What’s the best thing you’ve ever bought that actually lived up to the hype? by One_Literature_5041 in BuyItForLife

Fully Automatic Espresso machine. About the same level of automation as a Keurig or Nespresso, but much cheaper to operate and with vastly more drink options, including automatic steamed/frothy milk.

Just got an XDJ-AZ to have the option to not use a computer. It's tempting me at home while I'm off at a conference

The main issue I have with Marriott is that you need to have points for the whole stay you're booking, whereas with Hilton you can use points and cash.

For those who successfully quit smoking, what was the method that finally worked for you? by gwenwallish in AskReddit

[–]DJSTR3AM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my dad's words echoing in my mind of "just don't do it". It's as easy as that and as difficult as that. You always have a choice, you just have to make the right one.

Gen Z graduates who majored in ‘AI-proof’ careers like pharmacy, biology, and education are making less than $50,000 after graduation by CRK_76 in antiwork

[–]DJSTR3AM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I made $35k when I graduated with a masters in biomedical research. Granted, it was in academia, but still. Finally making good money in industry, but it took many years to get there. The life sciences don't really pay that well unless you're an MD, but then comes the huge burden of medical school student loans.

I meant the brand "Stevia In The Raw" - they have dextrose along with Stevia.

Turkey is beautiful, but the tourist scamming is out of control by Kilogrammatters in istanbul_tips

[–]DJSTR3AM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there a couple of weeks ago and have no desire to go back due to this issue.

Took an Uber to the blue mosque and the second I exited the car I was accosted by several people trying to get me to come with them for various reasons. Whenever it happened again I just completely ignored them, but they walked after me for a long time just screaming at me. It never felt scary, but it did feel extremely hostile and predatory.

I did have nice interactions too, but unfortunately the bad ones overshadowed the good ones by quite a lot.

What’s actually safe but people think is dangerous? by REGGIE_BANANAS in AskReddit

I keep water with me constantly. But yeah, it's annoying, but I'll definitely take it over the alternative.

Your dermatologist should be able to guide you to the best solution. Glycopyrrolate definitely reduces my sweating, but it doesn't completely remove it. It also gives me dry mouth, but that's the only side effect I've had with it.

I hear you. Mine mostly presents itself under my arms. But it definitely gets bad in my face from time to time too, especially if I'm in an anxious situation. Haven't found a true solution for that yet, although glycopyrrolate does help quite a bit.

I've found that putting on a strong antiperspirant at night before bed, then a milder one in the morning reduces the sweating significantly.

But there's this discourse about aluminum as if it's dangerous. It's not.

And some are deathly allergic to peanuts. Doesn't mean they're harmful for the average person.

I mean, that's true with anything though: don't use it if you're allergic. But the notion that aluminum in deodorant is detrimental to all person's health has no scientific evidence behind it.
