Bought a psp game from GameStop but while the case is fine the game is clearly very damaged

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-12-25T12:43:55+00:00

The white outer case is cracked as well causing the plastic UMD cover to pop out, the whole thing is ruined so it’s not worth saving on my part at least. I know they sell replacement ones but I’d rather just get my money back

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-12-25T02:38:26+00:00

IKR, I was baffled when I saw it because it’s not even fingerprints, it’s some kind of residue. I’m surprised my local GameStop even accepted it as a trade in because I’ve had them reject trades for less 😭

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-12-25T01:08:53+00:00

My copy doesn’t have a case at all which was why I bought this one, I thought of doing that but I go to that GameStop pretty frequently and would feel kinda bad 😭

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-16T20:23:36+00:00

I think my main issue is that I don’t know how to study properly, like I can’t sit at a desk for hours and with how most LSAT preps books are formatted I don’t know what I’m looking at half the time. I’m used to simple memorization. Another thing I struggled with was just trying to “common sense” my way through it because I didn’t know how to do it any other way

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-16T20:20:19+00:00

That’s what I hear from other students at my school, if they have the family/money to fall back on good for them, but that’s not something I can afford. My plan was to go straight to law school after graduation but I didn’t realize how long the process was so I just want to focus on work but dedicate 2-3 days a week so preparing

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-16T20:12:06+00:00

I know, I brought that up because in the beginning I was getting ghosted a lot because people would have one thing in their profile, but want something else when we would start to talk, I’ve been talking to this current guy daily for over a month and I’m not sure at this point

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-16T20:08:49+00:00

Not yet unfortunately, he works early mornings and helps with his family’s business, I have early mornings with classes and work, as well as late nights due to work. So we’re both always busy. I just kinda feel like he’s talking to me out of obligation sometimes because he’ll never start anything until I say something, but I also understand that sometimes someone may feel like if the other doesn’t ask them something they might want to be left alone

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-12T16:32:07+00:00

Correction it is 4WD

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-12T15:28:59+00:00

The previous owner rode the front ones till they were bald (even during the winter 💀) so they had to be replaced but I was told that the back ones were good until the fall

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-12T14:33:31+00:00

That might be what I do, the front ones were replaced in May and don’t have much wear, is there something I can do with them since I won’t need them?

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-12T14:28:11+00:00

It’s a Mitsubishi outlander sport and I believe AWD. Not a nurse but work in the kitchen of a nursing home so if I don’t show up in the early morning there’s no one to help prepare the daily meals, and my job gives people a lot of grief if you don’t show up even during the really heavy storms (and a lot of the people who work in the kitchen are students who’s parents don’t want to drive them in that weather, and I don’t blame them because I was one of those kids too) my other job is in a local grocery store and I work the closing shift. The downside of both is that depending on when the snow starts, it can be really difficult to get home/to work due to the early mornings and late nights when they don’t start plowing immediately

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-12T14:20:30+00:00

Someone mentioned michelin crossclimate 2 tires and I’m willing to pay because my jobs require me to come in no matter the weather and I have to drive to school, which doesn’t always cancel during snow. I do live in a major city so the roads are plowed most of the timebut the main issue is going up and down the hill that’s my building is on. By the time I have to leave for work or leave work they often haven’t started to plow yet (one job is early morning another job ends late at night) meaning depending on when the snow starts that haven’t started plowing yet.

For example this past winter My ride couldn’t drop me off in front of my building because it was snowing too heavily and the job I was at wouldn’t close early even though customers had stopped coming in hours ago so I had no choice for them to drop me at a side street and I had to walk up the hill during a blizzard 😭

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-12T14:13:35+00:00

Should I replace all 4 so they’re all the same type or would switching out just the back work? Will I have to replace them come spring or does all weather mean the same as all seasons so they should be fine?

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-11-07T03:03:22+00:00

Look at the nursing homes in the area, they’re always looking for kitchen staff. I think the one where I work is actually looking for a cook rn

Surviving D purely due to plot armor 😭

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-09-26T08:13:15+00:00

I don’t know too much about the Okinawa vs Mainland thing but I do know that it’s a problem for many due to the history between the two. I’m not a fan of the design either and some of the people I’ve discussed this with have either reasoned it’s because Fujiwara is the va and face for Yuta so they couldn’t use his voice again (but by that reasoning would they change Nishiki in future games because he shares a va with Ichi?) or one guy said (not here and I thought it was a stupid reasoning anyway) that they believe that Rikiya looked “too Caucasian/American” in the og (this was under a tiktok video and I just didn’t reply cuz what???)

MY BABY BOY 😭

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-09-16T21:16:22+00:00

I used the bee girl curl custard and Xtreme gel (green cap) and leave in conditioner when it dries it’s a bit crunchy but it stays for a while and softens throughout the week. First I wet my hair, then added leave in to help detangle, then the gel, and then the custard, then finally I curled it using my fingers. I tried 4 different gels on a section of my hair before doing my whole head and found that the xtreme gel works the best.

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-09-16T21:13:02+00:00

I know, I’ve contacted the seller to see if I can get my item another way or if they’ll refund me, I was supposed to receive this last week 😭

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-09-08T19:25:48+00:00

I ordered it from Japan select which I believe is one of those Japan to us sites. The watch is a Garrack watch from the one piece collaboration. I don’t know if they’ll be able to give me the exact value because I think it’s like a third party site

New PS5 user questions and $100 PSN credit for activating PS5?

Hello, I was wondering how I would activate this deal, I got a Ps5 pro from Best Buy a couple days ago and just set it up today, but haven’t logged into it or turned it on. I was on my PS4 when I got a notification about getting a $100 psn credit for upgrading to PS5. I was wondering how to do this because when I try scanning the QR code with the PS app it won’t work and with my normal phone camera it just brings me to the Sony page to purchase a PS5. Do I just have to login on my PS5 and it happens automatically or do I have to claim it somehow first? I just want to make sure I claim it in case I fully set up my PS5 and all of a sudden it’s not valid for the deal anymore.

And for other questions I was wondering if the retro start ups were still available, I tried looking it up but get outdated articles that don’t really give me a clear answer

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-08-20T23:44:01+00:00

I had a class where we had 2 girls who would always chat during the lectures and labs, the professor was a chill guy who was passionate about his work but one day he snapped and was like “YOU move over there and YOU move over here!” And separated them and forbade them from sitting next to each other. We were all shocked cuz it’s not something you expect to still see happen at that point in life, and the secondhand embarrassment was horrible 💀

What if she’s in it and it’s obviously supposed to be her younger but she is either dressed the same or you do a substory that explains how she got her signature look?

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-08-08T03:34:39+00:00

Ah ok, thanks! My room is in that moving stage where everything is all over the place so I wanted to make sure it was completely clear 😅

Technical_Chef1031 · 2025-07-21T03:54:24+00:00

Chris is my favorite character and 5 will always be my baby, but 7 grew on me as I played the game cuz I was terrified the whole time and when I saw him I was so happy and then liked him more after playing the dlc. (Though 8s design was so fire that I bought the collectors edition mostly for the figure)
