  • You had noticeable side effects from Adderall, so the doctor is (probably) being cautious with the Vyvanse dosage to let you get used to it before upping it.

    Many years ago there was a period (a couple months) where I couldn’t get my Vyvanse prescription filled. I had been gradually upped to a pretty high dose at the time (like 60 or 70 mg). When I was finally able to resume taking it I had major side effects since I was coming in from nothing. For days I had a migraine and the felt like I was walking on jelly.



  • How about this gem from their localization of Vay:

    In the US version, Sirufa’s dialogue has been rewritten. Now, her wind powers are due to a bet she lost with an unexplained “Thaldar”, as a result of which she “received the curse of eternal seimic flatulence.” This is then used to create a mechanic whereby, if Sirufa’s teleportation is used without having all party members equipped with “Filtration Masks”, the unequipped members will be “overcome by the noxious fumes” and remove the rest of the party’s masks before dying, causing an instant game over.

    Text from TCRF.


  • I have a T480 that I bought a few years ago for around $250 (~€217). There are a number of possible configurations, but the one I bought was an i7 with 16 GB RAM, and a 256 GB SSD. I replaced the drive with a 1 TB SSD, so that was another $100 (~€87). Prices on this model have gone down since I bought mine as it is about 8 years old. I still highly recommend one since it can be upgraded to 64 GB RAM and has a removable battery, unlike many newer models. Just make sure it’s a T480 and not a T480s. The T480s doesn’t have upgradable RAM or a removable battery.



  • Let’s do some rough math for a moment. The article says there’s less than 600 students in the school, but let’s use that number anyways. About half that number will be girls, so let’s say 300. Now assuming there are similar numbers of students per grade, we’re going to divide this by 13 to get an average of 23 girls (rounded down) per grade. Another article (linked to in this one) says the perpetrators are both 16 years old. If we assume that they only targed girls that are close in age, so let’s say high school aged girls (9th-12th graders), we get 92 girls in that range. So to get to the actual point, based on previous estimates 59 out of 92 girls in those grades had explicit pictures generated. That’s approximately 64% of girls in the 14-18 age group at that school.

    So anyways, that’s my angry math. And the part that makes me angriest it that these two are getting off with a smack on the wrist.




  • I have a few, but the one that gets the most use by far is my Womanizer Premium air pulsator. The company’s name isn’t exactly the best, but the products are very effective. I believe this exact model is discontinued, but there is a newer version available. If the name is too uncomfortable there’s also the WeVibe Melt. It’s a different brand, but the same company. Just as a disclaimer, I don’t personally have a Melt, but it’s very highly regarded.

    Edit: By the way, the manufacturer is having a big sale right now.
