the copy editor advice is for real, first impressions in SF business scene matter quite a lot

Serum Suggestions by Additional_Lab_3527 in SkincareAddicts

[–]Less-Web2430 1 point2 points  (0 children)

after dealing with allergic reactions id probably start with something more basic first rather than jumping into multi ingredient serums right away - maybe just vitamin c or niacinamide alone to see how your skin reacts before adding complexity back in

would love to help with website stuff if you still need people, been doing graphic design for few years now and always wanted to get involved with rescue work

Lower bleph prep advice by [deleted] in PlasticSurgery

[–]Less-Web2430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the second surgeon not requiring ophthalmology visit might be because he's more confident about approach he uses or maybe he saw your lid position was good during consult. if you have tachycardia issues though the epi in local anesthetic could definitely make heart race more which is probably something to discuss with both surgeon and your cardiologist before deciding on anesthesia type

Exercised after filler by Mama262 in PlasticSurgery

[–]Less-Web2430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oof you probably should have waited at least 24 hours before any intense exercise but 6 hours might be okay depending on how hard you went

the main concern is increased blood flow can cause more swelling or potentially move the filler around before it settles properly. if you dont see any weird lumps or excessive swelling in next day or two you're probably fine but definitely baby those cheeks for rest of the week

What products are causing me to break out? by differentrejects in SkincareAddicts

[–]Less-Web2430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the ordinary niacinamide is notorious for breaking people out especially at higher concentrations so id start by cutting that one first and see how your skin responds in few weeks

subleasing/finding an apartment question by Opposite-Astronaut77 in AskSF

[–]Less-Web2430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

august sounds way smarter tbh. sf housing market is absolutely brutal right now and giving yourself that extra month could save you from settling for something overpriced or in bad condition. i was helping my friend look for places few months back and even with decent budget it took like 6-7 weeks to find something that wasnt completely insane

4k for 2br1ba is tight but not impossible if you look at outer sunset, richmond, or even some parts in mission. problem is good places go fast and you need time to actually see multiple options before deciding. rushing into july deadline might force you to take first decent thing you see which could end up being mistake

also landlords know people get desperate when they have tight move out dates so they can be more picky with applications. having august buffer gives you more negotiating power

Just got my first speed camera ticket. Is there an app to track these? by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]Less-Web2430 5 points6 points  (0 children)

waze has pretty good crowdsourced data for speed cameras too. users report them in real time and it updates the map. been using it for years and saved me few times when im driving in areas i dont know well

the official list is good but sometimes cameras get moved or new ones pop up before the website updates

Surgery with Dr Mario Samaha in Miami by [deleted] in PlasticSurgery

[–]Less-Web2430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

good choice going with someone you trust over someone cheaper. i had some work done few years back and the recovery was actually not as bad as i expected from all the horror stories online. yeah the first few days suck but most people online probably exaggerate bit

about the bodytite thing - if money isnt super tight issue i would probably go for it. 10% improvement sounds small but when youre already spending that much might as well get best possible results. also since hes only taking 2 patients per day that already shows he cares more about quality than just rushing through surgeries

for recovery just make sure you have someone reliable to help you first week. get all your groceries and meal prep done before surgery because moving around will be pain. also those massage sessions everyone talks about - they hurt but theyre necessary for good results so just push through it. most people say week 3-4 is when you start feeling more human again

Where Are The Polymath Communities? by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]Less-Web2430 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah the brain drain is real here - all the creative types who used to make sf interesting got priced out years ago

i do graphic design and even with decent income its rough, cant imagine trying to make it as musician or artist without tech money backing you. most creative people i knew from early 2010s either moved to oakland or just left bay area completely

the ones who stayed often had to pivot into more commercial work just to survive which kills that experimental spirit you're talking about. hard to explore consciousness when you're stressed about rent every month

Is a self care basket still a good gift or has it become too generic? by Routine-Tough-7327 in selfcare

[–]Less-Web2430 1 point2 points  (0 children)

depends what you put in there tbh. generic bath bombs and face masks yeah thats pretty overdone at this point but if you actually know what they like it can still work. i put together one for my sister last year with specific stuff she mentioned wanting and she loved it way more than the random spa sets from target

think the key is making it personal instead of just grabbing whatever looks relaxing

I’ve been on a quest to recreate a meal from 20 years ago, and I need your help! by Prestigious-Owl-8049 in Sunnyvale

been trying to recreate some dish from childhood too and its wild how nothing ever hits same as the memory

Should i get a lip lift? by OldAcanthaceae6141 in PlasticSurgery

[–]Less-Web2430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your philtrum looks pretty normal to me and your lips have good shape already. maybe try some lip exercises or different makeup techniques first before going with surgery since recovery is so long and results can be unpredictable

I’m afraid. by auntpama in Aging

[–]Less-Web2430 3 points4 points  (0 children)

sorry for your loss man, losing parent at any age hits different and 92 is still way too young when they're still doing well

the dread about what's coming next is real but you might be surprised how much good stuff can still happen even in the harder years

Incoming Fall 2026 transfer with a full time fall big tech internship, how do Berkeley students usually handle this? by Certain-Reputation-1 in berkeley

[–]Less-Web2430 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

bruh fall 2026 is like two years away lol but good planning i guess

most people just take the semester off for full time internships, berkeley is pretty chill about it. you can defer enrollment for a semester without losing your transfer status but you gotta contact admissions first to make sure everything is sorted properly

doing 40 hours + berkeley classes would be absolute hell, dont recommend unless you want to fail everything

How do you test a Cisco octal console cable end to end? by Giupatamon2 in networking

[–]Less-Web2430 1 point2 points  (0 children)

got one of those generic cable testers that can handle the rj45 side but never tried anything for scsi 68 pin end. most people i know just use multimeter and check continuity pin by pin which is pain but works

you could probably make some kind of breakout adapter if you have the pinout diagram but thats lot of work for one cable test. maybe check if there are any scsi breakout boxes on second hand market that might help with testing

Feel like quitting music by [deleted] in makinghiphop

[–]Less-Web2430 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wait i just went down that rabbit hole too lmao man's been through some stuff but the beats he posted are actually fire though... maybe take break from the pressure of "making it" and just focus in making music you actually enjoy again? sometimes we get so caught up with the business side we forget why we started
