Research shows a strong link between retained primitive reflexes and symptoms of ADHD like fidgeting and an inability to concentrate. Reflexes are unconscious muscle movements that happen in response to certain stimuli. For instance, if you touch a hot stove, your body jerks your hand away automatically.
I'm providing my experience trying to game with windows-based friends.
Durban Poison is high in THCv which is a cannabinoid that acts like a stimulant, and it does effect people with ADHD similarly.
Today, hemp farmers are growing THCv and CBDv dominant strains, such as Forbidden V, Eraser V and fruit sourz.
I have hundreds of games in steam. Some had poor or broken play with games Windows users play together without issues.
I think this community is a bit defensive. I have hundreds of games in my steam library that I play. A large number with multiplayer, I have had issues with my windows friends.
Most recently the pain in the ass games have been AoE4, and BeamMP. AoE4 crashes in muliplayer, there is a patch for that crash on protondb, but it seems I'm also impacted by an AMD related bug that happens intermittently and will restart X at a random times specifically due to playing AoE4. Tried various kernels and video cards, still crashes.
BeamMP, looks like a lot of people have this issue, some have been able to resolve it.
Civ6 used to have stability issues, the Linux client is a joke, I use the proton version because it's more stable.
We're gonna act like Bronze doesn't mean broken sometimes? Okay.
This is the sort of honest discourse we should be having in the community. The recent advances are nothing short of amazing, and I can play tons of great games with my windows friends, but there are some games, that left me, and sometimes them with terrible experiences.
Nothing like investing over an hour into a game with friends only to crash due to some Linux specific issue.
Ummm, I say that because I'm the friend in the friend group where the games don't work sometimes, and I'm not going to pretend like that isn't the case simply because I'm a FOSS advocate.
I own a steam deck, I have decades of experience with Linux as a Desktop, server, and even some years doing game development, so it's not for a lack of effort.
It's undoubtedly a fact that some mainstream games don't work at all, or well enough that you'll play seamlessly with your windows friends. Even protondb admits hundreds of outright borked games. Being dishonest about this does more harm than good.
It's amazing what Steam, Valve, AMD, etc, have done recently for Linux gaming, but it's not the YotLD yet.
Great, but I can still only realistically play a portion of my library with friends on Windows.
I doubt the teacher's union has the resources of the church. Nor do they have the time-tested global systematic approach to abusing children, unless common core gotcha mad.
Sorry that by release 1.6 it's too much for me to expect not to see duplicate NPCs inside the diner, one of them standing through the table.
AAA game, big money, big disappointment.
Worth it on sale to play through once.
Sunken cost fallacy for some.
I bought it, I enjoyed it enough, part of that enjoyment was the bugs that enabled me to amass tons of cash.
I'm not going to tell myself they delivered the product as promised.
What they did was scummy, what they still do is scummy.
- The game is eye candy and the story is decent
- It doesn't feel like a AAA game
- The bugs are embarrassing, duplicate NPCs down to the outfits, walking through solid objects, terrible vehicle physics, mission breaking bugs.
- They are selling DLC.
Fuck CDPR.
I have a mini shower head diffuser bong, and it's alright, but I heard a recyclers is better at preserving flavor. Does anyone have suggestions for where to find a good looking recycler for dry herb vaping that doesn't break the bank?
Been using the Brilliant Cut Grinder as my main driver recently.
Right, well even though San Diego might have state park beach front property, we shouldn't have a tent city filling it up. This quickly becomes unhygienic, and crime rises, among other issues.
My humble start to vaping. I outgrew this device pretty quickly, but it's not bad for $100, and it showed me a better world than combustion.
And for that, I'm thankful.
Also gerrymandering
I own 3 grinders, a cheapo off Etsy that's inefficient and gets gunked up quickly, a BCG and. Flower Mill.
To my own surprise, I end up using the Flower Mill the most. I bought it because I was skeptical.
I'm gonna be honest. The feeling you get from the Flower Mill when the magnet gentle pulls the flower in as you roll it around os EXTREMELY satisfying. Endorphin rush.
BCG is a champ obviously and can cut through anything, but it's ripping your herb vs rolling.
I haven't don't any bro science experiments to see while smokes better. I imagine with less of a fine grind I'm missing out on a little, but it is worth it.
Mighty+ is a great session vape if you want to kill a few bowls back to back while watching a video or something.
I usually use it with type 3 and 4 bud.
Glass mouthpiece from Vgoodiez.
Only 2 Republicans voted against corruption. Way to go, Texas!
Some things to consider
- Budget
- Portable or Desktop
- Battery operated or analog (using Torch or Induction Heater)
- Ripper (on-demand) or sipper (session)?
- Convection / Conduction / Hybrid
For battery powered:
Tinymight 2 is my current favorite vape for its size, speed, power, ecosystem. I can use it with my water pipe and rip it like a bong, or hit it dry through a j hook, etc. There is a very small learning curve.
Mighty+ is a good session vape that is consistent and reliable. There is no learning curve. You need to be ready to commit to 3 minute session of slowly sipping on it. It is a great vape as a session vape, but if you're looking to take a hit or two do stuff for a few hours and repeat, TM2 all the way. It's large, but that's because it has 2 batteries and a screen. The crafty+ is the little sibling with one battery, no screen.
POTV Xmax v3 is okay for the price point, but if you spend a little more, you can get a better class vape. This sits in my drawer, but I might take it out for biking because i don't care if it breaks.
Dynavap is worth a mention as a cheap analog vape that can make huge clouds. There is also a huge ecosystem for it, and it's interoperable with some other vapes ecosystems.
Have had a few sessions with it so far, I love how well the ceramic holds the heat, and I was surprised by how well the stock cooling worked. It's the only vape in my collection I currently prefer to hit dry.
It is a smaller form factor than my TM2, but can deliver just as much of a punch. However, I'm not sure my technique is quite right yet, because I'm ripping through battery a lot faster with the Firewood than the tinymight.
The wood adds a slight flavor, but it's complementary, and I enjoy it. The capsules are okay, not as easy to manage as some other vapes, but does make my loading/unloading ritual a little easier. There is a new bowl option I may try when the parts become available again.
TM2 is still my primary DD, but this vape fills a specific niche and makes for a great show piece.
Yes, Sour Diesel is a great strain. My only complaint is I get dry eyes and mouth from it (and many diesels).
This is a little more than bro science, which is what led me to these specific cannabinoids in the first place when comparing to my personal experiences.

Glad you found it helpful. It has been life changing for me, coming from street weed where getting desired effects was a roll of the dice.
Keywords dispensaries might use to market strains that might help you narrow your search: Energetic, Focus, Creative, Uplifting.
Depending on your location, availability and staff capabilities to assist you may be limited. CBG products are gaining popularity, and flower containing CBDv or THCv may be available but THCv dominate products will probably be less available.
You might have better luck trying CBD vendors. If you are capable and interested, homegrowing is an option. THCv dominate seeds are readily available online (take local laws into consideration).
CBDv when heated becomes THCv.
Another fun fact is CBG is known the "mother of all cannabinoids". It breaks down into all other cannabinoids.
