Then someone else forks it

Make it open source

Subpar for the price they are asking then?

I know at least one of the factorio devs released a few mods of things that didn’t really fit with being in the base game but are interesting mods, like MIRVs. But that isn’t even a secret, it’s published under the same name.

Poor amoeba are going to starve

The schadenfreude would be delicious.

But I didn’t agree to their user agreement

Carlin was telling a joke, not enacting government policy.

I still check if there have been any recent discharges before swimming and I live by the sea where there is a lot more water to dilute it. Must be a lot more concentrated in a river.

I have worked with people that could be replaced with a small bash script. It’s more a question of when and how many

Could just have more than 1 backup though, then it doesn’t really matter much if the storage is less reliable as its very unlikely for multiple to fail at the same time

So does all storage media. The difference is just how long it takes.

Aren’t SD cards higher data capacity than HDDs at this point? Sure maybe not per unit or cost but for the volume of space I am pretty sure HDDs lost a while ago.

Normal people don’t want a sports car

They did, but you only need that to play windows games. You can also use wine or play native Linux games.

Should have done a valve and allowed selling anywhere but require price parity. Now from their greed there will be financial incentive for people to use another platform.

I like them, I prefer sandbox games over linear ones. I think it’s the sandbox nature of the game that matters more than open world though.

Well I am almost.there, currently let it grow for a few weeks before trimming back to as close as the trimmer gets without the guard on.

Currently use very cheap clippers, a lot less than $50, IIRC it was like £7. They take AA batteries. Not sure how long they will last for but probably cheapest as far as £/shave out of the options listed as its cheap enough that it shouldn’t have to last too long to be better than all the other options so far.

Problem with the more expensive rechargeable ones is that the lithium batteries will eventually die and lithium batteries + charging circuitry adds a fair bit of cost to every device they go in compared to AA batteries that I can buy 1 charger for and use between multiple devices. Downside with the AA trimmer, the rest of it is cheap shit quality and there are no other choices available that I have been able to find. I would probably be fairly happy to buy a slightly better one that used AA batteries.

Looked up the corded ones, apparently they just run 230v directly, which sounds spicy next to water but oh well. Was expecting them to be like 5-12v and then an amusing option could be sticking some AAs together - getting one of those special electrical sockets put into the bathroom isn’t a cost I want to bother with.

What is the cheapest and lowest effort option if you don’t care if the shave is overly close or not. Like a mm isn’t going to bother me.
