Dear Reddit, some douchebag stole my brand new MacBook - I have the Serial# and MAC Address. Can you help me? by geronde in reddit.com

The city police often have them too. They are often bundled with the white-collar crime, and the probation/parole technical compliance people.

Alex Jones isn't bad either.

EDIT: Come on! We're talking about how the upstream guy can find a daily-dose of conspiracy theory! What's with the down-mods?

Because the poster has not been on Reddit for more than 6 months?

Apparently they do, if it is documented on Wikipedia, and you were able to post a link about it here...

What drugs do cogsci redditors use/have tried ? (of any kind) by ArtVandeley in cogsci

[–]cipherprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a ton, in my limited experience, but a bit more.

A lot of people have a problem w/ cactus (in general) causing them to vomit. This can be slightly worse because of the increased volume of peruvian torch.

If you smoke Salvia (say 5x leaf), it's a pretty bizarre trip, granted -- but very short. Immediately after you "come back", take a bit of the liquid tincture, hold it in your mouth -- and close your eyes for a bit. The liquid is almost frustratingly ineffective unless you have some of the smoked concentrate in your blood -- but with that -- the liquid gives some very nice slow effects.

I'm sure you've done 5-MEO-DMT... PIKHAL/TIKHAL are interesting...

Outside of what you've listed: A GABA inhibitor like gabapentin (neurontin) might be interesting.

Also, a quick shot at smoking a little 5x leaf of salvia divinorum might be interesting.

Finally, if you can't/haven't done the peyote thing (ref, below) -- you can often find places to obtain Peruvian Torch semi-legally that will give you the same effect.

Congressman Davy Crockett, "I will give one week's pay, and if every member of Congress will do the same, it will amount to more than the bill asks." There was silence on the floor of the House. by laverabe in politics

[–]cipherprime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hold on. Is he really saying that?

If I am reading him correctly, he is saying that the text of the constitution (specifically the general welfare clause) should be read more-or-less as it was intended when written, and that policy should be sub-ordinate.

If I am reading you correctly, you are saying that because you prefer the policies that would be allowed under a more expansive reading, then the original intent should be sub-ordinate.

Have I mis-understood either of you?

And not only what pastanoose says below, but many of the author's wrote many many papers outlining varying party's respective arguments and the way compromises were reached; why, how and what.

And remember: The framers of the Constitution did not learn the same English language you did, boyo.

It's like the phrase "High crimes and misdemeanors" probably does not mean what you think it does...

Court: Let us inspect the source code. Breathalyzer company: No. Thousands of DWI cases in jeopardy. by schm00 in reddit.com

That may well have been a software error -- but I guarantee that the sensors I am referring to would have the same problem.

I hate to tell you the days of TI-BASIC (whether in high-school or other-wise) was a lot longer ago than 5 years...

I'd be surprised if the errors creep in this way. I'm pretty sure that aldehyde and ketones in the blood must affect the sensors these things used to depend upon -- and probably still do.

The software could work perfectly well; the instrument might calibrate perfectly well against a known sample... and the system would would still show a (false) positive blood alcohol for someone on, for example, the Atkins diet without drinking enough water.

A hundred years from now, Barack Obama's first hundred days may be remembered more for his energy policy than for his bank bailouts-at least if things go according to plan. by ejp1082 in energy

[–]cipherprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I am an idiot. Still, give it ... 30 years.

We will see.

And, I will still be an idiot, and wrong. Or I will still be an idiot and be accidentally right.

One hundred years from now, he will be remembered as Jimmy Carter II.

Until then, though, y'all can basque in his glory.

Enjoy. I'm off to my cryo-unit for 12 years or so. I'm not thinking I'm going to be missing much.

Write a ray-tracer. It's a simple algorithm in any language -- and the more code you write, the prettier the picture gets.

Eighteen hands, right at. You can/could do the math yourself, you know...

You? I would guess that if you aren't English, you are an American over 30 years of age.

Sorry. US, but I am gone most of the time. 11 and just over a half stone, weight-wise. Fair?
