People are different and people can have idiosyncratic reactions to some medicine. Also interactions might cause problems - phenibut shall not be mixed with alcohol, barbiturates or benzodiazepines, it can lead to all kinds of problems. I don't drink, maybe that's the reason the stuff works so well for me.
It is also not quite a sleeping aid, it relaxes, removes anxiety and makes sleep more effective. This is why I normally take it when I know that my sleep is going to be short - the next day I feel like I've slept an hour or so longer than I actually have. But if you only need help to fall asleep, then melatonin is your friend and phenibut is a waste of money.
Phenibut is one of the mildest and safest tranquiliizers out there and the withdrawal is only possible when abusing the stuff (like taking several grams a day for a month or so), but that will happen with any tranquilizer abuse. It creates no craving since it is not addictive, but it is chemically close to a neurotransmitter and if taken for too long, the body will stop producing its own, hence withdrawal.
Personally, I don't take it for more than two days in a row simply because there is no need, but I took 500 mg every evening for a week and it worked just as intended - I was in a better mood, lost the anxiety and slept well, but unlike other tranquilizers, without any cognitive problems whatsoever. No withdrawal effect afterwards. I speak Russian fluently so I read the information leaflet - the stuff is actually approved there - and that is how any medicine should be used - RTFM if in doubt (if you are curious, 250-500mg up to three times a day, for two to three weeks for psychical problems, 250-500mg three times a day, 750mg before sleep for the first few days and tapering down after for booze withdrawal, 250-500mg once as nausea prophylaxis).
As for the GHB, phenibut is like one tenth the strength.
Would have made no difference. Back then the Ukraine has essentially begged that Russia takes their nukes. They were very expensive to maintain and the country has been and still is piss poor. Read what happened to their only submarine, this will tell you a lot about how well their nukes would have worked, had they kept them.
Well, because even the Germans often enough mix up the two digit number endianness and write the numbers down in the wrong order. It is as non-intuitive as it gets and while I grew up with it, I still would rather do the French math.
Actually, the Russian number system is not really that different from the English one and is almost the same as in other Slavic languages. It is quite regular, about the only exceptions are the number 10 (but it is similar in English - ten, -teen, -ty), the number 40 (used to be a special number, similar to a dozen) and the number 90 (ok, that one is sort of funny). Still, it is not nearly as silly as the German numbering style, or yep, the French one (quatre vingt dix neuf).
If we are going to nitpick, it is actually the BVerfG, not the BVG, simply because there is also the Bundesverwaltungsgericht, that would have the same initials otherwise;-)
Heh, same here. I have blocked the Spiegel completely. They've actually sued together with Axel Springer. Suits them right if they are willingly cooperating with the fucking Bild.
One of the more famous crashes in this series was during a low pass at one of the big air shows in Europe, possibly the Paris airshow. The a/c went down in the trees and several on board died.
And this is exactly why I tell that you have no idea what you are talking about. It is possible that you fly a piddly single piston engine aircraft where everything is controlled by Bowden cables, but commercial passenger aviation is quite different. You have written "when the pilot pushed the throttles forward, the a/c control system refused to do as commanded", and this is why you have received an explanation about what FADEC does. And as for you deluding yourself being old and experienced, I grew up in the GDR.
The crash in Basel - Mulhouse was a result of the pilot flying at flight idle power way too low and way too slow. When TOGA power was applied it was too late for the engines to spool up - the airplane crashed just a few seconds later. The Airbus ignored the pilot's control inputs because they would have stalled the aircraft immediately, resulting in the aircraft flying directly into the trees instead of skimming the tree tops that cushioned the crash. Basically the envelope protection saved most of the passengers. Doing the same stunt in a 737 would have killed most of them. Oviously the pilot blamed the envelope protection instead of himself, but if the pilot doesn't know the difference between a 100ft and a 30ft altitude, his opinion on that matter can be disregarded. Here is what happens to a Boeing pilot on an aircraft without envelope protection:
No a/c can prevent crashes from stupidity or worse (look up the intentional crash of an Airbus into the mountains somewhere in Europe) or poor training. If you think an Airbus is foolproof, look up Air France Flight 447.
Have you problems with reading comprehension as well? I have clearny written that no protection is full proof. But most of the time it does its job really well.
Besides, Turkish Airlines Flight 1951, Tatarstan Airlines Flight 363, Aeroflot Flight 821 and I can go on and on. Bad pilots flying a stupid airplane crash at every opportunity. Bad pilots flying an intelligent aircraft crash only if the situation is really bad.
What does air conditioning do with the throttles? Seriously though, you have no idea what you are talking about. All modern engines have FADEC, hence it is the engines decide what to do, the airplane can only suggest. No jet engine spools up instantly, all of them need some time to go from the flight idle to the TOGA power.
Oh, and by the way, if a Boeing pilot does something really stupid, the airplane will crash. If an Airbus pilot does something really stupid, the airplane won't allow it most of the time, but no protection is absolutely fool proof.
The lifespan of aircraft is the same everywhere and the planes are usually retired when they stop being economical compared to newer aircraft, usually just before the next required overhaul. That makes on average about 25 years.

I don't use it all the time, just once every few months -
about as often as ibuprofen for a headache. No reason to take medicine if nothing hurts.

Phenibut is not nearly as addictive as you describe and it works far more often than once a month. The tolerance to it builds up very quickly, though.

Not quite that late. North Korea fell back in the early seventies or so.

Say that to all the "too big to fail" companies like banks and car makers.

Don't delude yourself, your penis is still tiny.
Yes, the difference is about the same as between killers and murderers.
Fuck you and your protection racket. All you do is destabilising countries, creating misery and causing refugees.

Note that there were no survivors.

You are a fucking Ukrainian and just because your country sucks, doesn't mean actual Europe does.

Here is another fun fact:
there are more home invasions in the USA in a year than in the UK in half a century. Despite the firearms.
Thanks for the warning - the Xonar line was the only reasonable alternative I had in mind.
9 years for a fatality on a US airline. Uncontained engine failures happen far more often than that.
Here's one that happened just 6 months ago.
Yep, probably the Soundblaster XFi. I am too cheap to replace it with something better, but too spoiled for the onboard sound.
An assault rifle is a select fire rifle chambered for an intermediate cartridge. That is one of the better definitions.
Okay, the gist of it is: let us take gun deaths, discard all the gun deaths and we are fine.
You really should go easy on the booze.
