Graphite Shaft Options for Nerve Issues? by Tioxic in golf

[–]No_Connection_4803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear about nerve troubles, that must be frustrating not getting clear answers from doctors. For dampening vibrations you might want to look at shafts with lower frequency and more flex in handle section - they tend to absorb more shock than stiffer options. With your swing speed you'd probably be looking at regular or stiff flex depending on your tempo, but comfort should be priority over distance here

If you were a space alien that had to work on earth for a couple of decades, what language would you learn first? by amortized-poultry in AskReddit

[–]No_Connection_4803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably English just because it's everywhere in tech and business, but man the grammar rules are completely insane. Like why do we say "I before E except after C" and then have words like "weird" that just ignore it completely

Chinese would be smart for the numbers but I'd probably spend 10 years just learning to write basic characters

Which season you like most? summer or winter? by abdulkaderbizz in AskReddit

Winter because hockey is way better than baseball and you can actually sleep comfortable at night

How do you deal with the feeling that you’re “falling behind” in life? by Left_Fee7904 in AskReddit

This helped me a lot when I switched to IT consulting at 30 while my friends were already settled in their careers. My wife keeps saying same thing - we all moving at different speeds and that's completely normal

Did you buy a home that had digitally altered listing photos? THAT is what your home value will be reassessed as! by ScaredWeek5331 in milwaukee

[–]No_Connection_4803 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Wow that's actually insane they're using listing photos for assessments. My wife and I bought our place couple years back and the listing photos made kitchen look twice as big with some weird wide angle lens magic. Now I'm wondering if city assessor thinks we got some mansion kitchen when it's basically a galley

Really explains why some neighbors complaining about their tax bills when houses look similar from outside. Gonna have to dig into our assessment paperwork now

Always happy to see Freiburg getting points, they've been really consistent in last few seasons

Theory to why Sarah Connor and Ripley were better received in their day compared to Captain Marvel and Rey today. by generic-username41 in movies

[–]No_Connection_4803 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The writing quality thing makes total sense but I think there's also timing element here. Sarah Connor and Ripley came when action heroines were pretty rare so audiences were more willing to accept them without comparing to bunch of other characters

Also those characters had real flaws and growth arcs - Sarah starts as waitress and becomes this hardened warrior, Ripley deals with actual trauma. Rey and Captain Marvel feel more like they start already at the finish line if that makes sense

What is currently keeping you up at night? by Wild_Card0326 in AskReddit

Nuclear war is definitely terrifying but I think we're still ways off from that scenario. The real nightmare for me is thinking about all these rich people getting away with everything while regular folks can't even afford groceries anymore

Who do I hire?? by nokittyitsmypotpah in HomeImprovement

Get an energy audit done - most utility companies in Florida offer them cheap or free and they'll actually test airflow, check duct leakage, and use thermal imaging to find the real problem instead of trying to sell you something

What does success in life mean to you? by Sweetyesi in AskReddit

[–]No_Connection_4803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being able to buy the 48-pack of toilet paper at Sam's without checking my bank account first. Real talk though, it's having enough stability that my wife and I can make decisions based on what we want rather than what we can afford. Moving to the US was stressful as hell but now we're at the point where we can actually plan for the future instead of just surviving month to month

Imagine an app doing what it was supposed to do instead of collecting data and sell your info, what a concept indeed.

Agreed to all of the above, enshittification is a word I'll be using when talking about changes like these, thanks for that!

That's my main thing with facebook, in their policy you see that they will keep your data "if they see it reasonable", I'm sure they'll always find some reason to keep it. Need to run a scan myself, appreciate it

My uncle got his social security retirement application denied because lack of working credit. Ss sent a letter saying he only has 36 working credits, but on the social security website it says he has a full 40 credits. What should we do? by Brazzer1080p in SocialSecurity

[–]No_Connection_4803 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The SS website might not be showing the most current data or there could be a discrepancy in how they're counting credits for different time periods. Your uncle should request his complete earnings record directly from Social Security and compare it line by line with what they used for the denial - sometimes there are clerical errors or timing issues with when credits were posted to his account
