Bruce Le-Fin: The Fighting Fish
2025.01.21 04:51 Character-Bike6191 Bruce Le-Fin: The Fighting Fish
 | Help! I adopted a samurai betta 6 months ago and named him Bruce Lee, but it seems like he's lost his chi. Tail rot got the best of him, and now he just sits at the bottom like he's meditating on life’s great mysteries. Any dojo tips to help him regain his fighting spirit? I’ve tried it all and the dragon has nothing left. submitted by Character-Bike6191 to bettafish [link] [comments] |
2025.01.21 04:51 Mother_Demand1833 The Vacuum Cleaner Store
I had been wanting to invest in a quality vacuum cleaner for at least the past two years.
Traditionally, I always bought cheap stick vacuums from big box retailers. They cleaned up dust and crumbs and hair, but I didn't have much to compare them to.
Over the weekend, I decided I wanted to try something different.
I live down the street from one of those strange little vacuum stores that you're likely to find in most towns. The kind with strange hours (written in marker,) very dim lighting, and a small window displaying three vacuum cleaners that look like they've been sitting there for 30 years.
I had never been in one of these places before, and there's a running joke that most of them must be fronts for illegal activity.
But I gave it a try. And wow, am I glad I did!
I stepped inside and felt like I had gone through a time warp. The little room was stacked with old vacuums and vacuum parts, all jumbled together. No two were alike. Everything was at least partway out of the box and each vacuum seemed to have its own character.
The owner was an older man wearing a sports coat with a bowtie and big, round glasses.
I quickly learned that he was VERY excited about vacuum cleaners!
I used to work on retail and I'm good at spotting when a salesperson is genuinely passionate about what they're selling, or just following a script. This guy was legitimate. He started telling me all about the history of vacuum cleaners and the business, how dofferent kinds of vacuums are assembled, where they are made, what year different models were produced...
I want to clarify that I didn't ask him about this. Nor was it relevant to making a sale. He just loved vacuum cleaners that much and was dying to tell people all about them.
His enthusiasm was contagious and I was hooked. Some people might have been annoyed, but I could have stood there for a full hour just listening to him talk about vacuums. He went on and on and on with wonder in his eyes.
Then he started asking about my particular needs and helping me find the perfect vacuum.
I got to test out a few models and compare them. Each time I tried a different vacuum, he would tell me all about the different brushes and attachments, the types of bags it used, where the bags were available for purchase, and the exact measurements of each and every crevice tool. All off the top of his head.
I came to feel like I was about to make the biggest purchase of my life.
I ended up picking out this obscure Italian-made vacuum cleaner from 2004 that was marketed primarily for use in hospitals. He gave me a discount because it had been sitting there "forever" despite being a "high-quality machine."
Usually I feel a sense of regret immediately after making a big purchase, but this was different. I carried that vacuum cleaner out to the car in my arms and it felt like I was bringing home the real-life R2-D2 to be my new droid friend and go on adventures with me.
Since then, I've been reading and re-reading the owner's manual, testing out the vacuum on different surfaces (the difference is unparalleled!) and occasionally just opening my closet door to stare and admire it.
I also cleaned the surface with a damp cloth and it now looks shiny, brand new, even futuristic.
I'm so satisfied with my purchase and so proud to own this vacuum cleaner!
I think the shop owner's enthusiasm was contagious. I absolutely love meeting people who are passionate about something and want to share their wealth of knowledge with anyone who will listen. This guy made me see vacuum cleaners in a whole new light and appreciate them in ways I never had previously.
Now I want to learn more about these beautiful machines. And I want to keep meeting new people who can share their own interests and continue to fill my life with excitement and wonder.

2025.01.21 04:51 swampwiz LA record snowfall was 16" in Shell Beach (St. Bernard Parish) in 1895
It seems a lot of journalists are saying that 5" would easily be the heaviest ever recorded in SoLa.

2025.01.21 04:51 IGoregrinder Noob question about Sync
Hello, Yesterday I finally change my old computer and get a new one. I have Obsidian + Sync on all my devices but IF I remember correctly I had to choose a main device when I activated Sync (for backup or something I guess?). This main device was my old computer. Of course I made a copy of my Vault. Now I installed Obsidian on the new computer and log in Sync and everything looks fine, all my notes and settings are here except my plugins (only use Local Backup and FileColor so not a big deal), should I change something in the settings to use my new computer as the main device? Thanks !

2025.01.21 04:51 Blazorna What would you do if everyone plays Simic Lands for casual?
Before anyone says a thing, this is ONLY a discussion about a scenario. This isn't cedh, but casual. Everyone is using the same s Ramp outline as it is the most effective and efficient. The LGS is focused on efficiency and fast games, like less than four turns. And let's say hypothetically there's also cards that allow potential FTK and Simic makes it possible, How would you react to this? Would you just leave to a different LGS? Or do you want to turn the LGS into cedh only since it's so close to that?
