Adderall works on some kind of amphetamine. That‘s prescribed much more often in the states. In EU land I‘ve never seen the hard stuff.

Edit: Elvance apparently has Amphetamin in it as well and I‘ve seen it in the wild here too.

You’re all doing it wrong. 27“ 2k with 4:3 crop.

Working on my university degree. I failed my first one and now I got myself into a critical situation again. Started using Anki. I often put in the hard work of thoroughly understanding a subject but don’t profit off it because I don’t keep the understanding after that. I am working on improving that.


> Top tech reviewers e.g. MKBHD

„Top“ in the sense that a lot of people watch them. Please don’t take seriously what they say. Luise Rossman did an excellent video on marques apple propaganda.


you're in the minority, I consider myself well educated in tech and a critical person, and MKBHD videos align with my values.


What?


The upcoming rap festival video will be a banger for sure.


Andrew & co. just don't miss. From All Gas No Brakes till now as Channel 5 the videos are either great or perfect. They always provide such an amazing insight.


THIS is a great opening line. Had a good laugh :D


Thanks for your reply. Somewhat a different topic, but do you think it would be ok for me to ask him? He has a Chinese family Name and has heritage there.


Follow-up:

I did buy the laptop and I did ask him. And I feel kind of bad about it. I tried to communicate as good as I could in the situation about why I‘m asking but we had a bit of a language barrier. I think he got where I‘m coming from, but didn‘t really understand my worries.

He claimed that the laptop was bought ‚here‘ and never went to China. He then showed me a bunch of other things that were bought there and how this is not a problem. Well…

Nevertheless, I wanted a Thinkpad for a long time and think I got a good deal. For those interested: T470S (2017) i7 16RAM 500SSD 350€


Maybe you should state the reason why you have this doubt, what (increased) risks do you believe you might be facing?


To me it seems like a naturally arising question, but these days people aren't always rational so IDK.
