    "what we see here is an association between cannabis and paranoia. Experts generally agree that regular use of cannabis starting from an early age is an accurate predictor of later severe mental health problems, but what hasnâ(TM)t been established is whether the drug causes paranoid thoughts. Maybe people suffering from paranoia are more likely to start taking cannabis; or perhaps the drug use and the suspicious thoughts are independent consequences of another factor entirely"- from your 2014 paper link...

    Australia, of all places, developed a roadside saliva swab for thc levels. But most of our prisons are for profit...... So that's why you never heard of such things.... They don't want you to know. Being weed paranoid has kept alot of potheads out of jail. And then there's dumb fucks who shouldn't be allowed to have any thc due to lack of functioning brain cells.

  9. yarr, blame the pirates on The FSF's Campaign Against the Nintendo 3DS · · Score: 0

    Nintendo and makers of games for the DS line lost out on billions of dollars to easier-then-windows flashcarts. This kind of user monitoring is what they came up to combat that, I for one don't care at all if they know how long i use what software on my 3DS. Sure there are thousands of other uses for this hardware brewing out there already and thats all fine and dandy, just expect to loose the ability to use any official software. This is something I can almost agree with, but in the future we could say get debian running on one, I'd buy another one for my non-nintendo use. I see most of the data they record being used for marketing purposes internally at nintendo, and they've been doing it a long time. So I don't really mind my 3DS phoning home unless its going to include what websites I went to on the browser, than I might have to limit its usage.

    The point: You can only connect with people you accept to a list. If you feel the need to press that said button, someone else probably thinks that about you.
