Ask Lemmy

My wedding ring, of course.

Cutlery from William Sonoma. Partner said she loved my kitchen for cooking because I had the best stuff. Now it’s our stuff.

My hammer and crescent wrenches seem pretty durable. I guess, this being Japan, the humidity might cause them issues at some point. My kitchen knives and cast iron dutch oven will probably also make it that long. Whatever accumulated heavy metals are in my body along with a rod and several screws holding some of said body together.

My Rotring 600 mechanical pencil, my Canon 2000 film camera, and my TI-36x Pro calculator.

• When it come to writing, I have never used a smoother implement, nor one that is constructed of such robust materials. For a long time I used a "nicer" mechanical pencil from Tūl, but does not compare to the Rotring.
• My Canon film camera is old and not a particularly fancy model, but it takes excellent photos and perfectly exemplifies the authentic emotion of film photos. I use it when I go on adventures with my friends, and the photos are always fun and genuine.
• I have tried a dozen different calculator apps, and none of them are as efficient to use as a physical calculator. It does what I need to without the feature cramming that calculator apps suffer from.

My Dutch oven. It cost a fair bit, but with a modicum of care it’ll last well my past lifetime.

My Benchmade pocket knife. Because even if I do damage it they will fix it lol.

I'm not huge on brand loyalty but they have always taken care of me and my buddies whenever anything goes wrong with one of their knives. I will always recommend them for anyone willing to spend a bit more on a very solid knife with a great warranty.

Edit. Spelling

My headphones: AKG Q701. I've been using them for well over a decade now and have repaired them a few times. They're easily repairable and nothing compares to the sound quality unless you shell out $500+.

I got a boker plus antigrav (zirconium knife, great box openers) for Christmas and I could never get one on my own dime. I plan on keeping it forever and never using disposable box openers ever again.

Pretty much all of my music stuff (instruments, amps, pedals). I could maybe see myself selling some, or trading or whatever. But at least the physical instruments should last a long forever....unless some catastrophic event damages them.

Honestly? The only thing is my Swiss army knife. I might need to restore some tools and not sure if they'd honour warranty on them, but it's the only durable thing I have faith in.

Also my wife's pussy! (I'm sorry, couldn't help myself)

My Seiko 5 mechanical wristwatch, my traditional Vietnamese kitchen knife, my cast iron skillet, and the parts I always migrate over, each time I replace my main bicycle (Deore XTR pedals, Brooks saddle, Tubus rack, SKS fenders, Busch&Müller lights)

So long as I can replace parts like battery and storage, my Steam Deck. That, and pretty much all the consoles I currently have.

Nothing... I like replacing things and I'm not attached to things at all.

If anything, I like the feeling of buying new things to replace old ones, just for some minor feeling of change.

Sadly nothing yet, maybe just a couple of T-shirts... Mainly because I had to move/relocate every 1-2 years for my entire adult life until now & had to sell/give/throw away anything I couldn't bring with me every time I move

My Brilliant Cut grinder

Inbefore:

Toaster

My coffee machine and associated presses grinders and the like. My cast iron pan, and my Dutch oven
