    For the last 3 years, not previous three winners. Just because this year has no winner yet doesn't mean we shouldn't count it yet. If he wanted to include the winner from 4 years ago he should have used more precise language.

    OP didn't follow rule 1 in excluding Bubbles. There is no winner for this past year, Foler won the year before, and wormie the year before that. Bubbles won as a result of campaigning in the fourth year past.

    Tax Brackets. There's also standard deduction, but I hit a number that will give me that well before I'll retire, so a lower contribution and natural returns will almost certainly take me over standard deduction too.

    401k is tax wise pretty much always superior to a brokerage until you can guarantee 47.1k/year in retirement, and still relatively better until you can get like 191k/year in retirement in it, which obviously is a lot more than 99.99% of 401ks. The difference after 47.1k isn't that big generally...

    Predator: Badlands

    Disney has a lot of experience being predators to be fair. Also of course I warned my dad. My dad voted for kamala to give you an idea of how much of a stupid boomer he is, so it didn't work. He said I missed out on a good movie.

    I decided to research this subject because I like to be informed when I speak. The GAAP method allows the accountant to make a determination on depreciation that is informed by past experience, industry norms, and manufacturers claims among other things. The biggest thing is that such a...

    I just figured it would be normal to adjust your books based on observable reality rather than accountants being told how fast things depreciate at accounting school and not allowed to adapt from that.

    Maybe it’s better products? I was genuinely shocked at how good the quality of the last mono I bought was. That thing was a tank and clearly the best quality mobo I’ve ever bought, and I don’t buy cheap crap when it’s computers.

    This does not deviate from current physics models at all. While I wont contend that there's not lots of dark matter magic retardation that goes on with wider scale models, this is not a strong example to point to. Obviously its off-gassing a ton, but we're not seeing anything. Wracking my brain...

    I don't even find myself tempted to look at the numbers often anymore. For my non-automatic accounts, money goes into account, I put it in stocks and then I close it for 6 months.

    Europa Universalis V

    There's lots to like from someone like him in a game like this, but what I really want to see is what he does when his 99/99/99 prince becomes king and then dies to a drunken hunting accident 1 month later and is replaced by a 00/01/00 inbred nephew that reigns for a 100 years.

    It was 4 hits base, but 8x when he flurried. When defensive dropped he could and did frequently 1 shot tanks. In Era I think a good MT had around 6.9k hps, so he was 100% doing more than that, which is not possible with just 4 hits.

    Tasted incredible, I love how guanciale's fat gives you the most pleasant smokey aftertaste of almost any food. This shit is pretty legit and totally a steal for 3$ a pound if you got a WinCo nearby. I found it next to the bag of bacon scraps.

    Guanciale skin side down, then a cross section. Very nice smokey smell to it. Just gotta cut the skin off and then dice it small. The look is definitely spot on for guanciale. Was able to pull the skin off with my fingers. This is how I dice it for carbonara, basically matchsticks top down so...

    This was a fun movie. Sure it wasn't perfect, but I'm 100% gonna see this at theaters to satisfy my 1 movie every 5-10 years. I loved how stupid and convoluted their plan to fight godzilla was.

    Guanciale I’ve had has all been smoked. This stuff I got looks pretty heavily smoked. Since people keep talking about it I’ll cook it tomorrow morning if I got time and take some pictures.

    It’s 546$ atm for two weeks, and most bullet trains start at 100$ a ticket. 3 day trips and it pays for itself. I can see situations where it doesn’t make sense, but the cities in Japan can be so incredibly different and cool in their own ways, and Shinkansen is awesome, so I can’t see going...

    I make carbonara with it usually. It’s basically extra fatty bacon, and then you incorporate that fat into a bacon fat egg and cheese sauce. Incredibly delicious and you are missing out on the good things in life if you like bacon and have never had carbonara guanciale. It’s super simple and...
