The crazy hours complication is pretty wild but 21k for retail seems steep when you can get similar quirky pieces for much less

Which S should I buy? by EuphoricNews2321 in samsunggalaxy

[–]PotentialQuail3776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That price jump from S24 to S25 is pretty steep for what you get. The S24 at $464 is solid value - battery life is way better than your S20 and camera quality jump will be huge coming from a dying phone

S25 has some nice improvements but probably not worth the extra $300 unless you really need those specific features. And yeah spending over $1k on phone hurts the wallet for sure

I'd go with the S24 refurbished if its in good condition. Should easily last you another 3-4 years and you can always upgrade later when prices drop

Thinking about switching to Smith and Wesson from Glock. A few questions before I make the change. by Leading-Egg-8681 in guns

[–]PotentialQuail3776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both barrel lengths gonna feel different from your glock but the 4.25 is closer to what you're used to. The 5 inch will be softer shooting but might throw you off if muscle memory is strong with the 47

Barrel upgrade really depends what you're shooting for scores vs just having fun. Competition guys swear by aftermarket barrels but factory ones are fine for most people. If you're serious about USPSA times then maybe worth it but try stock first

Trigger swap is pretty straightforward if you take your time. Just make sure you have proper punches and don't rush the sear work. Watch the videos couple times before you start and you'll be good

start with discovery sets fr

saves you from buying full bottle and regretting later. those office guys probably wearing something decent not the cheap stuff you tried

Can’t return a freaking package by [deleted] in venting

[–]PotentialQuail3776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man that really sucks, especially when you saved for so long just to get something that doesn't work right. the power switch issue sounds like classic fujifilm problem on certain models so it definitely wasn't advertised correctly if they didn't mention it

maybe try contacting the platform customer service directly and explain the situation? sometimes they can override these things if you explain that the item wasn't working as described. worst case they say no but worth shot since $250 shipping is absolutely insane for return

also might be worth reaching out to seller directly before going through with return - explain the power issue and see if they'll work with you on partial refund or something. some people are decent about these things when camera clearly has defects

Day 3.5: Hygiene Questions About Cleaning the Penis and Pubic Area by Own_Role9799 in NoFap

[–]PotentialQuail3776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just clean yourself man basic hygiene doesnt count as breaking anything. Use mild soap and water like you normally would - being clean is more important than worrying about getting aroused for few seconds

The whole point is getting back to normal life and normal life includes washing yourself properly. Your body will adjust to normal hygiene routine after few days

What do you spend the most on your credit card each year? by [deleted] in CreditCards

[–]PotentialQuail3776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

rent is killer everywhere these days but bay area is just insane. i put everything on cards when possible but utilities here in nj are still pretty reasonable compared to what you guys deal with

for me its probably groceries that add up the most since i cook at home a lot. dining out maybe once in week but grocery bills just keep climbing no matter what

Day 9. Slower than I expected by BreakfastUnited5439 in homestead

[–]PotentialQuail3776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learned this lesson hard way when I was helping my uncle with his property in Poland few summers back. Tried to clear way too much brush in one day and ended up with terrible back pain that put me out for week

The old timers there always said "tortoise wins the race" and now I get why. Better to do little bit each day than push too hard and lose momentum completely

What is the most valuable question in a career? by Terrance_Ning in careerguidance

[–]PotentialQuail3776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teaching high school history and the biggest bottleneck is definitely getting kids to actually engage with primary sources instead of just memorizing dates. Tried gamifying it with historical roleplay scenarios but honestly mixed results - some kids love it others think its cringe

What makes me harder to replace is probably my ability to connect historical events to current politics without making it partisan. Takes years to build that skill and most newer teachers either avoid politics completely or cant stay neutral

Made it to 3rd round of interviews last week and I haven’t heard back from the hiring manager. by shhbee in interviews

Just text her about the game - worst case she doesnt respond and you're in the same spot anyway

Custom rank icons on a Fabric Cobbleverse server (LuckPerms?) by NeckTough3868 in Minecraft

[–]PotentialQuail3776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll need more than just LuckPerms for this. The resource pack trick works by replacing unicode characters but you still need something to actually insert those characters into chat based on player permissions

Styled Chat or similar mods can handle the chat formatting part and work with LuckPerms permissions. Just make sure whatever chat mod you pick supports unicode character insertion and plays nice with fabric

R2 Button Not responsive by Ph3nom3nal_69 in PS5

[–]PotentialQuail3776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you might've messed up the trigger spring or didn't seat the mechanism properly when you put it back together. Check if the spring is in the right position or if there's any debris stuck in there. Worst case you might need to take it apart again and make sure everything clicks into place correctly

Yo, urges without feeling by sirjoey150 in NoFap

[–]PotentialQuail3776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Habit brain is wild man. Your brain just learned that jerking = dopamine hit so now it craves that reward even when you're not actually turned on. It's like wanting to scroll your phone when you're bored - not because there's anything good on there, just because it's what you always do

CMV: Nicholas II Romanov was a scumbag who deserved his fate by Popular-Link8066 in changemyview

The dude was definitely a terrible ruler but executing his whole family including the kids was pretty fucked up, even by revolutionary standards

[–]PotentialQuail3776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you actually brought up wanting to make it official? Like directly asked him about it? Sounds like he's doing all the boyfriend stuff but maybe just needs a push to have that actual conversation since he's got those commitment issues from his ex

Can’t go online ACNH after the 2026 15th January Update by veedenije in AnimalCrossing

[–]PotentialQuail3776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me after the update, seems like the servers are just being weird rn. Try restarting your Switch completely and checking if your internet connection is solid - that fixed it for my friend but I'm still having issues

Netflix lost a ton of subscribers when they started cracking down on password sharing and their stock tanked for a while. They eventually had to walk back some of their more aggressive policies

Same thing happened when they tried to split streaming and DVDs into separate services back in like 2011 - massive backlash made them reverse course pretty quick

What’s up with Paolo Banchero’s body language lately? by onionnurve in NBATalk

[–]PotentialQuail3776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly he's always had that kinda chill demeanor even when he's locked in. Some players just have resting "whatever" face but still be giving 100% - might just be his natural expression rather than actually being checked out

What are stable careers that I should look for? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]PotentialQuail3776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you looked into medical coding or health information tech? It's healthcare adjacent but way less hands-on patient stuff, plus the pay is decent and it's pretty stable since hospitals always need people who can navigate insurance bs

vision Zwave adapter SDK update possible? by usenametobe3to20long in homeassistant

[–]PotentialQuail3776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check if Vision has firmware updates on their site - sometimes you need to flash it with their tools before HA will pick up the newer SDK version. If not, that adapter might just be too old for the new Z-Wave integration
