Power, Domain Name (if using a standard paid one instead of the cheaper route), VPN are the 3 that I pay for that I feel are the bare minimum.

I pay for a domain that’s $12, but you could easily get the $1 ones for the same purposes. I pay for a static and service VPN with Windscribe, which comes out to be like $35+$89 respectively. So that’s already $136 a year excluding the cost of power. I could cut that cost easily, but I use them for more than just my selfhosting so I feel like it’s a fair price for what I get out of it.

Sorry

I just want people to be able to compete if they use cannabis. But you’re right that it would likely devolve lol

That’s too bad, I’ve always liked Tails. Was lucky that it ran on a mid 2012 MacBook Pro, but the non-working hardware list is pretty large. Some people prefer Qubes and Whonix anyway

I was just reading a couple weeks ago about a smaller web project. Lemme see if I can find it

Edit: here it is, https://kbin.social/m/selfhosting@slrpnk.net/t/476826/What-is-the-Small-Web

I personally run Tails OS as a daily driver. Not only does it keep others safe, but it keeps me from tracking my own online presence.

I did attempt it a bit but I was having issues. Definitely the way I’m trying to go though!

I’m wondering how it goes with online game for instance (wouldn’t it be a no-go for many casual users?

I’ve wondered the same honestly. I’m able to connect to servers, never been an issue, but if I want to host my own game server it’s only available locally and no ports are ever exposed (understandably, since they don’t exist lol). Been a real hassle that’s for sure!

I’d be interested in a networking section. My biggest hurdle in self-hosting is that my ISP uses CG/NAT, so no port forwarding. This has made even simple applications difficult to set up. It seems the easiest workaround is to set them up through a domain, which I’ve tried and had no luck with. A mix of not my forte and there being few straightforward guides.

Previously by color/occupation.

Red Desktop, Music Workstation.

Been thinking themes more recently though. WolvesDen for my server, thinking of expanding on that some.

Normally I catch them but these slipped past me!

Whoops! Made a comment on the wrong spot, sorry about that. Glad to see it’s not prevalent for every phone!

Here are the services that were on my Xperia 1IV

Glad to share, I just hope it’s something that helps users and screws over Meta, if even just a little.

Sorry for the poor phrasing on my part, as others clarified Vanced was killed and ReVanced came along but I haven’t liked it as much and have been wanting to move away from MicroG services anyway.

ReVanced still lives and works great! I just have been slowly moving to Piped and LibreTube connects right to my account there, so it just made sense for me to make the move over.

My mistake, can’t believe I forgot to include it! Sony Xperia 1IV, standard issue.

FWIW I don’t think I bought mine from a carrier, I bought it direct from Sony (thought that’s kind of just a stepping stone away). It was pretty light on bloatware, but Facebook was preinstalled and is eternally in the package list (adb aside of course :D)

Your body feels hungover because you were taking something that your body was using and then you stopped providing it. That’s not really a hangover so much as a previous source of nutrition that’s no longer being had!

Taking CBD compounds helps start and regulate our endocannabinoid system which helps with chronic nerve pain, gastrointestinal issues, issues with insomnia, mood, and anxiety.

Basically, it’s not like you were taking some acetaminophen for a headache to literally stop you from feeling its presence. It’s still there, regardless of the medication or not. It’s more like you were taking something that acted as a muscle relaxant, which removed the pressure from the thing preventing the headache from happening in the first place.

I think the important distinction here is the percentages of THC present with whatever you’re taking.

If you and @danielton are just talking about getting stoned with cannabis, well yeah it’s going to get you high.

If you guys are talking about taking CBD compound supplements with THC present, that’s very different. THC at low percentages have little to no actual psychoactive effects (talking sub 10% which is way higher than any CBD-specific product can legally be sold as). THC only acts as a catalyst in this fashion.

CDB, CBG, CBC, and CBN, which all occur in different stages of degradation of the THC and CBD compound molecules. CBN is one of the last stages of degradation of THC and is associated with the almost-narcoleptic like sleep and is generally responsible for times that weed knocks you out, which is what I’m guessing happens for you! Not to be one of those vocal enjoyers, moreso highlighting the science behind why you felt the way you have with various strains. It’s certainly the high doses of THC affecting you, but without any CBD compounds there’s nothing to ease the THC.

It’s similar to how we can take an NSAID and an analgesic. Of course we can just have one or the other to get the specific effect, but taking them combined delivers a wider range of effects that go beyond what they were originally meant for. edit The difference is that we have an endocannabinoid system that’s meant to be active and using these theoretically helping prevent the issues in the first place - whereas NSAID and analgesics something we take as a suppressive.

On the other hand, I’ve had friends swear by CBD tinctures. They were doing large doses (like 50mg+) daily and claimed it had all sorts of benefits for their chronic pain or upset stomach.

That’s because their endocannabinoid system is actively in use, unlike people who do not take CBD supplements. We metabolized CBD very well and our bodies will use it when it’s there, so for a lot of people taking CBD they need to jump-start the endocannabinoid system to start processing it.

Often times people will take 1000mg for the first week (or two), then cut that in half to 500mg, then in half for until you are down to 50mg or 15mg doses. Normally we’d have been getting our CBD compounds from the things we eat that eat hemp, something that was prevalent as a feed in the U.S. and is still prevalent in other countries (Nepal, for example). However since we stopped using hemp, animals stopped passing on CBD compounds to us and here we are today with a society full of symptoms of a non-working endocannabinoid system (and well, signs of lead poisoning but lets just move past that…) which include - chronic nerve pain, gastrointestinal issues, issues with insomnia, mood and anxiety. You know, everything that we attribute to just the daily struggles of society today.

Of course, they most likely are just that, but it seems pretty crazy to me that we have a whole system in our body that is essentially on the backburner with very high correlation to many of the health problems.

Just remember, don’t be afraid of THC. They need each other to work effectively, and THC doesn’t have to mean high. Obviously, if it’s a legality issue that’s a different story, but in regards to an edible that has >5% or uses the letters LOC then don’t even think about it for a second - it’s fine. Think of its present as the catalyst for the reaction.

I refer to them as the CBD compounds. Like you said, these work with the entourage effect and so having just one isn’t nearly as effective as getting the full, or at least a wider, spectrum.
