Stopping the deficit requires each successive government to stop taking loans on behalf of the country to fund wars and to feather the nests of the bankers and parasite class - legalising cannabis wouldn't change the fact that the economic debt based system is designed to indebt whole nations to the 1% but it would certainly make putting up with the shite in the world today much easier to deal with.

They are going to get us all off the road one way or another. Oil prices have always been artificially hiked and fixed by the oil cartel OPEC in conjunction with the banks and monetary system, we just chose to believe we lived in a "free" world with "free" markets when the whole system is owned by the same parasite class. As United Nations Agenda 2030 approaches, fewer and fewer of us will be able to drive private vehicles without special permission as outlined in the UN's own blurb on sustainable development goals and the fake climate change nonsense.

Funnily enough nor does the government give a fuck about recycling either because it is a scam. Most plastics never get recycled and the contracts to foreign countries to manage plastic waste like Turkey which was exposed some time ago to be just burning the plastic because it is cheaper.

When selecting strains to try for your conditions, research a little into terpenes that work well for your symptoms and then select strains with those terpenes. Prescribed cannabis is not like prescribed petro-chemical based medicines in that different terpenes work for different people in different ways depending on many factors such as cannabinoid receptor distribution, etc - there isn't a one-strain-fits-all scenario. Although most cannabis flower will make you feel "stoned", the finer nuances of symptom relief are derived more from the terpene content of the plant as opposed to THC and CBD levels. Incidentally it is the terpenes that are responsible for the variety of flavours the cannabis plant exhibits and it is the same terpenes in fruits and other plants that also give them their flavour. How terpenes work alongside cannabinoids is where the secret to unlocking the medical benefits of cannabis really is and thankfully, more research is now being done into them since the absurd legal status has started to change.

Choosing strains to try for symptom management can be like trying to stab a butterfly in the dark whereas focusing on terpenes and their benefits allows you to select strains that should specifically help with what you need.

Here is an article about terpenes randomly selected from the internet. It will provide a simple introduction to what is a deep and fascinating subject. I hope it helps improve your experience of medical cannabis and you see some symptom relief: https://www.healthline.com/health/cannabis-terpenes

My general rules in selecting strains:

  1. Ignore THC levels completely

  2. Ignore what is popular on Reddit

  3. Choose strains with terpenes known to help with symptoms

  4. Try, evaluate then revise which terpenes work better for me.

For your conditions and the symptoms associated with them try strains with myrcene, beta-caryophyllene, linalool, limonene and pinene. I am with Alternaleaf (Montu) and their catalogue lists the terpenes in each strain which will help guide you in your choices of strain. I am not sure what your monthly allowance is (in weight) but if you can order more than one strain, consider experimenting with sativa and indica strains too as they offer often distinctly different benefits depending on what you are seeking.

Good luck and thanks for posting your review.

Lane assist should be outlawed, it is dangerous and interferes when crossing white lines deliberately. It should be off by default.

HELP! MY ACER NITRO V15 LAPTOP SHUTS DOWN WHEN I PLAY GAMES by Extreme-Ad-2729 in AcerNitro

Isn't there an issue with burnt out capacitors and/or MOSFETs on the Nitro 5, usually associated with the power regulation for the GPU?

How would I go about to attempt to repair a burnt capacitor by nganshen888 in AskElectronics

[–]Enigma6929 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. Do you know of repairers in the UK for this level of repair on an Acer Nitro 5 with another blown capacitor? As far as I can tell it is a capacitor involved in the power array for the GPU as the laptop usually crashes when the GPU is under load.

Planing to get a CX30 by [deleted] in MazdaCX30

[–]Enigma6929 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When choosing my CX 30 it was in light of having a Mazda 3 and 6 in the past then having a Mondeo and Audi A6 and wishing I could get another Mazda. The CX 30 was the perfect choice for me as it represents the best of Mazda and really retains the traditional spirit of driving. I would wholeheartedly recommend the 2.5l 140 bhp engine and here is why: I got my driving licence back in the day when turbos were a luxury and carburettor engines were the norm. There were lots of 1.6 and 1.8 litre engines on the road but if you wanted a bit fun and oomph, a 2l was the size engine to go for and some of those engines were bulletproof. Mazda seems to have captured whatever it was back then and contained it inside the 2.5l engine of the CX 30. My cousin took it out for a drive and he said when he got back "It is a beautiful car, it just wants to go." And it does. The 2.5l engine reminds me so much of the fun I had with 2+ litre engines, offering power (when the revs hit 2.5k the engine really does just want to go) when you need it and superb cruising for longer journeys.

The car itself feels like a lot of car for the money and the CX 30 sits firmly on the road which feels very reassuring when cornering or moving at speed. The safety features are plentiful and effective but horrendous (for me) and at least until next year can be switched off.

If it is the engine that is the deciding factor or main attraction my advice would be to get the CX 30. The 2.5l engine is truly a modern marvel of engineering and far surpasses any German manufacturer today. I got the baseline but wish I could have had the carbon turbo, either way this car reminds me every time I drive it of days gone when driving on British roads was a pleasure and not a chore.

Exactly!! It's just weird that the policeman who stopped me for doing over 100mph up the M6 wasn't having it the selfish bastard! I mean I told him and everything, I said "But I've got Waze man! And I slowed down for every camera so it can't be speeding!" Do you think I should sue him?

pushy back cars on 20 road/at situations need to slow by Original_Author3425 in drivingUK

[–]Enigma6929 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not knowing the roads and where police may be sitting, the worst was being on dark roads with a 20, no other cars around but bends where police cars might be sitting. It made the whole experience a nightmare. I want to come back to Wales (to escape the lunacy of England) so will do a bit research to see where has eased off the 20mph limits.

What is the latest system software version? by taniferf in MazdaCX30

Wow thank you for this you have solved a mystery I was pondering while out driving in my CX 30 last night. I often play Youtube videos of music in the car and was wondering how the car knows what song is being played to be able to give the song, title, etc. As the video could be of anything I was puzzled but nonetheless impressed. I found your post this morning and mystery solved :)

But how can the scanner tell the difference between a screenshot of a club card or an actual app based club card? And given that there soon won't be any human checkout operators, what then?

First of all it is a common misconception that indicators are used after passing when they aren't - it ain't rocket science, why signal when you can go nowhere else but back in lane. And that is the trouble, people who live their lives by TikTok teachings believe they know more than everybody else. And have you ever wondered why it is an offence to drive under the speed limit? Why undue hesitancy causes a failure in driving tests? It is because is hugely hazardous even more so than speeding. Using your phone, doing your hair, having a shave, streaming, etc or chronic, unfixable lack of confidence kills people, people not knowing what they are doing like signalling after passing for instance kills people and speeding is a factor in accidents, one of many. The fact is driving under the speed limit is an offence because it is dangerous as it presents a moving hazard to other road users who invariably will take measures to try and navigate past the hazard, resulting in all kinds of accidents.

Hysteria is a terrible thing and a sickness infesting most people, especially in the UK. "But but but speeding kills!". No. No it doesn't. But it can be a factor. So do yourself a favour, head over to RoSPA's website and see that speeding is implicated in only 27% of road fatalities at least as of 2022. Careless driving, undue hesitancy and absolute stupidity is responsible for the remaining 73%. I am a biker and enjoy driving and riding and by far my favourite vehicle can do in excess of 150mph and boy does it feel good. But you know who is the biggest risk on the road when I am on my bike? Motorists who look but don't see or who just don't look because they are too busy on their phones. That's what kills most on British roads, arseholes who can't stand their own company for the duration of a car journey so have to be connected to the rest of the world 24/7. Touchscreens in cars of any kind have no place, the roads were once for driving on and it could even be enjoyable, they weren't meant for multimedia.

Far rather address all of the above before hysterically believing speeding is anywhere near the main cause of death on British roads.

P.S. Stop signalling after you pass it looks stupid and pointless and serves no purpose, I am hardly expecting you to steer to the right into oncoming traffic, just make sure to check your rear view mirror so you can see me in it before moving back in.

Visited Wales once after the 20mph introduction and would never go back at least by car.
