But it makes my hair look so sleek and shiny!
Exactly; conditioner is just

Or anti-dandruff?

Why not both?!

What about 2-in-1 shampoo?
It's shampoo, therefore hygiene; it just has the polish mixed it@RaceProUK said:

Surely shiny hair is not a luxury but a human right deserved by all.

We must use our Tiberium riches to divert resources into getting Kane hair!

Yeesh, really? I've never used anything else. They're so much better than side-loaders. Like, leaps and bounds, yo.

I'm a guy that uses hair spray. Does that count? I'm sure a lot of guys like to gel their hair too, and also use conditioner...I would hardly consider "hair products" to be a women-only deal.

I think you need to be more sensitive to the folicly challenged.

Why, are you afraid of goths?
When you say "men who use hair products and make-up", I think more of this:
Filed under: for the record, my hair is amazing with just shampoo and hairbrush, thank you very much

Also, status: if I find the idiot who decided that date/time format should be the property of a (homegrown cancer of a) grid, instead of a column, I'll kick his teeth through his ass.
Not even separate Date/DateTime format specifications. Nope. Either you tack on that hour/minute/second where it doesn't belong at all, or cut it off where it's necessary.

I get crazy split ends in my beard if I don't take care of it.

I really tried to think of one, but I can't find a downside about this scenario.
Are there any girls that you wouldn't want to see in short skirts?

Status: Now a few days into caffeine withdrawal from cutting back to one cup of coffee per day. Brain is unhappy and only semi-functional. But, the heart arrhythmia has settled down quite a bit and I'm sleeping quite a bit better.
Also, 229 unread posts. Ai'nt nobody got time for that!.php

What the fuck kind of washing machine do you have that folds your clothes?
He doesn't. It just happens that the end-state of the clothes after a chaotic tumble-dry was "folded and stacked". Just a slightly unlikely fluke.
-
Fun Fact: Top-loading washing machines are very uncommon in Germany.
My house came with a front-loader. It was great, because it really helped spin-dry the clothes. And then the springs that hold the fuckton-heavy drum sheared. Good thing it wasn't when it was at 500000000rpm or whatever it does. But fuck if that wasn't loud.
Spent a couple hundred dollars to have someone come in with a crew, lift the drum, and attach new springs. Those sheared also after a while. So instead I spent $200 and bought a fucking top loader.
As it turns out, every appliance is shit these days. They're made to barely make it out of warranty. 5-10 year lifetime. Hurray for the invisible hand of the market's middle finger.

Sure there are. I'm under no obligation to look at them though.

Shampoo is hygiene, conditioner is cosmetics
For anyone with dry skin (and scalp == skin), conditioner is hygiene, not cosmetic.
-
I'd be tempted to call that medical, tbh

Status: Home game server did its disk freakout thing again and corrupted the partition on its SSD, destroying our Minecraft server. 6 TB NAS is ordered and on the way so I can finally do real backups of things. Also, planning ahead to upgrade the server to a proper platform with ECC RAM. I don't know if I'm getting random bit-errors that are corrupting the filesystem, or if the cheap consumer-grade motherboard has a flaky SATA controller, but I think it's time to do something about it.
This completely invalidates my hypothesis that something crazy happened in the RAID controller last year, because this SSD was not RAID-ed with anything.

Ok, now I can think of one potential downside...

Now I can think of two!
Nope, still one. I'm @OffByOne, after all
I'm also going to turn off the GPS on my phone. Amazon seems to be tracking me...

Why can't you be off by one in the other direction?

WHY!
-
Because of a cache invalidation error.
Edit: removed @accalia from my post

The difference between false and "false" in the debugger.. I've being looking at it for twenty minutes...

Only one of those is false, the false false is in fact truthy, which isn't quite as good as really true, but we'll take it anyway.

I punish those who write shit like that.
rec = exec("select SomeBoolField from table") obj.customprop("SomeBoolField") = rec("SomeBoolField").ToString(); ... if (obj.customprop("SomeBoolField") == "true")) { }
fffffffffffffffff

Status FFS, Windows.
- I set my "Appearance and Performance" settings to show contents of windows while dragging
- Connect to an RDP (via Citrix or something), which has it's own Performance settings. Those settings turn off "show contents of windows while dragging" for that RDP
- Except those settings override my Windows settings
- After I close the RDP, I need to go back into Appearance and Performance and reset my settings
Seriously? Why the shit does an RDP session get to fuck up my Windows settings?

Maytag called--the dug up the old repairman from those commercials, and he said, "hey, you wanted cheap appliances, and wouldn't buy the ones that last longer, because they cost more."

I'm slightly paranoid that everyone thinks I was wearing the same pair of jeans all week now.
I'm pretty sure everyone knows I wear the same clothes. I'm not some [insert politically correct euphemism] that only wears clothes once and then never again?
@Lorne_Kates said:

The same reason it likes to switch to "Windows Basic Theme" for "performance problems"

They can't seem to find a profit-making strategy, but they aren't exactly losing market share either. As long as people are using the platform, it will remain viable. Even if someone has to swoop in and buy them out.
