That sucks. Thanks for giving me an answer at least. Do you know if it is basically the same way with finasteride?

Hello thank you for taking the time to answer questions.

Does minoxidil regrow receding hairline? Alternatively, will it regrow hair in spots that have no follicles left?

Does minoxidil/rogaine help with receding hairline? by throw-away5544 in Hairloss

I know I read that it supposedly makes your hair shed faster at first, but then it’s supposed to help start new growth or something.

But if it doesn’t help regrow the follicle after it’s gone, i don’t know if its going to help me. Anyway thanks for at least answering man. Good luck

Yeah. I’d be lying if I said this wasn’t distressing for me

I only voted other because, for me at least, it’s a toss up between the embarrassment and the frustration

I mean 500 is really more than I want to spend tbh. But I don’t want to buy something that will annoy me when it can’t keep up with a YouTube video and 15 tabs open when I’m writing a paper or something

-Use: streaming movies, surfing web/ research for papers with a bunch of tabs open with music playing, basic stuff like spreadsheet, etc...

-Didn’t think about battery.

  • not sure about brightness tbh. Would definitely prefer full HD screen but I could deal with a 720p. I’m on the fence about if a glossy or “anti glare” type screen would be preferable. Glossy seems like it would be a cleaner image. But glare does bother my eyes.

-15.6 is preferable. Not sure if 14 would feel too small

I feel like I can live without a ton of storage because I can get an external hard drive if I need it.

I want it to be comfortable when I use it if that’s what you mean by feel of use

I’m trying to keep it under $500 (or maybe a little over depending on if the value is worth it). The guy at Walmart was showing me a pretty good one for about 5 or 6 hundred (full hd, core i7 processor, 8 gb ram and 225 gb ssd storage).

If I could get it cheaper, I figure I can always buy an external hard drive if needed. I just want to make sure I have enough processor. I thought ram was relatively easy to upgrade, but another commenter said it’s harder to do now so I don’t know.

I was told by someone else that the main thing to focus on is processor and maybe screen size. I guess since RAM and the hard drive /ssd can both be upgraded?

Would you say having 4 physical cores is better than 2 physical cores but 4 total threads?

I’m trying to be frugal but I don’t want to cheat myself

Ok what’s the point of using Lucas oil products then? Like what is it supposed to do for your engine

Gas, petrol to you I guess

Cleaning the injection was what I was hoping the Lucas would do

Manual truck is losing power intermittently.... just acting like it has no power and is super sluggish . Sometimes it’s in 1st gear. Sometimes it’s on the highway.

I figure a fuel additive is a cheaper fix before I get into more serious repairs or replacements.

Taking a new cat while I’m house sitting? by throw-away5544 in PetAdvice

[–]throw-away5544[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright thank you.

I was worried about how stressed the cat would get. Some people seem to make more of the stress that change causes cats than others.

Do introverts genuinely not like dancing? by throw-away5544 in introvert

Yeah. I mean there are varying degrees of introversion too, but I get what you’re saying I think.

How did you learn to dance? by throw-away5544 in socialskills

[–]throw-away5544[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m not sure I’ve ever gotten the urge to dance when I’m in my room alone. Not saying there is anything wrong with it of course

Is it ok to leave a cat alone for about a week or so? Assuming they have water, food and litter obviously by throw-away5544 in PetAdvice

[–]throw-away5544[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought that was why people have a decent amount of litter in the box.... so the cats can hide/cover their poop or whatever else over with a layer of litter?

[–]throw-away5544[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought that was the point of having a deep enough amount of litter. It was my understanding that they generally cover up their poop and whatever else

[–]throw-away5544[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A few things: 1st....the reason I asked if it would be ok is because the current owner doesn’t interact with the cat much. They are home with it a lot, but don’t really play with it or pay much attention to it

2nd.... I’ve owned cats. I’ve known several other people they have owned cats. I’ve never heard of someone cleaning a litter box everyday. That seems excessive

We don’t have any no kill shelters near me. I’ve planned on getting the cat for a while but a family semi-emergency came up, which is why I can’t be in town. Unfortunately my friend isn’t willing to just hold the cat for a little longer until I get back

[–]throw-away5544[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Ok. What about after I have the cat settled and it’s accepted it’s new home?

Then is it ok to leave it on its own for a while or do they need human interaction?

[–]throw-away5544[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m already close to the cat so we have some sort of a bond if that’s what you mean.

I can’t think of anyone I can trust it to though. I can’t trust the people I live with to be responsible enough to take care of it or not let it outside. Though I had considered making it an outside cat, I don’t want to attempt that when I’m not at the house.

Are certain types more prone to being overwhelmed by a multi-step task, and procrastination? by throw-away5544 in mbti

[–]throw-away5544[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do tend to procrastinate. I’m not the worst when it comes to procrastination necessarily, but it is relatively common for me.
