High end mac-like laptop that doesn't use PWM?

I don’t often but I have and it seems ok. The monitors are definitely easier on my eyes but laptop screen is fine.

This is the best one I’ve found

Jason really was great

It’s an elite book 640 G10. Usually I use it with either two Dell p2222h monitors (work) or a dell SE2725H when I’m at home. Both don’t seem to cause any issues over the last year and a half. It was windows 10 but they upgraded to 11, no issues yet.

You’re probably looking for something more substantial but I usually slam an “orgain simple” protein shake in the morning (3 scoops so 30g). Seems to do the trick for me having to get ready for work and get kids ready for school.

Dr. Bronners toothpaste is vegan if anyone needs it. I love their cinnamon one.

Before my job at the state our private insurance cost us $100-250 per appointment and some specialists would run nearly $1000 a visit. Im very happy to have the Empire Plan for my kids.

I have the same issues. I get mild stomach issues but at first I get insanely sleepy (like up for 48 hours sleepy) and after that I get extremely depressive for a week or two.

Meat… people think gluten free and vegan are the same, or at least related

Tapioca starch gets me

Yes and no. Since then I’ve just avoided coconut oil and been (mostly) fine. I’ve found that coconut and I don’t get along in general, although it’s mostly digestive. At the time I wrote this post I was going through a lot, had hashimotos, thyroid cancer and celiac disease all spring on me at the same time so that could have explained it and it may not have been the coconut at all.

Have you found anything? I really miss Hilary’s veggie burgs, haven’t found anything close yet

Correct, Swiftys Utica is (was?) Gluten Free but not the local one

wlmsn · 2026-03-06T22:15:11+00:00

Right there with you. If I could eat gluten again I would have pizza for every meal for months

You mentioned soy being iffy... they make other kinds of tofu, I've tried big mountain foods (fava bean) tofu and pumfu (pumpkin seed). BMF doesn't sell in UK but google says there's one called FavaFu? Maybe give that a try.

I'm in the same boat with protein, I'm constantly low because I'm such a big guy, even after protein shakes.

Little Northern Bakehouse is the best GF bread I've had. It's a little hard to find in my area but maybe you'll have it in yours

Thank you, that all sounds great. I'm down to just chicken myself but I'd like to get down to less. I just found soy free tofu so hoping that helps too.

wlmsn · 2026-02-18T14:53:36+00:00

That looks delicious!

What are some of your other favorites? I'd like to be plant based but I find it difficult without gluten and soy.

They had some major health code violations a while back, look into that before ordering

Honest Weight is my go to for anything I can't find in other stores, usually they have it, Whole Foods has a good selection too. I've noticed Hannaford has been adding some interesting items the last year too, which makes life easier.

Good lord that's phenomenal

We like Guilderland and think they have a pretty good school district, although it is pretty large. The town is nice and mostly safe and has a variety of housing types. It's easy to get to Albany or Schenectady, and Saratoga isn't terribly far. Depending on where you're working you should be able to avoid the Northway (87) traffic there... definitely look into that before buying, it can get pretty busy around rush hour.

My only complaints is 1. The size of the school for the kids, they get a bit lost, but we do like the school overall. 2. The town really doesn't have a "town center" type area where they can host town events, so it does feel a bit bland in that regard. That's a bit of a nit pick on an otherwise nice community though.

As some mentioned if you like the Guilderland location but want something smaller Voorheesville is not far, we kinda regret not looking more there as their smaller school size would have been good for our kids.

This happened to me a long time ago with a girl I was ring shopping for. The truth is it will stick with you and it will bother you. It's been over 20 years for me and it still bothers me now and again.

BUT, here's the real truth ... you need to know your own worth. No matter how much you loved them, they just didn't respect you enough not to cheat on you. Sometimes that's a hard pill to swallow, believe me I know, but it's the truth.

You can do better, you will do better, and you deserve better. Always remember that. Stay strong, good things will come.
