I mean they are all poisons, but they have therapeutic effects at the right doses and compounds.

heroin is the chemical basis for a few medications including one that helps with withdrawal from addictive drugs.

much of the gasses used for ☠️, were later reformulated for effective nerve numbing and Anesthesia for surgery.

Under Pressure, clearly

is that where pork sherry comes from?

surprisingly, it’s actually not… there was a study a few years ago before Trump suggesting that fissle material that cannot be used in a dirty bomb and was targeted at energy production, was far more availible if you appeared to be a educator or in the education sector…

not that I’m suggesting anything, but from a purely human discussion standpoint, in the age of AI and deep fakes. the only reason this hasn’t happened is people don’t want to risk it.

generally speaking those with the means, generally are benefiting from the corruption ATM.

depends on how it’s declared and transported. as there is classes for each type.

surprisingly, I believe jewelry and personal goods is the lowest tax bracket. which technically applies to alot of things even electronics.

obviously every nation is different, but you have to be careful in how things are declared, otherwise they may be just flat out rejected because it wasn’t bought inside your nation. (censorship controls apply to imported goods like media, toys, magazines, electronics goods, and household items. it’s best to treat each thing not as what it actually is but what it’s made from to avoid refusals and overtax due to poor import system that blindly denies.)

there no benifits to this. extreme bacterial contaminations and mold/fungus concerns aside, there is simply too much unprocessed food available that goes unsold and is wasted as a result to ever need to recort to this.

it’s not a ecology issue, there has never been a shortage of “food”. when people say there is a “Shortage of food”, what they mean is there is a shortage of food /given/ to them.

it’s a economic shortage of food. they do not have enough wealth to acquire food and therefore they are not getting any. greed is the reason there is so much food wasted. not at the table, but at the market.

governments should be subsidising the poor and supporting their food needs by taking excess from markets at value, not margin.

as soon as food starts the process of production, before it even hits a preparation or cooking surface it has bacteria on it. nothing is completely clean.

freezing, washing and cooking ingredients reduces these or makes them go dormant. but it does not get rid of them entirely.

when it’s plated and served, that bacteria is already stating to revive and reproduce. by the end of a meal, between all the new nutrients from the human body added to the plate from the utensils, the leftover food is a breeding ground. this is why leftovers are generally considered risky if not handled properly.

you simply cannot reliably disinfect them and the only things you can do is store it in a chilled environment to slow bacterial growth and reheat to aid in killing some but not all of that new growth off.

if you start mixing these together, the salavia, which is unavoidable as spittle occurs whether you notice it or not, and trace amounts are on your utensils from mouth contact. plus any airborne contaminants from the person are in the food.

it basically becomes a Petri dish. as it’s a perfect microcosm for bacteria and mold…

we used to grow mold, yeast and fungus by spitting on potatoes and rice. to later harvest it. we understand it well.

not op, but I assume they are vegan. many vegans have the misconception any product from a animal is violence against them. as they cannot consent…

but the truth is, no vegans live on farms… they don’t understand chickens lay unfirtalized eggs regardless.

they also see the breeding programs of chickens as violent as it’s for producing meat/eggs. so by raising chickens you are perpetuating it… but that’s stupid. that’s like seeing a hurt dog by the side of the road and saying “if we help that one we have to help all of them”. baby chicks are often given away not sold…

and a lack of companies with ethics. shipping companies often make massive profits. there is nothing stopping them from shipping donations for free…

media, used to store, transmit, and deliver information.

food == nutrition + dna. nutrition is the various vitamins, nutrients, fats and enzymes the body needs to maintain cellular function and repair.

food == a media for delivering nutrition and DNA information to the human body. 😵‍💫

meanwhile I’m overhere with…

keyboard, mouse, camera, 4x flash drive, game controller, ebook reader, external storage disk, printer, VR headset, multimedia card reader, LED controller, my monitor (USBc display + hub + KVM) and my phone…

ofcourse not all at the same time. but I have a mess of USB extensions and hubs as I don’t have enough root Ports lol

(Linux not hacintosh) I apparently couldn’t run it if I wanted to.

“so a typical PC motherboard destabilizes the system” you don’t say. Steve jobs killed the external Macos program they had for GSeries and m68k Mac’s when he came back saying internally “if you let competition thrive you cannot drive demand”.

so I think we can guess why it’s hard coded lol

That’s the first step to it. SystemD doesn’t need to store any private data like that. Like most changes, if it’s done in stages, instead of all at once. It’s much harder to revert…

Better yet, vote/demand actual punishments for parents when their children chose to commit crimes as they don’t want to parent.

However this is not entirely true either, for two reasons.

1. Philosophical: FOSS relies on the “many eyes” approach to security. Adding any API, even internal adds another layer of risk. This is exactly why some projects refuse to have API access to application data, even if it runs from a privileged forked service. (Using locked sockets or other methods instead).

Any open port is a attack vector and no matter how secure it is today, tomorrow is not a promise. More so with how this overlaps with laws like Australia’s, which requires all encryption to provide a backdoor for government access. (This means the 5 eyes nations get access by definition to this API while it’s in transit, as soon as it leaves the host system…)

But that’s not just the only issue. The whole issue with libxz being targeted by nation state sabotage proved that, it’s possible to put backdoors into applications despite “many eyes” on the code. (That case was only caught because one obsessive person over the /testing/ speed… 90% of such attempts in most projects would go unnoticed simply as there is not enough maintainers)

2. Licensed software: not all applications are completely open, even if the underlying OS is. This is a API thats exposed to all userland applications. Nothing stops Firefox for example from using binary blobs in Thier source to “sign” this data for supporting websites, then send this data to places you don’t consent.

Firefox is just a example, so many applications use permissable licenses that don’t require all of the sourcecode to be human readable or even accessible.

Big thing is nothing stops driver vendors from stealing this data too, no different than Microsoft does, whether or not you are signed Into a Microsoft account on windows. Telemetry is already a growing issue and the scope of telemetry data in closed source blobs doesn’t have to be defined…

So by definition it’s not any more secure…

Even if it was, the bigger question is why. Why does the application or web service need to know.

If a child walks into a liquor store and steals alcohol, they get arrested. The burden of proof was never on the liquor store. Why is the burden of proof on the OS and not the parent or child.

We don’t need nanny software, that teaches kids to be better liars. We need stronger punishments for criminal actions, regardless of age and more importantly punishments for the parents for allowing it to occur. Babygating the entire OS for some one elses children that would never touch it, legally. Is a example of creating solutions for a problem YOU(parents/government) created.

All of these age laws came from the social media bans. These of which only came into existence as a means of datacollection… Non-compliance, is actually compliance with how they are written, as they all place the burden of proof on you. No evidence == no crime. It’s still a crime to lie about your age to age restricted content.

can’t expose what doesn’t exist. if a site asks for age verification, stop using it and find a alternative that respects privacy.

your OS starts asking for your identity information, to share with everyone that pokes a open API, it’s time to jump OSs…

privacy is something you make a best effort to avoid creating obvious methods of exploiting. you don’t share your credit card numbers with every email too, just because they say they cannot prove it was your card on file?

identity is personal online, no one is entitled to it unless you choose to share it. otherwise it’s a invasion of privacy.

want to protect kids? educate them and keep them off tiktok/social media by fining the parents when they are identified.

fined twice? treat the kid like you would any other time a theft of service occurs.

there is no such thing as privacy when sharing private information, that’s accessible remotely.

leaks can and will occur. but more importantly this will be used to create digital associations between inviduals and Their online presence, just like all the other digital identity laws have.

it protects no one, as getting around it is easy as lying. while intentionally harming adults that comply out of necessity.

there is a reason people are jumping ship from privacy invading services already…

the solution is holding parents (and the child) responsible for the action of their childrens actions and not trying to create industry wide privacy invasion for bad actors to use. what’s next, gold stars for Linux users to wear?

I completely agree with this. treat it like a privilege level. it’s that simple. it doesn’t need to define “age”, it can just define what a account cannot access.

this is all a slippery slope, and a terrible one at that. gates protect no one and just tech people to learn to get around them…

• licensed sign. if it’s not licensed, and printed overseas and shipped… it’s a looot cheaper. RadioShack signs were just black with red lettering. match the font, have plastic lettering made and use a black backing board and your done.

for internal signs, about $30 for large prints. they come shipped in a large roll.

it’s far cheaper than you think, what hurts you is things you cant simulate with plastic/cardboard/etc. actual goods on display.

depending on the business you are targeting and the era. getting products to display that are in mint condition is expensive.

surprisingly, the cheapest ones are clothing stores. you can just pick up reproductions. the plastic pushtags and original product label tags are cheap to make if you have references. they just make them in sheets with cardboard backing. you make a stencil, mark the outlines of each tag with a hobby knife and cut them out.

the most expensive cost is the space. leasing and restoring/maintaing a space is not cheap. even “abandoned” malls still want premiums for those stores…

I suggest you look into lucid dreaming, hypnosis and shared dreaming.

the brain is incredibly complex and only 1/15th of what we consider “conscious thought” is truly conscious.

When we sleep, some parts of our brains remain active. historically we think it did this to keep a eye on the external stimuli(senses) so we can react to predators.

but as we have evolved, our bodies and brains changed. we still try to process those sensory inputs, but we we sleep we stop receiving most of them, so our brain begins to fill in the blanks. as we do, our brain begins to recall trauma and pleasure, to try and process them. they are always ever present anyways, shaping how we experience reality. in this shapeless, sensory less space, its the primary drive of effectively internal hallucinations.

as we sleep, we process those emotions by expierencing, emotionally drive hallucinations by our brain.

how do we know this? it’s been documented via sensory deprivation experiments. the overlap with drugs such as LSD is uncanny and it led to a much deeper understanding of both psychology and dream studies.

this is also why we now know “phantom limb” disorders are a result of psychological effects, not physical ones. the brain is fully aware of the lack of tissue, our psyche is the one that refuses to accept it does not exist. this is why people born with missing or deformed limbs do not expierence the same.

all this said, dreams prevent us from going insane. without them, rest feels less fulfilling as our brain fails to relax. even a nightmare is better for the overall psyche, then endless silence.
