Also important to cut out caffeine if you are stopping nicotine. And understand that caffeine can be a trigger, nicotine accelerate caffeine metabolism (cuts the edge) which is why the coffee-drinking cigarette smoking trope exists. Caff and Nick are the best of friends.
Another thing to consider: nicotine accelerates caffeine metabolism. Therefore, if you are feeling irritable and have recently ingested caffeine (coffee, tea, energy drink, etc.) then you can expect a craving for the antidote.
Think of all those folks who used to hang out at coffee shops, smoking cigarets. Up on the cup of coffee, down on the smoke. Just riding the roller-coaster all day.
There is a huge overlap between people who would participate in Antifa and Anarchists, so you can imagine the problems getting a structured organization setup and keeping on task and purpose.
Oh, you could make Waffle Biscuits which hold onto the gravy and egg… Oh my.
Tonight; Scotch, it’s not bad but it’s not amazing. Want; Scotch, from my club which sends bottles from an individual barrel with a number less than 200… rarest and best of liquors I’ve personal encountered.
That’s what Mountain Dew was created for!
Visions and hallucination are not uncommon in meditation practice. In Zen training we’re reminded that the mind generates thoughts and visions like the eyes generate sight, the ears sound and so on… The instruction in that context is not to cling to the vision so that you can return to object-less meditation.
If you are interested in how some of the older meditation traditions view different meditative states, search for Jhana or Dhyana, sentient beings have been doing this for a long time and there is a lot of helpful guidance out there to support your practice.

Underrated comment.
Historically, reverse proxies were invented to manage a large number of slow connections to application servers which were relatively resource intensive. If your application requires N bytes of memory per transaction then the time between the request coming in and the response going out could pin those bytes in memory, as the web server can’t move ahead to the next request until the client confirms it got the whole page.
A reverse proxy can spool in requests from slow clients, when they are complete, then hand them off to the app servers on the backend, the response is generated and sent to the reverse proxy, which can slowly spool the response data out while the app server moves onto the next request.
ZFS will let you setup a RAID like set of small volumes which mirror one larger volume, it takes some setup, but that’s the most “elegant” solution in that once it’s configured you only need to touch it when you add a volume to the system and it’s just a mounted filesystem that you use.
Does not solve the off-site problem, one fire and it’s all gone.
For Science!

Not sure if I buy it but someone is cutting onions around here…
Sounds about right to me, and given the Jan 6th committee found Trump liable for the event, there is already a legal decision which elections officials can point to. Huh, looks like someone is trying to undermine the Jan 6th committee, wonder why they would do that?
gore content is illegal in places such as the US
LOL WUT? 1st amendment has entered the chat…
WUT? Apple is very focused on privacy and the idea that a user can’t mute or install Adblock is… weird. Safari has good ad-blocking options as well as built-in anti-tracking features to protect users, applications can’t usually prevent the system from muting content and Apple doesn’t really sell ads outside of the App Store.
If you want to worry about that stuff I’d suggest focusing on the Meta VR goggles or god forbid Google starts making goggles, both of those companies survive on ad revenue and have an incentive to enshitify their experience in ways that the Apple we know today would never do. Of course companies can change over time, but the ethic at Apple is to only make products they feel comfortable with their families using.
