I use a similar solution and I love it. It works on every app and requires no browser add-ons. I use a list from this ancient looking website: http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm I wish I could use this on my phone. EDI

Acknowledge that your mind has wondered (maybe say to yourself "thinking") and then don't make a big deal out of it and try to let it go. Try to only focus your awareness on the part of your body above your eyes. Something t

I would use scp with the -C option to compress the data for the first attempt to transfer the file. Any subsequent attempts to transfer the file should use rsync (this includes any updates to the file). Another option is to use a cloud dat
