[12:49:02] <cmn32480> how goes?
[12:49:13] <Bytram> mostly okay...
[12:49:39] <cmn32480> that's better than "pretty shitty"
[12:49:55] <Bytram> not sure, but I might have an infectin on the middle finger of my left hand -- dry air, skin split, and now finger is swollen
[12:50:12] <cmn32480> that happens from too much use
[12:50:23] <Bytram> ooIoo
[12:50:27] <Bytram> ;)
[12:50:31] <cmn32480> it is around the nail mostly?
[12:50:49] <Bytram> yes, but opposite side
[12:50:58] <cmn32480> ewww
[12:51:05] <cmn32480> painful? red?
[12:51:13] <Bytram> got a couple small, shallow, dark bumps that look like blood blisters
[12:51:22] <cmn32480> nice
[12:51:37] <Bytram> tried piercing one with a needle, but not enough of a bump to really get under it and do any good
[12:51:38] <cmn32480> pop 'em... squeeze out the pus
[12:51:48] <Bytram> tried it, no joy
[12:51:55] <cmn32480> best stuff I have found is O'Keefe's Working Hands
[12:52:03] <Bytram> what's that?
[12:52:25] <cmn32480> helps greatly with the dry skin
[12:52:29] * Bytram searches
[12:52:48] <cmn32480> you can get it most anywhere
[12:52:52] <cmn32480> Walgreens
[12:52:55] <cmn32480> RiteAid
[12:53:00] <cmn32480> walmart
[12:53:04] <Bytram> have both those asround here
[12:53:08] <Bytram> all 3
[12:53:40] <cmn32480> Lowes, Home Depot I think carry it too
[12:53:52] <cmn32480> https://www.bedbathandbeyond.com
[12:54:03] <Bytram> have you used it youself
[12:54:05] <Bytram> ?
[12:54:05] <cmn32480> apply a couple times per day
[12:54:11] <cmn32480> I kepe a jar on my desk
[12:54:43] <Bytram> I much more appreciate first-hand reports than people's "opinions" -- much appreciated!
[12:55:08] <cmn32480> OOOOO pun intended
[12:55:20] <Bytram> is it greasy at all?
[12:55:29] <cmn32480> basically, you apply a couple times per day, and after washing your hands
[12:55:31] <Bytram> actually, that was purely unintentional~
[12:56:29] <Bytram> is it greasy?
[12:56:33] <cmn32480> for about 2 minutes after application
[12:56:41] <cmn32480> it absorbs quickly
[12:56:50] <cmn32480> and a little goes a VERY long way
[12:57:11] <Bytram> I can deal with that -- I have a lot of fine-control things I need to do and greasy fingers are [pretty much] a no-go
[12:57:26] <cmn32480> plus the fingerprints on the watches
[12:57:40] <Bytram> sounds like really good stuff.. will have to get some
[12:57:40] <Bytram> yep, there's that
[12:57:57] <Bytram> and on the cuffs on which they are displayed, and all the keys, too
[12:58:34] <cmn32480> right
[12:58:50] <Bytram> I had no idea you had problems with your fingers splitting -- what are the chances that I'd put this out there and you'd have first-hand (PUN!) experience to help me?
[12:59:12] <cmn32480> I don't have the issues with the splitting
[12:59:17] <Bytram> oh?
[12:59:18] <cmn32480> but they get VERY dry
[12:59:26] <Bytram> I've had that problem, too
[12:59:27] <cmn32480> and have come close
[12:59:36] <cmn32480> the splitting is a result of the dry skin
[12:59:46] <cmn32480> loses the elasticity and can't keep the rest of you in
[12:59:47] <Bytram> my dad had problems with his fingers splittling, too
[12:59:57] <Bytram> had no idea how painful it could get
[13:00:01] <Bytram> nod nod
[13:00:32] <cmn32480> it is VERY painful;
[13:00:37] <Bytram> will stop & get some before work.
[13:00:41] <cmn32480> I let my fingers get that bad once and swore never again
[13:00:57] <Bytram> totally unrelated, but was wondering if you could try and reproduce somehting for me?
[13:01:04] <Bytram> so, you know what I mezn
[13:01:06] <cmn32480> I already have 3 kids

[13:06:12] <Bytram> oops - that is WAY off

[13:12:13] <cmn32480> bytram - it looks like the ignore threading isn't working properly... I'd toss it out to the devs and let them puzzle it over
[13:12:30] <Bytram> thanks for the confirmation!
[13:12:35] <cmn32480> also could be a byproduct of TMB's comment code rampage
[13:12:59] <cmn32480> so no tellign if it works the same way on Prod as dev
[13:13:16] <Bytram> that's what I was thinkinig... he's been trying hard just to get the base functionailty working -- probably hasn't been too concerned with the other layouts
