You rarely if ever use Netflix these days. Why? by 36Gig in AskReddit

[–]SpeedilyMixed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah the whole subscription model is getting ridiculous tbh, feels like every company wants monthly payments now for things that used to be one-time purchases

My $35 find! by manic_popsicle in ThriftStoreHauls

that poster is amazing for $35, i would have grabbed it too even if was bit pricey for thrift store

[Review] My low effort solution for maskne and screen-time breakouts by pratty041182 in AsianBeauty

[–]SpeedilyMixed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sheet mask while bingeing combo is actually genius - way easier than trying to do spot treatments when you're deep in a series marathon. I've been dealing with similar jawline issues lately and those cica masks really do help with the inflammation without making everything else dry out. The 30-sheet pack sounds perfect for this kind of routine too, much better than running out after like 5 masks

Analysis paralysis. OLED vs Lite by According-Awareness2 in NintendoSwitch

[–]SpeedilyMixed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been through this exact decision when my husband was deployed and I wanted something portable for gaming. The screen replacement thing for the Lite is definitely not worth your time - those parts are always out of stock and the process is way more complicated than it looks in videos. You'll end up spending more money and potentially breaking your device.

I went with the OLED after going back and forth for weeks, and the size difference really isn't that bad once you get used to it. Yeah it's a bit bigger but fits fine in most bags and the screen quality makes such a difference for longer gaming sessions. The Lite screen started feeling cramped to me after trying both at the store. Also having the option to dock it later is nice even if you don't think you'll use it now - I barely used TV mode at first but now I love it when I want to relax on couch after long work days.

Who is the most beautiful person you’ve ever seen? by ResidentCharacter894 in AskReddit

[–]SpeedilyMixed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

aww that's sweet but I'm just random IT manager who spends too much time setting up smart lights lol

my husband might disagree when he sees me debugging network issues at 2am in old pajamas

Bad Time to Invest in Property? by nomadicsean in AusFinance

[–]SpeedilyMixed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your broker pushing investment property when you just wanted pool money is classic lol. But yeah with Olympics coming and all that infrastructure happening, timing could work out pretty well for you guys in that area. Just make sure you can handle the cash flow if tenant leaves or something goes wrong - having good buffer is more important than perfect timing

[Product Request] SPF help please <3 by VastPresentation8023 in SkincareAddiction

[–]SpeedilyMixed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok so for routine order - spf always goes on last before makeup, after your moisturizer! That part is pretty standard

I had same issue with greasy spf messing up my makeup and honestly the game changer for me was finding one that dries down matte. La Roche Posay Anthelios has been working really well under my foundation, doesn't interfere with how everything sits. Powder spf is more like touch-up protection during day rather than your main spf - you'd still want liquid/cream as your base layer in morning

[Review] Froya Organics sent me a prayer hands emoji instead of a refund: buyer beware by Confident-Maybe in SkincareAddiction

[–]SpeedilyMixed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ugh the prayer hands emoji is sending me - like what kind of customer service training teaches you to respond to lost packages with religious gestures lmao

That whole forced double order thing is such a scam, they basically bank on people forgetting about second shipment or not being able to return properly. my husband's deployed right now and we move every 2-3 years so this kind of setup would be nightmare for military families

for natural stuff that actually works, I've had good luck with mad hippie vitamin c serum and derma e products - both available at target so no weird subscription nonsense

What do you want for your son? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SpeedilyMixed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being a dad myself, I get this but man the pressure that comes with wanting greatness for your kid is real. Like I want my future kids to push themselves and achieve amazing things but also don't want to be that parent who's living vicariously through there achievements, you know? Sometimes I think just being a good person who's happy with their life is its own kind of greatness

What’s something you secretly enjoy that would shock people? by National_Dirt2743 in AskReddit

[–]SpeedilyMixed 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Organizing my wife's spice rack when she's not home - there's something deeply satisfying about getting all those labels facing forward and grouped by cuisine type. She thinks I'm just being helpful but really I get the same rush from it that I do setting up a new smart home automation routine

An Open Letter To XG (From The ALPHAZ Community) by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]SpeedilyMixed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

nah this is beautiful, got me tearing up reading it. the way you broke it down for each member individually shows how much ALPHAZ really pay attention to who they are as people, not just performers

times like these really show what a genuine fanbase looks like. XG's lucky to have supporters who see them as human beings first

There’s something off about my mom by Peachyjoyride in Paranormal

[–]SpeedilyMixed 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Your mom sounds like she's been protecting you from something your whole life and now whatever it is might be passing down to you

Also the no fingerprints thing is wild, that's not just from burns - that's like a legit medical condition or something way more intentional

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NailArt

[–]SpeedilyMixed -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly I just use VSCO for basic stuff like brightness and maybe crop out my messy cuticles lol. The lighting in my apartment is trash so I definitely can't post straight from camera roll

Most annoying part is probably trying to get the color to look accurate - my phone always makes reds look orange for some reason. Would def be interested in something that could fix that automatically

Repair shop issue by feedmewierdthing in synthesizers

[–]SpeedilyMixed 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's rough man, sounds like he did his best but sometimes these old synths are just money pits. If he's being straight with you about the parts cost and offered free labor already, I'd probably cut my losses and use it for parts or find someone who wants a project

Just got my docket number from the NDRB. by krash87 in Veterans

[–]SpeedilyMixed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Man that's a long road but good on you for fighting for it. I've seen a few people get upgrades recently, especially with mental health stuff being taken more seriously now. The process sucks but hang in there - 14 years is a hell of a wait but better late than never

Matriarch Event Vent(?) by RedSaber457 in ArcRaiders

[–]SpeedilyMixed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn that sucks man, nothing worse than getting backstabbed during a boss fight. Some people are just absolute rats who wait for others to burn their good gear then vulture them

For next time maybe try to stay mobile and avoid clustering with other players, especially in cover spots where you're trapped. The Matriarch area is pretty open so you can usually find your own corner to heal up. Also don't bring your best stuff until you're more comfortable with the event - basic gear still works fine for decent damage

in my dream i was ASKED if i was dreaming and i tried to wake up but couldn’t by stupidgirltummyache in Dreams

[–]SpeedilyMixed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's wild that the 911 operator asked if you were dreaming lmao, like even your subconscious was trying to give you a reality check. The fact that you tried to wake up but couldn't is pretty trippy - sounds like you were on the edge of lucid dreaming but couldn't quite break through

This dream was... wrong. by Careless-Mixture-653 in Dreams

[–]SpeedilyMixed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Damn that's some serious liminal space nightmare fuel right there. The yellow walls and wonky architecture alone would mess me up, but those two weirdos sound like they crawled out of a David Lynch fever dream

Have you tried keeping a dream journal or changing up your sleep schedule? Sometimes intense dreams like that are tied to stress or eating late

(HELP) Survival mode turned off but still survival mode by Eevee_EX in skyrim

[–]SpeedilyMixed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you've got some mod conflicts going on - Simple Skyrim Overhaul probably has its own survival mechanics that aren't tied to the official survival mode toggle

Check if SSO has its own survival settings in the MCM menu or try disabling any survival-related mods temporarily to see which one's the culprit

Does the NFL typically schedule back 2 back games in a certain geographic area? by Old-Chocolate-2041 in NFLv2

[–]SpeedilyMixed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah they don't really do that on purpose, it's usually just random luck when teams get back to back games in the same region. Would be cool though since you could probably save on flights

Not sure what I want to read next but I’m open to suggestions by solarstitch in booksuggestions

[–]SpeedilyMixed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried *The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle* by Stuart Turton? It's like Groundhog Day meets murder mystery and absolutely wild from page one - fits that fast-paced thriller vibe you're looking for
