Nice razor.
I'm curious to see some reviews on this unit. I don't need 10G in my house, but if the power consumption is reasonable it'd be fun to play with.
Edit: I see now it's 15-21 watts, similar to an RB5009 without any poe attachments.
Wow, good memory. Good advice from Cosmo, as per usual.

Wow, great shave. I had a rough day and almost skipped shaving which would have been the first time in 4+ years. Luckily I started to feel better after a little nap and a long shower, and this was my reward.

An "ironic" shave.
Lather - A soap organized by @enndeegee@sub.wetshaving.social and made by a soaper who was shunned by IRC. The soap was given to winners of the enndeegee "No Scrub" contest and also to organizers, judges, and other contributors to the Lather Games. Ironically absent is anyone from the IRC gang.
Aftershave - The favorite smell of u/cowzilla3, writer of many reviews. Reviewers have historically been chased off the sub by the IRC gang, including by myself back in my IRC days. People like velocipedic wrote lots of reviews, made a lot of revisions to the r/wetshaving wiki, etc., and were looked down upon by the IRC gang. Asking why there aren't more reviews with a history like that is pretty laughable.
Frag - I got Jitterbug as a gift from Ben after helping him with a spreadsheet. I remember multiple times where the IRC bullies ganged up on Ben for talking too much about his creative process. I guess they were annoyed by that? They've ganged up on most of our outstanding members. J33p, DJ, and whoever else dared to publicly speak the truth about the IRC bullies got banned from IRC. A blessing in disguise. IRC has been in a battle against r/wetshaving for 2+ years now.
I'm listening to the new album by u/VisceralWatch as I'm typing this up. The album was sponsored by a soaper who is still active in the sub, along with someone else from r/wetshaving. The album is a result of a great collaboration, and winners were recently announced as part of the 5 year celebration by u/Ironbeard_SYS at spearheadshaving.com.
Adults have the ability make their own decisions about which websites they use. Children only have the ability to complain.
If you think r/wetshaving is in a lul, dying, or threatened by some other website with 9 monthly users, etc... get your head out of your ass. We're not going to wait, so try and keep up.
Happy cake day!
Thanks for the suggestion. I ended up using a Raspberry Pi and an old computer monitor to run MagigMirror and MMM-ImmichSlideShow.
I tried ImmichFrame, too, and will revisit it in the future. For now MMM-ImmichSlideShow is working well.

Nice. I love the Flying Wing/Bullet Tip.
You mean like the one linked here? Or something with a specific URL like "killedbymozilla.com"?

This tub is on the kill block. I used it for AA and there are only a few shaves left in it. I need to make room for the tub of Sea Ice Lime that I got in the https://spearheadshaving.com giveaway.
What's notable to me about Port-Au-Prince is that I started the month thinking it was a meh scent, and ended the month loving it. I never got sick of it, and even a month removed from the AA shenanigans I still find it a wonderful smell. I can see myself replacing it with some other vetiver scent eventually -- maybe from Mike's Natural?
