Oh wow, this is a 9 year old reddit thread? The author of this article is really digging for content.

I think we need a bit more attention on the different heating coils in disposable vapes as well. I do my best to get cartridges with ceramic heating coils (so I’m not potentially inhaling burnt metals), but it’s not exactly easy to figure out which cartridges have them and which ones don’t.
Thanks for pointing this out, I’ve come across similar information myself, but what I’m saying is I want to see more studies that distinguish between vaping and smoking at the very least. The op article at least acknowledged that they assume most people in the study smoked, but a lot of studies I’ve read in the past don’t even point out that the consumption method could have an impact on the data.
Seems like a lot of effort.
I really hope we can eventually get to doing studies in the differences between consumption methods. I would really like to know how much removing combustion from the equation changes things and if there is much of a difference in vaping (dry herb or concentrates) vs edibles has on the body.
edit: fixed a typo.
You’re right, I don’t, but it sure as hell makes it a lot easier to keep the hundreds of games that I have purchased organized. Not to mention I don’t have to manually keep each of the 95 games I currently have installed updated or have to worry about backing up game saves or having them available across multiple different devices with zero effort from myself.
Steam isn’t perfect, but it does add a massive amount of value for consumers like myself who take advantage of a lot of the different features that are mostly unique to Steam as a platform.
Also, I believe when a developer releases a game on Steam they are given the opportunity to use Steamworks, which provides a lot of potentially useful tools for a game deceloper.
It’s a developers choice to release on Steam with DRM, Valve does not enforce it, there are games with no DRM on Steam.
Half baked features? I don’t remember the last time I tried using one of Steam’s features that I listed (and others I didn’t list) and it didn’t work incredibly well.
Don’t get me wrong, I believe DRM generally only causes problems for paying customers and I’d be much happier without it, but I think Steam’s DRM is one of the least invasive solutions that currently exist.
“…their useless proprietary launcher.” Steam is by far the least useless launcher out there. Steam has so many incredibly useful features such as remote play together, community controller layouts, the workshop, cloud saves, family library sharing, etc. Not to mention that they continue to keep adding new features that no other launcher is even close to having such as the new game recording feature that is currently in beta.
Sure, Valve charge a pretty decent amount to game developers for the sale of a game, but they provide a load of features in exchange.
Firefox has been, and still is, my primary browser since before Chrome even existed so, definitely not FUD. Also, it’s generally not Firefox’s fault either, but instead the developers of websites that don’t work in Firefox are usually doing something that isn’t standards compliant.
First to come to mind is that I can’t log into the account management part of the pet boarding company I use when in Firefox. Another scenario is that a lot of movie streaming sites won’t give Firefox video higher than 720p so in that case, Edge is often the only browser that can receive 1080p video. From my understanding the movie studios are the ones to blame for this.
I only have Chrome installed for the rare occasion where a site doesn’t work in Firefox. I feel like we’ve gone a bit backwards as of lately in building websites that are browser agnostic.
Looks like the USA is still about $10 trillion higher in GDP than China.
The DD disks were writable so I don’t think CDs would have been a good alternative back then as CD burners were still decently expensive at the time.
Oh we know why it was done, it was done for control.
Pretty interesting that 4.2% of the world’s population generates 25% of the world’s GDP. Looking only at the numbers, it’s pretty cool, but when you look at the reality of it, it becomes a lot more messy.
Same for the big metal tea dispensers. I had some very nasty looking stuff come out of one of those while filling up a cup one time and it made me never trust fast food drinks again.
I used to not think it was much of a problem, because the people running the restaurant I worked at in highschool and college put such a strong emphasis on keeping everything clean so it never even croased crossed my mind that things could be that bad.
They probably don’t even know what a clit is so my guess is it’s unintentional.

You know what I miss? I miss StumbleUpon, it turned up so many cool websites back in the early 2000’s and actually seemed to be good at recommending sites based on categories you subscribed to. I may have been a bit of a power user as I ended up on the top stumblers list one or two times. Those were definitely some of the good days of the Internet.
We’re big on subscription services now, can’t sell subscriptions if the world is going to end.
Have you ever looked into psilocybin?
