My hair's curly and it's down past my nipples at this point. Bit of a pandemic project, this. I'd probably keel over on the spot if someone took clippers to my hair, ahaha.

I usually keep it tied back in a low ponytail and caught some forehead winking back at me between locks on webcam this morning. Just bedhead hair? Hairline has probably always been about this way, recession doesn't run in the family, but the only thing I can be sure about is that I'm uncomfortably close to the age of thirty and that's probably about when this sort of thing becomes a concern, right?

About a quarter (men? I'unno, didn't check that) are showing hair loss by 30 (hi), half by 50, some loss starting in the 30s is fairly normal. There's a faintly disgusting amount of research behind preventing/reducing that if you have the cash and care to look into it.

I started losing my hair when i was 25 and have a small bald spot on the top of my head because of that. Bad genes + stress is very bad

I'm in the same group Eric. It ducks.

B12 being finnicky.  getting some 502s

Same. Likely to do with new release on Steam.


As for male pattern baldness, my genetics are interesting. My grandfather was bald as a coot. Same with my great great grandfather (who wore a bowler hat to cover it, which I now possess). Some ancestor (possibly said great great grandfather, though not necessarily, as we've farmed the same land for four centuries) used bear fat to attempt to remedy the situation; we found his broken bear fat ceramics while digging for a new lane. Apparently bear fat was sold to cure baldness, likely because bears were hairy.

Nevertheless, my own father is 73. He has a full head of mostly-black hair. My mum is in her late 60s and still has hair comparable to my sister's.

It's too early to tell yet, but my own hair is fairly thick, to the point hairdressers always compliment it. I hope I take after my dad, not my grandfather 

[scriver]

The gene that causes or prevents (don't remember which, has to with what coupling of them you get) baldness is only inherited via the mother, so your father's hairness doesn't matter for you and your grandfather's baldness doesn't matter to your father, unfortunately.

If I remember correctly anyway.

I got 500 problems and a post ain't one.

Also I can't buy Dwarf Fortress until tonight and the free version isn't released yet.

It is 300 280₺ in Turkey...

ASCII never bothered me anyway. In fact, I've gotten so used to it, that I simply cannot play with tilesets anymore...

Oh yeah, every second click and internal server error pops up.

Guess not gonna do so much posting/browsing the forums in the next few days...

You too? What's going on?!

[Superdorf]

You too? What's going on?!

We have hundreds of guests trawling the forums right now, 'cos of the big release - I assume it's stressing the servers.

Don't have money to buy Steam right now, but I've been playing .47.05 with the new soundtrack running in the background and it's so lovely
This'll do for the time being

[pisskop]

whoa, hol' up!  New guitar riffs?

[KittyTac]

I'll buy it when they readd my beloved adv mode.

Anyways, I've been getting the 500 error but refreshing fixes it for a bit. Hope we see some new blood.

Yes, new music as well as some remixes of the original tunes. Very nice.
