My GP recommended ozempic or mounjaro. She told me to do some research and come back to her, and if I wanted it she'd give me a script.

I had a question about one thing she mentioned. She said it gets rid of food noise. And that sounds great. To be able to stop my thoughts always circling food and snacks would be great. But I'm worried, because I don't want it to go away completely. I love to cook. I love the smell of a tomato sauce bubbling away on the hob, of a roast in the oven. I love to eat really good food. I don't want to lose any of that joy. Will I?

Sorry if that's a very stupid question.

Hello, I'm about to qualify as a lawyer and need a good suitable laptop for work stuff. Picture running between courtrooms, laptop in hand, needing to very quickly open and edit different files while a judge yells at you. A reliable machine with good RAM and battery life.

• Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: Purchasing in Ireland. Preference would be under €800, but could go up to approx €1100 if absolutely required
• Are you open to refurbs/used? Totally open to refurbs.
• How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? Battery life and RAM are the most important. I need to be able to open a bunch of files, then close the laptop and run to a different room, then open a bunch of different files all without the laptop freaking out. After that, something relatively durable and lasting. I don't want a touch screen, and I don't need any fancy AI features.
• How important is weight and thinness to you? Relatively. I'll be running around with it, and it needs to fit in a bag. But I don't want anything tiny.
• Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. I'm not fussy on this but approx 15 inches
• Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Not likely. I will need to be able to play videos and deal with zipped files, but nothing too dramatic.
• If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? NA
• Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? A USB port is a must. Multiple USB ports would be even better. I do not want a touch screen. I want a long ass battery life. A nice keyboard would also be good.
• Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I would prefer Windows over Mac
