Re: You bought the 3D printer. Do you still use it? - 2 days ago

PLA will melt at temperatures such as in a car during the summer. PETG will hold up to these temps, but you’ll need to upgrade some parts on the Ender3D to handle PETG.

I have an Ender 3Dv2. Paid about $200 and don't use it much. My wood working skills for making small boxes is much better than my 3D printing skills.

That’s a great picture of the Battleship Texas that was just put into dry dock 8/31/22. Looks great for a ship that was launched 18 May 1912 and served in WW1 and WW2.

I’m fairly sure you cannot move one old 401k to another old 401k. Instead, roll the old 401k to a traditional IRA at the broker you like. Typically there are no fees with this process.

Re: [401(k)] I feel a little dumb asking this question. There's so much info out there on it, it's hard to find a good starting place. - 25 days ago

If your current employer offers a 401k, I recommend trying to consolidate the 401k’s with your current employer. A 401k has some advantages over an IRA, such as stronger protection from being sued, ability to withdraw from a 401k without penalty once you separate from your current employer at age 55 or later. Otherwise, I would consolidate into a traditional IRA. There are no taxes due. Fide

A survey seems prudent. If she is planning to add a shed, the town would probably require a survey to insure the setback requirement is met.

Re: *rant* Car insurance *rant* - 4 weeks ago

In my experience, the police report is usually available a few days after the accident. File a claim with the other insurance company. When the other company offers a settlement, you may want to talk to your insurance agent BEFORE agreeing to the settlement.

Re: Select Best Buy Stores: Apple MacBook Pro M2 (2022): 13.3", 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD $1099 - 2 months ago

The SSD speed is on the 256 GB M2 MBP is slow - half the speed of the M1 MBP according to MacRumors The reason is Apple switched to a 1 chip SSD on the M2 MBP. The M1 MBP used a 2 chip SSD wired in parallel. If you want a fast M2 MBP, it would be wise to upgrade to the 2 chip 512 GB SSD for $200

Re: Ford Fusions EV's are now disposable - 2 months ago

Ford needs to do a better job warrantying their electric or hybrid cars. By comparison, you'll get a 10 year/100,000 mile warranty on the HV battery on a Toyota Prius. A new battery from Toyota will cost about $4,000.

Just check on the DMV websites of the seller's state and buyer's state. The DMV websites should list the process, forms, documentation and fees involved, including if state sales tax is due at the DMV.
