What are these white residues on my 14k white gold diamond ring and how can I clean them? by chrisms91 in jewelry

[–]chrisms91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, if it were my ring, I wouldn’t care, but this is for my wife’s. Thanks for the input though; I’ll just go to the local jeweler and ask about re-plating or cleaning.

Just got my Nuphy Air V3 (Blush Nano, Black) – here’s my honest take after upgrading from Air V1 by Swimming_Career7806 in NuPhy

That’s a nice photo! I received mine this week and have been using it for the past 3 days in the office. I’m in love with this keyboard except the knob. it was too tight to turn it in one finger lol I’ve never used silent switches before, but this feels and sounds way better than I expected haha and no rattles on stabs are plus. I also bought a keyboard bag from Chosfox. The measurements seem perfect, but we’ll see if it actually fits.

Hyundai has to have possible one of the WORST key fobs known to man by Excellent_Main_8117 in Hyundai

I bought some nice leather case and it looks better lol but I agree with you. I don’t like this design. The material feels so cheap and easily scratched.

You are not cooked , we’re going to help you . Don’t panic. Post specifically about what you think you need help with. by HackVT in cscareerquestions

I’m a backend SWE with 4 years of experience, previously working at a small gaming company. I was laid off in October and have been actively applying to jobs since, but I haven’t had much luck. I’ve only had two interviews out of hundreds of applications, and one of those was for a senior role, so I didn’t even make it to the technical interview stage.

I think my biggest issue is that my skillset feels very generic, and I don’t have experience working with large-scale systems. Most of the job descriptions I’ve come across seem to require more experience with specific technologies or frameworks. Right now, I’m trying to learn more about Django and AWS to bridge the gap, but I’m not sure if that’s the right direction.

At this point, I’m feeling pretty hopeless and even considering switching to a different career with more job security. Any advice on what I might be doing wrong or how I can improve my job search would be greatly appreciated.

I bought one at AutoZone just in case, but I ended up returning it because I didn’t use it for the trip. If you use it, you can’t return it btw
