Tell me what you know about Delta-8 THC

Good morning, Dallas
I wasn’t differentiating… my point was as a reminder,
a learning moment… Plus I had great indepth article.
Some of our older people may not be as knowledgeable on the lightening speed, greed and the extent of the information amassed, stored, saved, and analyzed.

Hopefully your not mad at me. my apologies if content wasn’t appropriate.

My posting style is similar to playing chess, and storytelling. My brain also goes to fast…

Anyway, have a nice Sunday and stay safe/

Regard, Stephanie

I understand, I was grrr. Ok… Nevermind.

That was a [privet message to Pk, was supposed to be. I was answering his question.

It wasn’t supposed to be a reply to the thread this whatever the topic is…

Hey, I hear ya. Potent stuff.

@ Wesley Clark the mods and everyone

‘This new frontier of digital surveillance raises questions about how the United States will incorporate data technology into its own politics and economy. This article argues that the U.S. needs a comprehensive nationwide data protection framework that places limits on surveillance by both private business’'.

Think back to the dumbest things you’ve said, written, maybe you bullied, or sent unmentionables unsolicited, maybe illegal.

All your dumb, embarrassing info, pics, and Verizon has a recording of you 21 years ago. Per the NSA recorded and saved it.

You were ordering endangered sea turtles from someone in the Caribbean and had been a regular customer for 4 years. Then you because a procurer of sea turtles and endangered tropical. fish. You gotta launder that money, No taxes were paid.

Then in the year 2024 this AI net worked super computer that is a
bunch of AI quantum processing Sherlock Holmes x a bunch. The be;l and whistles go off.

Boom,. Welcome to the New Digital Frontier. Promises were made, laws were made. You believed your government, Haven’t we heard this before? Edward Snowden told us, He was NSA.

It might not happen,.

Ya know, maybe an indica would be better for you. Some people get all racy and trippy from too much sativa.

Coffee, don’t need it! I need more coffee

And a recent investigation by The New York Times demonstrated that a location data company can track senior government and security officials, including the President, through their cell phone pings. When combined with publicly available records, these location data can reveal intimate details of the officials and their families (Thomson and Warzel 2019). Even data that are supposed to be anonymous can easily be de-anonymized and used to reveal characteristics of the subjects, such as their political and religious views (Narayanan and Shmatikov 2006).

There’s no guarantee that restricting your location sharing settings will prevent these companies from tracking your location because there’s no way to know which apps are abusing their privileges (well, other than weather apps). The only way to be certain it’s not happening would be to turn off location services entirely, but that would severely reduce the utility of the iPhone. Even setting every app to Never would be problematic, eliminating Maps and Google Maps, Lyft and Uber, and photo geotagging in all camera apps. That’s why we recommend the approach above—everyone’s level of concern will differ, and only you can determine how perturbed you are by this tracking.

Go read the Times article and the additional pieces that the paper has published.

They have been already doing this per the above article. ‘Famous’ people too. The new build back better green deal outlines upcoming changes to sociaty.

I was a beta tester with several large technology companies. Some of the projects are wonderful for humanity. As I see it, it will depend on which organization, government, media, law enforcement decide, WHAT the company, the government, corporate media, law enforcement, government’s long term goal is.

I’m reminded of a great line from the movie, Real Genius:

The scene (2min 12sec) is great. The relevant (?) line is at 1:45:

When I can’t sleep I make a cup of coffee and smoke a ciggerette. I literally by the 3rd sip a puff or 2 I put out the cigarette. Maybe one or 2 more sips of coffee. I am totally relaxed

7-8 minutes. My theory is your day is done, except your mind is already into tomorrow.

I’m positive that the ritual of
picking that special cup… the aroma, the sound of quiet solitude. You just enjoying, just relaxing. Doing what you want and that’s Ok.

It is like you are giving yourself permission to relax and it’s ok.

I once took a low dose delta 8 edible, and had the greatest trip I’ve ever had on any drug.

It was like I took the most potent anti-anxiety med and the most potent anti-depressant I’ve ever tried at the same time. I just laid in bed smiling and listening to music. It was awesome. subjectively it was one of the best experiences of my life.

however most trips are garbage on Delta 8. A lot of the time it just makes me sleepy.

Question: What is the physical difference between Delta-8 THC and Delta-9 THC? Are they separate plants or are they grown on the same one?

Delta-8 is derived from the same plants as Delta-9 THC and CBD. CBD is extracted from the plants and synthesized into Delta-8.

What is delta-8? | Leafly Leafly is a good source of all info regarding pot. Types, strains, sources, etc.

Delta-8 is found in trace amounts in cannabis and hemp plants, and as hemp is legal to grow anywhere in the US and more readily available, the cannabinoid is often sourced from that.

Commonly, CBD is extracted from hemp and refined into an isolate, and then CBD isolate is synthesized into delta-8. As such, delta-8 requires more processing and is more expensive to make than CBD, but this increased production cost is balanced out by the high demand for it.

Great link. Thanks.
