Yes, quite. And to be totally pedantic, only 5MEO-DMT is active at 20mg. Oh, you'll notice 20mg of NN-DMT, but it really takes at least 50mg to get the whole effect.
I was thinking Ayuhuasca, but NN-DMT is also typically extracted from plant sources. 5MEO-DMT is usually synthesized (though it does occur in ayuhuasca and in yopo, the snuff used by the Yanomami Indians of Brazil.) The salvia I tried was 10x, meaning it was salvia leaf soaked in 10x extract. But salvia is also a notably persnickity drug who's effects vary greatly from individual to individual, so YMMV.
I used to grow medical marijuana for the cannabis club where I worked providing computer security. We were completely legit under California law. We provided free counselling for people with HIV, cancer, and Hepatitis, as well as harm-reduction programs for people using marijauna to help come off other drugs. We gave away free food every day. We were contacted by Laguna Honda, a federally funded hospital for people with deadly illness, and asked to provide cannabis to their patients with HIV. We had San Francisco city supervisors visit us and tell us what a great thing we were doing.
Growing cannabis indoors takes a great deal of power. We had a legitimate set up and payed about $800 a month in electricity for four 1000 watt lights. We even had local police inspect our grow room and give us the okay. People growing pot generally do not bypass a building's meter. That is a great way to get yourself busted. There are plenty of legitimate home businesses that use that much juice. Just tell the electric company that you make pottery and have an electric kiln.
It's a very dangerous way to get high. People die all the time. One dude even had to cut off his own arm. Same goes for riding motercycles. There's no reason for it, and it's dangerous. Eating fatty foods should be outlawed. Not excercising should be outlawed. Staying up too late should be outlawed. People who go to church live longer on average, so not going to church should be outlawed.
Anything that makes other people happy, but that I don't personally care for should be outlawed. All shortcuts to happiness should be outlawed, happiness should only come from hard work and abstinence./sarcasm
Of the three drugs you list, meth is probably the worst. I've met 60 year old heroin addicts. You'll never meet a 60 year old meth-head, they're all dead. Heroin is incredibly physically addictive, and when it gets to that point, users don't even get high anymore. But it generally does not kill except through overdose, which usually happens when someone quits for a while and starts back up again, forgetting that their tolerance has gone way down. Crack is no different than cocaine, really, meaning it can be very psychologically addictive but not all that dangerous.
Personally, I think the more dangerous drugs should require a user's license. Take a test, prove you know the dangers and techniques for mitigating them, and you can do them all you like.
Speaking as someone who has tried both salvia and DMT, I can say without a shred of doubt that salvia is NOT the most potent naturally occuring psychedelic substance known to man. Not by a long shot.
Have you ever taken a drink of alcohol in your life? Then you are a drug user. Marijuana is far less harmful than alcohol or tobacco. It's about on a par with coffee. Many other illegal drugs are similarly harmless to anyone who isn't completely prone to addiction. Hell, people get addicted to getting high on water. Should we make that illegal? Contrary to your view of drug users, most of them do not and will not end up killing themselves. Propaganda aside most are productive members of society.
Are you kidding? This is slashdot. The astroturfers will themselves have mod points within a week.
And mod each other into oblivion a day after that. Not that it would matter. Slashdot's mutant radioactive trolls have chunks of astroturfers like that in their stool.
It's okay to pee on any wire. The urine stream breaks up into individual droplets a foot or so away from the origin, so it won't conduct. Or so say Mythbusters, but God knows they aren't the most reliable folks. Perhaps you should try it out and get back to us to confirm or deny the Mythbusters conclusion?
Aw hell, that's funny and all, but you can just hold the metal part of the spark plug lead close to the engine block and turn the engine over. No spark? There's your problem. Weak orange or red spark? Bad coil. Fat blue spark? Obviously a fuel delivery or MAJOR timing problem.
But DC makes the heart muscle simply stop, which means it can start up again after the DC is off. AC fibrilates the heart, and a fibrilating heart has a hard time starting up again on its own.
and mod the GP down, he has it ass backwards and may actually end up killing someone with his idiotic misinformation. Mods, do you want that death on your hands? Get the right info out. kthxby
This theory buries the needle of my crackpot-o-meter. Grandiose claims: check. Delusions of persecution by mainstream science: check. Favorable comparison of the author to major science luminaries, suggesting they were on the right track, but not nearly as bright as the author: check. "Everything we know is wrong:" check. Creation of a whole new field of science out of whole cloth (plasma scientists?): check.
The theory is that stars don't make energy through nuclear fusion, but some wacky kind of electrical process. 'Nuff said.
What kind of geek wannabe would waste money on this? Nowhere on their site do they show benchmarks or even vague references to how much this will speed up your networking or FPS. Oooh! it offloads network processing, leaving your CPU free to PLAY THE GAME!!! That's probably going to speed things up by like.5%. AWESOME!!! TO THE MAX!!!
If there were equal access to information about everyone, it wouldn't hurt. If we knew every time anyone looked at our info, and why, no one could abuse their knowledge of us, because we and everyone else would know about it. That's one option. The other option is a freaky 1984 meets Brave New World society.
Privacy is not one of the options. It's either total openness or total control.
Can we just drop the lame "cue the so-and-so" posts? You are attempting to place yourself above the supposed sheeple who would post so-and-so, by copying a lame slashdot cliche. You aren't adding anything to the conversation. You are essentially saying "look at me! I'm so superior to the kind of people who would post so-and-so!" Well you aren't. You're just like them.
And you have managed to cover the whole damn spectrum, so anyone who posts anything "pro-isreal" or "pro-hezbollah" is now painted as a troll by your brush. Nice.

It is called hungary, how is that a troll?

And it's called Hungary, not Hungaria.
The alliterative allegations of an angry AI?

Or how about the quote halfway down?

'cause you know kids these days have no idea what you meant by that...
