shaving 

I've got really sensitive face skin so I've tried a lot of different razors through the years to try and find one that doesn't make me look like I've lost a fight with a cheesegrater

I've tried electric shavers, I've tried multi-bladed contraptions, I've tried highly adjustable stainless steel double edge razors

Y'know the one that's worked best so far?

A 99p travel razor made out of chinese pot metal with 10p astra blades

The trailer for The Man Who Killed Don Quixote has been released

I'm still not going to believe it's coming out until after I've finished watching it

@squirrel here's the most useful thing I've found so far on the "making your wm pretty" front

github.com/grassmunk/Platinum9

It's got a theme for xfce, icons, and gtk2

It won't cover everything because linux has 3 different ui toolkits which all have to be themed differently because of course it fucking does but it might be a good start?

I use the linux terminal for just about everything because I have no fucking idea how to use desktop environments

(you don't need to be queer or furry to join us!)

computerfairi.es/about/more

๐Ÿ˜ฎ here's another Casio PCB-replacement, this one for a calculator watch. The author reports โœจ5โœจ years of battery life. And it's got a heckin' ham radio built-in! goodwatch.org

These two modded watches, one with a reverse-polarization LCD hack, in front of a GPD Pocket! This is just pornographic ๐Ÿ˜ณ

TYVM @rrix for the link!

๐Ÿค” The circuitry inside a Casio watch isn't too complex, maybe I could measure it and manufacture a replacement with more features.

Oops somebody already did it! Way better than I would have!

The "Pluto" watch, which re-purposes the case and LCD from a Casio F91-W, includes a compass, infrared programming, RTTTL ringtone (musical) alarms, generates RFC 6238 one-time passwords, open source, and runs for a year on a standard watch battery! Wow!! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

#LookingForWork

Full-stack developer, been working with the web since the 90s. #HTML, #CSS, #Javascript, #Python, #PHP, enough #Ruby and #Node to get myself into trouble. #LAMP is fine but other stacks are fine too; I'm a quick learner.

Any position is okay; I've been out of the office for a while and I''d be happy doing just about anything as long as the income is stable.

Formal resume: github.com/joyeusenoelle/Resum

Please boost and share freely!

leave a lil syrup or snacks out for your local tiny squirrel robot to fuel those charming misadventures

i always imagine @squirrel_ebooks to be this tiny little squirrel robot that is always talking in non-sequiters and attempting to give you strange gifts. maybe a lil bandcamp link on your doorstep, or a funny picture on your pillow.
