Barber schools always need people to practice on. $8 + tip.

Made that mistake once, never again

It really depends on what you get done. I could probably do my own with a set of sheers and an extra mirror to get the back :) .

A mouse on an Android phone? Does your phone not have a touch screen?

Why not? An external keyboard & mouse with the android phone as a display should be allowed

Most people don't have time/resources to test every possible interface for a free website.

This website is inane, juvenile and has no real use. And for all those reasons I love it. Kudos to HN for being a place where I can find things that just bring some silly fun to my life. I remember in the early days of the Interwebs, there was so many sites just like this one. You didn't have to go to FB, IG or some other content mill to find them. Plus, when you did find one, it had the same feeling of excitement as…

On the same line, perhaps: https://TomArayaScream.com/

(I forgot they have a domain that redirects)

This reminded me of the kind of creativity I used to find on site called stumbleupon. Wonder what happened to it?

Bought by ebay, floundered, then sold back to the original owner, then died and turned into something called "Mix" which looks like some kind of photo sharing knockoff.

Lol. Can someone explain the context here for those out of the loop?

Apparently the title is a meme taking from DragonBall Z https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/dont-you-lecture-me-with-your...

Thanks for the link & background, KYM is superb (and of course on !kym with DDG).

Off-topic: from "top entries this week" on KYM, I just learned that the Bodganov twins (of Bogdanov affair fame, reverse Sokal hoax), have died (within 6 days of each other). Discussion at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29794879

Even cheaper if you cut your own hair. I've already recouped the cost of equipment many times over. Works best when you're not going for some fancy look though and just want something clean and simple.

I give myself a buzzcut every two weeks. 21mm on top, 5mm on the sides and back, slanted cutter on 5 in the trasition zone. If it goes bad I can always do 5mm all over. Hardest is to catch the whispy fuckers around the bald spot. I also do my kids hair, though the girls keep theirs long so thats just a matter of brushing it real neat and make a straight edge. The boy is too small to take to a hairdresser anyway. I al…

The back? How do you do the back of your head? Any tips? Wife? I just got out of jail and I'm broke so I bought some uber cheap clippers and have been cutting my own for months now. This from a guy who wouldn't blink at spending $250 on a hair cut before he got locked up lol

Does not work well using a mouse on an Android phone. Choose your UI events wisely, guys!

Well that answers that question. I had someone with a broken touchscreen recently and I told them Android might accept a mouse shoved into the USB-C as it worked fine when I shoved an external USB mic in there. Guess I was right.

Taking your point though, I'm going to add this to my testing script for my web sites now.
