I've known a couple of people who had really bad reactions to Wellbutrin after brand switches. Both of them found it necessary to get a medical necessity exemption so they could get branded prescriptions. There's more variability in a lot of these drugs across mfgr's than people are aware of and you should talk to your Dr about switching to another brand or manufacturer if you're having an adverse reaction.
V-trails are just super stiff compared to most VFFs. I owned one pair and found I didn't like them at all vs the others. The v-trek is great, and for casual indoor wear and errands I really dig their casual CVT hemp and leather shoes - they've got enough midsole to be really comfortable, I reach for those rather than slippers or sandals a lot these days.
Wool or coolmax socks depending on the season. I like Injinji midweight socks and liners a lot, both wool and coolmax, as well as Darn Tough, Patagonia and Smartwool. Sierra trading post often has wool socks on sale and you can't beat $9-12/pr for socks that'll last you 5+ years. If you're fine paying full price Darn Tough (or their wide fit brand Wide Open) have a lifetime replacement guarantee so the $20+ you're paying per pair is easier to swallow.
I can't stand cotton socks, they have horrible moisture management, so I'm all about wool or wicking synthetics.
Since you're not looking for individual toe socks this one's easy: Darn Tough has a secondary brand called Wide Open that's wider than their usual fit and has a more relaxed ankle fit, I'd check them out. All of their socks (both brands) have a true lifetime warranty so they'll replace them for you if you manage to wear holes in them somehow. I have something like a dozen pairs of regular DT socks that are like 8 or 9y old, they're worth the money.
Wide Open is a new thing, the old trick was to buy regular DT one size up (buy XL if you usually wear L) and wash/dry them once on warm so they shrink half a size, that gave me enough foot room that they didn't bind my feet. This should work with just about any wool sock FWIW but you're out of luck with synthetics, they won't shrink to fit.
Not as badly as you'd expect, modern compression is pretty quick using the lz*'s and you're only expending cycles when you're hitting swap
We joke but zram swap works wonders on low resource systems sometimes
Someone needs to turn that site into nothing but goatse stat
They're just pulling the ladder up behind themselves. Flagrantly breaking the law and then insisting it be enforced to prevent competition is like American business 101
Surely these strongly worded articles will stop him
