Thanks for the comments. Only thing that kind of sucks about having long hair and a beard is the world is full of judgemental ###### that'll take that as a sign of anything from me being a lazy bum to being a druggie, and when it comes to getting a job, that can really suck. I've already had to turn down 2 jobs because they don't allow beards and nearly had to quit one for my long hair. It's frustrating, because a lot of places only allow hair above the shoulder line on males or so, but have no regulations for female hair length. I know this is a bit more extreme, but in regards to man workplaces not allowing beards, even neat and well kempt ones....how would women feel if they were told they had to shave their head to work where they wanted, otherwise they wouldn't be hired? Personally I'm suprised jobs are able to regulate something such as facial hair to that degree. I can understand it if I'm going to work at Best Buy and be a salesman representing their company not to have a big, bushy hippie beard, but I don't see why an evenly trimmed, neatly groome dbeard should be a problem. I simply don't ever want to shave in my life again, except on rare occaissons.

Don't worry about callin me good looking, I appreciate that from a guy, straight or gay, as much as I do from a girl.

Metro...I saw the picture of the guy from smashmouth and I was just gonna say, wow, you look like the guy from smashmouth. Then I read your post. Hahah.

Anyways, thanks again. It's nice to hear people tell me my long hair looked good (And these people not being 15 year old girls trying to impress me by dressing gothic and listening to metal bands they think i listen to) as opossed to what I normally heard. I don't recall a day going bye that I went to school without someone saying something negative about my long hair.

I hear ya. I want to grow a beard but sometimes the future employer would just take one look at me and say I couldn't get that job. And I kept my beard well-groomed. Also, I had long hair in the summer but since then I worked in one play for the University Theatre and had to cut it but that I did because I know long hair wouldn't have fit to my character's profile.

Aaanyways, here's the latest pic from me, we had a party last night and that's me with my friend. I'm quite drunk there already, as you can see. :p

Heh, nice picture.

Yeah, I'm the type to stand up for **** I feel needs to be stood up for, like I think it's ridiculous that shaving is even something schools and workplaces can enforce to the degree they do. Hell, I'm the reason we can have facial hair at my school now, so I know change is possible. There comes a time however, when I'll have to choose between working at some local computer repair shop or a career as a networking puppet, and the latter might require shaving. If I'm going to be supporting a family, which I do plan to do, then some beliefs will just need to be compromised I guess.

Dude, Raum...

Long hair is badass and it fits you well man. If I could grow long hair I would but when my hair gets a certain length, it starts to curl and look really bad. I don't have the stereotype that people with long hair are buttrockers and what not. In fact, I am a hardcore buttrocker and probably don't look like one. I rock out so hard and listen to tons of different metal, thrash, hardcore, etc...

Some people just look better certain ways, and long hair is your thing dude for sure. Rock on.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
    • I'm still on Windows 10 22H2 because I didn't want to deal with all the issues in Windows 11, so I waited almost a week before installing the latest Patch Tuesday update (KB5094127), I went ahead and did it, and it was a huge mistake—ever since then, my File Explorer has seen a performance drop of about 30% when transferring large files... Once again, Microsoft has outdone itself! This update cannot be uninstalled, either through the Control Panel (via Settings) or by accessing Advanced Startup Options. The only possible alternative would be to use system restore points, but I’d have to reinstall all app and driver updates (and there’s no guarantee it would work). Or there’s the “nuclear option” of a in-place repair without losing files or apps, but even then, all my customizations would be lost! Microsoft just can’t help but mess everything up! Way to go, Microsoft! But I still don’t want your c****y Windows 11!
