There have been attempts to make guns smarter. It seems they have been stymied by legislators that tried to make them mandatory before they even got on the market. Then the NRA got busy.

How To Control Guns

How To Control Guns
To effect gun control leaders already controlling guns simply need to set an example.
Simply replace dumb offensive weapons with intelligent defensive ones.
Attackers can be disabled with sound, electrical impulse (a laser to the eyeball goes a long way), gas, anything but hot lead is relative progress.
A huge industry is waiting once this direction is set and it’s a rare example where a leader can set something so important in motion. A police force equipped with such weapons would not only save lives it would restore confidence, replacing fear with respect.
Like any old technology guns will inevitably become obsolete, outmaneuvered by weapons that save lives. Even in the worst case the result is a technological arms race, with one side committed to protection - an outcome far better than shoot outs and more deaths every day, most often at the hands of those intending to uphold a form of peace.

Guns are not the problem, they never have been. Why not start laying the blame where it belongs, with the people using a gun to kill and injure other people. A gun doesn’t kill or injure anybody unless a human being is pulling the trigger. Of course, the left wants you to believe everything would be flowers and sunshine if we only got rid of the mean, evil guns. You’re right about one thing, control. People are a lot easier to control if they can’t defend themselves. Of course that kind of logic is taboo for the left. Fear mongering and race baiting are the left’s weapons of choice. The left are the biggest racists on the planet. People forget that if not for the right, the civil rights act never would have made it to Johnson’s desk to sign into law. Who was opposed to it, most of the Democrats. There were active members of the KKK in congress and they were Democrats. Am l saying there are no racists on the right. Of course l am not, but the left would have you believe their shit doesn’t stink. It’s just sad that such a large group of people are fooled by their bullshit.
that was quite a good breakdown of their deep rooted bullshit lanky. hear hear
Humans aren't equipped physically or emotionally to comprehend the speed at which a gun can take a life and devastate the lives of *all* those involved.
It's not about left or right. It isn't about racist or not racist. It's about the value of human life and the callous destruction of it.

Totally, if you want gun control invent it.
Yes but some tech, its lasted for centuries you know and thats with lots of R&D money.
…
Normally, l would respond to your pseudo, new age crap with logic and facts, but there's no point in wasting my time. I'm sure it would send you running to your safe space. Do everybody a favor and stay there. I'll hang on to my arsenal and sleep soundly knowing whoever makes the mistake of confronting me won't be around to do it to someone else.
Dayam, why don't we think past guns, +!
Because it's the only reason we still have a democracy. The country's fore fathers knew this. That's why they put it in the constitution. Fuck the living document bullshit. If you think things would be so great without guns, take a look at what's happened in the past. Stalin killed more of his own people than were killed during the Second World War. The only reason he was able to it was by disarming the population first. Same story with China and Cambodia. Chairman Mao loved committing genocide, to the tune of 40 million. Pol Pot did away with 2 million. What is the common denominator? One and all disarmed. If you think things would be so great if we think past guns, instead of looking at what happened when the people were disarmed. You need to look backwards, or better yet, go talk to some of those people. Oh wait, you can't. Dead men, women and children tell no tales.
A few bad actors don't prove your point. Look at Europe, the home of democracy. We don't have guns, our democracy is less under threat than in the states, we don't live in fear in our homes, we rarely have police shootings and we don't have countless gun crimes day in day out.
If there were no guns, how would the history of China, Cambodia, Russia, the US and countless others be different?
Non violence is the future.

Yes, defense against government was the reason and made plenty of sense when the tech was there in the 18th century. But do you think an armed citizenry has even a tiny chance against the American military now? If so let me know who you buy from here cause I want some of that shit :)
It’s expensive. $500 for a grenade. Things like stingers are in the hundreds of thousands dollars range. It’s possible to get anything you want, even tactical nukes are on the table as well. I thought it was bullshit till l saw one. That’s right boys and girls, there are rogue nukes on American soil. You’re talking 10’s of millions of dollars for one of them After seeing it l thought someone would kill me for that very reason. I try to avoid thinking about it otherwise l’ll go off the deep end.
They said the same thing about North Vietnam. Look at how that turned out. The same thing is happening right now in Afghanistan. If you’re fighting for something you believe in, anything is possible. You talked about the revolutionary war. It was the same situation. Our fore fathers believed their cause was just so they took up arms and went to war against the most powerful nation in the world at that time. We didn’t even have a standing professional army, yet we won our freedom when nobody would have thought we had any chance of defeating our foes. You also have to take into account if the army would go to war against the people who they swore to protect. If the order is given, l really doubt they would kill their fellow Americans.
Where is that the money maid by the Police, lawyers, Medical industries, air ambulance is what $4K a trip?
Why don’t you take another English grammar course. My 4 year old niece speaks and writes english better than yourself.
No If Everybody had to ware a gun and soon the dumbest and t, most unrespectful humans will not pass there unwanted gene's on as many as they now do
I am wrong. You’re the end result of inbreeding, that’s the only way to explain why you’re this stupid.
You know you are right the only catch is that the dumbest are little children
I think this would work - and it makes money - so why hasn't this happened?
I was cruel and unusually lasered and my bush still aches.
Is it paranoid if I think my remote control was hacked and they're lazering me right now?

leave the exploding phallus at home boys there is a better way
Would cost to much to go nowhere + the size of the bottom would be colossal in size so it would require a vast amount of resources which humanity does not have. SpaceX is going in the right direction.
I'm so up for this. Always liked the idea of space travel but was put off by fear of the rockets bursting into flames. Getting an elevator up to a space station seems much more civilized. Hopefully there will be synth music and nice views on the way up.

Good call. Underrated movie.One that deserves another watch .
How about "A Clockwork Orange." Saw it for the first time at my frat house in the early 80's. It's time for bit of the ole in out in out. Love it.
I've been meaning to watch that after a few spliff for a while now, Yellow Submarine definitely pickles your head too.
There's always Reefer Madness. It's pretty damn funny, especially since it was released in 1936. Right up there with masturbation causing blindness and hairy palms. If that was true l would be wearing dark glasses, holding a tin cup begging for enough money to buy a new razor.
I'd like to add The Greatest Showman fucking amazing when you're stoned.

Hi, Use privnote.com it does it for you
It's not the most intuitive thing in the world and I think that's case the key analogy throws people. I think its more like a translator, your recipient's public key lets you send him messages in his own secret language.
Thank you, I understand it's purpose, but that's about it. The public vs private is confusing, as is...well, everything else. I need to work my way through that site again. Times like now I wish I was still teaching. Lol, teenagers taught me most of what I know about smart phones, I'm sure this wouldn't be a problem!
pgp is the anti-teenager tech it's more like some old warlock shit
Lmao, OK, you just gave me a little confidence. So it might be reasonable for an old fart who used Pascal on a mainframe for word processing?
I'll have a pop, fella. it'll shake-out something like the below... (the image is separate from my list, I just listed so I half-assed this :p ). take in the image. then read the text below.
1. install gpg suite (search). the installed gpg keychain software will be used to manage your keypair/s. a keypair is a private key and associated public key.
2. run the software. create keypair using appropriate information... the private key is fyeo. do not give it to anyone.
3. save you public key to your lb profile. so your message recipients can verify you (your signature) and send messages back to you. here lb is the 'trusted source'.
4.get the public key from a trusted source (which here is lb) of who you want to send a message to and save that in the gpg keychain software.
5. you can now send that person a message which is encrypted with the aforementioned recipients public key. you sign it with your private key. so you'd send the encrypted message in lb.
6. the recipient uses their private key to decrypt and read your message, verified as from you by the signature.
i. the reverse (how other reply/send to you) is essentially the same thing.
ii. to do encrypt and decrypt in windows is probably a right-click context menu item in outlook or maybe on a text file, idk tbh because f ms.
iii. yes, there is loads of info missing but should those bits should be more easily searchable.
iv. the ---pgp block--- cypher (header/footer included) is the encrypted message to be sent of decrypted.

Use a browser like Brave, with VPN, and you should be fine.
Don't worry, PGP can be confusing but if you go to a seller you trust, and do the above you'll be safe.
PGP is basically the cherry the on top of the cake. It's not the be all and end all. I've only had one buyer so far who used it, out of over 40.
Keep yourself safe in other ways and PGP is (relatively) unimportant.
Cheers. BB

Life extension and reversal of the Epigenetic Clock. Good or bad?
Hey, I dont know if this has already been covered on here but it's something I find fascinating since I was introduced to Prof. David Sinclair by the Joe Rogan experience (#1234 and #1349 if you're interested)
I have attached an article about a small study that was done in California. The study only had 9 subjects and no control arm so I dont think we can take it TOO seriously. But the results, quite frankly, were astonishing.
I'm not going to try and explain how all of this works as I'm sure I'll butcher it but here's a key paragraph from the article.
'For one year, nine healthy volunteers took a cocktail of three common drugs — growth hormone and two diabetes medications — and on average shed 2.5 years of their biological ages, measured by analysing marks on a person’s genomes. The participants’ immune systems also showed signs of rejuvenation.'
To me that's pretty crazy, right? And from what I understand there are a couple of effective substances/medications available for reversing the epigenetic clock than were not used in this study.
And if you pay attention to Prof. Sinclair he believes that it is well in the realm of possibility that we could live anything up to 80 years longer in the future.
But what happens when we are all living til we are 180 years old? Will we have enough resources? Will the planet be able to cope with the inevitable mass increase in human population if this is the case? I mean, we seem to be struggling a bit globally as we are.
Just thought it was an interesting topic and would love to know your thoughts.
Happy Monday

Why? shouldn't we all be asking why we want to live longer, rather than going along with that reactionary action from deep in the psyche of 'Yes ofcourse I want to live longer!' and I don't care why I do........
if you aren't suicidal you want to live, what more do you need than that?
yes sounds like a survival instinct. but isnt that the idea around this evolutionary space?
Thanks just that genetic measurement of age is an eye opener. Seems once you can do this you can measure everything we do against it.
Hey Han, yes indeed it is an eye opener. From what I've read that will be exactly the case. We should be able to mesure how specific habits etc. directly affect the epigenetic (horvath) clock. Exciting times for sure!

once they get the printer in space they can build a space station!
Putting one on the moon would be perfect with all the raw materials to feed the printer you could build cities.
this is awesome they become almost disposable and each rocket printed can be improved based on the last launch. its almost like software when you can manipulate and reproduce on this level.

Why BTC when you have STABLECOINS

Why BTC when you have STABLECOINS
I have placed a fair few orders here but never posted before. I love it. However it's just a fact that BTC is expensive to move around and the USD value fluctuates wildly. So why not implement a similar system but with stablecoins? A stablecoin on Ethereum is very cheap to transact with and the USD value is... 1 USD.
These are the main ones:
-Tether (USDT): created by the Bitfinex exchange, there are like 4 billion of these in circulation, but it is backed by dollars held in some dodgy bank in the bahamas (or not!!!). May be one to avoid IMO.
-USD Coin (USDC): similar concept but backed by Coinbase. About 400mil in circulation but way more reputable and cleared with US regulators.
-DAI: backed by ETH held as collateral without a dollar in sight, algorithmically pegged to USD. A remarkably clever system that's the closest thing to a 'true' decentralised stablecoin. If you are a clever clogs you will enjoy reading about this one. About 80 mil in circulation.
It gets better... if you build a system that works with one ERC20 token, it works with all tokens! Merchants can get paid in whichever stablecoin they please.
Thoughts? I appreciate BTC has been around the longest and reliable software is hard to come by...

to my knowledge the stablecoins are more centralised and they can "freeze funds" whereas the worst thing with bitcoin is tainted coins and there are multiple ways around that.
a decentralised stablecoin where the risk of frozen funds isn't there would be perfect
a decentralised stablecoin where the risk of frozen funds isn't there would be perfect
True. It's interesting though, if this community minted the stable coins and used similar reputation algorithms as the escrow provider then we would have no increase in control loss.
Really good point, they are ultimately reliant on smart contracts, code that executes buy and sell purchases in dollars (or pounds, euro etc) to keep the exchange rate stable.
It gets pretty complex because the markets for these coins are small and manipulable so they build in protective trading strategies to the contract code. Even if the code is open source no one can say if these behaviors will work and keep the exchange rate stable.
This is my gripe with stable coins, they have downside risk with no upside potential.

I’ve never had any problems with 1st national. They’ve always treated me with respect and l always get my order in 3 days. They have a large inventory of products as well.
agree with Lanky. 1st National has done right by me. Triforce is the one to avoid. I lost $110 for a cart I never received
I did. If I get it back, it will take awhile. If/when I get it, I will consider it a bonus. Anytime I try a newbie, I expect to lose my money-that way, if I lose it, I don't feel bad and I have no anxiety trying to recover it.
We have some lovely silver haze and vape liquid check us out

Proven: US Democracy = What China imposes on Hong Kong
.02% of the population nominates the candidates in both countries, leaving voters as chumps. In HK it's compliance with the Chines government that gets the nomination in the US it's compliance with the campaign's financiers.
I just saw the part where he shows there is no correlation between public support and legislation but a strong correlation between financial support and legislation, it's kind of mind blowing even if you're already jaded.
In both countries its a free market economy for small players. Once there is size it changes, in China big firms are controlled by government in the US big firms control the government.
Yeah that's a bigger deal and less click baity than the title.

Should I go ahead and order if seller hasn't replied to message?

Should I go ahead and order if seller hasn't replied to message?
I want to order multiple bottles of oil, so I messaged the seller to check they had them in stock and they haven't responded. Someone advised me to go ahead and order anyway. Is that a good or bad idea, any advice appreciated...... Cheers
I made a mistake on my order (noob here) and didnt include the post and packaging. I then 'boght' again with enough to cover the post and packaging. I ahve messaged the vendor x3 now and no reply. Should I just dispute or be patient? The vendor has a great rep so sure all ok and really want the product. Frustrating when you dont get a reply. Order just sitting at 'partially paid'. Cheers
contact transaxe support they will sort it
yay. goodonya for posting resolution :)
no, unless you have a relationship established and even then I would hesitate.
to me, communication is the key here. I can handle any problem if the seller let's me know what is going on from their end

I wish this was encapsulated in an lb reputation, a seller that does this frequently should be noted as such.
agree 100%. Sellers need to be more aware of the anxiety on the buyer's end. When I place an order, I like to see the progression of the order from placed to paid to sent to arrival. I just bought a cart from saynotodrugs and he provides tracking so I can see where the package is. That is a huge perk. It's my first order from saynotodrugs, so I won't get too excited until the package arrives but the tracking is a nice feature with a first time buy
That's what I thought, they replied to the first message I sent few days ago but not the last two but has been online. Unfortunately I'm looking for THC spray and they had great reviews but not only that, I can't find any other THC spray on here.
Thank you for responding, I appreciate it.

If they replied to a message and you sent another 2 they might just be a bit busy, you can also use the threads on the item's page so other users can chime in.
@Hairy, yeah, that's what I was thinking, and I don't wanna he a pain in the ass, got another reply in the middle of the night, been trying to order since Mon though so as I needed it by end of next week at latest, waiting to find out how quick it can be posted now before paying so if I don't hear back for days again, I can't take a chance. Thanks for replying :)
try {wanted items}
@funway. Cheers, finally found the Wanted section.....I keep getting lost, thanks for replying :)
I ordered and paid in bitcoins but the order now says
Expired!? I’ve tried contacting the seller but not getting a reply. What do I do??

Yoga enhances perception and gets cannabinoids flowing.

Why can't I find harder shit on little biggy?
Then buy a few Skinner boxes and OD your shit.
Why can't I find harder shit on little biggy?
Just stick to LittleBiggy. Theres a reason why LB still around.. no hard stuff.. There's plenty of good vendors available offering a various range of other products.
P.s Flowers are not just for women ;)

You could get a Tor app and take your chances on the darknet, although l wouldn't. I did look, but l didn't try to buy anything. Heard too many stories about people being ripped off. If the original Silk Road was still around, yes, l probably would have bought something, but now...nope.
You can't, although I don't comprehend why... anything used wrongfully or excessively will cause harm. The harm factor is the user most of the time not the product (shit as fentanyl/heroin/strong opioids excepted)
When Chuck Schumer brought down the original Silk Road, it wasn't the flower that first drew his attention, it was the hard shit. I can only speak for myself but l sure as hell don't want to witness the demise of the lb. lt took so long to find it in the first place and it was still just dumb luck that l did. If the hard shit expedited the SR'S demise, keep it "off the air". Besides, I don't have it in me to find another legit online source.
Maybe with more reputation you can see something but I don't see shit after a long time here
they get downvotes.to hell fast.
I have seen the debates a few times. It all comes down to the theoretical, potential harm. Basically if someone can potentially overdose it's not going to cut it around here.

is this cancer?
I noticed this on my chest over the sternum. Its a deacdes old mole (i have lots) that seems like its mutated. The area in the pic is 1cm radius
How long has it been like that?
Was it getting irritated by what you wear?
What part of your chest is it?
How is your hygiene?
Have a close look at this mole, does it have a hair growing out of it, even if it is a tiny tiny one?
Moles with hair do not turn into malignant tumours such as cancer.
Nevertheless, I'd suggest to show it to an oncologist.

I've had the mole forever but it just got funny in the last few days, it's coming a bit down since the post though. It's right in the middle of my sternum on both axes. My hygeine is good but I should note my laptop battery sits right over the area for hours a day.
No hair, that's a really good one though I didn't know that.
Thanks a lot, I can't afford an oncologist so this is all especially appreciated.

I am glad the inflammation is less.
The mole must have got irritated from constant contact with the battery.
But better be safe than sorry. Go and see a professional.
Is there no state "provided" dermatologist where you live?
Otherwise, A.D.D.MEN idea seems doable, no?

You don't need an oncologist for this even if it were cancer (and I'd agree that looks unlikely). Just go to a dermatologist, they will remove the mole and send it for a biopsy if it looks bad. Dermatologists are very commercial and thus competitive, call a few and get prices. Even in the U$A you can expect to leave the office knowing what's up for what 7 grams of weed costs here :)
I'm guessing blood blister underneath the more, I can see another one nearby.
I shouldn't be so emphatic but no, it looks like pimple meets mole. You look like very freckled though and an examination would be a great idea every now and then. Note you are you are going to need some help to see the fun bits, even a low rent dermatologist can handle this as well as get a biopsy off to the lab.
Seems pretty tough, you need to be able to reach the skin, cut yourself without fucking up maybe novocaine to do it right, keep the sample sterile and cool now get it to the lab. I'm not sure they will even accept it you should start by asking them if you are serious.
Or you could just use one of these
