  1. Id say these laws are unfair though the Netherlands has one such law about sex with non adults (that is one of the few times i find such laws acceptable) Then there are some tax laws but that is always difficult to talk about.. But that is about it one for the rest the laws of the country your in apply. But your right you either accept them or not. I don't accept them and I don't like those places so I wont visit. I don't need weed or anything so i could easily not use. GF went back to SG afraid a bit as she used some cannabis weeks ago. (she is an expat living here just returning for work). Now the people from SG were informed about this and its known. So she took it into account. I talked with some people from SG. Its just an oppressive government they cant get rid off because the opposition is <deleted>. Plus they did make good economic headway. But most people from SG found it stupid that their country tries to tell them what to do and not to do outside their country.
  2. It was an reaction on an off topic reaction about testing at the workplace. Anyway of course you can't get away from testing in other countries. Its just a really bd thing that SG and Malaysia are doing this. Because the offence was not comitted in their country. Unless the offence is having traces of canabis in your system instead of usage in their country. Anyway unreasonable laws but even though I have a SG GF its more reason never to go there. I dont like it there and this is crazy. Just like it is in Malaysia. If i had to go there id make sure not to use anything for a few weeks. However the fact that they are that extreme makes me not want to go there.
  3. Don't sweat it some on this forum only have limited education and IQ. They cann't seem to understand and use reason and read through articles. If they don't agree they will just say they don't without proof. They will place crying smilies everywhere. Its hard to debate with people like that.
  4. That is a different story and not what they are talking about. They are talking about people who are not stoned but just have it in their system. SO they are going after people who are not under the influence but have used it in a country where it is legal. That is not really a good law.
  5. Indeed i would not work anywhere where they tell me what to do in my private time. That is the benefit of being educated you can choose where you work. But i do 100% agree that it should not impact your job so if Sunday drunk or stoned. Then work good at Monday or if not then yea sure fire them if it happens a lot. As i stated not effect work. I am an employer myself. As long as my employees work good i don't care if they drink or use drugs in their free time. But when it compromises work its an other thing. Its a bit hard for you to understand that many can drink and use drugs without problems.
  6. Singapore has said it wil go after Singaporeans who use drugs in Thailand. (another crazy country). Trying to dictate what you do in a country where the laws are different. Anyway don't go into those countries, i for sure would not go if i have used can stay quite long in your system depending on how often you use.
  7. I would not work there, thankfully i got option having a good education and all. Besides the country where I come from its an unheard invasion of privacy. I am not from an old fashioned country with outdated druigs laws. Though we got a glaring mistake in our law concerning cannabis. I am all for making sure that employees are not high or drunk when working. But dictating that they can't do legal stuff outside of work is crazy. I bet you would not talk this way if it included alcohol. Shows the mentality. (im talking about legal drugs in a country and outside of working hours no effect on work)
  8. I would only accept drug tests if alchol tests and liver tests would be done fair is fair. No weed but alcohol is no problem is crazy. Anyway If you work somewhere where you cant use drugs id leave. That is if they are talking about use in free time and the drug is legal in that country. Drugged or drunk on work is never ok.
  9. All the better I got nothing against drinking though not a big fan give me pot any day (though i would not drive on either). But people who are under the influence of anything and drive are the worst. Selfish people putting others at risk. Punishment for those should be really high especially if they wound or kill someone.
  10. Drunk drivers that kill or wound people should be put in jail mandatory. Drinking and driving just does not mix. Before someone says it.. drugs and driving also dont mix and same applies.
  11. This is on UK ground and it was not the French who asked but the port Dover. Anyway if you don't know anything about it its better to remain silent. This is again your own fault and like always your politicians blame others. You politicians are fast beginning to be the laughingstock of the world.
  12. I wonder how realistic this is, i mean this is crazy. Taking arms up against the government. Are they sore election losers or what ? I mean Trump did not do much good with inciting the public. What a mess hope its less bad then it sounds.
  13. Eh the people on twitter and this Brit expert all claim its the UK and it is. I mean how stupid are you you union and become a third country and expect the things to stay the same. It does not and then they French ask for funding for dover gets shot down and now they are complaining. Of course the ProBrexit press will claim its the French, the are a bunch of wingers. I mean there is no factual evidence at all. The guy in the twitter feed explains it quite nicely. He is a respected Brit so you can't disqualify it this time on your narrow view that its a not Brit. Get over the fact that you guys shot yourself in the foot and now are making fools of yourself. Its looks nice in the press but factually its again a lie. This article totally ignores the fact that the French asked for funding to solve this problem ahead of problems but it was shot down. Plus not mentioned. Maybe the news should be a bit more even but i guess that is too much to ask.
  14. Why dont they ban the dangerous alcohol first the room that that frees up in hospitals should be more then adequate. (tongue in cheek) Anyway of course this should be kept away from kids, same goes for alcohol. Just set a minimum age for use. Is that so hard. Nobody ever says canabis is good for kids or good at all. Just less damaging als alcohol. But the fact they set nu rules for minimum age is stupid. But let adults decide and split this from the legalization issue. Because even people who are pro legalizing it dont want kids to use it.
  15. Been following this whole thing a bit on twitter I was suprised how many people from the UK thought it was madness that they left the EU and how they said what the hell were the leavers thinking. Plus a lot about Brit self importance. One noted Brexit been in our newspapers all the time, but if you look at other countries it does not make the news anymore. While in the UK they keep suggesting that other countries are punishing them. While nobody in the other countries really cares (hence no longer news). They say that a lot of people they talk with have almost forgotten it or shrug and just laugh at the self inflicted damage. The self importance part does show as the UK stated how the EU would colapse after they left. But it seems the only one suffering is the UK why else does Brexit and its problems come up all the time and it does not in come up in other EU countries in their newspapers. Just funny how some people think its all done to anoy them. The fact is even if the French wanted to add extra people there is no room. The Brits shot down a funding for this. So all this is self inflicted but all the UK politicians ever do is blame others. Its like the whole world is out to get them.(in their eyes).
  16. Was Blair not a PM someone who was voted in. I mean then its your (as in UK) problem not an EU problem. Everything your representatives voted for or agreed for is not something the EU is responsible for but your own people.
  17. They were not thinking they were catering to nationalists and lying through their teeth. If the present has taught us anything that is that BJ probably lied all the time to the public about the deal. How easy it was and how much they would make. He did it all to stay in power have a big deed to remember and cover up the faults UK politicians. Much of what they accused the EU of was just things they agreed too themselves and then blamed the EU when they had to implement the policies they agreed too. Its not unique in the UK seen it happen in the Netherlands too, agreeing to stuff and then when its time to execute blame the EU. Just typicial politicians that don't want to admit they were wrong to agreeing to something or did not understand what they agreed too. Its always easier to shift the blame and make the EU look guilty. Same is happening again BJ agreed to the deal and now is having second thoughts as he cant sell it at home and is playing the victim threatening to break it open.
  18. Ill look if i have that i know i got one of those home pro metric ones too. Thanks all the help everyone.
  19. 1/8 alen is too big 7/64 is too small
  20. You could say that I tried all those
  21. Maybe not torq but an other socket. I tried these too
  22. I checked all my tools and cant find it. Is this size available ? I need to remover a screw from a reel and T20 is too big and T15 is too small. I used all of my set (4!!) of different keys and none fit even Imperial as the reeel is US made. Does anyone have an idea or link.
  23. The point is you have no proof, the pages i visited say there is really limited study done and nowhere does it say that the enhanced version is so much better. There are maybe a handful of studies that is not the proof that you think it is. Most of these studies were on animals not humans. Plus there has never been proof that your enhanced state is better. That is what you and lot of people like you make of it. You act like we know a lot about this process, yet your own nobel price winner says this Autophagy research is still at an early stage, and our understanding of the physiological role of autophagy in particular is only in its infancy. (got this from the site on Yoshinori Ohsumi) How can you make such bold statements as the enhanced version is better while we are still in its infancy. The thing is you make claims the Nobel prize winner would never have made. Could please link where a study between normal occuring autophagy and enhanced version is compared ? I would be willing to read that. I keep saying the same thing your in an echo chamber and are suffering from confirmation bias. I did not start typing about this without before reading several sources. All claiming that there has been minimal study on humans (certainly not a long term study on people who fast and those who don't when autphagy is concerned). So how can you claim all those things when the studies and your prime example say its in its INFANCY. So how can you when even science sites and your famous Dr Ohsumi all say its in its infancy and that studies are lacking make such huge claims. Sorry but I have no more interest in discussing this until you stop making things up that are not proven. Yoshinori Ohsumi (its in its infancy) Government clinical trials (human studies are lacking) Waverunner.. this is the new miracle and everyone should do it See the difference between those scientists and you ?
  24. First of you come with a lot of B.S. without proof again going into the miracle of fasting. If I did not know you better id think you were starting a new religion. That something happens under a microscope is about the same proof as the guy who said that vit C wil help you lose weight. Your looking at things from a microscope instead of seeing the whole thing. You been duped by your own research. Your much touted autophagy happens automatic and without fasting (oops bummer whole theory shot) Plus its not only fasting its even exercise and caloric restricton... did you not say caloric restrictions did not work ? So all that B.S about autophagy and the need for fasting is shot out of the water. There are many ways to get auophagy. https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/signs-of-autophagy#Precautions As for your amount of carbs i have seen no research backing that up. You pull a lot B.S out of ... i dont know where. Same like your autophagy acting like fasting is the only way while it happens all the time. Your totally trapped in your own echo chamber only looking for proof not widening your search.
