Oh hey, I used to take propranolol to help me sleep. It served me quite well, but it of course needs to be respected. Also, absolutely do not drink alcohol while under the effects, it's deeply unpleasant :P

And it was so promising.  :P

Anyways, I'm pretty sure Th4DwArfY1 was just co-opted by the Drug Companies to run an ad for them, so whatever.

I've had alcohol while using it - I had no issues. I asked my doc at the time and she said it was fine. Though, she also noted I was active and young.

There can be sone issues (both alcohol and propranolol slowing heart rate) if you already havr underlying heart problems.

Also, big pharma has zero hold on me. I live in the UK, where healthcare actually exists  :-\

What is it like to watch the TV without constant pharmaceutical ads?
"You doctor is an idiot.  Badger them to prescribe our drugs!" <-Like literally all the ads.
But you probably need those drugs!



Also the search has been broken for me as well, only get one page of stuff then nothing.

In the past couple of years, the pharmaceutical ads have been more targeted. While plenty come with a self-diagnosis of whatever ailment they allegedly fix, some are specific to particular ailments. For example, I hopefully don't need the heart meds, the cancer meds, or the AIDs meds.

Thankfully, we might be seeing an end to them come January.

Search engine favoritism combined with information campaigns set to "raise awareness" for particular conditions, that result in you finding information about the desired product when you start looking into the disease.

You see their name brand and product, they technically don't advertise the medication, everyone's a WinRAR.

Is that why the US government wants to extract me from my current location?

I assumed it was because of the free meds, not my being an archiving program.

But considering I do a history degree, it does make sense.

What does it mean when a user is now shown as a "guest" / can't click on their name and are not listed in the moderation log?

Their account got deleted, I think, but it's too much effort to delete every post they made.

What does this mean. Link supposedly goes to a forum game called Rock, Paper, Anything, mentioned here.
Link acted like that the day it was shared, which makes me think it wasn't deleted, but I can't find it on google either. LUrl doesn't seem to have sniped off something important AFAIK either.

Lots of similar games exist unimpeded.
