Extremely fortunate to be getting a Macan S as it is a car I love. I was wondering what were some subtle cosmetic upgrades I can do to it.
I don’t want to make the car look like ass, but I was wondering if there was any cosmetics that could slightly elevate it.
The car is in excellent condition as is, but just wondering
New to collecting, bought this today. I like the look of CGC way way more than PSA. How did I do!
I sold a person an Xbox series s, which was delivered to them June 25th, then last night (30th) they requested a refund saying all this stuff about how it doesn’t work and stuff. Today they send me this diagnostic report that says took place just a few hours ago
The Xbox I sold was working perfectly, I used it up until like 2 weeks before selling, as I got the series x as an upgrade. I even wiped the console and showed it plugged in and working fine in the photos. I package it exceptionally well in a good box with bubble wrap and secure tape.
I feel like something is off. Like if it was smashed I would get it, shipping accident, but things like the hdmi and WiFi being messed up? I never had those issues at all.
I sold a person an Xbox series s, which I used up until about 2 weeks before selling it, after owning it for several years. In the post I showed about 5 different photos of the Xbox itself and photos of the Xbox plugged in working. It works as it should, and honestly for a several year old Xbox, it’s pristine. I put it in an appropriate box, wrapped in a bunch of bubble wrap, and bubble wrap around it. Unless the shipper stomped on it, I don’t get how it would be damaged.
4 days later they are saying it doesn’t work or some type of connection issues associated with it. They opened a ticket and I don’t know what to do. I mean it was working 110% perfectly and I packaged it immaculately. I feel like something is up that isn’t my fault at all.
Wtf do I do.
I'm new to collecting so forgive me if this is a bad question.
I've noticed through all my shopping this past month as I get into the hobby, that CGC is considerably cheaper than PSA, even if they are the exact same grade. That made me think that the card grading is less stringent and therefore the PSA card quality will be higher than the CGC cards quality, but I'm kind of seeing the opposite?
For example I'm collecting Team Rocket cards
I found a PSA 8, 1st edition Dark Blastoise for 100ish
I then found the same card but in CGC for 70.
The catch is that the CGC looked way better aesthetically. Way less imperfections on the back of the card and overall it just looked like it should've been a grade above the PSA 8, if that makes sense. It looked like what I'd imagine a PSA 9 to look like I guess.
I've noticed this essentially across the board when looking through different cards.
What is the catch? Why pay more for a card that has visibility more imperfections ?
I downloaded Bumble in mid March. Absolute radio silence for 3 weeks, and it really made me feel bad about myself. In no ways am I a 10/10, but I’m tall, in decent shape, and I had some great photos on the app, but still, 0 likes.
I eventually just said fuck it and built up the courage to ask a girl out in person, and it worked. We didn’t vibe but I guess it proved to myself I wasn’t so horrifically awful looking that I could in fact get a date. The next girl I asked out had a bf. Then the next one I asked out is now my gf.
I completely forgot I even had the app up until like 2 days ago, and when I went to delete it, I clicked on it, and still 0 matches or likes. Literally 0
I just don’t get it lol. Must have swiped on a billion ppl when I was using it
My binder from when I was 6 years old, 20 years ago ,ended up having some really cool cards, and I decided that I wanted to start a collection. I bought this graded blastoise on eBay today impulsively, and now I’m unsure. I bought this for 89 dollars, and the seller has a 100% positive rate with 500 sales.
The PSA barcode and certification numbers work, but I’m nervous. How do I know I didn’t just buy a fake card or something. There’s some tiny imprefections on the edges of the card so when it comes I’ll be able to know immediately if the card is the same as shown in photos, but just from the photos themselves does it look legit?
I’m probably just being paranoid but advice is very welcomed.
Was looking through stuff from my childhood, and found this tucked in a book from 2006-2007 about my favorite things from when I was a little kid.
Idk why but between the card being tucked in there, and the cute little kid stuff I wrote down, I’m literally typing this while crying. Hit me hard. Just thought I’d share a cool find.
I haven’t played pokemon in forever, but I wanna get back into it. I read that pvp is awesome in this game, but it is like 3 years old.. soo idk if it’s active still.
Can’t afford Pokémon so I’m making my own design and card 🫡
I wanna start opening packs just for fun. Nothing serious. But the other day when I went to target to look for them there was a line of like 100 dudes in the store waiting for them. We're they special?
Can I just buy like regular ones to open
Sooo I have to say that the cloning is actually pretty good and the voice really does sound like me. I know this because despite being able to sing okay, when I hear my voice on recordings it makes me cringe, and the audio it’s generating is spot on enough that I’m getting the same reaction lmaooo.
However it does sound a bit too robotic. Not even robotic, like there is a lot of reverb or something. Nothing has to be perfect, because I’m just tooling around, but any tips on how to make it sound a bit clearer?
I bought a 280 dollar Shure microphone, which while it works fine, I don’t know if I love it enough to justify the price.
But I can’t find the box anywhere. I have all the items that came with the box, because I took them all out of the box. But no box. I’m guessing I must’ve thrown it away accidentally when cleaning or something 💔
I mean if I have to keep the microphone it will be fine, but preferably I’d like to return it
Before I decided to buy the MV7+, I was watching review videos and in one of them the reviewer briefly mentioned that it's worth buying the SM7dB pop filter and putting it on the MV7+. So when I bought the mic I also ordered the filter, just to try. I used to the mic with the standard filter for a few days, and yesterday the SM7dB filter arrived.
I don't know much about microphones and I don't know why it is the case, but my MV7+ sounds way better now. It went from sounding like a really nice microphone to a REALLY nice microphone. It's not just stronger elimination of the plosives, the clarity as a whole just feels boosted or something.
Just thought I'd share so anyone who isn't familiar with this little accessory can give it a try if they want. I really wasn't expecting much, but yeah, it's great and only costed 13 dollars on Shure’s official Amazon page.
I’m 24, and I have been singing lately just for hobby, but when I record myself, I absolutely hate it.
I’ve been told before that I can sing, and while I’m definitely not a pro, I can hear in my recordings that I do have the ability to. However my actual voice always sounds awful, like the pitch and tone. Idk how to describe it.
I have a very deep voice, and I’ve been told that since I was like 19. I think the combination of being tall and a former heavy smoker has left me sounding like that. And I really like how I sound when I talk actually.
However, in recordings I cringe so bad. I sound nasally, higher pitched, and not like me at all. Any advice?
