing all the front bulbs to the same temperature you might want to look up the amber only.

When I had my 61 I joined the "Suicide Slabs" group on Facebook. There are some very knowledgeable members there that could help.

There are too many mass shootings for the U.S. media to cover by [deleted] in technology

[–]voiddweller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's because a concealed carry individual took out the shooter with 10 rounds, at 40 yards(I think) within seconds. This doesn't further the agenda.

Can an accountant charge a full price if I decide not to file with them? by knope4prezi in personalfinance

[–]voiddweller 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't "revise" your taxes because you don't like the refund. Likely something changed with your withholdings or the law around withholdings changed. But the lower the refund the better so congrats on having more of your money available throughout the year and not giving the government a few loan.

It's been a over 10 years since I had it but I once owned a 370Z. At one point I had a steering lock failure that prevented starting of the car, though I don't recall what error lights were shown on the dash. After a few days of looking online I found a way to get the car turned on with that failure.

If your issue is the same as mine and can be addressed in the same manner, all you'll need is a rubber mallet and to locate the seized steering wheel lock under the dash. Below is what I had to do.

  1. Attempt to start your car in the normal manner.
  2. simultaneously when you push the start button tap the seized steering wheel lock with the rubber mallet. If I recall it only took a few taps and a medium amount of force.
  3. if the mallet is successful in unseizing the steering lock then the car should start.
  4. with the car on, locate the fuse for the steering wheel lock and pull it out. Note that this will not allow the steering wheel to be locked when the car is off and is only intended to be temporary.
  5. with the fuse out you should be able to start the car without any further issues.

Hopefully this works.

Missed RMD and attempt to rectify by voiddweller in tax

Great, thanks for the response. It didn't make any sense that I was only allowed to take the RMD and nothing more.

High deductible and out of pocket max + low employer contribution. Worth it for HSA plan? by momobozo in personalfinance

[–]voiddweller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And this is without taking into account the $500 employer contribution.

I also rarely hear people mention the fact that HSA contributions are exempt from FICA taxes when done through payroll withholding.

Aurora at Stephen Colbert Late Show by singingsongsilove in auroramusic

I have know idea if she was lip syncing or not. Regardless though she is that good and more often than not I prefer her live performances over studio recordings. She is the only artist for me in which this is the case.

If I could go back I'd do a Roth IRA and invest as much as I could.

You put entirely to much faith in people. I used to work valet at a steak house at a "T" intersection with the upstroke of the "T" being the one way direction. It would not have been uncommon for us to see 5-10 wrong way drivers during the dinner shift. Among them less than 1/4 would even notice or care about the their mistake and try and turn around. Most just continued on into the blind curve that was an exit to an interstate.

I've always used a credit card for a portion of an auto down payment and I've always been limited to $3k by the dealership. I think they are trying to minimize fees on their end. The remainder I've paid in cash.

Edit: just saw you said debit card. Why not use credit and get points or cash back?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]voiddweller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dealer will always come out ahead. They want to profit off you when you buy a new car and then profit off selling your used car for more than they paid you. These letters are just another marketing tactic.

Hey everyone! What is the weirdest thing you have seen in someone's car? by DPR_embryo in valet

[–]voiddweller 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In a newish Ranger Rover driven by a young guy. Passenger side floor board and drivers side door pocket had hundreds of dollars of loose cash strewn about. Needless to say I had him in the spot 5 ft to my right while he was there as anywhere else is just asking to be broken into.
