@jcarls0@spaceghost Check out Copper Johns, Johnnie Ray, and Luxurious Bastard for balms like that. Also check out Dan C Bearded on YouTube. He does a lot of collaborations with companies but his entire back catalog is a wealth of knowledge on this kind of stuff.
@jcarls0@spaceghost My current routine is exfoliating with a comb and the applying a gentle daily beard wash in the shower. After I dry off I use beard oil and switch between using beard butter and beard balm. If you're looking for hold I'd suggest using a firm balm.
@spaceghost the way my jaw dropped. on one hand I feel bad for everyone, but on the other I think something like this was kind of inevitable in hindsight.
Removed all of the samsung spyware from my TV with Codex (Claude refused to root the tv lol)
It's insane how much bloat samsung packs into their TVs to track you and sell your data. Here's just some of what I turned off that made my tv 3x faster:
- screenshot your screen a few times a second to see what you're streaming and fingerprint you to sell your data
- reading your hdmi inputs to do the same thing while you have a game console plugged in
- Voice assistants: Bixby wake-word detectors listening and tracking what you say in your house
Before and after speed of my TV:
