Ever since the gemstone shortage, I’ve been self-aware about the maintenance of my puppies. Currently thinking about one of the following options, nothing set in stone yet:

  • refabrication
  • reprogramming
  • retiring

Per title, what’s your favorite re?

    I have been getting good results with a combination of refabricatuon and reprogramming. I find that I can scrape off around 10% of the crystal and reuse it after some reprogramming to work with the smaller size. There is a definite hit to the performance, but at least I don’t have to retire them yet. I’m down to 13mm diameter, and fast approaching the worst performance I can get. I’ll try to extend it for a week or two, but I don’t think my lawndroid will last three more mows. Hope they resolve the gem shortage soon. Fuck Sbeve and fuck his predatory business practices.
