@splitshockvirus@NEETzsche >I feel like nobody here actually has anything going on. Entirely possible, but I'd like to project a bit more optimistically. I suspect anyone looking at my recent posting history here would assume all I do is make obtuse anime references and engage in crass banter with a handful of people, but I like to think I have a little more going on than that that I just don't bring to this platform, and I think I just expect that it's a similar situation for anyone else I see here with less than 100 posts per day.
Some of the stuff feels so mundane to me that I just assume nobody else will care, others I get out of my system in a close-knit IRC group and leave at that. I've never really cared much for putting things up publicly, since I'm too lazy to do proper opsec with it and I don't want to spend too many of my waking hours thinking about that in particular.
As a random example of something that got a few lines on IRC recently, the other day I was contemplating my usual hair hack 'n' slash and thought about how if I had a clipper guard comb larger than 12mm I'd use it, since it always took a few weeks after that to get to a length I liked. I figured there might be some pitfalls beyond the obvious "it's nontrivial to keep hair straight enough for a consistent cut that way the longer it is", and I didn't think just linearly scaling up what I had on hand was an ideal starting point, so I guggled oversized clipper guards and saw that it was indeed not a novel concept and had some reference images to reason about the shape to aim for. Then I took some measurements of my guard combs, shat out a 40mm model in OpenSCAD, printed it, cursed printer for centering it on the print bed against my instructions and adding support and lifting a few minutes in, coerced it with a small strip on the opposite corner for round 2, noticed my arc profile was a bit too aggressive to print supportless in this orientation but the deformation wasn't too severe, attached it to my clippers, tolerances were a bit off so it got stuck (and is still stuck on there, I'll likely have to break it and print a new, looser V2 when I need to use another guard comb on it), but it did exactly the job I hoped it would and now I can trim my hair a bit more regularly to a length I like.
Then I looked into what a #2 cut even means, and it turned out that the numbers are eighths of an inch, making my 12mm guard a #4, and my new 40mm guard something like #12~#13. Another funny number is that average hair growth is close to 1/8inch per week, so a #2 cut would be similar to a #4 cut after a couple of weeks, and a #12 cut would be like my old #4 cut after around 8 weeks. Maybe I'll do actual #12, #13, #14 sizes to better approximate the results of the #2 top & #1 sides, #0 patterns after a few weeks.

@caekislove #12 is hard to deal with. It's a version of "no plan survives contact with the enemy". Some people then want to say "well, have no plans then!"
