Retirement in the USA is a scam in c/[email protected]

If your portfolio is down that much over that period of time, you are likely not making good investment choices. S&P500 is up like 50% since 2021...

Your losses or lack of portfolio growth isn't really something to complain about online without more info on what your asset mix is. Unless your goal was just to complain, and not get any advice from helpful anons that are having more success in investment choices.

It’s invested in total market funds, some tech, some big cap companies, and healthcare

Tech, big cap, and healthcare are already part of the total market funds, so you're over-weighting (taking excess risk) by investing that way. Assuming you're pretty young based on time in market, you'd be fine with just the total market fund, until you have more experience with the market or just want a set and forget, for a while.

The US is the primary military force protecting Taiwan, by treaty. That's likely why.

Biden says Elon Musk was an 'illegal worker' when he began U.S. career in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 week ago

IIRC, he was in the US on a student visa. Then he dropped out and started working. Wouldn't that mean his visa would be voided, and he then become gasp and illegal immigrant?

Who is more racist Trump or Trudeau? in c/[email protected]

Trump took out newspaper ads calling for the execution of innocent black men. But tea, some face paint is worse.

Trump ground game faces new fraud claims as video shows door-knock hack in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

This is because they are paid for the canvassing, right? I can't fathom a reason why to bother with this, if not for that. Other than maybe some Dem tomfoolery to skew the ground game reporting, I guess.

Walking in short bursts found to consume 20% to 60% more energy than walking continuously for same distance in c/[email protected]

This is fascinating. I hate the treadmill due to the monotony of doing that for 20-20 minutes. If I could break that up into 5-minute chunks over the course of the day, it's less monotonous, for sure.

Investing billions

Weren't the headlines a week or two ago about Microsoft trying to get taxpayer funded aid for reopening 3-mile Island? Companies shouldn't be asking for taxpayer funded handouts when they are basically printing money at this point.

Fucking Woodward. We're going to be getting these tidbits dropped all the way through the election. This guy and his antics to sell books...

Any way to change background color of CarPlay's "Now Playing" view? (lemmy.world)
 

For me, it's a light grey color and the text is white, even when CarPlay is set to always use dark mode. This is hard for me to read, but I can't find any way to change this. I'd rather just have an actual dark background when in dark mode.

Request: Make it faster to switch accounts (lemmy.world)
 

For folks using multiple accounts, it feels a bit buried to go from content in one to the other. It would be nice if the number of taps to go between different accounts was reduced by a few.

"Mark read on scroll" doesn't work reliably (lemmy.world)
 

I don’t know if this is the app, instance issues, or both, but I’ve found this feature to not work well

Feature request: Swipe through image posts in feed (lemmy.world)
 

I think it would be cool to be able to swipe left/right when viewing an image post from the feed or in a community and be able to go from post to post like a slideshow.

[Bug] Swipe left to reply in Inbox just marks comment "read" and hides it (lemmy.world)
 

Reproduced in latest release today. When I swipe left on a comment in Inbox to reply to it, it just hides it. If I go to the All view and re-swipe left, it'll open the reply dialog. So it appears to only be a bug if you have the view set to Unread.

Accessibility abandoned? (lemmy.world)
 

Build 72 seems to be the nail in the coffin for font scaling. All text is tiny now. It's there any plan to support accessibility?

Request: Favorite communities without subscribing (lemmy.world)
 

Some communities will have a deluge of posts, which tend to astroturf the main feed. I loved the feature in Apollo that let us mark a sub as a favorite to make it easy to get to, without subscribing to it and having it hit the main feed.

Can we get the option to put the voting buttons on the left? Also, view on ipad is truncating the titles when there is plenty of room.

When the app launches fresh, it seems to default to All instead of what I had before (Subscribed).

EDIT: I just found the setting for this. I don't recall seeing it before, but happy it's there!

Feature request: Better color contrast for voting buttons (lemmy.world)
 

In dark mode, when viewing the voting buttons, could we get higher-contrast coloring when a post is voted on? The upvote coloring is nearly impossible for me to distinguish from the default un-voted color (light blue vs. grey). I'm using the darkly theme, but darkly red has the same challenge. Using browser extensions to override this is only an option for desktop-only usage.
