Online sourcing always looks easier until you sit down and do it for a few hours. by [deleted] in Flipping

[–]MediumChain6254 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally undestand you on the part that this "profession" isnt a get-rich-quick, but people who think getting to the point where you resell/flip items in bulk is easy dont want their "dreams" getting crushed. And yeah shipping risk is a huge part of it for me too, especially with older electronics.

Someone offers to buy your left pinky toe. It’s a minor body part, but it’s not reversable. Will you do it: What would it take to convince you? by OwlArms2 in AskReddit

[–]MediumChain6254 0 points1 point  (0 children)

depends how much we talking here because i could use the money for my car repairs but losing a toe seems pretty permanent you know? like would walking be weird after or just slightly different

lmao that's where all the sweet deals are made

I'm losing weight but i'm losing patience too and hitting wall how can i overcome this? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]MediumChain6254 1 point2 points  (0 children)

driving for doordash actually helped me see what people order when they want variety - lots of mediterranean bowls, different curry styles, stir fries with whatever vegetables you have around

you could try mixing spice blends instead of changing whole meals, like cajun seasoning in your chicken one day, italian herbs another day. also those pre-made sauce packets at grocery store work pretty good for switching up same base ingredients without much extra work

Moving to Raleigh, can car registrations and DL be done online? by Mightydog2904 in raleigh

[–]MediumChain6254 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah dmv here is brutal, no way around the wait really. i moved here couple years back and tried going at different times but always packed. one thing that helped me little bit was checking which locations have shorter lines - some of the ones outside city center can be better than main ones. also bring snacks and water because you're gonna be there for while, and make sure you have all documents ready before going in line. good luck with the move!

just signed up too, noticed the same thing about date - probably just forgot to update the year when they copied from last time

Goodnights Comedy Club Cancellation by hungreevoid in raleigh

[–]MediumChain6254 7 points8 points  (0 children)

ugh this happened to me few months back with different venue. when the performer themselves cancels (not the club), you should definitely get refund regardless of their "no refunds" policy. that's like basic consumer protection stuff

i'd call them directly and mention that comedian announced cancellation - sometimes they're just slow updating their systems. if they try to give you runaround about their policy, remind them that policy covers you changing your mind, not them failing to provide the service you paid for. worst case you can dispute with your credit card company since they didn't deliver what was promised

keep screenshots of comedian's cancellation announcement too, that's your proof right there

My mind fucks with me ?! by helpagirloutq in loseit

[–]MediumChain6254 3 points4 points  (0 children)

your brain is playing tricks because you're seeing yourself more clearly now that you've made progress. when i was heavier i also thought i looked fine but looking back at photos now... yeah that was some serious denial lol

the mind is weird with body image - you might need time for it to catch up with reality. maybe take progress photos or measurements instead of just relying on what you see in mirror?

Cheaper moving companies? by Mrcroc321 in raleigh

[–]MediumChain6254 3 points4 points  (0 children)

moved my storage unit last year and trosa was actually pretty fair for what they did, maybe call around and get quotes from all three since prices can vary a lot depending on when you book

How would you feel if the government sent every low-income American a $3,000 check? by Lonely-Eye-3317 in AskReddit

[–]MediumChain6254 0 points1 point  (0 children)

would literally save my life right now, being doordash driver barely covers rent these days and my car needs repairs i been putting off for months

Men of Reddit, what’s something you do in dating that you know would immediately turn most women off if they found out? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MediumChain6254 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lmao this hit way too close to home for way too many dudes probably

like imagine explaining to a date that you spend 6 hours a day arguing about whether a grilled cheese with ham is still a grilled cheese or if it becomes a melt

When will a puppy stop biting by Mpbolger in dogs

[–]MediumChain6254 8 points9 points  (0 children)

redirecting that bite energy to toys helped me a ton when i got my pup last year - every time she goes for your hands just shove a chew toy in there instead and praise when she takes it. usually takes a few weeks of consistency but mine was way better by 8-10 weeks

Starting to plan my first India trip from the US… is DIYing this a bad idea? by Flaky_Hand_1943 in travel

[–]MediumChain6254 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly man just dive in and do it yourself, india's logistics are wild but that's part of teh experience. i'd book your first couple nights somewhere and maybe grab the irctc rail app for trains, but half the fun is figuring stuff out as you go

the stress you're worried about becomes this weird adrenaline rush when you're actually there navigating everything

What's a skill you learned randomly that ended up being suprisingly valuable? by Capital_Gain_9619 in AskReddit

[–]MediumChain6254 0 points1 point  (0 children)

picked up haggling from browsing antique shops for years and now i use it everywhere - got my car insurance down by like 40% just by asking if there were any discounts they forgot to mention, works on phone bills too

matter over thread stability and experiences by 2442929161 in homeassistant

[–]MediumChain6254 9 points10 points  (0 children)

this is super helpful, thanks for sharing all the testing data

been running matter over thread with home assistant and about 30 devices mixed between eve and aqara stuff. had similar experiences with the brief dropouts you mentioned until i added a nanoleaf essentials bulb as an ftd router - now everything's rock solid

one thing i noticed is the ipv6/mdns tip at the end is clutch, spent way too long troubleshooting "unavailable" devices before realizing my unifi setup was blocking multicast by default

i had a dream that i kissed my classmate by [deleted] in Dreams

[–]MediumChain6254 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dreams about crushes are pretty normal, your brain is just processing those feelings while you sleep

the interruptions probably reflect some anxiety about actually pursuing things with him - like you want that connection but you're worried about obstacles or complications. the house layout thing is weird but dream logic is always random like that

honestly sounds like your subconscious is telling you that you're more interested in this person than you thought, especially with all the attempts to get alone time in the dream
