   Possibly fall out from the MK Ultra program - take a zero tolerance stance on LSD to make it look like changes have been made.

   I thought the same, but I saw the size of the form for the field trip and the detail they were asking for (most liability issues to absolve the school of responsibilities) - though, I don't think it would bother me personally enough to

   Unfortunately changing my mindset has just been a slow process (and I still think I have a lot further to go!) no real technique - I just try to invert negative thoughts and be grateful for what I have. I do not always succeed. CBD oil I ju

   Yes, and I apologise if I veer off topic a bit, but I find all of these things below inter-related. I've found that creating more space in my brain (I am prone to suffering anxiety) removes the friction I have in starting tasks and inc

   I've spent a great deal of time and energy trying to set meaningful goals and progress towards things, then worry that I was progressing to the wrong thing and adjust goals etc. My current goal is simply to learn to be happy with what

   I know several people who would pay good money to have lengthy and repetitive forms (school permission slips for field trips) filled in 'automatically' and doing this manually should be a cinch! So I'm not sure I agree with y

   Yeah, I've always heard that Lenovo is generally the way to go, but my Yoga C940 really struggles with the USB-C/Thunderbolt Docks. I've kind of got it working now, but the screen will occasionally cut out and I often have to

   I should specify these are USB-C thunderbolt docks, attached to LG 4K Ultrafine monitors + USB Keyboard and mouse. The whole USB-C/Thunderbolt split still confuses me so apologies if I'm making terminology mistakes :)

   Do you know of any intel based machines that work well with thunderbolt docks and are worth considering?

    Depends a lot on the connection speed though - sometimes, I've found it's faster not to go down this route.

    I'm exactly the same. In my humble opinion McDonald's coffee offers the best price to cost ratio of any takeaway coffee (at least that I've found) It's far from the best coffee I've ever tasted, but I've yet to

    Agreed, for whatever reason I get bored to tears doing most bodyweight exercises. Strangely even adding something as simple as a resistance band to the exercise makes it more enjoyable. I wonder if there is any sort of reason for this pheno

    So many of these comments just feel like bikeshedding. By most arguments here basecamp is an awful name for a company and hey is a terrible name for an email application - it doesn't seem to be holding them back though. For those not f

    I was not just referring to China's acreage. China is also very big vertically - and this vertical building is not just limited to a handful of cities. Being originally from Scotland, almost every large country or city is mind-blowingl

    China is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to China. Butchering of Douglas Adams&#x27

    That entirely depended on your geographic location and socioeconomic status. While the same is /still/ true it is less so now.
