  • Yea that’s a bit limites of a description. Tails is an OS you can run from a USB stick. It doesn’t keep data so when you reboot it’s like a fresh install. This makes it popular among people who buy/sell illicit goods, but it’s also very useful if you’re not in a safe location and don’t want your computer to incriminate you. Utilizing this with a VPN is one of the best ways to limit your digital footprint and tracking. It’s also highly inconvenient for day to day use, but when utilized properly it is one of the best options.

    I remember reading an article this year about a drug ring that got caught and shutdown because one of the leaders didn’t follow protocol and used a personal device to send a message. Now while I’m not advocating that kind of usage of this tool, I do believe it speaks volumes as to it being secure as this ring had existed for years prior.

  • Actually it’s worse than that, if you have enough unvaccinated people in an area you’ll increase the viral load received by the local population. Vaccines raise immunity significantly, but don’t make you fully immune. If you experience enough of a viral load despite being vaccinated you can still get sick. This is how outbreaks occur and why we’re seeing them in low vaccination communities. These viruses then spreads to others that shouldn’t normally get the virus. So in short it harms everyone including those vaccinated.


  • Because it’s a massive franchise. When you go into a Starbucks they want it to taste the same no matter where you get one. People are creatures of habit and it’s easier to get someone to get the same thing than it is to try out local shops wherever they go because it might be bad or too different from what they normally prefer. It’s one of the reasons fast food chains are / were very popular in the US. It’s not about the quality, it’s about the consistency


  • Not really if you look into the literature. There were several studies done at Stanford and several hundred thousand people that took it for fat loss and less than 100 deaths from what I’ve seen. Also, a majority of those deaths were from suicide, which is both a sad thing and a terrible way to go. The deadly dose was about 5-6x the normal dose. There was a case of a girl ODing on it to get ready for spring break and I believe she was around 10x the standard dose. Note dosage is based off body weight.

    Now there are other issues that can occur because of the MoA it causes you to burn through zinc and magnesium. There are thyroid issues that can occur, as well as the possibility of cataractics. Then there’s the proton slip and electron leakage within the mitochondria. This is what causes a majority of the problems as it’s a positive feedback loop for negative cascades. That can be almost entirely negated by keeping dose lower and doing your cardio. It can be done safely if you know what you’re doing but most people aren’t that reasonable.

    Someone wrote an interesting book on it and took more of a conspiracy standpoint on it claiming it could be effective fat loss but because it was cheap and easy it would cut into big pharma making money. Can’t say I agree with everything in the book but there was some useful information.

    There’s also a newer compound called BAM-15. In research it’s more effective at fat loss and can be taken at much higher doses safely. I believe they got up to 20x the dnp standard dose without negative side effects in the lab rats.


  • I found the pacing of the first book to be too slow for me as well. The first one or two stories were properly paced in my opinion, but then it felt sluggish. That being said, the show makes a few changes to the story and it doesn’t change the story overall, but it does give a more action feel to it rather than a slow mysterious dystopian drama.
