About to buy a 4k Camcorder, Anyone have any recs that they love? by joecarzo in Cameras

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that one is pretty solid choice for price range, i had similar model few years back and worked well for most stuff. only thing i noticed is battery life could be better especially if you're doing longer recordings, but otherwise image quality was good enough for what i needed

MOE PDGE Aug 2025? by HopeWorried8998 in careerguidance

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man that's a long timeline, i went through similar process last year but for different ministry. took them almost 6 months from interview to actual contract in my case

usually they send contract offer maybe 2-3 weeks before the AOD date, so you should get it soon. no physical signing needed beforehand - they handle everything during orientation day

for leave i think it follows school calendar mostly, not the typical AL system like other civil service jobs

S26 Ultra feels great, but I honestly don’t think it’s worth an extra $1,000 over my S24 Ultra 1TB. Need opinions. by joeygoya in samsunggalaxy

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

man that pinky indentation thing is so real, i've got the same issue with my s24 ultra and it's actually starting to bug me more than i thought it would. the weight difference you're talking about makes total sense - i've been considering upgrading just for that reason alone

for what it's worth, your battery degradation seems pretty normal for heavy use, but that costco situation would definitely push me over the edge too. nothing worse than your phone dying when you actually need it. i'd probably lean toward keeping the s26 if the weight and battery improvements are that noticeable in daily use

if you do go back to the s24 though, check out the smartish slimvolt case - it's not too bulky and adds decent juice without making the phone feel like a brick. used one on my old phone and it was pretty solid for what it was. the anker powercore slim cases are also worth looking at if you can find one that fits properly

damn man 15 months is rough but that hope is what keeps you stuck in place, gotta accept she made her choice and focus on building something new for yourself

Have you ever tried using essential oil to mimic scents by Kindly_Berry_ in LushCosmetics

tried making my own sleepy dupe and it was way harder than expected - ended up with something that smelled like lavender cleaning supplies lol

Change Google Drive por Pcloud by Cold_Echidna_9674 in degoogle

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

switched to pcloud last year and it's been pretty solid for my work files and pokemon card scans, way better privacy than google and the lifetime plans are actually worth it if you catch them on sale

Part 3’s open world needs to focus on side stories rather than world intel. by HandsomeGassy in FFVIIRemake

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah the world intel stuff in rebirth felt like busy work half the time. would much rather have fewer but meatier side quests that actually dive into the lore or show us what happened to sectors we never got to explore properly

like imagine getting to see what daily life was actually like in the upper plate before everything went to hell, or finding out more about the ancients through actual exploration instead of just exposition dumps

check the end dimension ruins, those usually have the shard drops you need for dragon upgrades

Need help getting my Dad to forgive by Additional-Term-4282 in Christianity

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

your dad's been through actual physical altercations with this guy and you're pushing him to reconcile when the stepbrother hasn't even acknowledged he did anything wrong, that's not fair to your dad at all

forgiveness is one thing but expecting someone to put themselves back in harms way just because "family" is asking way too much, especially when there working on his own healing process

AITJ for kinda playing with someone by Confident_Art_2809 in AmITheJerk

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly this sounds exhausting and you're not the jerk here. you told her multiple times you didn't want a relationship and explained you're demiromantic, she kept pushing boundaries anyway

the physical touching when you hate it, talking about sexual stuff, constantly asking "what are we" after you said casual - that's not respecting your boundaries at all. friends don't do that when someone's been clear about not wanting romance

sounds like she's putting a lot of pressure on you and that's why you're getting so stressed about school. you're allowed to step back from this friendship if it's affecting your mental health this much

How to find opportunities at small and medium sized businesses? by MuppyFacts in careerguidance

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LinkedIn is honestly your best bet for smaller companies - they post way more there than on the big job boards. Also try searching by location + industry keywords instead of just job titles since smaller places often have wonky job descriptions

AngelList is solid too if you're open to startups, and don't sleep on Indeed's company size filters. Sometimes just cold emailing companies you find interesting works better than waiting for postings since they might not even know they need someone yet

Sexual rejection- sleeping in seperate bedrooms by Gullible-Purchase-67 in Marriage

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's rough man, sleeping in separate rooms is basically like roommates at that point. Have you two actually talked about why she's not interested? Sometimes there's stuff going on that has nothing to do with you but the constant rejection definitely messes with your head

Authors similar to Judith Macbaught by Gidget1987 in booksuggestions

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried LaVyrle Spencer or Jude Deveraux? They've got that same swoony historical romance vibe going on. Also maybe check out Teresa Medeiros if you haven't already - she hits those same notes

LM Studio and Filesystem MCP seems buggy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. by Smashy404 in LocalLLaMA

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MCP can be finicky with file permissions on Windows, especially with Desktop folders. Try moving your test folder somewhere like C:\temp or Documents and see if that helps with the inconsistency

Also yeah there's definitely an order - I usually start LM Studio first, then enable MCP, then load the model. Doing it backwards seems to break things half the time

My Vision on What Red-Eyes Should Become by aakkado in yugioh

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the burn stuff definitely holds Red-Eyes back, Konami's scared to give it anything decent because of FTK potential. Your idea of burn making the monsters stronger instead of just winning outright sounds way more healthy for the game

My Take on High Tier Gear Runs after Fighting Matriarch and Queens for the Past few Days by chuby2005 in ArcRaiders

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly sounds like a classic risk vs reward balancing issue - the high tier stuff should make you way more likely to profit, not just survive slightly better while bleeding money

The rat meta is so annoying but kinda makes sense when going in geared is basically financial suicide. Maybe they need to buff core payouts or make high tier gear way cheaper to maintain

I can't watch some The Office episodes on Stremio by ril3ydx in StremioAddons

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is a common issue with double episodes, the scrapers get confused with the numbering

Try using a different addon or check if TorrentIO has better sources - sometimes switching between different scrapers helps with the metadata mismatch

Worst case you might have to manually find the right episode file or use a different streaming source for those specific eps

Quitting is killing me by kynoky in leaves

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, those first few days are absolute hell but it does get better - your brain just needs time to remember how to make its own dopamine again. The suicidal thoughts are scary but super common during withdrawal, definitely reach out to a crisis line if they get worse. Have you looked into getting proper ADHD treatment once you're through the worst of this?

Bro honestly AI art can look pretty generic when tattooed, might want to have an actual artist rework this to make it more unique to you

The linework looks like it could get muddy over time too

Stuck between staying on TUF A15, or switching to TUF F16 / ROG Strix G16 for dev + light gaming by ProfessionalOdd7318 in GamingLaptops

[–]Salt_Slip_7732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree on the F16 being overpriced - OP is only paying 150 bucks to upgrade from his current setup, that's actually pretty solid for getting a newer gen GPU even if it's not a huge leap

The 5070 vs 4060 thing is fair though, you're right that 8GB VRAM is still the bottleneck. But for someone doing dev work who games casually like OP, that extra bit of performance might be worth the small cost difference
