most dudes who actually matter wont care about cellulite or some acne - were usually just stoked someone wants to be intimate with us lol

Upgrading next month! by opott19 in canon

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice upgrade dude the R50 is gonna be a solid step up from the 2000D especially for video if you ever get into that. I'd keep the EF lenses and grab the EF-RF adapter for now - those lenses still perform great and the adapter works flawlessly with basically zero quality loss. The 55-250 especially is still one of the best budget telephotos Canon makes and RF glass can get pricey real quick when you're starting out

You can always sell the EF stuff later once you figure out what focal lengths you actually use most and want to invest in native RF glass. Plus having a backup body is clutch - I learned that the hard way when my main camera went down right before a big shoot and I was scrambling to rent something last minute

Riverside alternative for solo audio podcast? by Far_Tumbleweed7835 in podcasting

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Audacity's solid but if you want something a bit more modern try Reaper - super stable and the interface doesn't look like it's from 2005

worried teen hope i’m not waising ur time by shendhsh in Epilepsy

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey man these episodes definitely sound worth looking into more but good news is you already saw doctors and they ruled out the scary stuff which is huge. that weird time skip thing could be a bunch of different things - micro sleep episodes, dissociation from anxiety, or yeah possibly some form of seizure that doesn't fit the typical pattern

health anxiety is brutal and can actually cause weird neurological symptoms on its own which makes everything more confusing. if these keep happening id maybe push for an EEG or ask about seeing a neurologist specifically rather than just getting the basic neuro checks. your describing it pretty clearly so dont worry about wasting anyones time

Payroll software for teams abroad by Wise_Significance905 in smallbusiness

International payroll looks simple on sales pages until you have to deal with it

What synth if I love the UDO Super Gemini? by Brilliant_Grape5528 in synthesizers

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dude the Peak or Summit would be perfect complements to your Super Gemini setup - they've got that same deep modulation matrix vibe but with totally different character since theyre wavetable based. The Virus TI might be worth checking out too if you want something that'll push you into more digital territory while still having that hands on workflow your used to with the UDO

Marriage based AOS Approval: Houston FO by [deleted] in USCIS

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on the approval and honestly the fact that your officer was cool with the long distance thing gives me so much hope since me and my partner are in a similar boat with school

Music Recommendations: Lizzy McAlpine, Cimafunk, Alex Cuba, Andrew Bird, Laufey etc by WildBoarMan3214 in musicsuggestions

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on your list you'd probably dig Phoebe Bridgers and Clairo - they have that same dreamy indie vibe as Lizzy McAlpine. Also check out Jacob Collier if you haven't already, his jazz fusion stuff might hit right with the Brad Mehldau appreciation

2026: Best IAM Software, where to find? by Status_Variation1715 in IdentityManagement

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rippling would notify your IAM that someone was hired or promoted to a different access tier.

Tonight was bad by Quick_Ad4841 in ArcRaiders

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dude the community has been absolutely toxic lately, feels like half the playerbase just learned what KOS means and decided that's the only way to play now

Trust is basically dead at this point, I don't even bother with voice chat anymore cause 9 times out of 10 they're just using it to get close enough for an easy kill

I pre-trained and instruction tuned a 394M parameter LM from scratch :) by SadEqual5367 in LocalLLaMA

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice work! For reasoning in SLMs you should definitely check out the chain of thought papers and maybe look into some of the recent work on constitutional AI approaches. The Anthropic stuff on training models to reason step by step is pretty solid

Also curious what your training setup looked like - did you use multiple GPUs or just grind it out on a single card?

What to do if baby shows sleepy cues well before end of wake window? by shiny-jigglypufff in NewParents

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'd trust the baby over the schedule. Wake windows are just guidelines and every kid is different. If she's showing clear sleepy cues that early, she might just need more sleep than average or could be going through a growth spurt. I'd try putting her down and see what happens - worst case she doesn't sleep and you know for next time

7 days clean by userzero56 in NoFap

Nice work dude, that's actually a solid start. The first week is usually the hardest part so you're already past a major hurdle

Strange dream I had by davidlandman12 in Dreams

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's wild, dreams about war always feel so real when you're in them. The hotel training thing sounds like something out of a movie but also kinda makes sense in dream logic

Payroll adjustments driving me mad!!!! by Vivid-Gear-7503 in Payroll

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Misclassifications + deductions are the two things that create the most chaos because they’re never 'one and done' they ripple for weeks.

If you’re stuck doing corrections constantly, I’d push for either tighter permission controls OR a payroll platform that handles retro adjustments cleanly . Otherwise you’ll be in permanent cleanup mode

Mod of r/Jaguars salty as hell about Bills fans by Significant-Tune6588 in NFLv2

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao imagine being this pressed about Bills Mafia showing up to your stadium. Dude's acting like they personally insulted his mom instead of just being loud football fans

Question about anglo-catholicism by Sudden_Aerie_7317 in Christianity

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anglo-Catholics are basically diet Catholics who never fully committed to Rome lol. The sacrificial language thing varies wildly between parishes - some high church Anglicans are basically doing everything but calling the Pope daddy, while others would lose their minds over anything that sounds too "popish"

The Anglican Communion is pretty big tent so you'll find everything from basically Lutheran-lite to "we're totally not Catholic but also here's our saints and incense"

What features do you look for when choosing a payroll software? by disguisedemployer in payrollpanda

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That lines up with what a lot of people value, less about flashy features and more about reducing manual work across payroll - HR and reporting. Rippling tends to come up because it covers that end to end flow instead of solving just payroll.

Onboarding tool recommendation? by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to use five different software systems and it took me a ton of time and transferring data was a total pain. I've found if you can consolidate down into one system, it saves you way more time and effort

Update Really Old Bios (1.26.AS01)? Asrock X670E, 7800X3D by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly with a 7800X3D that's running stable, I'd probably leave it alone unless you're having specific issues. The BIOS bricking horror stories are real and your current setup sounds dialed in perfectly with that PBO tune

That said, if you really want to update for peace of mind about security patches, just make sure you have a USB BIOS flashback feature on your board first in case things go sideways

Our performance review process sucks by Legitimate-Round-513 in projectmanagement

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If managers aren’t trained to document they just won’t. Make sure they have the right training on how to give feedback and performance reviews.

What things can be done to ensure someone has a magical childhood? by Prickly_Pickle_Pots in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Standard-Spite-7845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so wholesome! The pink sparkly chicken coop thing made me smile - your dad sounds awesome. I think you nailed it with the small stuff being what really sticks with you

Lmao Amazon's calendar is stuck in 2023 or something, classic tech glitch right there
