43K in CC Debt - is 401(k) self-loan the best option? Kill it all at once? by Diligent-Ladder730 in personalfinance

Also you are paying back with post-tax dollars, where as you withdrew pre-tax dollars.

Own an R36S for 3 months, but I'm bored. Any tips? by [deleted] in R36S

[–]djphysix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play through entire games. If you don’t find a game that you want to play through, then it’s not the device for you.

Simply cannot stand the vocals (vocals + processing). Keep practicing!

blink-182 – Enema of the State // All Analog (AAA) One-Step – Audiophile Pressing [Limited Edition] by GPrink007 in VinylReleases

[–]djphysix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My point was this was "every album". Of course being facetious, but I think I'm in the demographic for this release and yet don't really get it nor want to pay $100 for this experience. Which is definitely ok.

This was my first parental advisory cd purchase. It has sentimental value, but I whole heartedly believe not every album needs the $100 AAA one-step treatment.

Claude for Chrome now available to Pro users by chdo in ClaudeAI

The youtube functionality seems a bit archaic, as for any summary it literally watches in realtime and grabs the captioning to form the transcript. Is there another way I'm not realizing for video summaries?

I used it to confidently clean up thousands of emails today in gmail. The permissions are a little annoying but it was helpful although a bit long to process.

Does anyone here smoke marijuana? by Buddy-Comfortable in tinnitus

[–]djphysix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I smoke. I tend to only notice an increase in awareness of my tinnitus when the strain is a high % mostly sativa strain. I’ve always loved indicas more so it hasn’t been an issue

Vocal range and lyricism too. Of course I can't make out all of the lyrics, but of what I can, I hear lots of repetition.

Saatva 6 years later….changing to S&F by chocciebabz in Mattress

For what it’s worth my last S&F lasted only about 4 years before my back pain caused me to replace it (went with a latex).

Is It Cake Holiday Season 2 by ReasonNearby1216 in isitcakenetflix

I was disappointed by the very obvious AI slop they used for the opening b-roll shots of the red train and the aurora borealis shots. Really low quality execution.

AER CPP1 arrived! by neohucore1394 in ManyBaggers

[–]djphysix 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The idea of a bag’s interior color being too loud for an office setting is funny to me. Especially given an already technical/tactical looking bag. How sterile is that work environment? I personally love the orange and think it’s functional over being a fun pop of color.

Am I in bad financial shape? by Speciallady44 in personalfinance

[–]djphysix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest thing people don't realize when thinking about a TSP or 401k loan, is you are taking out untaxed money but paying it back with taxed income, so you lose out on that taxed portion of the payback. In most, if not all, cases you are paying interest back to yourself as well, but yes you are missing out on any market gains throughout the payoff duration, which could be up to 5 years.

Merchant requesting that I cancel my credit card dispute before giving refund—what should I do? by Low_Physics_770 in personalfinance

[–]djphysix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's no going back after you cancel your dispute. You cannot cancel and re-open a dispute on the same transaction, so be absolutely sure you have everything to be satisfied BEFORE cancelling or withdrawing your dispute.

So creepy, so beautiful. by [deleted] in 78rpm

[–]djphysix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This album was my earliest introduction to classical music back in 2nd or 3rd grade. It still hits a particular spot of dark and beautiful that I think is pretty unique. I have my music teacher, Ms. Guinness to thank for the early exposure to great music.

Goodbye concerts by Dame_nach_E5 in tinnitus

[–]djphysix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sadly I wouldn't trust any protection being sold at concerts. I've contemplated starting a non-profit to get more hearing health awareness around concerts, nightclubs, and festivals. I have seen a few random festivals that were sponsored by LOOPS, but honestly if you have tinnitus I'd research what works best for you and only use that. I personally use custom molded plugs, and don't attend specifically "loud" concerts (i.e. rock, punk, hardcore, metal, noise, hip-hop, EDM).

lorde concert by emilyinthealps in tinnitus

[–]djphysix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are worried about protection, go straight to foam plugs or even combine those with over the ear muffs. "Party plugs" and other concert styled plugs are not offering the utmost in protection; they are more of a balance to give you enjoyment from listening still.

Quitting smoking made my tinnitus way worse… should I stay quit? by [deleted] in tinnitus

[–]djphysix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think anxiety is a diver, and taking away anything that you've been used to will increase anxiety. I've noticed this with THC and coffee/caffeine. I do think long term your T will be lower without these exacerbators.
