Microdosing uses regimes like 5ug every third day.

To put that in perspective, 100ug is your basic single dose of LSD. It's enough to get a basic recreational user high enough to see movement, bright colors, "funhouse" effects, achieve some self-realization and lowering of the ego, it's not enough to see people look monsters, but enough for faces to be weird.

It's 1:20th of an "normal" intoxicating dose, and well below the threshold dose of 10-20ug which is needed to even feel the effects.

At 5ug, personally, I sometimes feel the tiniest of a tension headache right above my brows, nothing else.

To compare this to alcohol, it's like someone who gets drunk on 4 beers having 2oz instead. While it certainly may affect him, it doesn't impair him.

Important distinction:

chrome://plugins/ is where the internal PDF viewer is enabled or disabled.
chrome://extensions/ is where you put uBlock, or your corporate overlords install WebSense.

Plugins are moving to chrome://settings/content

That's it. INTERNAL PLUGINS ARE GETTING MOVED to a new menu location.

The software is available and it does work.

In some environments, access to your servers might happen only from a jump box where everything is recorded.

This sucks when someone wants to fire you, and it's great when the people who implement it know humans make mistakes and want to be able to fix fuckups because we have visual records of changes.

Trust me. I have two strikes.

On strike 1, they captive portal, and you can press an "I'm sorry, I won't do it again" button and restart your router/computers.
On strike 2, they captive portal, and you have to call customer support and get a lecture, where they tell you about strike three.
On strike 3, it's a one year ban in service.
