A friend of mine said "Why don't you get a tattoo? Live a little!"
Everybody and his uncle is getting those. It's almost peer pressure at this point.
I don't need artificial scars.
@thor Scars are the tattoos of the victorious.

I could make a lot of money with my skills if only I was an asshole.

As a tech guy, you kind of have two options. Sell your soul as a developer, working on some incredibly dull project, or become a manipulator of people. Neither option is very appealing. There is a third option, which is where I am now, where you're basically not making any money. The one where you do stuff you like, in a way that agrees with your ethics. This SHOULD be the thing that is profitable, but the world sucks.
@freemo It could be TRT.

Moisturizer is just a heroin addiction for your skin. Do people even realize that if you use it more than a few times it causes your skin to need it to even function and like cigarettes you need to use it just to get your skin like it used to be.
People who use it for years and then stop will literally have their skin peeling off and cracking.
@freemo It is advised that young men not stop moisturizing and it seems to be effective.
@skyblond Yes. The one good thing about the Samsung S series is the high quality cameras paired with an app that isn't full of contempt.
I think you also have a faster capture speed with your phone than many digital cameras. I would have loved to test the burst mode on a bullet in flight. It should work with subsonic rounds from 3m but that's not very safe to do.

@AmpBenzScientist I think samsung's expert raw app did a fairly decent job to capture raw. But the real cameras are still worth its price, in terms of pixel counts and the size of cmos, compare to a smart phone
@jellycrystals @freeschool @freemo It was a very thrilling experience to use for the first time. After a small pass on my face, I immediately went to my neck and shaved it.
I've never managed to cut myself with the razor but then again, it would require me to resharpen the edge. It's the steam engine of razors. With that said, it will last a lifetime.
People will often use their thumb on a knife edge to see if it is sharp. If they do it on a razor, that edge is ruined and will need resharpening. So three sharpening stones and a good strop are highly recommended to keep one good and sharp.
@freemo If you want to critique the cutthroat, the only issues are the maintenance and the worst tug of any razor.
Essentially the least of one's worry should be getting cut. It's not a quick shave. Then I use a safety razor, double edged, to get spots that I missed. To finish it off I like to use the classic Listerine as aftershave for a very historically accurate shave.
Also for people who complain about the cost of razor cartridges, just look at the cost of sharpening stones for a straight razor and a good strop. It can be much worse.

The synthesiser keyboard we're building will sound like this, among other things. Yes, this will be in the production model.
My friend discovered something odd when experimenting with AI. It's a brief looking into a particular error.
