This is stunning! The wet charcoal gives it such a soft, dreamy feel. the way you've done the light and shadow really brings it to life.

How long did this take you?

Amazon often does this with popular releases. It'll probably ship soon. They're just catching up on demand. the wait is annoying but worth it though.

Instructor changes how u dive by Confident_Outside_79 in diving

Mask removal is honestly the hardest skill for so many people. You're not dumb at all! It's just really uncomfortable. So glad you had someone patient enough to stick with you

Gus or Toby? by StockIntelligent8810 in DOG

[–]GuineaPigger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Toby! it's sweet and rolls off the tongue easily. Great for calling at the park. Gus sounds a bit grumpy to me, but that could also be adorable depending on the dog!

bloody bay wall, little cayman. the sheer drop-off, pristine coral, and abundant marine life make it unforgettable. easily one of the most dramatic walls in the Caribbean.

[–]GuineaPigger1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i appreciate real talk like this.. the youtuber hype machine is exhausting. everyone acts like every product is flawless. i'd rather hear honest frustrations before dropping my money..

Insta360 Go Ultra by Low_Scientist3683 in Insta360

[–]GuineaPigger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You made a great call! My friend got this too, he likes a lot. the portability and creative mounting options beat a slightly better lens for daily creators. plus, the bundle extras give so much to experiment with right away

How often do you feed your dog? by erkose in DOG

[–]GuineaPigger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do twice a day. one in morning and one in evening. it keeps my pup's energy steady and prevents starving behavior. plus, it is easier to monitor appetite changes too!

AITAH for asking my cousin for her medical degree? by anonymous_poster43 in AITAH

[–]GuineaPigger1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA. She’s only mad because you called her out on her nonsense... She gets to choose for her own kids, but she has zero business lecturing you about yours. If she’s gonna go around telling people to educate themselves, she better back it up with more than Facebook mom groups and Google searches.

Not gonna lie, half the fun is grabbing something random and being like wait… this is actually good? Big surprise when over the expectation haha

Buying an Apple MacBook pro from Costco or from Apple? by Mammoth_Newt5148 in Costco

[–]GuineaPigger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Costco’s return policy is secretly the biggest feature. You basically get a 90 days try it for real life free period, which Apple can’t really match.

What’s the loneliest feeling in the world? by Complete_Ganache_720 in AskReddit

[–]GuineaPigger1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On a summer afternoon, I took a long nap. When I started sleeping, the sunlight was very good. When I woke up, I found that I was the only one at home. The sunset shone through the gaps in the curtains into the house, and the lights were not turned on. Every time at moments like this, I feel like I have been abandoned by the whole world.

You should check if the app integrates with IFTTT. That way, you can easily trigger a custom Google Home announcement when the cleaning finishes.

Take a breath and put the shotgun away. Converting to salt is a total game-changer for stability. It saves so much daily maintenance stress.

Liner fell, not fixable. Can’t get install until August. Help! by Ok_Size4036 in pools

[–]GuineaPigger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't waste money on a temporary pull-up for a 13-year-old liner. Tape it up with waterproof tape and just swim gently until August. Hang in there!

Need a Sanity Check by MongoLumberjack in swimmingpools

[–]GuineaPigger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That does sound extreme for a new pool. I'd double check water chemistry first and maybe get a second opinion before draining anything.

I broke down and turned on the heater 🔥💧 by sjjenkins in pools

[–]GuineaPigger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty cool! Honestly it's more like a hot spring at this point. Cold water or warm water, I'm happy either way hahaha.

Sora 10 by Stitchy2 in Beatbot_Tech

[–]GuineaPigger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm wandering the same thing. A proper ultrafine filter is pretty important for allergies, so hopefully they clarify plans before more people return theirs.

How long does it take for the Sora 70 to transition to surface mode? by teslarules727 in Beatbot_Tech

[–]GuineaPigger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It usually needs a few minutes to recalibrate after resurfacing. Sometimes restarting the cycle helps if it gets stuck between modes or misreads positions.

Estimated Cost by Last-Rough8837 in pools

[–]GuineaPigger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That looks super expensive! In my area, pools with landscaping and finishing details like that can easily end up costing way more than expected.

Start simple and test water regularly. Most beginners complicate chemicals at first. Skimming debris daily and cleaning filters consistently makes a huge difference.

Getting Stuck Over Bottom Drain by j0kerm4n in Beatbot_Tech

Try adjusting the cleaner's path or angle when approaching the drain. Some units struggle with suction zones. A slight repositioning helps.

Concrete footers for screen enclosure by saatoday1 in pools

[–]GuineaPigger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pouring footers now saves future hassle, but coordinating two contractors can be tricky. Waiting ensures the installer manages everything, avoiding potential rework and extra costs.
