I wrote almost my entire mechanical engineering degree (All ten years of it!) with my 600.

Wow impressive, that's what I'm aiming for, I'm a computer engineering student, and recently a mathematics student, I really like writing math with the rotring.

Rotrings breaking when you drop them is really common which I wish it didn't, they're heavy and that makes the tip really fragile, I managed to repair a blended tip on my other rotring sometime ago. The picture of your rotring is really beautiful, I think it resembles well the phrase "To be loved is to be changed", you used it over a decade! you are right by feeling proud. I hope you can repair it though, I think jetpens sells replacements for the tip, and caps for protecting it as well while you are not using it. I haven't been able to purchase neither of those because the shipping to my location is expensive so I can't tell from my experience.

Always FLAC, I have 2 DAPs, Sony walkman and Hiby, Hiby is better, I rip my CDs and put the FLAC files in my DAPs, I also use streaming through qobuz when I'm in my laptop.

The fediverse is the coolest thing that could happened, freedom is what all people should seek for, creating their own spaces and not supporting corporations that only want to make money out of people's lives, data, attention, mental health, etc ...

It's better to support the instance you are in with donations for sure.

Oh I see, definitely a very efficient approach with the 0.3mm lead, the Graph Gear 1000 it's one of my favorites and pocket safe 😅, the clip is very functional, you can attach it to your pocket very easily, and surely will last longer with that plastic part replaced.

I haven't use Pentel Ain Stein lead, it's very hard to find high quality lead where I live haha, would you recommend it?.

My pencil use is for studying math, I'm about to start computer engineering so I'm studying a lot harder these days, using these pencils give me motivation and comfort definitely makes the experience enjoyable! haha.

Which lead grade do you prefer?

Great!, how's your experience with 0.3mm?, do you do math too?.

I also have an 800, it's a great pencil.

I can't login from my main browser even if I clear the cache and cookies, if I use other browser it works

Edit: I fixed it just by changing my browser language to English and restarting it, hope this is useful for someone.

Also, thanks to Ruud and team for the hard work, everything seems to work really well and fast.
