Safety razor with any blade like Wilkinson, Feather, Gillette, etc. I personally have not found a huge difference between them, but I also shave immediately after getting out of the shower without any shaving cream which some people might see as psychotic.
I went to a safety razor years ago after getting into it on a shaving subreddit and have never looked back. I bought a variety pack for like $20 CAD of razor blades 5+ years ago and I'm STILL going through them.
Good point! I wonder how hard it would be to get the same pressure as Earth and in the space station?
Strange. Thanks for the heads up. It looked to be working on my end using the Sync app, but I've heard Sync isn't getting any regular updates anymore. Either Sync broke something, or I did!
Love the idea, but (spoiler for the end of Portal 2) >!isn't that kind of what Chell did at the end of Portal 2 to defeat GlaDOS? The portal on the Moon causes the portal on Earth to suction everything out into space.!<
I agree. We're not the first ones to point it out, but theres a strong argument to be made for graphical style over graphical fidelity. Working to achieve a particular stylised choice tends to give a visual medium greater longevity.
There's a reason why people remember details about Jurassic Park over something like Avatar; or Star Fox over the latest Call of Duty.
Technology has made some things look better over the years, but the things that really get remembered visually are the style choices.
Just because one game takes up a quarter of your hard drive doesn't make it more impressive than a sub 1 GB game.

What is in the deer's eye in the last panel? A reflection? An alternative that never was?
Patient gamers unite! I wait until that game I want hits AT LEAST -75% off.
The only exception I've had for that rule for myself in recent memory is for Monsterhunter games.
You look hard enough (or maybe not very hard at all) and you can see which developers and companies can't do launch days very well, or release too early. Blizzard/Activision, CDProject Red, Ubisoft, and Microsoft come to mind.
It's the smaller to mid-size companies that have something to prove that release something more polished. Not always the case, but you've gotta stand out somehow.
I'm still rocking my Zotac 1060. I might as well ride that thing into the ground at this point.
Thinking of your Superman example and an ubermensch having to think about everything, I think several comics and media that have explored aspects of this idea.
I remember reading that there's a Spiderman story arc where it's revealed that Peter Parker is holding back his "true" strength for nearly the entire time he's been Spiderman. It's only been his true strength of character that has made sure that he "pulls his punches" far enough back so as to not kill or harm the people he's fighting or saving.
I also think about Robert Kirkman's Invincible comic/animated series that explores how powerful people decide, either intentionally or accidentally, the fates of those around them, often with dramatic and violent conclusions. Invincible is the story of Superman if Clark Kent wasn't raised by an American family in the mid-West and was instead raised for another more sinister reason.
I'm getting strong "blue steel" vibes.
It takes a lot of strength to change what was probably a core part of your identity - I respect your change.
