What item did you "buy for life?" in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] Hazdaz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Make sure you get one of the professional ones. In fsct when i got the first one, i went to a beauty supply store that caters to hairstylists and barbers, as opposed to going to Walmart. Not sure if it is/was bullshit, but I had heard that Walmart gets lower quality units (not unlike the claims that the TVs sold on Black Friday are poorer quality compared to regular ones). Both of mine were made in US.

Just a heads up, you can buy new blades for fairly cheap. On my old unit I replaced the blades maybe 10 years into owning it. I think because of how the blades are shaped, sharpening them might not really be possible. But I could be wrong.

Would you quit your job if you got $24,000 a year? in c/antiwork@lemmy.world

Oh when are the illogical "lAnDlOrDs ArE eViL!" pitchforks going to come out??

Either way, $24k doesn't pay for shit. Taxes alone on a house could take a huge percentage of that $24k/year. Even the lamest of burger flipping jobs would double that money coming in and give you some more reasonable amount of funds to live off of. And if you are renting out a house for $2k/mo then you'd need insurance and cover maintenance. Everything costs money.

Gen Z can’t work alongside people with different views because they ‘haven’t got the skills to disagree’ says British TV boss (finance.yahoo.com)
 

Important quotes from the article:

Gen Z workers are already getting flak from businesses for lacking the basic skills needed to navigate the working world

youngest generation to enter the workforce doesn't have the skills to debate, disagree, or work alongside people with different opinions.

where did the downvote button go? (lemmy.world)
 

Just noticed yesterday that I can't downvote anything. Is that an issue with the app or Lemmy itself?

Any suggestions on reviving an old ASUS laptop that shows zero signs of life. (lemmy.world)
 

Plug it in, no lights. Hit the power button, nothing. Hold it down (saw some suggestion to hold it down for like 40 seconds), still nothing. I haven't tried opening it up yet. I don't even care if the battery is toast, I'm fine with it being tied to a wall adapter.

It's probably about 8 years old, so obviously it is slow by modern standards, but at the time it was fairly high-end, so it might serve my purposes as a secondary machine.
