Theres always going to be some imprecision with baked goods. Just try your best to cut it apart equally and hope it all averages out. If you want to get scientific and exact you should put the cannaoil in pill capsules.

Hey bizzle. I discovered the art of bubble hash making this year and love it. I’m not a grower so I only process an oz of cheap shake I bought online at a time. I shake it up in mason jars and strain with bubble bags. Its so economical compared to buying mid grade bud if you just want to get high or relief.
Its a bit of a laborious process. The marson jar shaking gets tiring. Would like to automate the mixing somehow. After a while I stopped using all the layers of bubble bags and just collect all of it with the finest bag. I had a hard time keeping all the different hash grades seperate. Also, Im lazy and couldn’t care less if my hash is full melt or not.
Each time I learned something and now it feels like I can wring just about every trichrome and oil crystal out of an OZ with maximum efficiency.
Dynavap was my go to with bubble hash. It has no batteries you can butane torch it (not a regular bic lighter, a jet flame torch) or use electric induction heater. It will get hot enough to properly vaporize the hash. The metal dynavaps are indestructible but I like the glass ones for thermal insulation can’t stand my fingers getting hot.
If you just want to try dynavap and can tolerate silicone I recommend the B for its great entry price point. Some people like the dynavap experience some dont so you’ll have t just try it if you are interested and see if its your thing. At least with B if you decide its not your thing not much money was lost (they have an awesome return policy too). I personally love the dynavap, it completely changed my vaporizer experience.
Ive never tried the dynacoil just put my hash balls by themselves in the chamber. A lot of reclaim does get built up inside, I’m not sure if a dynacoil would help catch some of that or if thats just the nature of smoking hash loaded with oil.
These days I found that the best way to vape hash is to put it in some vape wool or Japanese cotton, and put that in the one hitter mod for extremeq desktop vape. The first hit or two is a warm up to get the hash ball malleable, then you take the vape wool ball eith hash inside back out, rip open the ball and spread the hash all around the wool vastly increasing its surface area. After that you put the hash back in and it starts cranking out the vapor.
As for edibles, I recently made some infused coconut oil pill capsules and have been loving them. When I started out with edibles using regular butter I made lots of butter popcorn and rice crispy treats. I like the pill a caps a lot more since you can just dose them daily without any cooking involved. Its a process getting them filled up though.
Here’s the oil/butter making guide I trust. You’ll hear 10,000 different opinions on making cannabutter/oil. Differing oven decarb temp, time spent infusing, whether to use a crock pot, double boiler, or simmer on a skillet. whether or not to put lecithin in.
IMO the world works in averages. The particular process and exact timing isnt as important as its hyped up to be. As long as the good stuff is activated, gets in the oil, and isnt overcooked into cbd/cbn, you are golden. How you do that doesnt matter that much, so do what you think is best with the cooking appliances you have on hand and learn from the process.
Coconut oil in gel capsules have no taste.
I have a strange fascination with non credible defense post. Military people are like academic nerds when it comes to hyper specific vocabulary and in-the-know references. So many post and comments are like half ciphers where its a puzzle to piece together what is being talked about ad what the joke is.
Wile Coyote was never quite the same after his final divorce. He found Rebecca with the roadrunner.
Yeah, I know better than to get involved in debating someone more interested in spitting out five paragraph essays trying to deconstruct and invalidate others views one by one, than bothering to double check if they’re still talking to the same person.
I believe you aren’t interested in exchanging ideas and different viewpoints. You want to win an argument and validate that your view is the right one. Sorry, im not that kind of person who enjoys arguing back and forth over the internet or in general. Look elsewhere for a debate opponent to sharpen your rhetoric on.
I wish you well in life whoever you are but there is no point in us talking. We will just have to see how the future goes in the next 10 years.
Congrats bizzle! I hope to grow my own someday
You’ll never get good at a new skill if youre too afraid of screwing up to even try or give up after one go. Dont expect perfection from yourself and do the best you can. Learn something from the process and do it slightly better next time.
Fortunately cooking is very forgiving. If you do one or two things slightly wrong just roll with it. Here is the guide I am using today for my butter. … also its text based counterpart If it goes well I’ll update.
If its your first time i recommend not using super nice flower just get some cheap shake that way you aren’t loosing much if the batch gets scuffed. After a few batches of cheap stuff you can take what you’ve learned and go for high quality flower.
The crock pot will be smelly do that part outside or in garage If you can. They have cheap propane ovens you can use outside for decarb too just need to get a oven thermometer and keep an eye on it.
A tool is a tool. It has no say in how it’s used. AI is no different than the computer software you use browse the internet or do other digital task.
When its used badly as an outlet for escapism or substitute for social connection it can lead to bad consequences for your personal life.
When it’s best used is as a tool to help reason through a tough task, or as a step in a creative process. As on demand assistance to aid the disabled. Or to support the neurodivergent and emotionally traumatized to open up to as a non judgemental conversational partner. Or help a super genius rubber duck their novel ideas and work through complex thought processes. It can improve peoples lives for the better if applied to the right use cases.
Its about how you choose to interact with it in your personal life, and how society, buisnesses and your governing bodies choose to use it in their own processes. And believe me, they will find ways to use it.
I think comparing llms to computers in 90s is accurate. Right now only nerds, professionals, and industry/business/military see their potential. As the tech gets figured out, utility improves, and llm desktops start getting sold as consumer grade appliances the attitude will change maybe?
It delivers on what it promises to do for many people who use LLMs. They can be used for coding assistance, Setting up automated customer support, tutoring, processing documents, structuring lots of complex information, a good generally accurate knowledge on many topics, acting as an editor for your writings, lots more too.
Its a rapidly advancing pioneer technology like computers were in the 90s so every 6 months to a year is a new breakthrough in over all intelligence or a new ability. Now the new llm models can process images or audio as well as text.
The problem for openAI is they have serious competitors who will absolutely show up to eat their lunch if they sink as a company. Facebook/Meta with their llama models, Mistral AI with all their models, Alibaba with Qwen. Some other good smaller competiiton too like the openhermes team. All of these big tech companies have open sourced some models so you can tinker and finetune them at home while openai remains closed sourced which is ironic for the company name… Most of these ai companies offer their cloud access to models at very competitive pricing especially mistral.
The people who say AI is a trendy useless fad don’t know what they are talking about or are upset at AI. I am a part of the local llm community and have been playing around with open models for months pushing my computers hardware to its limits. Its very cool seeing just how smart they really are, what a computer that simulates human thought processes and knows a little bit of everything can actually do to help me in daily life.
Terrence Tao superstar genius mathematician describes the newest high end model from openAI as improving from a “incompentent graduate” to a “mediocre graduate” which essentially means AI are now generally smarter than the average person in many regards.
This month several comptetor llm models released which while being much smaller in size compared to openai o-1 somehow beat or equaled that big openai model in many benchmarks.
Neural networks are here and they are only going to get better. Were in for a wild ride.
Have you tried a dynavap with induction heater for concentrates? The inspire wand induction Heatr comes with its own cups and bangers but dynavap is better in it
“Weed lab”! You make the procedure of baking a ground up plant in the oven for 30 minutes then putting it in a crock pot with coconut oil/butter sound like a Breaking Bad meth cooking operation. Jesse, we need to cook some brownies :)
I respect that processing hemp flower at home isnt your thing. WNC CBD has always been top tier with its thca flower and the edibles from them will almozt certainly kick ass. They know what they’re doing.
I suggested homemade edibles or tinctures as an economic and effective option. Usually edible users look to pot for frequent pain relief or stress medicine. Buying premade stuff thats actually effective at helping gets pricey quick for medical users.
Here in USA you can buy legal thca or cbd hemp flower shake right from wholesalers online dirt cheap. Moreover there are specific cooking appliances like the magic butter maker and nova fx too which automates the whole process.
In case you give it a second thought, the pot smell released during the oven baking process can be mitigated by sealing the flower in a mason jar while cooking in the oven. The jar can easily withstand the 240f temp you decarb the herb at. This also helps recapture active terpenes and cannabanoids that vaporize at low temps.
Good luck, hope you find some awesome stuff.
Learn to make your own edibles the ones from dispensaries or online are weak and overpriced. Can do capsules, make butter, make alcohol tincture, lots of options. Just find a good supplier of shake.
Its not just AI code but AI stuff in general.
It boils down to lemmy having a disproportionate amount of leftist liberal arts college student types. Thats just the reality of this platform.
Those types tend to see AI as a threat to their creative independent business. As well as feeling slighted that their data may have been used to train a model.
Its understandable why lots of people denounce AI out of fear, spite, or ignorance. Its hard to remain fair and open to new technology when its threatening your livelihood and its early foundations may have scraped your data non-consentually for training.
So you’ll see AI hate circle jerk post every couple days from angry people who want to poison models and cheer for the idea that its just trendy nonesense. Dont debate them. Dont argue. Just let them vent and move on with your day.
Here’s the funny picture

Thanks for sharing, knew him from some numberphile vids cool to see they have a mastadon account. Good to know that LLMs are crawling from “incompentent graduate” to “mediocre graduate”. Which basically means its already smarter than most people for many kinds of reasoning task.
I’m not a big fan of the way the guy speaks though, as is common for super intelligent academic types they have to use overly complicated wording to formally describe even the most basic opinions while mixing in hints of inflated ego and intellectual superiority. He should start experimenting with having o-1 as his editor and summarize his toots.

At least their coworkers know who the vampire is.
If you decide to get a Dyna, you can start off with a cheap hand torch for a month or two to decide if you like it enough to spend on a more expensive induction heater. The Dynacup IH is 55-65$ USD and the inspire wand is often on sale for 90-100$usd on dynavap site. I share your concerns about fire and dont like filling butane so I went for the wand as first upgrade.
