@niclas Well said. Java has improved since your last work so I'm sure that was rather refreshing to see. I remember learning Java and realizing that despite all the shortcomings, Java is an amazing setup.

@thor They should make a commercial like the old Chromebooks where they destroy it and say just buy a new one. While it might seem to cause outrage, it's the solution they offer and many users wouldn't want to be bothered by anything more.

With Linux, one could do the same but it would require having one's own cloud.

@thor I'm glad you didn't get a test group and ask them in public. The data from their smart devices and IoT is for sale. Information collected from ISPs could be useful.

@thor Reading the changes to C++ and trying to use Rust.

Trying to find a usable FPGA.

Looking into the way RMS was set up by a University and the people who took advantage of the chaos to swap to less friendly licenses.

Trying to get a DSP to work with something that it should be useful for.

Wondering about cryptocurrencies with quantum computers becoming more readily available.

Looking into why an Xbox One hasn't been cracked yet the PS4 has been.

Trying to use a 3D printer to make a 3D printer to make a 3D printer.

Wondering why 3D printers are widely used when it is essentially a CNC mill and injection molded parts are stronger.

Just getting a 3D printer to work properly.

Getting an Amateur Radio License.

These are all ways to get a woman off the mind. I can't say they are positive.

@niclas For me it's the lessons learned along the way that are golden.

@freemo If you can find the time to do weight training, you won't have to worry about a diet. It will be fish, chicken, rice, vegetables and supplements.

Carolina Reapers have a good flavor that I would recommend over the ghost pepper. Unfortunately the spice goes away over time and it doesn't seem as tasty.

@freemo @lupyuen In the US, Vic's contains levomethamphetamine. Benzedrex contains Propylhexedrine which is not methamphetamine because the Cyclohexyl group is where a Phenyl group would be.

Ephedrine and Sudo Ephedrine are OTC after the government collects information. There's a Hydroxyl group in the 4 position that makes it not methamphetamine.

The former two are decongestants that I highly recommend but I doubt they are going to work well for Asthma. The latter two can be found in Ephedra Sinica or Ma Huang. The herb is used in TCM and has been used to treat asthma.

I think the best inhaler would contain Salbutamol or a similar molecule. Phenylephrine is used to treat priapisms by injecting a solution into a vein of the organ. If only congestion relief was as easy and convenient.
