      Yes. I guess there's no hope for better education shifting the scales then?

      Shouldn't it mean people like us would be well off in life if we didn't have debilitating ailments though?
      I'd like to think there's something positive to be gleaned from it all.

      We can only speculate what might happen if more people were educated. The original topic was large tech companies manipulating dumb consumers. I don't think it requires much intelligence to understand the concept of owning a computer or renting one. I do not consider myself a smart person.

      Yeah. It seems reasonable that regular people would see the difference between paying a subscription as opposed to owning a piece of software with a one-time payment.

      On the gaming side I've seen a lot of backlash about Google's Stadia-service. What with it not being like Netflix but with games instead of movies and shows.

      no they aren't. They are docile about software as a service. They'll pay because they don't have a choice. The cloud is marketed as an advantage for portability since normies are always on the go. Big tech doesn't want you to know how a computer functions under the hood. They want you to view it as a magic box that sells stuff by revenue regenerating from advertisements.


      I'm the kind of person that is obsessed with owning digital copies of software and digital media I enjoy. I hate that idea of digital restrictions and enjoy finding ways to resolve them to make me feel like a l33t haxor. SAAS makes it's impossible to work around proprietary and DRM shit. Windows is going to be obsolete and replaced by Microsoft's future cloud OS which will make the entire win32 userland as a service for those who subscribe. Mac OSX is literally a digital prison from day one. Linux is still a limited tool. Linux has fundamental flaws and a childish community that scares away developers and ex windows users. They also got cucked by Google using their own kernel to destroy their own values.

      Windows will be using cloud based apps, and a paid service within atleast 10 years. They are already making a minature version of Windows to compete with Chromebook.

      I am about to try DHEA. I'm also on lithium and curcumin and EGCG sometimes.

      Hope I don't die :)

      I’d be careful with those green tea extracts. They can cause liver damage if you take just a little too much.

      Why don’t you get your EGCG through Green Tea or Matcha? IIRC a cup of green tea has 60-80mg and Matcha around 180-200mg. At least through diet you won’t run the risk of hurting your liver. I’ve been drinking it for years. I honestly wonder if it’s what helped my tinnitus go away as much as it has.

      Hello Heinrich, I ran out of the cases of green tea I bought at costco and I'm no longer a member. Is there a brand you recommend? Thanks

      Hey! No problem asking me at all.

      I only get my EGCG from Green Tea and Matcha Green Tea. I’ve never used extracts for the very real side effect of liver and kidney damage.

      If you want EGCG, I’d recommend you use raw leaves and steep the green tea or use Matcha powder in a mixing bowl with hot water and whisk it the old fashioned way.

      DO NOT USE BAGGED GREEN TEA. It has nowhere close to the same amount of antioxidants as the raw leaves. I am from Canada and I get my leaves from David’s Tea.

      Never thought of doing that myself, purchasing the leaves. I did read once, on the farms which grow the shrubs, they keep a caldron of fresh leaves going all day to drink from and the workers are very healthy. I'm going to take your advice. Thanks for this. (now searching David's Tea or an equivalent raw leaf in US)

      Edit: so many to choose from. I'd like to find fresh raw leaves with oils and all. Whatever is most potent, IDK.... (maybe matcha powder?)

      I prefer deuce bag as opposed to doofus, but cheers for that.
      I've decided to write three letters a week to politicians, rich people, and newspapers promoting our cause, plight, and need for a cure.

      If I can do one a day, that will be better. I will record all the folks I have written to.
      I will keep you guys posted if anybody is interested.

      Pg.14, Three most evil men in history.
      It will make you chuckle.
