Now that's sensible, approach it like any other drug out there and inform the people of the different percentages of thc, cbd (and whatever else that actively influences anything). At least then we would have an educated society, using substances as they please KNOWING what good (or bad) certain substances could do. But just putting out studies suggesting "brain damage" is just witch hunting. Terrorism kills 100 procent more brain cells than THC does ;)
He's been trolling his own twitter ever since last Friday again... Trying to find buyers for his books... Does he make sense sometimes? sure! Does he completely miss the ball on this one: well, you be the judge ;)

no no, the fine print also show the rats were "conditioned" with a little bit of magic powder...

Ah well... I have a -4 downvote just because I accidentally replied to the wrong thread one day.. big deal... won't sleep any less over it... guess that's part of the internets...

somehow I think a supercomputer would come in handy for that, and who knows, someone is already "on it"! definitely interesting way to "see" this sort of information
Re:For Sale: 29,656.51306529 Bitcoins on Friday June 13, 2014 @08:07AM (#7888348)
So... they are selling off "illegaly claimed" BTC now? Ah but of course, they have been doing the same thing with everything else for years... (supporting their own departments, making them able to buy tanks, cars, houses and plenty more).

Nothing new here, carry on, carry on!!!

Saw the documentary which was enlightening, whether or not Vermeer actually produced his works like this, doesn't do it less good. An artist is still an artist, no matter which tools he uses (of course, printing a photograph with a 3d-printer to get some relief i still a 3d-printed photograph, reproducing it by hand however is still a wholly diff thing, and if you can see how much time "Tim" spent on his Vermeer, you can only applaud the fact that he persisted in his try to copy one of the greater works in history).

Nice docu and a fun way to get acquainted with some artsy work. In the end, "photorealists" are just that, "photorealists" who like to get as close to the real deal as they possibly can, whatever means necessary. (what or what isn't "photograph" is not up to discussion here at all)

Couple of words:

This is only the tip of the ice-berg n if us, the people, keep acting like sheep and never question "authority (whatever that word means anyway), they will have their way with a very nice fascist-like nanny/police state...

Nothing to see here people, just abuse of power which we will call "normal procedure". Nothing to see here, carry on with your dreadful lives...

Re:We Need G.M.O. Wheat on Monday February 03, 2014 @08:55AM (#7170599)

Re:We Need G.M.O. Wheat on Monday February 03, 2014 @08:54AM (#7170587)
population control... = misunderstanding of basic science... GM food = NOT the GM Food the companies tell us about. We have been "modifying" genes for centuries thanks to simple, natural selection/crossing. Instead of putting more money into those methods (looking at crops region to region) the GM-maffia is only trying to patent a "universal/general" crop that should work in large areas.... anyhow, I am presenting all this very simplistically, but, I do not feel the need to insert genes from animals into plants n vice versa.

Is a study into GM necessary: yes, do we need to let monopolies decide policy for the people? no f'in way...

I second that!
Re:Your best passive income? (2014) on Tuesday January 21, 2014 @11:27AM (#7096241)
Lol, touché! and how about google? does google have permission to show gifs jpegs/whatever video/.. online when people do a search on any term in particular? Guess there are loopholes for big companies only ;)

You either have no money to pay for a lawyer and go bust or you buy all the lawyers so that no-one will be left to sue you... sort of kind of... doesn't make sense but you catch my drift right? :D

Re:Letters to my copyright infringers on Thursday December 05, 2013 @05:11AM (#6853572)
The funny thing is... people refer to google image search as a solution to track down infringers... yet... the fact that those pictures can be found on google image search seems to be overlooked... isn't google infringing by showing us any pictures at all? or are they allowed to make money off of it by showing it in their image search results... Just stating the obvious here... it's not infringement if you are... big brother?
Re:HTML: font color=”red” becomes green on Friday November 29, 2013 @09:50AM (#6819554)
Lol, truism, yet, for older frameworks, layers of code that are always "in front" of the css (for whatever damned reason) this might still become an issue in some form or another. That said, it should obviously show through when the "test-phase" is there to verify every line of code. nice find though, nice find.
Re:Dear Spike Lee on Thursday November 28, 2013 @08:36AM (#6814415)
I feel sick to my stomach as well, all about the artist's heart here, as well as about the respect this one has for Spike Lee (which I admire a lot myself). As an advocate for righteousness, this does come across rather harsh and intimidating so I hope SL reconsiders the contract with the people responsible for this mishap... All the best though, all the best.
Re:Spreeder: Learn to Speed Read. on Thursday October 24, 2013 @05:06AM (#6604113)
Excellent to quickly read some articles online, copy paste, set speed to what u like, n go!
All 420.

That said... I am against corporate take-over of the whole deal... trading one illegal kingpin by another legal one is just against democracy... All for local growers n blowers... whether medical or recreational. If you know who makes policy, you also know they can still take the power away from the people while it being legal for... "profit mongering companies"... there are plenty of sharks out there waiting to make a mcWdz out of it...

guess smart-phones aren't that smart after all...
