True enough, but you can also get a prescription for this if you don't want to do OTC/BTC.

Again, I'm not advocating for the limits. I'm saying it would be very hard to exceed the limits as they exist now.

At a decongestant dosage this will last two people two months. And of course if the second person is 18+ they can also buy that. I'm not advocating that the limits are good, just that a single person is very unlikely to hit them for al

Highbrow isn't the way to look at it. I think what books do, primarily, is make the brain work in a different way, because you're constructing a visual and perhaps audio interpretation of text. Which causes you to do a lot of worl

Sleep is instantaneous but resume is more like 4-5 seconds (sometimes a bit more) than 1 second. Which is not a complaint, it's still incredible to stop and restart gaming like that but it's worth pointing out. I love this thing a

Nor can I, which is why I wrote "I think." And I think that because it passes the logic test that mystery box clicking does not.

"if we show less information maybe people will be curious and click (and get the same information)" isn't passing a logic smell test. I think the ulterior motive was to reduce clicking away.

I doubt you're clicking every blind link image. Who has that kind of time? Consider this on any other site. Consider HackerNews where there's no headline and just a random image: it makes no sense. I think you're just giving
