Make sure you get one of the professional ones. In fsct when i got the first one, i went to a beauty supply store that caters to hairstylists and barbers, as opposed to going to Walmart. Not sure if it is/was bullshit, but I had heard that Walmart gets lower quality units (not unlike the claims that the TVs sold on Black Friday are poorer quality compared to regular ones). Both of mine were made in US.

Just a heads up, you can buy new blades for fairly cheap. On my old unit I replaced the blades maybe 10 years into owning it. I think because of how the blades are shaped, sharpening them might not really be possible. But I could be wrong.

Important quotes from the article:

Gen Z workers are already getting flak from businesses for lacking the basic skills needed to navigate the working world

youngest generation to enter the workforce doesn't have the skills to debate, disagree, or work alongside people with different opinions.

Using the Samsung News app on my tablet now and it's one endless clickbait article after another. Plus they inject ads onto the page too.

I know it might not be the apps fault if the source of the news is shit, but there doesn't seem to be a great way of culling all the terrible sources. I can remove them individually but wondering if there is a better option. Something that takes advantage of the larger screen that a tablet has over a phone would be especially welcome.

Just noticed yesterday that I can't downvote anything. Is that an issue with the app or Lemmy itself?

Plug it in, no lights. Hit the power button, nothing. Hold it down (saw some suggestion to hold it down for like 40 seconds), still nothing. I haven't tried opening it up yet. I don't even care if the battery is toast, I'm fine with it being tied to a wall adapter.

It's probably about 8 years old, so obviously it is slow by modern standards, but at the time it was fairly high-end, so it might serve my purposes as a secondary machine.
