The evil that is fiat money has only put a roof over my head, given me an education, bought my car, yearly holidays, food, clothes, medication, healthcare, books, games, TVs, drink, drugs, guitars, computers, phones, tablets and countless other goods and services that have brought pleasure, entertainment and increased my living standard over the years. Those who control fiat money are evil. The bastards. I feel like a twat now for been so gullible.

Money as a system of control (video)
Andreas M. Antonopoulos is the most articulate and inspiring voice Bitcoin has. Despite his enormous technical expertise he sees the fundamental proposition of crytpo freedom as the lowest layer of the network.
At least with multiple currencies we still have the power to choose, isn't that what freedom is?
There's currently a viral post going around showing a photo in a pizza hut window saying 'credit cards only' and then some crap saying how people will lose control of their assets if we move away from money lol.
It doesn't matter if it's cards, bank deposits or even cash in hand. It's all under the control of a central government that's why it's called "fiat". It can be seized, de-valued, or bankrupted. Given enough time that's exactly what has happened to *every* fiat currency in history.
When I read the title I thought this was about capitalism and making people dependent upon money. Instead this is about the fact that government issues currency and can use that to control everything it touches basically, it's a shocking eye opener.
Yes it's not even the amount of money they have it's that they define it, that's implies ultimate ownership of all of it.
He gives me hope that the revolution is unstoppable, that an exit from a corrupted society is not only possible but inevitable.
All of his lectures are great. I'd recommend the podcasts over the video, they look like a spycam.

Why Cryonics Makes Sense
No way, decaying in the ground is what the elders …
Why Cryonics Makes Sense
Great piece on why this cryonics is simply a rational decision.
I love this opening:
You’re on an airplane when you hear a loud sound and things start violently shaking. A minute later, the captain comes on the speaker and says:
There’s been an explosion in the engine, and the plane is going to crash in 15 minutes. There’s no chance of survival. There is a potential way out—the plane happens to be transferring a shipment of parachutes, and anyone who would like to use one to escape the plane may do so. But I must warn you—the parachutes are experimental and completely untested, with no guarantee to work. We also have no idea what the terrain will be like down below. Please line up in the aisle if you’d like a parachute, and the flight attendants will give you one, show you how to use it and usher you to the emergency exit where you can jump. Those who choose not to take that option, please remain in your seat—this will be over soon, and you will feel no pain.
What would you do?

the problem i see is that it's a trust based system and you are trusting people selling an afterlife. that doesn't bring us much further than religious belief in life after death.
Can't say I see a lot of downside with this one.
Howd that one work out for ya elders?
we dont really know :)
You still get the chance to be dead with cryonics, it's a win win wrt the elders.

the pain, pleasure of cannabis detox
if you think this post is about you it already is.
and if that last line made you back off from owning then i’m talking to you especially. the basis of addiction is denial just ask your friend’s of bill’s. and make sure you cut them off before you wind up at a meeting, we’ll have none of that here but it is time for you to take a break to clean up and maybe get a little perspective on your usage from an un-stoned mind. then perhaps get really stoned and verify you results.
what we’re trying to do here is break the loop of needing to get stoned to maintain. being un-stoned needs to be something you enjoy too. and if you’re always stoned then being un-stoned can often be as novel and trippy as being stoned used to be.
1
in the beginning this all may take a little internal cajoling: think about how much more stoned you are going to be when your system clears out all the cannabanoid residue. like a clean bong, ahhhh. follow the regime below and you’ll prove this right away, it will be the only mantra you need to stay strong.
2
regulate intake, this is much easier to do with edibles, particularly thc caps and hash. your eating routine will have to be regulated around the edibles, they work faster on an empty stomach and are strongest if you eat less and exercise more - if this is beginning to sound like a cure all and the key to a long and healthy life then so be it.
3
when you badly want (need??) to smoke substitute w/ non thc compulsions like:
exercise, especially fun stuff rather than disciplined
listen to favorite music repeatedly
have sex/masterbate
watch a video
play a game
shop
day 1 - jump into the baby pool
cut thc intake to 50% of starting point
use edibles for at least 1/2 of your intake
day 2
drink lots of water from now on
cut thc intake to 40% of starting point
use edibles for at least 2/3 of your intake
day 3
start ramping up the excecise
cut thc intake to 30% of starting point
use edibles for all of your intake going forward
day 4 - 6 - thc scrubbing
cut another small fraction off your thc intake each day, it feels like you’re winning because you are.
note the exercise resurfaces the old thc, increase it to “scrub the bong” into your bloodstream.
day 7 - warm turkey
no thc intake
distracting fun time
day 8 - party on!
indulge in 25% of original intake - this will be more than enough, i promise.
day 9 - you the boss
no thc intake
you know the drill now, exercise and entertain your way into feeling good
day 10 - 30
decrease thc dose, 15% of your original amount is easy to sustain
take every 3rd day off from thc
day 30+
take off consecutive days each week now that you are a healthy partaker in control of your own destiny. congratulations.

Ive been smoking for 30 years to help my depression, in that time i have had a 12 month spell and an 18 month spell without weed simply due to my autism and social awkwardness. I was a 30 tonne a night labourer so my fitness i thought should be sufficient to cope without weed. I can absolutely go on record as saying even after 18 months with zero thc i never ever recovered from my need for weed. I have no family and have lived in total isolation my whole life, except for my cat. Legitimately i am 1 soul whos need for this plant supersedes plain addition. Just bought a house on the western isles miles from anything where once lockdown rules allow me to move there ishall retreat to an early retirement and in that location im confident i can be one of less than 100 uk residents prescribed this for depression. Its nearly impossible to get this on mainland uk because once a few people get a script it opens the floodgates.Hopefully in the coming months my weed bill will be 7 quid a month for 28g. I dont class myself an addict because my consumption has never increased. Ive never lost a job or committed a crime to fund a simple medical requirement. Where is the line between addition and necessity? Im in my late 40s and the last time i even ate a meal in the company of another human i was 19. That type of solitude some would say is caused by weed. I say my high spectrum autism caused those issues and weed makes it acceptable. So if 2 people smoke a gram a day is 1 an addict for using with no ailment and the other ok because a doctor says thats what is needed.
Always Be Down-dosing - that's my mantra. Then about once a week I updose :) if I'm with friends or for sport performance, then it's back down every day. Fucking guiltless and I'm always stoned
i think my dad called this english drinking
Thank you for the post man, appreciate it, definitely gonna try my best to follow this through and if I come out on top at the end, maybe I can control my need for weed. ;)
I stopped smoking for about 40 days an I get stoned so easy now it was the first time off it in 13years feel so much better for it
what ya smoking these days?
ww from rb, some of the worst bud ive ever had, pretty sure its been rinsed :(
Definitely helps to have it written out the way you have it, will try it out.
This is such sound advice, the cutting down intake prior to stopping helped immensely. Back to a lower tolerance saves money and makes smoking actually work again. I suffer bad withdrawal usually but with this method and some will power it isn't half as bad. Cheers
blur has the best advice for this
Perfect I think exercise with detox is the ultimate life hack, you can get a fix every time you feel bad and then you've got a healing loop started.
1 rule people: don't dose to feel good, just dose to not feel bad.
I would say if you want to add just a little transition step in there between the smoking and edibles there's always hash. You can smoke it and eat it :)
I feel the same way about binge watching ?
+1, you need a good hobby to distract u from your cravings, exercise helps too, best of luck with the detoxifying
This is great but the thing is there's some of us that need something for the pain. Not the pain of quitting cannabis but the pain of living without it. I got hurt many years ago, tried a lot of things since then and cannabis has been the best answer without a doubt.
I agree with your comment, but I find that anything I use for pain loses its effectiveness over time. Cannabis is best in that I don't get any negative side effects, and it does continue to work well for a good month or so. I also don't have to fear drug interactions like when I'm relying on prescribed narcotics.
The prescription narcotics typically only do a good job on the pain for about 3 days. A new patch is still a bit helpful for a couple of weeks. But all my pain related prescriptions cause side effects varying from mild, to migraines, and serious nausea, going on, and coming off them.
The part that really chaps my ass is the mindset of so many doctors that won't even talk about using cannabis. They either push more narcotics, or tell me there's nothing else they can do, I just have to deal with it. I desperately wish I could make them feel what I do for just a few days, maybe they'd be more understanding.

This is awesome, thanks for it. Can I add 1 thing, it's to the compulsion fighting part. If you're having an overwhelming feeling to partake then just change your environment, get out of the room youre in, walk away from where you are, get in or out if the car. This is one of the easiest and most reliable tricks for clearing your head.
tts is the best vendor here,killer shit and always he's always more interested in what matters.

Drug driving. Has anyone been caught?
How does he keep getting caught?
Yes me unfortunately I hadn’t smoked that day either 12 month ban and a fine and I’m a lorry driver so had to give up my job I now use some keltic mist spray
Does the celtic mist work checked out that profile on facebook a while back and did a bit of research ...looks 100% fake
Same here ive never even had a license an got banned a couple years back for 12 months. Wouldn't risk it again pal second time we've had it just be careful, I've heard hydroperoxide beats the swab, just obviously have it in a bottle of water and spit it out in the footwell or something haha
Here in Ireland my brother got caught after smoking and he got 4 years off the road then two weeks after the 1st time being caught he was caught again and now he is off the road for 9 years..i know he was a fool for getting caught the second time but I have a mate that got caught drink driving and only got 2 and a half years and he could barely stand up..
Fuck, thats the kind of sentence that just makes regular people criminals.
My pal got busted twice within 1 week! The second time he got caught was because he was driving the same car which was then flagged as a drugs car after the first time.
I been doing a lil research. Apparently listerin mouthwash works for about 45 min. Also was advised to deny and not take any type of drugs test but to ask for a doctor to perform field sobriety test. Obviously you would get arrested but they can’t ban you.

I've heard about the mouthwash thing, but don't want to be the one to test the theory - also Listerine contains alcohol so you might fail a breathalyzer for no reason. What's more worrying is that I've heard rumours you can fail a test for up to a week after toking which is crazy and incredibly unfair.
Hopefully someone will be able to get hold of the test, and experiment with it to see what the limits are. I can understand why they don't want people driving when they're stoned out of their mind, but I don't think there's a herb on the planet that stones you for 2 - 3 days.
When medical legalization happens they will have to come up with a fairer test. Don't know what they do in America.

I would never drive in Ireland wiithout the help of beng stoned it''s like the whole country is 1 winding lane around a blind turn. Intuition is the only thing keeping anyone alive and I find weed optimizes this. The pints just give you balls and that has fucked results.
100% agree with that haha murine eye drops help big time when the eyes are red. I couldn't handle 4 years off the road.
murine are the best eye drops in the game

bitcoin vs ethereum
The ethernet blockchain is "Turing Complete&q…
Smart contracts and way cooler community and ideology. Everything starts with an eth. Google Defi, in case you hadnt heard about its recent explosion. The peoples financial system is emerging quickly. BTC looks old in comparison and should play a role as the vaults of crypto, but nothing at all exciting going on. Eth on the other hand...
The ethernet blockchain is "Turing Complete" you can program anything on it. Get a metamask extension for your browser and you can cruise a "decentralized web" that runs on top of the ethernet blockchain. These sites are more resilient than the tor hidden service they really can't be taken down since there is no server.
Bitcoin is a platform for money - like an open network for accounting software vaguely.
Ethereum is a platform for more complex contracts between computers - like an open network for business law. The ETH coin is a subset of all this.

Just to expand on "social accounting" its basically a bunch of computers agreeing that a coin moved from one to another, with all the records being opened and "confirmed", thats why you wait for confirmations after you send coins.
The motivation behind them is hugely different. bitcoins were created by libertarian types, looking to create a free world on the internet.
Ethereum was more about technical perfection for such an effort. It's not only a coin but a language for commerce between machines.

Is it no depending on the vendors you've used? I usually use jj & have also used radar breeder. I've never had an issue with any order. I will prob be sticking with jj, but would use RB again. Every order I've got usually in 1 - 2 days, 3 days on bank holiday, using jj free NDD, or RB NDD for a few £s. If uv used different vendors, I'd try jj 1st, or RB. I've had 4 orders over the last month np

I've had 4 orders over the last month. Np s with any, usually use jj, with free NDD, the postage is no ending up being inc in the price of the smoke either, cos prices are pretty much the same as 1s who charge for NDD. I also used Radar breeder & got NDD for about £3-4. Could hav paid less for normal 1st class post. I'm sticking with my usual sellers, & hav been getting decent smoke frm them as well
The rating system is ok but I wish there were rankings. The voting system or algo that appoints these loud mouthed twats you always see as the voice of the community is what needs an overhaul.
there are more vendors and better prices than a few months ago do you realise this?
More vendors yes, as good vendors no, charging $7 to ship $55 8ths lolol, yeah fantastic mate, more vendors means better weed to you?! Clever guy and I get downvoted by you, a fool is easily parted with his money, you’re one of those 10/10 to everything you buy I presume... go to Dam smoke hundreds of strains over 20 years and then give an opinion mate cos that’s what I’ve done.
Do you not see that prices are steadily decreasing? I've downvoted you not for your opinion but that you are using one datapoint to generalise.
Of course more options makes things more competitive that's a foundation of economics.
Of course more options makes things more competitive that's a foundation of economics.
Nope I don’t see that at all... where? Where are these price drops? Cali maybe but they were being priced too high originally anyways so they had to drop. Prices are the same generally but now they are charging for shipping, that means it’s more expensive now doesn’t it... New vendor with zero history charging $18 a gram lol, firstly who wants a gram of weed? It’d be gone before the postman’s left the street. Then another new vendor charging $7 to ship 2g of herb. Some of the weeds a bit cheaper cos it’s shit weed, people getting mouldy organic crap that smokes like air.
And yeah I totally agree with you on the last comment, but I’m not personally seeing this come into any fruition on here at all especially from the new vendors, they’re coming in with ridiculously high prices with zero groundwork or proof they even know what they’re doing or the quality of their product.

There is a lot you can do, that's the point of this community. Why not take this to escrow and make a dispute?
If you weren't full of shit you would just contact escrow and get your money back instead of making fud.
You’re the only person singing that song here, what’s happened? Did you ask vendors what’s going on
Yeah I asked the vendors feel like I’m getting a run a round
I now have no weed and no money so thanks for that
Fucking amateurs
It’s not the money it’s the fact that I am now in pain and can’t afford any medical herbs until I get paid end of March so what the fuck do I do now?

On this point mate I think you’ve just been very very unlucky, there are some really good vendors on here and some lovely bud available so stick with it find a good vendor and enjoy, I’ve had some banging gear from here and some real real disappointments but overall it’s a great resource and a really fantastic community, I just feel recently quality is slipping, reports of mouldy bud, police visits, average at best smokes, non receipt of good etc is not good.
