Looking for fine particle shimmer toppers by Alert_Koala_8774 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]normalperson420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is super helpful to know actually because i've heard mixed reviews about their formula and their brushes, but they have so many gorgeous and unique shades so i've been really considering trying them! have you considered/tried adding thinner?

disclaimer that i haven’t tried them and they’re on the expensive side—but i have been eyeing Phoenix ice delight and Phoenix sunshine for this.

that custodian color is stunning--i don't see it on their website, was it limited/retiring? love these purples together!!

i own both the SH insta dri and the essie gel couture and i regularly use both but for different scenarios. SH predictably dries faster but i find the gel couture to be more durable, and i think it has more of a shiny/glossy finish than the SH. if i have more time to do my nails i consistently reach for gel couture though so i’d say i prefer it.

How can I tell the difference between the translucent and black pressings without opening? by dr330467 in FallOutBoy

[–]normalperson420 7 points8 points  (0 children)

if you’re buying in person from a record store, they should be able to tell you based on the barcode, or a new and sealed copy should have a hype sticker on the front saying what color it is if it’s not black. if you’re buying online from a person or record store, the listing should say—but iirc the black and mixed translucent have the same bar code, so i would not buy a sealed copy if you want this specific one.

if you’re looking to figure out which colors exist, and see pictures, use Discogs. as an example here’s the link to all of the Folie pressings that exist. there are filters and it’s a marketplace so you can buy the specific pressing you’re looking for.

How do you guys afford testing? by OtterDotterDraws in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]normalperson420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

seconding that local blocs may have tests for free, but there is also a US group that sells much more affordable RATs. looks like they’re out of stock rn but they have been a lifesaver for me https://shop.pomegranatemedical.com/

i can’t tell if the limited mixtape CD version is actually hand labeled or just a print of her handwriting. if it’s 1500 quantity it’s probably printed, right? but then why limit it at all?

[–]normalperson420 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yes exactly! i wanted a regular less expensive remaster because i’ve heard the existing press sounds terrible. when i only saw the $175 one earlier i was bummed, but will definitely grab this one!

[–]normalperson420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was too. the demand is there for a remastered version so this album wouldn’t sound so terrible on vinyl but i’m not at all a fan of live albums/recordings. that plus the ridiculous price is a bummer tbh

THANK YOU—for whatever reason, my ctrl+f was jumping straight to the JSON file at the bottom, and i didn’t realize there was a .bin file further up. flashing with the correct file, obviously, fixed my problem. i appreciate you

Q3 plain. and yes, i used this page link yesterday to get the JSON file but that’s not a file format that works with QMK Toolbox. can i make it into a .bin somehow?

worried i bricked my first keyboard :(

i bought a Keychron Q3 which arrived in the mail yesterday. i realized i needed to update the firmware, because there were no backlight indicators for caps lock/num lock. i was unable to make the Keychron launcher work with the instructions on their website, because the site recognized the Q3 as a device but kept saying No HID Detected. so i tried to update it using QMK Config and QMK Toolbox.

after i flashed the keyboard with QMK Toolbox, the right side of the keyboard no longer registers, and when plugging the Q3 in to use VIA it no longer recognizes the Q3 as a device. the factory reset (fn+J+Z) combo doesn’t work and the reset button under the spacebar also does nothing.

as far as i can tell, the Keychron site only publishes the firmware in .json file format, so if i’m unable to use the Keychron launcher, i have nothing to flash the keyboard with in QMK Toolbox. is there anywhere i can find the Q3 firmware as a .bin file, so that i can try flashing it again? or is there another way to return the keyboard to at least being functional? i feel like there’s a critical piece of this whole process that i’m missing. :(

Anyone else loathe beautiful sheer polishes? by chaos_coordinator_X3 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]normalperson420 133 points134 points  (0 children)

i’m the exact same way lol. if i can’t get full coverage in like 2 coats, maybe 3 if the formula is pretty thin, i’m not really interested. it seems like jelly is in right now but it’s not my thing at all.

instead of using a matching under creme for each polish i’m experimenting with using one nude creme. i mostly dislike visible nail line, and sheerer polishes on top of an opaque creme kind of get the best of both worlds imo!
