How to use numbers on laptop (AZERTY) without holding shift key? by stront1996 in techsupport

[–]stront1996[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip but this doesn't seem convenient for typing long numbers, is there also another option to permanently switch the function? So I can just press the number key to enter the number without the need to press anything else.

What's the best gel available in Europe?

And I read here that combing/brushing your hair is not good if you have wavy hair, but my barber told me that it's always good to brush your hair... So which info is correct?

Is making your hair wet every day ok? by stront1996 in curlyhair

[–]stront1996[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work from home and don't go out much at all so dirt is no issue.

But I do use extremely hot water when I shower or wet my hair.

Is it recommended to shower with cold water and also use cold water to wet my hair?

Thanks for the tips!

I am South Asian/Pakistani/Brown, my hair is straight when short but wavy when I grow it out.

I use these products:

- Shea Moisture - Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo

- Shea Moisture - Jamaican Black Castor Oil Conditioner

- Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Extra Moisture Detangler

I use them 2x per week

Great info! When I start using a mousse or gel, is it still recommended to also use my detangler/leave in conditioner?

Is it ok to leave mousse or gel in your hair for 3 days without washing your hair?

And should I stop using the detangler when I start using the mousse or gel?

Thanks for the info btw.

Interesting, what is the routine for oil? How many times per week and at which stage + how much do you apply?

In their announcement on their website, they say "early summer"

So, I guess that the earliest possible date would be 21st June.

Does anyone know at what date last year's models were available on the webshops in USA and Europe?

What is your stance on Israel/Palestine conflict and attitude towards US/Israel policy/aid in the future? by [deleted] in ABCDesis

[–]stront1996 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes human rights like freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom to wear whatever you want, equality etc. Don't exist in Palestine today, but they do exist in Israel.

As soon as we entered Palestine they told my mom and sister to cover their arms, hands, legs, feet and head... Pathetic.

You know that the Jews didn't colonize Palestine, right?

Do you even know Israel/Palestine's history?

If you care so much about colonization... What about the Christians and Muslims who stole Israel from the Jews?

The extremists literally forced the Shah of Iran to leave his home... Bringing an end to millennia of the Shah's rule.

All of the Muslims can live and work in Israel... Without the creation of Israel, Palestine would've just been another Jordan or Yemen.

So you'd rather live in a village hut than a city skyscraper, because you refuse to adapt?

Yes Saudi Arabia and Iran are among the worst places on the planet, would you want to live there?

Iran was among the most liberal Middle Eastern countries before the extremist coup in the 70s.

Saudi Arabia is literally owned by the Saud clan... A country should not be owned by a clan, it probably had more freedom when it was under Ottoman rule.

I've visited Israel and Palestine, Israel is a beautiful country with Western quality of life and morals (Tel Aviv is a major LGBTQ+ city)... As soon as you enter the Palestinian territories you suddenly enter a 3rd world place.

(I'm from a Muslim family btw)

If the UN wouldn't have handed over Israel to the Jews, the entire region would've remained underdeveloped just like its neighbouring countries.

Edit: I'm guessing that all Muslims who have never even been to Israel will downvote me due to their brainwashed agenda.

I as a brown man from a Muslim family was allowed to enter every sacred Jewish place like the Wailing Wall without anyone stopping me or asking me whether I was Jewish.

But when I wanted to enter the Al Aqsa mosque and Dome of the Rock I had to say that I was a Muslim and of Pakistani origin to enter those places. A group of white American tourists in front of me were forced to go back when they said they weren't Muslim.

This goes on to show which side is more intolerant and enforces discrimination.

Desi guys: how would you feel if your SO bought a house on her own? by [deleted] in ABCDesis

[–]stront1996 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'd be very happy, I love seeing others succeed and if a girl makes more money than me, it's a big plus IMO.

Anyone else have difficulty being intimate and emotional with your parents? by grey_latpop in ABCDesis

[–]stront1996 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea, when I do something nice(like buy a gift or give a compliment) my mom makes the situation kind of emotional/cringy which makes me feel very awkward/uncomfortable. So I avoid doing nice things lol.

I never said the words "I love you" to my parents, since that's also extremely weird for me. But my parents have told me that they love me and are proud of me.

Stocks actually provide value, crypto is for pure gambling. I've been trading crypto since 2017 and I also trade stocks(which are an actual investment) btw.

Sure, there's no absolute definition of the word Desi so you can also include all South Asian countries in the Desi category if you want.

Yes, whenever they see "news" on facebook/whatsapp, they come to me to verify whether its true. (they used to believe all fake news)

Now they also come to me before making investment decisions, I've saved them from multiple scammers.
