A while ago, I picked up an XTRA Muse mostly because I was curious how this rebrand stack up against the big brands. I wasn’t thinking of it as some money making play. I just wanted a small camera for walking clips, desk shots, travel b roll, and all the little moments that feel annoying to shoot on my phone

The video idea was honestly pretty simple: can a cheaper pocket cam actually be good enough for normal creators?

No crazy production. I shot some side by side style clips, talked about what felt good, what felt a little awkward, and whether it made sense compared to more expensive pocket cams. I also kept in the parts I usually would have cut, like me fumbling with the app a bit and testing it in bad indoor lighting, because that’s the stuff people a

We currently only work in Europe, but we are expanding our operation into the US and Canada. Demand is getting way too high, so we need a reliable wholesale supplier who can handle huge bulk orders and consistently meet our monthly quotas.

Just filling this out so the automod does not delete the post:

• Location: We operate in Europe but need shipping to the US and Canada.
• MOQ: We are looking for suppliers who can handle heavy volume and large bulk orders.
• Proof: You must have up to date COAs that show testing for both purity and endotoxins.

Inconsistent shipping is a major deal breaker for us. We had a lot of issues with shipping delays with our last vendor and we really want to avoid that headache this time around. Drop a DM if you have the inventory and logistics to handle this.

I’m trying to avoid bringing too much camera gear on trips this year.​ I used to think I needed a “real” camera setup for everything, but honestly most of my favorite travel clips are just quick moments. Street food, walking around, hotel room clips, train stations, random views, that kind of stuff.​ So now I’m leaning more toward a phone + tiny pocket cam combo instead of bringing a bigger setup.​

I’ve been testing a small pocket cam recently and I’m starting to understand the appeal. It’s not really about having the best image quality. It’s more about having something easy enough to pull out without thinking too much. ​

The two I’ve been looking at most are Pocket 3 and XTRA Muse. Pocket 3 seems like the obvious safe pick. Muse also caught my eye because it seems smaller-budget friendly and probably good enough for casual travel clips. For people who travel lightly, do you bring a pocket cam, action cam, or just use your phone? And if you’ve used Pocket 3 or Muse, did it actually make travel filming easier?

I’m planning a kitchen remodel and trying to figure out if replacing my old fridge is actually worth it financially or if I’m overthinking it. It’s around 10 to 12 years old and still working fine, so I’m not sure if upgrading now would really save me anything or just add unnecessary cost. At the same time, my microwave has been acting up and randomly shuts off, so I’m also debating if that’s something worth repairing or just replacing. How do you guys usually decide this, do you actually calculate costs or just go with what feels right? Also, if anyone knows reliable local stores for appliances, I’d appreciate the suggestions.

been on reta for about a month now and my appetite is basically gone but i still want to actually enjoy what little i do eat instead of just surviving on chicken breast and protein shakes like every tiktok makes it seem. is eating food that actually tastes good even realistic on this or does everything just lose its appeal regardless

I’m about 2-3 weeks out from Step 2. Done most of a qbank, taken a few NBMEs, and my desk is already covered in PDFs, notes, and screenshots. Every time I look online, someone recommends adding another thing, a different podcast, a new deck, a “must-do” last-minute guide. I feel like I’m drowning in options instead of reviewing. For those who’ve been through this: what did you actually keep in your final weeks? Not what you collected or wanted to do, but what you genuinely used and found helpful without turning your brain into soup. Looking for the minimalist, real-people answer. HELP!!! please, thank you.

I am officially putting myself on a strict "no blind buying" ban for the rest of the year. I cannot tell you how much money I’ve wasted buying full bottles based on YouTube hype or fragrantica notes, only to realize that the dry down turns sour on my skin chemistry. Because of this, I’ve become totally obsessed with sample kits. I think it is an absolute crime that some of these luxury niche houses charge $60-$80 just for a few 2ml vials. Exploring scents should be fun, not a massive financial commitment.

I’ve been hunting for houses that actually want you to test their stuff fairly. Last week, I grabbed a discovery set from Hayati New York for only 20 bucks, and it came with 6 different EDP sprays. Being able to test them out over a full week to see how long they actually last (and they last a long time) before dropping $100+ on a bottle is such a relief.

Why don't more brands do this? Who else offers genuinely affordable, high-quality discovery sets that won't break the bank? I’m looking for indies, smaller niche brands, or anyone putting out great 2ml/5ml sets under the $30 mark.

I was looking over our production from last month and noticed a significant dip in how many crowns were actually scheduled versus how many were diagnosed. Trying to track this down in Dentrix is such a headache and it takes forever to get a clear picture of what happened. A colleague told me they just plugged in rootdata to get a weekly summary sent to their email so they dont have to go digging through the software. It seems like a much better way to spot revenue leaks before they get out of hand. How are you all monitoring your KPIs without spending your entire Sunday afternoon in the office?

Hello guys, I’m new here but I need your help;I’m at a crossroads where HubSpot is getting too expensive. I am checking out 8ration to see if a custom build would save me money in the long run. Anyone have experience with the ROI on custom business software?

I saw this comparison floating around earlier (Pocket 4 Pro vs MUSE 2 Pro), but honestly it made me think less about specs and more about availability. I’ve been seeing some mixed info about Pocket 4 in the U.S, not sure what’s actually going on there, but it doesn’t feel as straightforward as previous releases. At the same time, stuff like MUSE 2 is starting to show up in leaks, and it looks like it’s aiming for a similar space spec-wise. If that ends up being easier to get in the U.S., that could actually matter more than small differences on paper. Feels like we’re at a point where everything’s pretty close in terms of hardware anyway — 1" sensors, similar DR, slow mo, log, etc. So it almost comes down to what you can actually buy and use.
