   I assure you, this is no get rich quick scheme.
   
   Basically, you all send me some money, and then I issue pieces of paper to you that are legally binding promises for more money at a later date.
   
   I then invest all this money, and then pay out on those promissory notes with the dividends.
   
   Everybody wins.
   
   If you're looking to take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity, please wire $20,000 to the transit and routing numbers that will follow shortly.

   Onions are an interesting culinary component.
   
   And as the movie Shrek has taught us all, they are a many layered thing.

   Originally posted by vindicktive vinny get all the police reports and court transcripts you could find.

   
   So you're telling me you actually collated a ton of police reports and court transcripts, then perused through them all, one by one, to discern if there was any mention of intoxication during the act, and then you analyzed the data to determine if the percentage of the sample that were positive on this measure was statistically significant 99% relative to the percentage that were negative?
   
   What was your sample size?
   
   How did you operationally define intoxication?

    I think maybe the bias impacting me is that I'm STARTING with gigabytes of existing content, so I'm thinking in terms of a static data store... BUT, I might want to, maybe even just potentially down the line, incorporate dynamic storage (i.e. allowing new submissions). At that point, I would maybe want to use a plain old database.
    
    Actually, shit, I didn't even think of a regular old (relational) database... AWS has RDS.
    
    Damn, see this is good... Just discussing the project gets me thinking in different directions.
    
    I think I might go with RDS (with an EC2/ELB server to host the CMS).

    Originally posted by MORALLY SUPERIOR BEING V: A Cat-Girl/Boy Under Every Bed Why would you use S3?

    
    Admittedly, I haven't put too much thought into the decision yet, but S3 seems like (at least, when it comes to AWS) the ideal way to host something like an archive of data.
    
    Now, that being said, there is always the option of just hosting the data on an EC2 Instance (or, with Elastic Beanstalk - essentially a variable number of EC2 Instances, I guess).
    
    That way, the files being hosted would be on the same (virtual) machine as the web server hosting them via the CMS, so it does make sense for the sake of simplicity/parsimony.
    
    So, I dunno, I just have to look into this a bit more and maybe see how others typically handle the same scenario.

    gadzooks Dark Matter [keratinize my mild-tasting blossoming]
    Whatever they are, look look kinda cool.
    
    Are they yours? Did you find them at a yard sale or thrift shop or something?
    
    For some reason opium pipe pops into my mind, but it might just be the Asian looking design (especially the dragons - i.e. "chasing the dragon").
    
    But, despite the fact I have done all kinds of opiates/opioids, including straight up (opium) poppy pod tea, I have never actually smoked opium itself, so I don't know for sure.

    Interesting... yeah I never even really considered why people smoke freebase cocaine and meth HCl.

    And for that matter, why would a salt be preferable to a free base?
    
    Are there alternative free bases in the same way that there are alternative salts?
    
    Maybe not, I dunno.
    
    This is cool shit, tho, ngl.

    Ah okay, so a salt is (according to Wikipedia) any ionic compound resulting from acid + base neutralizing.
    
    That makes sense.
    
    But I take it not all ionic compounds are salts, right?
    
    The two basic categories of compounds are molecular and ionic, right?
    
    But do ionic compounds encompass more than just so-called salts?
