I laughed so hard at this and then realized this was probably the source of my SLI woes way back in the day. But for real, I recently replaced the thermal paste on four 10 year old servers and performance improved by 20%!! A full core of pe

You can say the exact same thing for Zoloft. If you took a single 100mg dose you will notice the effects. But the line that crosses therapeutic to recreational (yes SSRIs are abused recreationally but are very short lived) is somewhere be

To be fair, as the son of an immigrant, it has been difficult for family to come visit since about 2010. I understand it’s easy to blame this administration for a lot of things, but the immigration problem began a long time ago and each pr

Just want to point out you are taking the chemical at recreational doses and not therapeutic doses. This is why a professional administrating the drug is key. Look at it this way, Zoloft may give you a bad experience but not the same bad

You wouldn’t have your retirement 100% in equities though, you would be way more risk adverse. So in 2007-2009 you may have only took a 20% hit only to see that rebound by 120% within 2 years. In fact if you were paying attention in that t
