I’m planning on buying a Phillips oneblade

@Runescape Drop Out you like electronics, why aren't you using an electric shaver ?

2019-11-23 18:29:16 UTC  

my remington is awesome, and no hassle as it's dry shaving

2019-11-23 18:33:02 UTC  

Don't get me wrong, electronics are cool. The more I learn about them, the more I realise how fucked I'd be if I depended on them and then the electronics industry collapsed (unlikely, but a lot of supply chains have to come together to produce the tech we use).
I also really like old practical tools. I use a fountain pen, mechanical watch and a safety razor. The sort of tools that fathers passed to their sons in the past.
I do have a hair clipper for cutting my hair though, as doing that with scissors would be a pain XD

2019-11-23 18:34:27 UTC  

If I can avoid putting electronics somewhere to improve reliability, I would. But they have their place.

2019-11-23 18:34:49 UTC  

Of course I never say this to the company I work for XD

2019-11-23 18:35:03 UTC  

Buy more goods good worker slaves šŸ˜‰

2019-11-23 18:35:18 UTC  

^ my thoughts exactly. I love electronics but my knowledge has shown me how foolish it is to depend on them

2019-11-23 18:35:48 UTC  

Not only that, how foolish it is to build a world around them

2019-11-23 18:36:10 UTC  

@Happy Humble Hermit will you make a video on the Youtube/Coppa 2020?

2019-11-23 18:36:57 UTC  

I'm not dependent on them, I'd just use them as long they are there,
and if they're not there, I'll switch to caveman mode, <:lolz:480186121897377792>
until I rediscover the ancient non electronic tools <:CRUSADEE:585703763126255641>

2019-11-23 18:37:27 UTC  

I'd rather work towards developing, ragged, reliable tech. But first I want to earn good money šŸ˜

2019-11-23 18:38:32 UTC  

Anyone up for tuxkart today?

2019-11-23 18:39:33 UTC  

A universal portable handset. One that is accessible and verifiable for security reasons. One that can be upgraded with non-verified, proprietary modules (LTE, 5G) but allows them minimum access to the entire system. And one that has a long operating life - decades.

2019-11-23 18:42:28 UTC  

looool, yeah, maybe in 50 years we'll have something like that šŸ˜›

2019-11-23 18:42:46 UTC  

Hehe, or in a couple of years šŸ˜

2019-11-23 18:42:47 UTC  

the problem are again the normies, they don't need that, so they wont pay for that

2019-11-23 18:43:04 UTC  

but actually government agencies would be interested in such stuff

2019-11-23 18:43:51 UTC  

That's why I'd rather design on open-hardware variant first, so that people could manufacture a device that meets the specification I set for the platform

2019-11-23 18:44:21 UTC  

At first you could make it from standard modules, then as demand rises, batch production

2019-11-23 18:45:36 UTC  

yeah, I hope wth risc v stuff, we sooner or later reach that stage

2019-11-23 18:45:49 UTC  

You make the main spec open and available, allowing firmware and software people to write code and verify, while leaving the implementation of the batch device closed, at least for a time

2019-11-23 18:46:13 UTC  

Let's hope so

2019-11-23 18:47:31 UTC  

That's why I really liked the idea of the MEGA65 device. Uses a modified 6502 processor for the main system, and powers on unsafe, proprietary modules only when needed

2019-11-23 18:50:00 UTC  

oh and btw, to that shaving topic
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TE4G26pXAY
I guess these safety razors are indeed the better choice,
bc
1. gilette sucks
2. these multiblade razors irritate the skin much more

2019-11-23 18:50:11 UTC  

I find this video pretty convincing

2019-11-23 18:51:13 UTC  

but I'll stay in the dry shave team, I got a lot less skin irritation from that, and it's good enough, if needed
usually I'm using my hair clipper anyway to get my 3 day beard <:lolz:480186121897377792>

2019-11-23 18:53:28 UTC  

Hehe

2019-11-23 18:54:28 UTC  

I did notice less irritation compared to the three blades, but after getting used to the safety razor (took a couple of weeks as I shave every three-four days)

2019-11-23 18:58:23 UTC  

yeah in 10 min or so

2019-11-23 18:58:36 UTC  

If anyone else is interested in supertuxkart, we can fit 4 more people (8 max)

2019-11-23 18:59:04 UTC  

Sounds like a plan @conker @Runescape Drop Out

2019-11-23 18:59:10 UTC  

Hey guys

2019-11-23 18:59:23 UTC  

@Runescape Drop Out Could we also play sometime next week as well?

2019-11-23 18:59:32 UTC  

I'm realizing more and more the average life is nothing but distractions.

2019-11-23 18:59:36 UTC  

yeah

2019-11-23 18:59:44 UTC  

oh it is @ResolvingParadox13 , really is
