AMD hides Taiwan branding on Ryzen CPU packaging as it preps new chips for China market release — company uses black sticker to erase origin information
  • Taiwan's official stance is such only because China’s Anti-secession law promises war if Taiwan changes its name from the old “Republic of China” (since 1911) to “Republic of Taiwan”. RoC was never affiliated with communist China (PRC), but martial law era ruling party KMT first threatened to retake China and then diluted the plan into “reunification” and cozied up with China. Taiwanese people never agreed with KMT’s hubris or sucking-up, which shows in voting results since the martial law ended.

  • Greedy rich distracting us with culture war to avoid a class war. Russia, China, North Korea trying to sow discord. Conclusion: Make lying illegal. Tax billionaires to extinction to avoid societal collapse.

    What part of your life could be improved with software?
  • Realign monetary incentives by making users pay for the quality of the match. If you want more of the good, pay for what you rate as good in the previous matches. Pay more the longer you stay together with a match.

    The matching system was already almost perfect at OkCupid around ten years ago - copy that, and the well-aligned incentive should keep it developing instead of degrading, which is what Match Group did to it with their monthly subscription that incentivizes preventing long-term relationships.

  • Do elaborate. Don't you believe there are significant differences between strains caused by psychoactive compounds other than THC? https://herbceo.com/cannabis-terpenes-101/

    Ok so coffee is made from coffee beans. And beans are *also* made from beans. Why is nobody making, like, black bean coffee?
  • I drank it in Taiwan among other very low sugar juices that I prefer over plain water. It's just one of many drinks made from ingredients we never thought of, like mushroom drinks and cereal grain drinks. The bean drink must have been forgettable enough that I can't describe the taste after four years away.

  • Not suggesting, only speculating, but it seems pure CBD should be easily available (it is here), and psycho-weeds should be at the other end of the limit spectrum. Maybe "extra bad for teenage brains" on the packet of those strains in addition to the age limit. Or it could be a gene test, assuming it was known which genes interact badly with which molecules.

  • THC percentage in isolation means nothing - if it did, you could easily use less, like you don't chug booze like it's beer. The problem is the disturbing ratio of THC to the many other contents, especially the anti-psychotic CBD.

    It's easy not to pack the bowl full of the strong weed, but it has become hard to avoid the strains that make me paranoid and probably drive a teenager to psychosis.

    The solution is to legalize and mandate warnings on the packaging, and other safety measures such as different age limits on different strains.
