How do you shave your balls? Every time I’ve tried with my trimmer it pinches and tears my sack and I’m too traumatized to try it again unless there’s a full proof bloodless method. Usually I just pluck as many as I can tolerate while I’m sitting around watching YouTube or somethin. But it’s such a pain (literally)....
I use a regular disposable fixed-head two-blade razer. I do it in the shower, and use the lather from my shampoo as shaving cream. You gotta use the off hand to stretch the skin flat so you dont have any ridges to catch, and shave in a direction that you never feel any snags starting (for me it’s usually going from the center outwards,and slightly upwards).
I have tried various trimmers and never found one that could get a close shave without getting cuts. I also tried an epilator (a device that rips out hair en masse. Bought one made for girls because some reviews said its gentler). That works well for everything but the sack. Tried a couple different razers, but found that ones with too many blades dont navigate the tight spaces well, and ones with flexible heads dont give enough control to respond to the curves and very directional hair.
No matter what, you can’t shave down there with the same “machete in the jungle” approach that can work for a beard. It’s a more precise process, and requires a bit of practice to get good at. That said, I’ve been happy with my routine now that I’ve got it figured out.
Yup, could do this. Have tried to do this. Slept like shit. Not worth it. I’ll spend the extra $50/mo on cranking the AC to wake up each day feeling decent.
It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you’d love alternatives for?
It took me more than a few minutes to realize that this is posted on Lemmy and not in one of the small subreddits I still follow.
As a loooong time battletech fan I am SO happy with the resurgence this franchise is seeing, and that PGI has actually listened to and involved fans in the creation and maintenance of their products.
For those who aren’t familiar, Mechwarrior Online, originally relased in 2013, was in end-of-life maintenance mode when PGI (the dev company) decided to effectively hand control of the game over to a small group of dedicated fans. That group, now called “The Cauldron” have brought in a slew of new content and balance updates, even new game modes.
This, coupled with an AMAZING game released in 2018by Harebrained Schemes, as well as some really bad moves by Games Workshop,has lead to major resurgence in the Battletech franchise.
For everyone else who remembers playing Mechwarrior 2 that came with a joystick back in 199whatever, I think this will be a great next chaoter in the story!

So my dad actually is an avid gamer, though he plays miltary startegy games (hex based type ones). So I legit get to live this meme every time I pay him a visit.
Being based on DnD, it takes a little getting used to, especially compared to most RPG combat that were built for PC rather than tabletop. That said, while the system doesn’t get any less ‘clunky’ it does feel more natural as you become more familiar with it.
I learned this the hard way when a tequila-soaked me decided to dive onto what looked like a very soft and fluffly snow-covered headge. I neglected to remember the inside was made of tree. I went on to attempt to remove the hedge with a saw, and had to have several friends hold me down to stop my act of revenge.
Okay let me start with two heavy hitters right from the get go and don’t forget these are only personal oppinions and I absolute understand if you like those games. Good for you!...
Russia wants NATO and other nations to feel that they could invade so the countries will start focusing on thier own defensive positions and stop giving aod to Ukraine. Expect to see a LOT of fake news and propaganda about this.
