100% I was guesstimating numbers to make a point.

Your info way more valid I’m sure

As I mentioned I really don’t use nicotine at all anymore

I have a couple of marijuana THC Vapes

I feel like I mentioned that pretty specifically

I was lucky enough to just quit the nicotine habit about a year ago

Long story short the refillable ones are more expensive and still have a pretty high failure rate with regular maintenance.

Now that being said I understand not everyone actually does the regular maintenance.

Basically people can’t afford $150 box mod to break on them and then they’re fucked.

Buying a disposable for 50$ a month ( I don’t know the real numbers or whatever I’m just guesstimating here) at least they know it’s not going to break on them before it runs out of juice

Something like that

Because I literally told my friend about the disposable they problem and she took time to explain why she used disposables.

For a lot of people it’s as simple as the best available option to continue their habit.

Shit ain’t right but it is what it is.

I’m ashamed to say by now I have bought five total of the Indi 1g disposable vapes. The marijuana oil type.

I have not thrown a single one of them away although they have long been empty. I prefer to just buy standard cartridges. Which also have a bit of waste but no lithium

Whoosh

The funny thing is, both of these are JavaScript for me.

I mean I guess TypeScript if I’m doing coding for work.

They just released the patch on game pass.

Give it another shot.

Maybe, doesn’t mean I’ll ever use utorrent again

Try out qbitorrrent. You just might like it better

Among other things, utorrent uses your CPU for some kind of crypto mining scheme.

No joke

What an interesting read!

Thank you so much. Interesting to hear about Stoker’s widow, and her going to the courts to pursue a copyright claim.

Hey this is a pretty interesting story, got a link?

A doctor is anybody with a doctorate.

Somehow, colloquially, we came to only refer to MD’s ( Doctor of Medicine ) as doctors.

A PhD is just a Doctor of Philosophy. A PhD doesn’t make anyone a doctor more so than an MD or a JD. Yes, even a lawyer is a doctor.

Anybody with a doctorate degree is a doctor. And just for fun, all a doctorate means is the highest degree awarded by a graduate school or other approved educational organization. Feel like I’m getting too technical with this so I’m just going to stop writing this comment.

Yes, 100%.

I really can’t tell if you’re being serious. Just in case…

The prophet Muhammad was a real piece of shit etc etc etc.

See? I’m allowed to do that. Thankfully I live somewhere I don’t have to be in fear of saying things like that.

Yes my wording was terrible. you’re right that it’s the millions of other things constantly polluting that’s the problem.

My point was just that her tour is one of the largest ever. Largest ever also means one of the most polluting ever.

As I replied to other people, yes the wording was poor.

But, it’s so silly to compare her fleet of semi trucks to all the semi trucks in the world. I mean wouldn’t it make a bit more sense to compare her to other touring acts? Was just reading an article yesterday about how hers is one of the largest and most expensive tours ever.

fwiw I used to live in India many years ago.

Was lucky enough to emigrate to the states when I was eight years old. We didn’t have a car back then. My dad had a moped that we used a lot.

But yeah, I didn’t use to be part of the problem. But now I am as well

I already mentioned I was wrong about the air travel. I looked up the numbers and edited my comment immediately.

Yeah the trucks are a drop in the sea as well.

But stop kidding yourself that the 90 semi trucks is nothing. It’s all pollution.

What other tour and/or concert is slipping around 90 semi trucks??

You bring up a good point that there are millions of semi trucks on the road. But that’s ridiculous to compare her 90 semi trucks to all the trucks on the road

Let’s compare her to other touring artists. To be honest I don’t have the numbers off top of my head I’ll have to look him up. But I was reading an article the other day about how her tour is one of the largest productions to date.

So no, her 90 trucks are not a huge part of the problem. That wording was wrong on my part. But among touring artist, she is easily one of the biggest polluters.

Quoting Taylor Swift is… an interesting choice when talking about climate changes.

Didn’t her recent tour require 90+ semi trucks just to go from city to city? Not even going to mention all the emissions that result from whenever they have to travel by plane.

Yes, popular music acts that tour are a HUGE part of the problem.

Also, my bad I’m not tryna harp on you just because I recognized a song lyric. I’m a Taylor Swift fan myself. Well, more of a chiefs fan. And by value of the transitive property…

Edit: also apparently all air travel only accounts for about 2% of emissions. So while my point isnt technically wrong it’s missing the forest for the trees

It’s not always about cost but convenience.

Got hot water? Add instant coffee and you’re done.

I think you need to perhaps watch some videos explaining the anatomy/physiology of the gastrointestinal tract and urinary tract.

The kind of questions you’re asking can be easily answered with an understanding of the systems I’ve stated above.

I’m 29!

Millennial, I guess.
