Buddhist sects as a whole are not exception, but I couldn't find an example of violence at "its inception". All the examples I could find are from much later.

That was perpetrated by Buddhist nationalists in Myanmar, whos actions are so fargone from traditional Buddhist teachings they can safely be considered not Buddhists IMO.

Buddhism was probably 10% the justification for nationalism that Shinto was in Japan, so that's a pretty bad example.

Also, using Buddhism to encourage nationalism ≠ Buddhisms fault

I can't speak to non-English results, and I agree Startpage is just a Google proxy.

Bangs are essential, especially if you use DDG HTML, which doesnt have tabs for different kinds of searches

Ddg results are pretty horrible in my experience. Statpage (google results) and brave search both have better results.

I agree, open source games are designed with fun in mind instead of attention grabbing garbage and ads.

ruTorrent makes rtorrent a lot more usable if you dont like the CLI.

I'm aware that they're different. Chromium is a much better option that Chrome, but not a good option overall for privacy. If you like Chromium, try UnGoogled Chromium!

Chromium bundles a lot of google telemetry into it, even though it is the open source base of Chrome. Ungoogled Chromium is a recommendation that's actually private. I also only use Chromium for websites that have issues.

mpv works flawlessly for me if frontends aren't working.

According to the founder of the website, Brave's developers have implemented changes specifically targetting issues on this site, and thats why they're rated so highly. I believe if you look back to older releases of the test, you'll see Brave not doing nearly as well.

I dont think I can take that article seriously when they recommend Chromium with uBlock as an alternative 💀

That's common slang

Ban lifted trucks!!

LMAO I totally agree, and very valid point with the medical use, I only use recreationally so I hadnt even thought of that angle.

The consequence is that those lazy buyers are shaping the markets in a lot of states towards producing as much "high for the low" as possible.

Its MUCH less about numbers and details than it is about the entorage effect. From my understanding, the entorage effect is a change in how you perceive the high depending on what kind of terpenes are present in the strain / phenotype.

For example, a really terpy, stinking strain with low THC% could produce a better high (for you) than a high THC flower with less / unideal (for you) terps. In my experience, THC% has little to no effect on how the bud actually hits, and is just juiced up as marketing lingo.

Put simply, and I know this is vague, but experiment and find what terpenes / flavor profiles you like, you'll find similarities in high between strains that have similar terps (i.e., knowing you really like lemon strains, citrus strains, etc.) Then buy what fits your tastes!

EDIT: I agree with WhiteOakBayou, its about finding the terps for you.

THC potentcy means almost nothing, and anyone who takes that number into account is being a lazy consumer.

In one ear types response, out the other. 👍

Lmao, misunderstanding a point to the highest possible degree 💀
