If everyone wears a burqa, how are you meant to tell one person apart from another

Ok ? Does this matter? It still seems like a good idea. How are you supposed to identify someone if they commit a crime? If it was a mask it would be illegal

Also forgot to mention I am looking for a math pen as gel pens often smudge but bics always run out of ink or break. Thanks

Why not use the penter energel pen instead?. I quite like the ink in the g2

Parker g2 - stick or twist (piefed.social)
 

Was wondering whether I should look for another body (maybe metal ) for Parker g2. I have the standard versions and very much like the ink, but I’m unsure whether the body is durable. Also I feel like I would be more inclined to buy refills for a pen if it had a nicer body.

So what are the best bodies and are they really worth it?

What’s the Facebook clone in the fediverse? (piefed.social)

BIFL Pen request part 2 (piefed.social)
 

Sorry for lack of detail in first post.

The pen I am looking for is in essence a more durable, refillable version of the uni ball jetstream 101.

I like the pen a lot, as it is also good for maths as well as writing , unlike a fountain pen. However I am annoyed that it is not refillable, and I really just want a pen for life to stop constantly having to buy a new one every 3-4months.

Why use piefed over lemmy? (piefed.social)
 

Hi I’m new here. Meant to sign up for lemmy but accidently signed up for piefed. Did I make the right decision or do I need to jump ship
