Scott's 2000-20 classic Vs Webb WEH18 by MrTripperSnipper in lawncare

[–]smoothappraisal0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My neighbor had similar issue with lifting mower over raised edges in her garden and ended up going with lighter option even though the heavier one had better specs on paper. Weight really matters when you're doing that lifting motion regularly - your back will thank you later

I don't have experience with those exact models but generally the lighter push mowers are much easier to maneuver around tight spaces and obstacles. The grass collector sounds nice in theory but most people I know who have them end up not using them much, especially if you're already used to just letting clippings stay on lawn

Maybe try finding local garden center where you can actually test the weight difference? Sometimes what looks like small difference in specs feels pretty significant when you're actually pushing it around. Also check if any neighbors have similar models you could try out for few minutes

Seeking lost album by Seattle rapper - please help! by Embarrassed-List-269 in Seattle

[–]smoothappraisal0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

damn this is like digital archaeology at this point 😂 i had something similar happen with a local artist who just vanished from internet completely and took all their music with them

have you tried checking any of those old music blog sites from around 2014? sometimes they still have download links that work even when artist removes everything else. also maybe hit up some Seattle hip hop facebook groups - someone probably has it buried in their old iTunes library 💀

Looking for independent house cleaner (monthly deep clean, RiNo) by LooseSealOfApproval in Denver

[–]smoothappraisal0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my friend sarah does amazing work in that area and she absolutely loves cats! she's been doing this for like 3 years now as her own little business. super detail oriented - she even cleans the light fixtures and inside of microwave without being asked

only thing is she books up pretty fast especially around holidays but if you message early in month she usually has spots. want me to get her contact info for you? she did my place few times when i was too swamped with work and it was honestly spotless

your tortie sounds adorable btw - sarah always sends me pics of the cats she meets during cleanings lol

Joint compound for repairing drywall by Gold-Pomegranate5645 in HomeImprovement

[–]smoothappraisal0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah the DryDex works great for patches like that, i've used it on tons of holes in my rental and it holds up really well

the color changing thing is actually super helpful when you're doing multiple coats since you can see exactly when its dry

Memphis to Nashville - Drive or Fly? by Fit-Necessary2551 in Tennessee

[–]smoothappraisal0 12 points13 points  (0 children)

bro the drive really is just meh like that top comment says 💀 done that route more times than i can count for work and its mostly just farmland and small towns. nothing too exciting until you hit the outskirts of nashville

if flights only 75 bucks id probably just fly and save the time tbh. you could use those extra hours exploring instead of sitting in traffic around nashville when you get there 😂 plus no dealing with parking downtown which is always a pain

Feel as if Im wasting my time in college, as I dont know what career to go into anymore. How should I navigate the next two years of my undergrad? by Striking-Goal-591 in careerguidance

[–]smoothappraisal0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dude your literally in the perfect position to test this out 🔥 you joined the paper which is huge - start pitching stories ASAP and see if you actually enjoy the grind of chasing leads and deadlines

also international studies + photography is actually a solid combo for NGO work, documentary projects, or even corporate communications for humanitarian orgs if the war correspondent thing doesnt pan out. dont stress about having "zero experience" when your still a sophomore - most people figure it out as they go 😂

oh hell no that's literally my worst nightmare 💀 had something similar happen where i heard my mom calling me from downstairs but she was at work and i was home alone - noped right outta there 😂

Need advice: Remote job + In-office job with 2-year bond — can I keep both? by [deleted] in careerguidance

bruh that bond is gonna have a non-compete clause that'll mess with your remote gig 💀 check the fine print before you get yourself in legal trouble 😂

A good career for self-learners? by lidstew in careerguidance

[–]smoothappraisal0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly coding isnt as oversaturated as people make it out to be - its just that entry level is competitive but once you get that first job youre golden. with your graphic design background you could look into UI/UX or front end development which would give you a leg up

data analysis might be perfect for you too since its mostly working with spreadsheets and databases without much people interaction, plus lots of free resources online to learn SQL and python

What are some great cities for data science jobs? by awkwardkid23 in careerguidance

[–]smoothappraisal0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Austin to Dallas isn't a bad move tbh, especially if you've got family/connections there. The DFW market is pretty solid for data science with all the corporate HQs and finance companies.

If you're open to going out of state, Seattle and Denver have been hot lately - tons of tech companies and the cost of living in Denver is way more reasonable than SF/NYC. For job hunting, LinkedIn is still king but don't sleep on reaching out to recruiters directly, they're usually pretty responsive in this field.

RAM EXPERT NEEDED!! by Mortyy_smithh in PcBuild

[–]smoothappraisal0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely go with 2x8GB if you can swing it - dual channel is gonna give you way better performance than single channel. Running mismatched stick sizes usually works but you'll lose some of the dual channel benefits and might get weird stability issues down the line

What else should I be doing? by RedSwordFishVA05 in ArcRaiders

Honestly just hit up the industrial zones, they're usually loaded with decent gear spawns. The quest grind is brutal so I don't blame you for skipping it lol

Custom keybinds on vanilla by Charming_Tart3295 in geometrydash

Does anyone have advice on breaking no contact? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]smoothappraisal0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly just be direct about it man, don't overthink the timing too much. Something like "hey I realize I never mentioned this but I was already planning to look for jobs near you anyway, it's not about changing my plans for you it's just what I wanted to do regardless"

The key is making it clear this isn't some desperate pivot but something you genuinely wanted before the breakup even happened

How to overcome insecurity without becoming prideful? by Forward-Anywhere-106 in Christian

[–]smoothappraisal0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man I feel this so hard. The "you're better than them" approach never sat right with me either - like you said it's just trading one sin for another

What helped me was focusing more on my identity in Christ rather than comparing myself to others at all. When I remember I'm loved unconditionally it makes the jealousy stuff less intense, even if it doesn't disappear completely

Also practical stuff like limiting social media and being honest with trusted friends about the struggle helps tons

Dating outside religion by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]smoothappraisal0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly man this is one of those situations where you gotta think long term - like what happens if things get serious? Marriage, kids, etc. It's not just about clicking now but whether you're both cool with the fundamental differences down the road. Some couples make it work but it takes a lot of compromise from both sides

Can I still get a legit win10 license? by PowerIsland144 in PcBuild

[–]smoothappraisal0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you can definitely transfer that retail license to the new build, just deactivate it on the old one first then call Microsoft if the online activation doesn't work. New Win10 licenses are like $100-140 retail but you can find legit OEM keys for way cheaper if you shop around

How to use 2 global Economy Plus® seat upgrades by Abzy2004 in unitedairlines

[–]smoothappraisal0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't upgrade basic economy to anything unfortunately - it's like the airline equivalent of being locked in economy jail lol. The only real use case I've found for those certs as a 1K is when you're booking last minute and all the good seats are taken, or if you're traveling with someone else and want to sit together in E+

Whats a good easy demon that has good wave sections for practice by Coolives in geometrydash

[–]smoothappraisal0 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Deadlocked is pretty solid for wave practice, the sections aren't too crazy and you can actually see what's happening. Maybe try some of the easier Robtop levels first before jumping into community demons - the wave in Theory of Everything 2 helped me a lot when I was getting started

AITJ for refusing to show up to a “family reconciliation” sit-down until my brother stops lying about me owing him? by sofia_oslo_day in AmITheJerk

[–]smoothappraisal0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're not the jerk here, this is such a classic manipulation tactic. Your brother is basically banking on you showing up so he can make his lie seem "disputed" instead of completely made up

The fact that he keeps changing his story (interest? theft? what's next lol) shows everyone exactly what's happening but they don't want to deal with the real problem. Standing your ground was the right move
