  • Is there anything similar to a debit card that is free?

    I don't have a debit card. I don't even have a bank account because they charge monthly and I always have cash. I only get maybe 5 checks a year that I need to deposit/cash and it isn't worth being billed all the months out of the year that I don't use it. I make online purchases every once in a while, but I just give money to friends and have them order it for me. It's really inconvenient.

    Is there any kind of account or system I can get that can be beneficial to me?

    I would need it to:

    -Not charge me monthly

    -Not require a curtain amount be kept in it

    -be able to make online purchases

    -be refillable

    -be able to deposit checks into the account

  • Are there any games that have modes similar to the battles in the origional Star Wars Battlefront 2?

    I've been playing the origional Star Wars Battlefront 2 recently and I love the domination style battles they have with the 150 people on each team and whoever captures all the points or kills all the enemy team first wins. Lots of maps, lots of fun. Is there anything else like it?

  • Does anyone know what these toys were called?

    They were tiny little knights/orcs and they sometimes came with mich bigger dragons, but you could get them separately as well.

    The little knight/orcs were only about an inch tall, they were all plastic, their legs didn't move. They could bend at the waist, shoulders, and wrists, and that was it. I think they were kind of Lego-esk. The weapons they came with were always way oversized compared to them.

  • What are the bare necessities that someone needs to get by in today's society?

    I understand that you can get by with absolutely nothing and a minimum wage job if you wanted, but I mean aside from public utilities like the city bus or pay phones. Things like this:

    You need a phone that can call, for work. You don't need a smart phone, touch screen, you don't need anything fancy like that. As long as your employer is able to call you and get a hold of you to set up interviews or whatever is all you need.

    You don't need several nice cars, all you need is one single reliable vehicle.

    You don't need name bran clothes, fancy shoes or anything like that, just nice clothes that fit. They don't have to be expensive.

    And I know it is an unpopular opinion, but you don't need a college education really. If someone buckled down on bad spending, you can actually get by making 10 bucks an hour. If you start spending money on junk food or fast food all the time then it would be near impossible, but if you have good self control, you could technically get bye

    Anyone else got more examples of things that we only think need, but actually we just want?

  • What is the most effective way to remove paint from a Sharpie paint pen?

    I work at an ornament kiosk in the mall that sells hand painted ornaments. We write on the ornaments if customers want us to with a sharpie paint pen. When we spell a name wrong or the paint pen drips onto an ornament we need a good way of getting the paint off the ornaments without taking the origional paint off the ornament.

    Right now we use fingernail polish remover, q-tips, and a magic eraser. It works alright but it is difficult and time consuming.

    Is there an easier/more efficient method?

  • Did anyone go through school without hating it?

    I understand that people like to see their friends and I understand that school is nessesairy in society. I actually kind if like school.

    But God damn it sucks. It stresses me out and I don't have time for it. I want to work so I can pay rent and but food. Now I'm back in school and it just doesn't seem worth it. Yeah the payoff WAYYY down the line is good. But for now it's just so draining.

    Did any of you go through school without ever feeling like you are wasting your time?

  • Is it possible to be successful and poor? Also, is it possible to be rich and unsuccessful?

    Someone I know believes that if you have money you are automatically happy and successful, and if you are poor, you are automatically unhappy and unsuccessful respectively.

    Any time I say it is possible to be rich and poor he always just says "It's pretty hard to be depressed in a new Lamborghini" and he is CONVINCED that AS long as you have money, you are just happy regardless or what may happen.

  • Why can't I adjust the aspect ratio of my tv/xbox?

    Going into the tv menu options for display and all ofnhtnjustbhas to do with color and things like that. None of it has to do with the fact that the image is stretched.

    I'm okay with adjusting the resolution of the tv or the Xbox to fix it, but neither of them have the option for me.

  • I have an Emerson T.V. and the aspect ratio seems to be wayy off. How do i change it?

    I plugged in my Xbox and I can t see the top of anything.

    I went into the Xbox setting to try and fix it and it showed me the minimum and maximum ratios. It is like the tv is too short for the resolution.. I tried to go into the tv menu options and I couldn t find anything on the aspect ratios or screen adjustments.

    Is there a way to do it? I looked it up online and the instructions I saw didn t apply to this tv. Or is there a way I can adjust the Xbox settings?

  • What is, and when do you throw a house warming party?

    Is that when you have a bunch of people come and walk through your house to see what you just bought? Or is that an open house? Or are they the same thing?

    Is it after you have your house fully furnished? Or is it supposed to be shortly after you first get the house, regardless of furnishment?

    If I'm going from an apartment to a house, there will be a lot if empty rooms still and it would look kind of baron. Would I wait until i have all the rooms furnished to some extent?

  • Why can t I find the video file on my computer?

    Okay, so I have a video file on my phone. I plugged my phone into my computer and have access to all my other files including a picture that I took just earlier today, so I know it s all up to date, but I cant find the videos I took a week ago. I have files from before and after that I can access but I can t find these specific videos for some reason.

    I can pull them up on my phone and watch them, so they are definitely there. I looked on my phone and even found the "file name" and searched it that way on my computer through my phone files and I still can t find them. I can find everything else, just not these. Why??

  • Are gaming laptops still good for other uses like other computers are?

    As far as I know the only difference between an gaming laptop and a conventional laptop is the presence of a graphics card, so I highly doubt it would lack performance in a different field just because it is set up for gaming, but I just want to be sure that's the case.

  • I want to buy a laptop but don t know which one to get? Does anyone know of one offhand? I have a $1,500 budget.?

    Okay, so I plan on using it for video editing, photishop, schoolwork and general research, watching nrtflix/youtube, and a lot of gaming.

    A CD/DVD Rom, because I have a lot of movies on dvd

    A webcam preferably with good resolution

    Really good WiFi capabilities.

    Preferably a good graphics card, I don t mind all that much about the quality of graphics, but I want just want games to function properly.

    I want it to be able to play games like Fallout 4 smoothly.

    Intel core I7

    Also I would need it to have pretty good hard drive size because of all the videos/games that will be on it.

    I prefer ASUS for a brand but will look into other brands

    If anyone knows offhand where I can buy one like that

    I ve looked around online but a lot of the sites I looked at didn t have them with the CD/DVD rom

  • I have a question on how insurance works.?

    I don't need exact amounts because I know it all depends on ehat kind of insurance and what kind of car and the amount of damage and stuff but I just need to know how things work.

    So let's say I pay an average amount of insurance for an averagely crappy car and I rear end an equally averagly crappy car. I know a deductible is the amount I need to pay and insurance will cover the rest. Is that deductible different depending on the damage I did to their car? Does their insurance matter at all? Or is my insurance the only one that matters in that scenario?

    Will their insurance go up because I hit them?

    Will I have to pay more monthly because I got in an accident? What if I don't have insurance? What if they don't have insurance?

    What is anything else I should know about?
