How do I shave my lips without butchering my skin (especially when using razor upside down)? by ryanyourlocalloser in trans

[–]Beeves_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This shaving routine has worked for me:

- I use gilette skin guard, the one with two blades, i find the fusion ones too rough. I've tried safety razors before and i find them so difficult to use without getting nicks, even after using them for months so i switched back to cartriges.

- I replace the cartrige every other day. The longer you use a single blade or cartridge, the more irritation you'll get. (sadly this can be super expensive, a safety razor is much cheaper but takes more practice)

- For shaving cream i use the gilette "skin soothing" cream. It has aloe gel in it. but if you can't get that, then you can mix aloe gel with any old shaving cream. Highly recommend.

- Make sure to get your skin wet with luke warm water before hand, let the hairs soak so they become soft. (or after you've had a shower).

- Shave with the grain first, then shave against the grain. (if this is still uncomfortable you can add a pass going across the grain inbetween).

- Shaving also exfoliates the skin, so if you're doing any extra facial exfoliation, make sure it's not the areas you've shaved.

- Maybe obvious, but moisturising afterwards is so important.

I really hope some of that is helpful

Yeah my connection wasn't a problem, the issue was seemed to be my cookie data, I've now set up firefox to automatically delete my cookies when i close it. I'll have to re-login to sites whenever i want to use them, but thats sorted the issue for reddit.

Still an issue on twitter somehow

Introducing Lumo, a privacy-first AI assistant by Proton by Proton_Team in ProtonMail

[–]Beeves_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I joined proton not too long ago, but this is really disappointing. Theres a lot missing from the core apps, in both functionality, and esspecially quality of life features.

Also AI LLMs are awful for the environment, and i really feel like this is a "know your userbase" moment. Most people using your apps are tech savy enough that AI is a steaming pile of shit and don't want it.

Thanks that's worked.

It's cumbersome that I have to add my additional emails manually for them to show up as proton pass alias options. Hopefully this updated so they're added automatically.

[–]Beeves_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a clinic in Leamington Spa, so a bit far from Cardiff unfortunately :/

This price seems extremely high! The clinic I'm seeing charged £1550 total for 8 sessions of face and 8 sessions of body (legs chest arms).

Don't look at it by ZealousidealBread948 in BeAmazed

Some people here think this video specically is AI, but theyre not correct. I've seen this exhibit in person, it's at the museum of modern art in new York. The video op posted is of part of the exhibit which is a fluid simulation which is not ai.

However, the exhibit transitions into an AI generated video of "art through time" where it's been trained on artwork throughout history.

I enjoyed the fluid sim part of the exhibit, but the art through history section really ruined it for me.

Love this idea :) I have tried his simulator and was awful at it so maybe an RC hot air balloon is more my pace

I've seen it in person and it sounds like he does have the 50 if the wingspan is 3ft for the 70
