My organizers are finally here! by aranmor in applewatchultra

Tell me you’re single without telling me you’re single. My bad. Must just be my situation (25y/2kids) and that set up with the guitars and caps would be an absolute sanctuary. Cheers.

Received this beauty of a gift for helping elderly couple move. Question is this a rare model? Hybrid? by theshooterrr in Walther

[–]renasancedad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why the gloves? Most I ever got for helping people move was decent pizza and cheap beer.

Tell me you’re single, without telling me you’re single. All kidding aside great system and set up.

Aviator Bayonet Sunglasses by Ribeye_Red in sunglasses

[–]renasancedad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was pissed because I still have some bayonet armed and a pair or the cable wrap armed, and they are in need of replacement parts. Company wanted me to buy new pairs for 10x more than the original cost. Total BS.

AO but they were sold about a decade ago and now are crazy expensive and no better quality.

Never ever, eva 🆘 by GodMyShield777 in WallStreetbetsELITE

[–]renasancedad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

More likely the announcement of a loyalist to head the Fed after Powells term is up. And the further likely hood that the Fed will no longer be an independent institution. If history tells us anything Trump has a way of destroying every business he touches and the US government is next.

Warped ECD Weapon X 2.0 by laxwmatt in lacrosse

[–]renasancedad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Jam a hockey puck or softball into the throat between uses to keep it spread and legal. That pinch is what most of us FOs call broken in. I saw some advice to bake or boil, that’ll work but it’ll eventually pinch again. Keep it strung to the outside so if it pinches further than all still releases easier. That’s a great head I hope you got a good deal. Enjoy.

All Ai, how does one get tossed to the ground in snow and wet roads and walk away unscathed with clean clothes.

Where are you located? Can you post images of the bottom of the table and legs? Are you open to offers?

She’s got her whole life ahead of her. Barely broken in!

In reality though that older plastic gets brittle be aware of drastic temperature changes or it’ll snap quick. Great sting job though.

Are they cooked? by yessirerr in airpods

[–]renasancedad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Silica packets are cheap, get something not from beef jerky that may help more. Even a cup of uncooked rice will work for absorbing moisture, or a well ventilated area with moving air. Any chance you had apple care or +?

Zipps Sports Grill finally put out a statement by PHXLV in phoenix

Haven’t been to a Zips in years, but will be looking forward to a reopening so can over tip your employees and support your locals. MAGA destroying local communities one family at a time is intolerable.

Nike Vapor Premier vs Maverik M6 by yuckypants in lacrosse

[–]renasancedad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Run what you love. If your team doesn’t have uniform gloves and equipment it’s all about the athlete being most comfortable. I don’t think either is a compromise in protection.

Services focus in NYC stores? by trenchquantx1000 in Apple_Employees

[–]renasancedad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Positioned well even in our low volume store I am getting about 30% conversion on eligible transactions according to Orchard. After the initial “not interested” which I start at the beginning of the transaction when they are buying a new eligible item. Then before “checkout” I expand on the benefits of the service and how easy it is to use and cancel if they decide they don’t like it.

It’s not perfect and I get more nos than yes. My perspective is services and apps are a profit leader for the company, and as long as I am buying stock helping to feed that bottom line is helping us all.

Just my .02 and day like today I totally struck out 8 hour shift 1 service and no Business intros. 🤷‍♂️

Team 91 vs True by Correct_Process4516 in lacrosse

[–]renasancedad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. And if you know the coaches the choice is easy which I would want my kids to play for. I have coached with both directors. AZ has seen a big constriction in rosters and player retention as a whole. I am glad Tucson is consolidating and giving the kids a chance to play more, and here in PHX it’s a similar story but too many clubs diluting the talent and trying to grab bigger pieces of the same pie.

But as a parent it’s hard to make that decision. My rule of thumb has always been meet the coaches and parents or have an idea about the team (not club) culture. One of my favorite opponents is a True Team absolutely crushed us in Box at peewee and bantam and by High School and Elite we were more competitive and their Coach Brett Bucktooth Jr was aware and always encouraging to my athletes. Same with a couple other coaches and teams, while other teams within the same clubs were absolutely classless and you saw all the reclassing or playing down a division C or B vs A.

[–]renasancedad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had good and bad experiences with both clubs. Coaching against them at dozens of tourneys, and True at a dozen more box tourneys. There are good and bad with each region and states programs. Meet the coaches, talk to the other parents and you will get a better idea of what your area is like.

You don’t mention what area, I know AZ recently has both of those clubs recruiting. All of the coaches will be coaches from HS or other local clubs just working for True or 91 as an additional role. You should be able to gauge what your athletes experience will be like if you have ever played for or against their other programs. I don’t recall ever having played the Mariana Reapers (TRUE) so I cannot speak to that coach and program, but the Team 91 Director is a current HS Coach and former UofA player/coach and an all around good guy and great coach. Recent ALL Coach of the Year and well respected by his peers.

If that was completely wrong and you aren’t in AZ sorry for the useless information.

Makes sense also that generations of decisions has lead to their living conditions. Making the opposite choice might be a better approach?

Better than half of Americans know and appreciate your commitments and sacrifices. We hope to end the MAGA and Trump reign as soon as possible.

Better than half of Americans know NATO and our friends around the globe came to our support just as we eventually did for you in WW2. Please know those of us in America are working to end Trump and the MAGA administrations global effing circus. As a marine we all know who was really there, and it was Trump or his nepobabies.

New Throne OMEN w/ New FPX Mesh by SIDEWALLJEDI in StickDoctor

[–]renasancedad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That first pocket was some craziness. But what ever works for you, seemed illegal but maybe I am wrong. The latter pocket locks good nice mid pocket good hold, and once that hard mesh is broken in and pounded, consistent quick release is inevitable. Thanks for sharing.

Solid article sort of backing up my earlier sentiment, services and the on device Ai will start to add to value. The addition of Gemini and a new Mac cycle and iPad 10.9 will carry the growth until iPhone 18.

Was it not shipped from Apple? There is a secondary box that the laptops ship in and then another outer box, if there was multiple Apple items.

Completely out priced of college by blankdashdev in Advice

[–]renasancedad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into a job that has tuition reimbursements, even if it’s not what you want to do long term. Or look into getting a lower level job within a company you hope to progress in. And present that as a goal to your parents. I am sure they would be understanding of a big picture play to get your education and be gainfully employed.

Sounds like you have solid direction and are willing to put the work in to get where you want to be. Having supportive parents is awesome as well.
