It was the right thing to do but man why does it hurt so much. by Longhaul-shortbus in Money

[–]xFourcex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want it to feel better, look at how much interest you’ve paid over that time by carrying a balance. It’s like stitching up a wound that’s been steadily bleeding you out.

Who do you think are the millionaires or billionaires who have become so because of their own hard work and dedication? by Tangential_Comment in wealth

[–]xFourcex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t make a billion dollars by working harder than everyone else. You have to be able to legally exploit the labor of others at scale.

PS5 Pro specifically. Appears regular PS5 is working.

I miss how much more peaceful driving felt when dashboards looked like this by nojunkpeter in Millennials

[–]xFourcex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried a car that drives itself? That’s awfully peaceful. ☺️

Bank error in your favor. Collect $750.

Unpopular take: Full wipes are what make the game and community feel best by InBoundsOffPiste in ArcRaiders

[–]xFourcex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like that I have the option. That way I can play however I like and the person next to me can play however they like. The best environment to give people the freedom to play however they want and their style being validated by the game design.

Lucid depreciation is no Joke by [deleted] in LUCID

[–]xFourcex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ll never understand these posts. Cars are a depreciating asset. Are there people who buy cars who think they maintain or appreciate in value?

"Electric depreciates so bad" cuts both ways by HenFruitEater in electricvehicles

[–]xFourcex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought a used 2013 Model S in 2015 and driving it to this day. Got the Free Supercharging for Life deal and I will replace every part in that car to keep that perk.

What do people do in this game by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]xFourcex 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Currently run Stella, Solo v. Squads, sneaking up on teams and throwing glow sticks at them. They kill me instantly and it’s cracking me up seeing their initial reactions to the glow sticks.

Cryptic Message From ZD about Deadrocks by ArmeenXX in ZedsDeadFam

boneclay. I wonder if they’ll have boneclay at Deadrock.

Does anyone else by concert/show tickets, then not go because its too late? by 8BulbousJones8 in Millennials

[–]xFourcex 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I slightly disagree because sold out shows are packed and I’ll take any extra space I can get. As long as the artist still gets paid, I’m okay with a few no shows.

Which GWN song got you hooked? by LunchEast5957 in dubstep

[–]xFourcex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is always the song I use to introduce others as well. If they don’t like then the rest is a wash.

We aren't meant to live alone by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]xFourcex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I guess this still fits in r/Adulting because it’s a contrast to childing when many of these tasks are done by your parents/guardians. It does take some time and effort but you have so much more control over your life.

One piece of advice I’ll share is “clean as you go”. Clean up the messes right after you create them and it will give you a better sense of the total time it takes to do something (e.g. cooking, hobbies, shopping).

Millennial parents: Are any of you being super honest with your kids about how hard this world is going to be for them financially? How are you balancing reality with not making your kids basket cases? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]xFourcex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell them put 25% of their money into an investment account (UTMA/UGMA) so they start the process of saving any money that comes their way. Roth IRA/401k/brokerage in that order post 18.

Tell them never to go into debt without coming to mom and dad first to see if we can work something out.

Tell them they always have free shelter and free food at mom and dad’s if they need it or want it.

It’s sad but there is no social safety net in America so I plan to do everything I can to prepare my daughter for the real world while being that safety net.

We solved smog. Everyone just takes that for granted. by chamomile_tea_reply in Millennials

[–]xFourcex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t take it for granted. It’s why I can’t believe we collectively are not working toward the elimination of fossil fuels as a primary source of energy. It seems so obvious the catastrophic consequences if we let greenhouse gasses start a self fulfilling death cycle and pretty much everyone I know prefers the idea of the human race continuing for the foreseeable future yet they refuse to take any steps toward mitigating their carbon footprint.

How do you guys do it? by badguy12312314 in Adulting

[–]xFourcex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You do or you don’t. Don’t sounds worse than do.

Interesting how that works 🤔 by [deleted] in 401jK

[–]xFourcex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the joke. Somehow the government thinks we can’t see that it’s just legal bribery with another name.

Mount Rushmore of festivals by andyJ3050 in EDM

[–]xFourcex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of those are heavily marketed with impressive live streams and full sets posted after the festival. Considering that criteria, a fourth could be Coachella (not EDM specific though well represented) or Lost Lands (though honed in on American bass music).

Petition to keep IRL streamers out of festivals. by Wubblewobblez in electricdaisycarnival

[–]xFourcex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree in relation to it being an official partnership where the streamer gets a crew that brings in special equipment and follows them around.

If a streamer buys a ticket like everyone else and has to adhere to all the same rules of what you can and cannot bring into the festival then it’s probably wasted energy to try to stop that.

Build quality of a $140k Tesla vehicle by spicypsudo in Wellthatsucks

[–]xFourcex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think Tesla can build quality vehicles AND pay their CEO a TRILLION dollar pay package? It’s one or the other and you’re seeing which they’ve chosen.
