  • I use Pantene shampoo and conditioner for curly hair, although I don't know what I'm going to switch to when I run out as apparently that product line has been discontinued.
  • 2 in 1 is usually pretty shitty for actually conditioning your hair.
  • What brand of deoderant do you all use, and why?
    Old Spice, advertising :D
    Ditto the advertising, and it's one of the few brands I can find that doesn't include antiperspirant.
    I am allergic to the New Old Spice, Old Old Spice was fine when it was around.
  • 2-in-1 is significantly worse for your hair than shampooing and conditioning separately. That said, I normally don't use conditioner at all.
    Unless you mean the "2-in-1" stuff that claims to work as both body wash and shampoo, in which case what are you doing.

  • Hey, I was using '3' in one shampditionerwash my last semester of college. No regrets.
  • Costco store brand shampoo is the shit, I don't use conditioner because my hair is short though.
  • What brand of deoderant do you all use, and why?
    I don't use deodorant but use Proraso Green for my aftershave.
    Polo Blue cologne if I'm going out on certain occasions.

    I've never heard of this 2 in 1 but use American Crew shampoo and conditioner.

  • I haven't used aftershave since I started using safety razors years ago.
    Old Spice because advertising and no antiperspirant.
    For shampoo and conditioner, I use the ones with the kangaroo on (don't actually know what it's called) because I like the smell and they've got a kangaroo on them.
  • What's the best way to get a subscription to the Saga comic books going forward?
  • Would I be correct in assuming that if the sun suddenly accelerated away from us at the speed of light, despite it not really being the biggest question raised by the situation, that about eight minutes later we'd stop feeling it's gravity?

    I believe so, since changes in a gravitational field propagate at the speed of light.

    I wonder if that would create a "gravity shockwave" near where the sun used to be where suddenly you start feeling all of the gravitational effects.


    I'm dumb: you would still feel the gravity from the sun because the waves still travel at the speed of light towards us no matter how fast the sun is going.

    What you would get is a "shockwave" along the leading edge of the sun where you suddenly go from the Sun's pre-movement gravity to "omg the sun is RIGHT HERE" gravity.

    Yeah I don't see what the problem is. I have as much hair on my body as I do my head it seems to it all does the job. Hair is hair and unless you have a scalp condition it all does the same stuff only cloaked in bollocks.

    It's awful for your hair is what the problem is.

    This would probably be relevant to your question.
  • I have noticed no problems with Tescos' own brand 2-1 shampoo and conditioner. Then again things might be different outside of the UK.

    What I'd like to say is "yes, but only because the universe as we know it would be destroyed and so you wouldn't feel anything at all." That's because any amount of mass traveling at the speed of light would in fact obtain infinite relativistic mass, and hence among other things an infinite gravitational field.

    That said, although I haven't studied relativity, I believe the proper answer to this question is that it's simply impossible (or at least current mathematical models just aren't capable of handling it).

    Also, the speed of light is a speed, not an acceleration.

    Do you use just straight witch hazel as an antiseptic then or some sort of balm? (I use a safety razor too).

  • Why didn't anyone tell me there was a Hackers 2?
  • THERE IS A HACKERS 2?
  • My mind is blown.
  • So Sensei brought us food and candy for class today. The melon candy and cola candy were good, but I've got one left. Is the Kasugai milkland candy any good?
  • All I know is Kasugai is the sister city of my city :P
  • Concentrated milk candy is great in general. That one specifically, I dunno.

    Am I retarded? Did the Humble Origin Bundle give you the Sims 3 soundtrack and not Sims 3? I can't find Sims 3 anywhere.

    Edit: Yep. I'm retarded.

    Can the codes for Steam and Origin both be used?

    Yep. They essentially gave you two copies.

    Honestly I'm just buying them as trade paper backs from Amazon. You do have to wait longer for them to be collated though. It is even cheaper for you guys in the US if you go to Instocktrades.

    However if you really want the single issues of the comics as they come out you can use DCBS. But the downside is you have to order in advance, as you can see in the link above they are taking preorders for issue 15.

    I highly recommend the In Stock Trades route I've used them before to get collections that were sold out in Australia and even with international shipping books would end up being cheaper.
  • Is there a generic TI-83->USB cable that isn't $20 like the TI one? I don't know what to look for on monoprice.
