    Well, as a pharmacist whose been stable on 50mg of vyvanse for more than 3 years, your wife and Doc are both incorrect…

    Both are stimulants, yes, but

    Vyvanse is an amphetamine and works to produce more neurotransmitters you don’t already have.

    Cocaine is a reuptake inhibitor… thus preventing the breakdown of neurotransmitters you do already have.

    While fundamentally they may look like they’re doing the same thing, they are in fact 2 totally different mechanisms. Furthermore, in neurotransmitter depletion the effects of cocaine will severely diminish, where as amphetamines will thrive.


  • I believe Jesus also said

    Matthew 7:5 Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

    So maybe we should focus on our own paths in life rather than someone else’s life decision that has 0 bearing on whether you or I go to heaven or hell?

    I mean why people are so obsessed with what people do in their own home, on their own dime, and their own time is beyond me.

    Christofacists just want to control others. They don’t care what Jesus said. They don’t want to FOLLOW Jesus, They want to BE Jesus and tell others how to live.

    Def not a math major (BS/PharmD), but your explanation was like seeing through a visual illusion for the first time! lol

    I was always taught PEMDAS growing up, and that the MD and the AS was read left to right in an equation like above. But stating the division as a fraction completely changes my mind now about how this calculation works. I think what would happen in a calculation I use every day if the former was used.

    Example: Cockcroft-Gault Equation (estimation of renal function)

    (140-age)(kg) / 72(SCr) vs (140-age) X kg ➗72 X SCr

    In the first eq (correct one) an 80yo patient who weighs 65kg and has an SCr ~ 1.5 = 36.11

    In the latter it = 81.25 (waaay too high for an 80yo lol)

    edit: calculation variable




  • So unless you live in an area with fiber, asymmetrical speeds are pretty typical… I’m not sure if it is because it’s all coax so there are infrastructure limitations? But it’s actually gotten faster because 6 months ago my upload was only 30 mbit/s.

    Once fiber is in my area I’ll switch to that, but symmetrical will add more cost…but of course it will lol



  • According to the CDC:

    more than 93.1% of abortions were performed at ≤13 weeks’ gestation; a smaller number of abortions (5.8%) were performed at 14–20 weeks’ gestation, and even fewer (0.9%) were performed at ≥21 weeks’ gestation.

    1. So, 93.1% aren’t even fetuses yet, they are zygotes (which is a clump of cells)

    2. the other 6.9% are fetuses not babies.

    • A baby is a non-clinical term for an “infant” (def: a very young child under the age of 1 years old) that has bodily autonomy separate from the mother.

    So, to recap, abortion is not killing a baby





  • Christian brings up some great points worthy of consideration; however, if your going to use traditional routing through their network (A/cname) your still doing the same thing. CF will still see your traffic.

    The second thing I should say is, I only use zero trust for websites I share with family. So, I have a Searxng and wef/voyager dockers running through zero trust.

    For admin, homeassistant/iot/ip cams, I use an always on IPSec vpn on my iPhone, iPad, and steam deck (take it to work and plug into 3rd monitor) … this is cool because I get 24/7 ad blocking no matter where I am because it routes all my traffic through my pihole at home. This is a great solution for a single person, but I do not want to manage vpn access for multiple ppl. So, I agree with christian in NOT putting admin stuff/sensitive info behind CF at all (zero trust OR tradition web routing) unless you fully trust them. Otherwise do a 24/7 vpn like I do.



    1. Parents are southern baptist and tithe 10% yearly

    2. Constantly complain about socialism, and taxes

    3. Go on mission trips to Haiti to help build homes

    4. Constantly complain about refugees and immigration

    5. Claims to have lgbt, black, etc minority friends

    6. Sees nothing wrong with current Supreme Court trend taking rights away from said minority groups…

    7/8. Think of any two things that are opposites between real life, what religion should be about, and politics… and it is someway twisted in a way you wouldn’t think would be possible.

    TLDR: there is no way of dealing with this cognitive dissonance. It is maddening. I’ve gotten to the point of trolling my fam with republican Jesus lol. It’s the only thing that makes me at least laugh about the insanity.







  • Currently my UPS is reporting 207 watts, that’s with a unraid server (3600 + 32GB ram + 2060 super for plex, and 6 drives), a mini pc for pf sense, a rpi 4 running pihole and vpn server, a single poe ap, a modem, and security cameras… it can spike to 250w with multiple encodes going on from family … but overall not bad… I did have a dedicated 20A switch installed for just my network closet as well
