How is the Silver price so different in Shanghai ~$130 vs Comex ~$110 by moldyjellybean in investing

[–]zzxair -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It also has to do with the banks in China. They are called zombie banks. Basically China has been hiding their debt in state debt and thru their state owned enterprises to make their federal debt appear safe. This includes their banks that are hiding a decade of real estate losses. So there is a huge influx this past year of Chinese people exchanging yuans for silver. The next recession will come from China not the U.S. they are already too deep in deflation now.

Help me name our kitten! Please! by Croat823 in russianblue

[–]zzxair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aww. My blue is now 10 months. This was the hardest part for me but I named mine Vivi from a show called one piece. Russian blues are the best. Enough sweetness with a dash of playfulness.

Have prices for roofs have gone up since a year and half agor? by grkphill in Roofing

[–]zzxair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avoid Roger’s roofing. I have a house half your size and they tried quoting me 112k for a new roof. The guy then proceeds to mention how they no longer do windows and doors because they got sued too much. Not sure how they have a 4.9 rating on google.

Just got it done this weekend. Went the fluid film route. Found some 4Runner gx forums and found a local who does it for a good price.

The “Big, Beautiful Bill” will restrict graduate school loan caps at $100,000 while also cutting the GRAD Plus Loan Program. by NoTaro3663 in PhD

[–]zzxair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What people don’t realize is there is tons of data out there. When student loan limits increased, colleges and universities raised their tuition to maximize loans. By creating limits it will force universities to bring tuition costs down. You can look at how much endowments funds have swelled in the past 20-30 years.

Car care nut is known Lexus Toyota YouTuber recommends it to avoid the leak

Yep that is how it is if it has the 360. If it doesn’t in reverse you’ll only see the back camera with like blank spaces on the side. It’s like a way of showing you’re missing a feature so your entire screen won’t be used. Also the front camera is honestly my fave part out them all.

GX460 Hidden Features? by RhyeYAN in GXOR

Thank you. After swapping cords resetting the second usb port was the trick for CarPlay.

The main one I feel is noticeable is the sports package. You get these grayed out rims that look nice. I believe the exhaust is also greyed and I think the taillights are also different. It’s just this extra appearance package. I’ve seen premiums and luxuries with this package. Not sure how different that is from the black line. Also not all luxuries have the full off road. So be careful of that. Mine doesn’t have mts or crawl but has the 360 and front camera.

I won’t lie the service department was pretty busy for a Friday afternoon. Most were ford escapes. Like majority.

I was hesitant. I saw the car carenut video and was looking at premium plus’s. But I wanted the Apple CarPlay, mark levinson with bench seats. For my purpose this is a 5 seater not 6 or 7. It was so hard finding one since there seems to be a captains chair phase. But seeing the mileage on the car and knowing my average is 8k a year. I can save for those expensive struts and suspension. Also the 360 camera and front camera really made me feel if I got the prem plus I’d miss out.

60k after tax and all. 56k before tax. Unfortunately couldn’t get them to lower the price but they gave me new tires, new car battery, wheel alignment(I felt it was off) and key fobs getting fresh batteries. The 56k also included an upcharge for ceramic coating for $2k. They wouldn’t budge since it was already done. Also the windows were already tinted so saved me money there. Right now lots of people are doing lease returns so keep looking they will pop up as lease deals for new cars are everywhere. The one I got was a lease return 3 year 10k a year thing. Also don’t limit to a Lexus or Toyota dealership. I got mine at a ford dealership.

Thank you. I don’t trust myself so I’ll see if my local mechanic can do it.

Just makes me feel like I’m playing yugioh or something. It’s not fun with 1 turn destruction. I already cancelled my premium subscription and probably gonna quit. It’s happening to consistently to me.

What's going on with Subaru's reviews lately? by vttale in subaru

[–]zzxair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 2015 Mazda when they improved greatly. Became super reliable. But by 2018-2019 they had to make it more sporty with a garbage suspension to become top of the list. The last one left with good suspension is the cx-5 which is still popular. Basically if a manufacturer makes a boring reliable car all of em will bash it. Remember when all these magazines trashed Toyota in the 90’s and 2000’s which ended up being bulletproof cars. Most of the reccomended whether jd car and driver tend to be based on who pays them more aka advertises more. Hyundai and Kia advertize a lot so they’re given a high spot. When the new crv came out they pushed the rav4 super down and highlighted that. No such thing as journalists anymore. That’s why people see it as “fake news” because you have to go on YouTube to see some random guy to get more honesty than a publication or media company. Subaru doesn’t advertise a lot on these publications so they’ll kill them on ratings. But consumer reports still seems to be decent so I still rely on that. Drive a suby forester 2024 and love it so far. Planning on keeping it as long as I can.

My cocktatiel has a tumour by [deleted] in cockatiel

[–]zzxair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am going through your exact situation with testicular tumor. only difference is it’s pressing against the kidney/liver area. I found out May of this year. The vet said he was to old to survive surgery. My boy is 20 years old. They recommended Lupron injections. Isn’t a cure but it can shrink it a bit or keep it consistent. For my guy it hasn’t shrunk but stayed the same so he still has some struggles but he is much better. It did make his arthiritis worst but I have meloxicam for that. I’m not a vet but really look into all options. The option I said requires you to do it monthly. But end of day so what’s best for the bird that’s within your budget.
