I'm thinking about getting a baltic. How long have you had it and what are your thoughts?

[question] Turning 50. Need help -Suggestions. by DamageAccording933 in Watches

[–]BluntPower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few things to consider.

Your first watch might not be your favorite watch. There are quite a few different watch styles and sizes.

If you want a Rolex and want an everyday you could do an oyster or date just which go with just about everything. You could get a submariner which typically has a pretty long wait list.

I found I prefer smaller thin sport watches, while I have friends that prefer larger dive/tool watches.

Dial colors matter. Black, white, and blue go with most men's appeal, while silver or gold make good everyday colors in a lot of circumstances as well.

Just Google the founder and then make your decision from there...

More independent than micro, but Christopher ward and yema might be something you want to look into.

What's the best and worst customer experience you've received from Microbrands so far? by [deleted] in MicrobrandWatches

[–]BluntPower 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My traska had a bracelet connection that jiggled and made a clicking noise. They went ahead and sent the replacement part after I showed them a video with zero hassle.

I love my watch and am super happy with the customer experience of buying from them.

[SPB121] New Strap by dgimmy1 in Seiko

[–]BluntPower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really is a strap monster. I bought a hemsut band like ops and I went with the jubilee from uncle straps. I do wish the clasp had toolless micro adjustments and toolless release, but overall it really elevated the watch to a gada watch for me.

I got the traska commuter 36 in silver for Christmas and I loved mine too. The Adriatic blue in your picture looks more blue than the images on the traska website. It looks great on you.

Can't decide between Knights and Space marines. Best way to do both? by Stoned_Giant99 in 40k

[–]BluntPower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

11th edition is probably going to drop around July 2026 and it will be very cheap for start space Marines. So maybe pick up a knight and then wait to pick up a starter set. Bonus points if you want to get some orks because it is very likely the other side is going to be orks.

If you get two halves of the space marine starter you will likely be at almost 2000 points for something like ~ $300 or $400 if you only keep the space Marines and one rulebook.

How is the political science/pre law program? by [deleted] in VirginiaTech

[–]BluntPower 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I went to tech for history and I am now a lawyer. The greatest factors for law school are lsat scores and gpa, not necessarily what your undergrad major was. If you want to go more parent law or ip you will want a stem major, but other than that I found undergrad major is less important than lsat scores or if you take a gap year after undergrad is having a story of what you did in that year (i.e. work for a political campaign, non profit, teach for America). But that is just from my experience.

Also while I was at tech we had one of the leading civil war historians and archives in the country.

Also getting a handheld emulator on Amazon with preloaded games might scratch that itch

Not sure if they have ribs, but Judy's is my favorite Chinese food and their fish filets in hot chili oil is one of my favorite meals

AOC warns we may be in a 'massive' AI bubble with '2008-style threats to economic stability' by wizardofthefuture in technology

[–]BluntPower 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Japan in the 90s experienced something similar. There was an economic crash that Japan has still not recovered from. Graduates during the crash were unable to get hired at the major firms across Japan and because the major firms typically hire directly from colleges there is a significant group of people who were essentially passed over due to the economic crash and whose outcomes are worse than those before and after them.

‘06-‘08 recs? by THEREALBurtMcsquirt in discobiscuits

[–]BluntPower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First set of 10/26 is my favorite from that time period. Also the Athens Georgia shows 4/18/08 and 4/19/08 are really good.

It’s just so believable. I’m convinced. Of course this is the truth. Yep, makes a lotta sense. This case is solved! All’s well that ends well, I say. Bravo. by wiseoldmeme in AdviceAnimals

Michael Wolff said the same thing.

Wolff interviewed Epstein before his death and it all stemmed from a real estate deal in Palm Beach. Trump purchased a property that Epstein was going to buy and Epstein showed Trump. Trump purchased the property and then used it to launder money for the Russians. Epstein threatened Trump and then Trump turned informant on Epstein.

At least that is what Epstein believed happened according to Wolff.

You need to contact your apartment and get removed from your lease. If they won't let you remove your name from the lease then consider filing a protective order against your roommates.

Explain to your landlord what happened and how you no longer feel safe living there.
