The FDA would say that Creampie Guy is "safe and effective" at degreasing keyboards. We all know he is too busy manning the "reverse drive-thru" to actually carry through with the task. And the reverse drive-thru lanes would have to be blocked with a 50-car pileup for hours before he would consider scavenging the grease and biofilm off the stack of 1989-vintage AT keyboards he "will find a use for eventually."

Just try shooting out one of those private cameras and see what happens.

Hahaha, I have shot out a few myself. Nothing comes of it. The weak spot is in the control panel in the rear of the camera where the power comes in. It is weak and has membrane switches in it. So with a properly placed pellet, you can easily penetrate that section and take the camera out. The rest of the camera housing *seems* to be glass filled polycarbonate or something similar, and there is a hood most of the time, so you get two layers of ~1.6mm plastic to deal with. The membrane is the best bang for your buck, or the lens also works. Hit it from the right angle, and it will at least mar the lens. The viewing angle is something like 120 degrees.

Another one to do if you are dealing with a solar powered one is to just hit the panel during the night. The batteries will keep the thing running for a while, and they will have not a clue when the thing was hit. Not that they do anyway...I literally pulled one out of the ground taking the period of several weeks, dropped the thing to the ground, curbstomped the panel and camera, and the thing was lying there for months until they replaced it.

Look up the founder/owner of the thing. He is a Georgia Tech dweeb who needs to have a knife to the throat. He got some Thiel money to sell out his countrymen. I want him dead.

P.S. => a lot of the new ones in Atlanta are hardwired to mains, but they were stupid enough to put the power entry at the ground, so open that PC Bud Box, and hit the innards with a hammer. Or just hammer through the Bud Box. The world is your apple.

No, sorry if I was unclear. My DMT gave normal trips. I had one of my grad student friends at the time run it through a column, and it looked clean enough. She ran all sorts of drugs and knew enough to look for the suspect peaks at whatever AMU for whatever aklaloids and well known bad guy compounds. That's not my area. What I am getting at here is the big A has who knows what else in it and who knows what concentration of what in it that will kick your world sideways, and you might never bounce back through the doorway at the end. Good DMT, even metered roughly with a puff of the pipe, isn't going to send you on the never never land trip a big gulp of A will do.

I was lucid enough to hold on to the pipe. Two of my friends who did A basically permatripped. I don't know if they are still tripping or are just permanently "altered." The last I heard 15 years ago one of them was permanently committed. No thanks, I'll stick with the DMT, mushrooms, and peyote.

Easy to be an "armchair expert" like that. I lost a couple of high school friends to it. If it goes wrong, you end up in something worse than a bad acid trip.

DMT, sure, we can call that "profound" -- I think a lot of the nut jobs like David Icke spent too much time hitting the DMT pipe. I synthesized it in college (root method) and took many trips. The world turns brown but it is so beyond brown. It is a dimension where you are immersed in the brownness, almost as though the brown is a fluid. And whatever you do, don't touch the things that resemble lizards but with scars where their eyes should be. That's scary. That's profound. And it's not as dangerous as the big A.
