5 ply clears 3 ply any day of the week in every way, it's not even close
>>21614233For me it's stainless steel lined copper. The patrician choice.
>>216142336 blade razor clears single blade any day of the week in every way, it's not even close
Spend less money on meme cookware and more money on good ingredientsWith good ingredients you can cook a delicious meal over a trash fire. But cook shit even with a silver pan and it will remain shit.
>>21614236Pretty much this. I don't know how people can rationalize cooking on lower quality cookware>>21614265Por que no los dos
>>21614270>I don't know how people can rationalize cooking on lower quality cookwareI mean if you're poor or don't care it's pretty easy. However how to people justify buying bullshit as in op's pic when copper exists?
>>21614277Because forum lore gets regurgitated over and over again and becomes "the truth". Like japanese knives being fragile or you save money by DIYing everything
>>21614259This but unironically. The first time you try to travel with your briefcase full of shaving fetish gear you'll realize how silly it all is when you get a god tier shave on a disposable cartridge razor you bought at the hotel convenience store at 10000% markup
You don't need 5 ply cookware for your food, restaurants maybe.
>>21614330I can't use multi blade razors or my face will look like I have smallpox
3-ply is 95% of 5-ply, which is 98% of copper.Solid 3-ply from a good company is going to be just fine for the VAST majority of cooks.
>>21614330Skill issue. You kept purchasing gear because you don't know how to use a razor properly. The cheap disposable cartridge razor gave you a better cut because... skill issue.

>>21614233counterpoint: 3 dollar nonstick
>>21614364Have you tried using one since you "got into shaving" though? People shit on carts because that's what they learned on. DE and straights require some awareness of technique and that's how you end up with a good shave. If you applied half the autism you put into your DE (doubt you've tried straights) into a cartridge you'll see what I mean>>21614376You've got things all twisted up in your head because you're desperate to rationalize your hobby
>>21614383I'm 31 and I've been shaving every day since I was 15
>>21614388Are you ftm? Is that why in your head that's a flex?
>>21614394ok have a great day
>>21614236you mean graphite, right? copper is for poors now.
If stainless steel is so good, why do you need to put aluminium inside it?
>>21614259Try a nicer DE razor. Those vintage Gillettes are not great compared to machined razors.
>>21614429Graphite core is a meme.Solid copper (not multi-ply with a copper core) is more or less just as reactive as graphite core stuff, and will hold its value MUCH better because copper is much more sought after and tend to be passed down through the family.No one is passing down their graphite core pan and expecting their kid to pass it down to their kids in 20-30+ years like antique copper.It also doesn't help that graphite core is similarly priced to solid copper.The only reason to get graphite core is if you HATE the look of copper, or you're a weak-wristed bitch that just needs something lighter weight.
>>21614233Doesn't even make a noticeable difference whatsoever, this is literal funko pop buyfaggotry with pans
>>21614443Stainless is good for durability and ease of cleaning, but it sucks at thermal conductivity.Aluminium is great for thermal conductivity but isn't nearly as good for durability or cleanability. The simplest solution is to do an aliuminum base plate with a stainless steel cooking surface, but then you can delaminate your layers more easily, so most good cookware is 3-ply sandwich of stainless steel on the inside and outside, with aluminium in between (making up the bulk of the mass) to be used as the primary thermal mass in the pan, while the outside of the pan, and the inner cooking surface remain easy to clean and durable against metal kitchen utensiles, acidic foods you might cook in the pan.
>>21614461when I die all of my shit is going in a landfill. I buy what works for me best right now. I don't give a shit if it holds value.
>>21614429Everyone will appreciate copperware while people will laugh about your reddit sandwich pan looking like cheap ss from Ikea. Also why are 2 and 4 made from aluminium and not copper? Poorfag pan.
>>21614236>Stainless lined copperBloat. 3mm Stamped carbon steel. Anything else is worse and a meme.>>21614462It's all cope methods to make those thick ass stainless steel pans worth using. They have to shove a gorrillion layers of copper graphite and gorilla cum so the pan can have any semblance of reactivity and somewhat even heat.
>>21614383>(doubt you've tried straights)hahahhaha You really did buy all the tools and failed at shaving. nobody otherwise gives a shit about straight razors. incredible. >You've got things all twisted up in your head because you're desperate to rationalize your hobby>hobbyit's basic hygiene, anon. A single blade and soap is all you need. you never needed all those tools.SKILL ISSUE
>>21614394G O T T E M
>>21614383you may be right but fuck Gillette right up their culo
>>21614663More hobbybrained rationalization. It's ok to have hobbies just recognize it for what it is: a timesink to give your empty life meaning>>21614947I never got into the politics of it. Gillette makes DE blades too you know. Though my favorites were /pol/silver iridiums from russia. Dorcos are alright in a pinch
>>21614951Oh btw my main shaver right now is schick hydro 3. The 5 bladed ones irritate my skin but the 3 blades are just right for when you want to just get a fast perfect shave in the shower without looking in the mirror or prepping or any of that crapI still have a DE and about 50-ish assorted blades but I almost never touch the thing anymore. It was fun but the final nail in the coffin was when I got into fragrances and the existing lineup of truefitt and trumpeter art of shaving taylor of old bond street stinkers were fighting with it. The grandpa smells got old. Gave my straights to another sperg who wanted a timesink
>>21614951>>21614969Anon this is an insane amount of rationalization for not knowing how to shave. I switched to a safety razor this year, with a cheap synthetic brush that came in a pack with a lathering bowl, and a bar of dove soap I already had. That was like $15 total. The savings on not using canned shaving cream alone make the switch pay for itself, but at a cost-per-shave level blades are also cheaper than cartridges
>>21614233This shit must be like lures for catching fishermen because I don't think I've ever thought about the amount of layers in cookware and I don't think I ever will again. I think my iron pan is 1 ply
>>21614259>>21614951>>21614969>>21615075Are these retards talking about shaving because they are bots caught in a feedback loop or is it just two autists dead set on convincing themself that they made the right choice and the other guy is wrong.my favorite sandwhich is the mcchicken
>>21615109It's called a conversation bro
>>21614233>clearsFuck off back to faggit ranjeet
>>21615075>I switched to a safety razor this yearYou're barely even in the honeymoon stage. I was "into shaving" for a good 10 years before I snapped back to reality. Not knocking your hobby. I had a lot of fun with it, just try to remember it's just a hobby
>>21614233>clearsIt's not catching on, faggot. Stop trying.
>>21615109Dumb bot, you posted a picture of the mccrispy and not a mcchicken.I do prefer the mccrispy though. But i'd still choose the popeyes sandwich over it for taste since popeye's crisp is and flavor is pretty unique.
>>21615200Why do you assume every DE shaver is a hobbyist? I just shave and that's it. DEs are what I've found to cause the least irritation for me. And it's nice that I can get a closer shave meaning I don't have to shave as often. I still use a modern cartridge razor on my body though.
>>21615562Lmao gay
>>21615562As I said before, DE *seems* to give you a better shave because it's less forgiving. Cartridges, for the most part, can be just mindlessly scraped across your face while half asleep or drunk, and it doesn't really bite back, other than a mediocre shave. DE forces you to pay attention to what you're doing, on on penalty of pain, and as soon as you pay the least bit of attention to your shave technique you'll find good results were never that hard, you just never bothered to think about it. And this is a mindfuck for a lot of people.Hobbyists like (You) go through the short learning curve and are amazed that it's possible to actually get a good shave, and you attribute the improvement to the equipment, when in fact it was 90% technique (I will concede that the actual gear does make a slight and I mean SLIGHT difference). But since there are other compelling reasons to DE shave, like the cost of blades, or the fun factor from the perceived customizability (fancy brushes, slantbars, specific brands of blades, especially NOS discontinued blades or other obscure shit), people get really defensive about how it's the One Cool Trick Big Gillette Doesn't Want You To Know. The fact that you can't be bothered to DE your entire body should be your clue that DE isn't the miracle it's often pushed as being. But you probably have a whole narrative in your head about why it makes sense for some reason to cartridge your legs for example but not your face.Thank you for reading my blog, also food and cooking.
>>21615562Yeah I just use DE cause the blades last longer and they don't RAPE MY WALLET whenever I go to buy new ones. The shave is maybe slightly better than the 3 blade carts I was using before, but the difference is negligible.
>>21614265The aroma of the fire will be imparted onto the final dish.
>>21614461If your main argument for a tool over another one is that it "holds its value more" rather than the actual capabilities or advantages of the tool, you're missing the point.
>>21614233For me it's solid 316 stainless on a natural gas burner.
>>21617845They have almost identical capability which I said.>Solid copper (not multi-ply with a copper core) is more or less just as reactive as graphite core stuffThey only advantage graphite has is it is generally a bit lighter.So like I said, unless you're a weak-wristed bitch, there is basically no reason to get graphite core unless you have some autistic hatred for copper.
I had no idea that graphite core was a thing.
