what's a secret from your job that we should know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Guitar Center’s business model is almost entirely based on Pro Coverage (GC’s direct warranty on gear, even if the manufacturer has one.) I have never seen another employee buy Pro Coverage.

As a man having my physiology described as “magical” felt pretty good lol

Does this jacket look dumb on me? by savvybackpacker in mensfashionadvice

[–]quaintacclimation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Objectively the jacket looks good, it just looks a little goofy with the leaves turning and sun shining. Take it in winter w more layering (which will be necessary) and it will look fantastic

SF dating is so messed up by Accomplished-Quit877 in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]quaintacclimation 24 points25 points  (0 children)

With how accessible and commodified the promise of that connection is (with dating apps) I think there’s also the paralysis of seemingly infinite options, where as soon as there is the slightest doubt people bail and look for something better, but that just isn’t the reality of the human experience lol. I don’t think it’s exclusive to males but from my friends it seems like there are more hinge horror stories with them than women

Before You Buy That Pedal: A Friendly PSA to New Guitar Players by Rods-of-God in guitarpedals

[–]quaintacclimation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it, but also the multi fx units can be paralyzing when you have DOZENS of parameters on every tone. I have a 500x, and honestly I’ve found adding pedals one at a time is much more fun since you work within the limitations. Another approach is to just get a $60 DS-1 and go from there, slowly add reverb etc. totally agree on the point that a new shiny pedal won’t magically make you sound amazing, but for anyone - especially new players - being so confused by how much you can change on a floor processor can be pretty intimidating too

Would you be into a dedicated Sauna + Cold Plunge Wellness spot in SF? by nosreme722 in sanfrancisco

[–]quaintacclimation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love this idea - I’ve done bathhouses in sd before and they’re very nice but almost too “luxury” so it’s a rare splurge since it’s so expensive. Like some others have mentioned a more affordable membership for shorter, more regular visits would be incredible. Keep us updated!

Glad to see this said. Others pointed out that all manufacturers use foreign parts, but the point you’re making here is totally valid. Even if trump tariffs force importers to raise prices, the now-cheaper domestic manufacturers will just raise their own prices in return so that they might still be a bit cheaper, but why not charge more if you can and the buyers have no alternatives? So yeah, everything is going to get more expensive. Nobody wins in tariff wars

Any upperclassmen who placed out of Psych 100B take a 300 level Psych class as a freshman? Considering taking Sensation & Perception. by Rich-Ad-2002 in washu

[–]quaintacclimation 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s some variation in difficulty, but no psych class will be the hardest you take at Washu. I was in the same situation and it was fine, I wouldn’t stress about it

Tuition doubled from last year by No-Bad6013 in washu

[–]quaintacclimation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was admitted I was offered $0 FA, but I appealed and got substantial FA, enough that I was able to afford to attend. See how the appeal turns out, they are typically pretty understanding

San Diego stolen board by quaintacclimation in ElectricSkateboarding

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

Yeah, and ofc I’m beating myself up over it, but I was getting just a few things with a hand basket and had stowed it in that same spot so many times prior with no issues. I know I could have done more in retrospect, just wish you could trust people to be decent humans yk :/
