Can't say what all the comments are like now, but at the time of you posting that there was literally no one defending vaping in the comments

He likes me :')

Is it? I think it's worth pointing out that they only tested 3 models (?) from the same company. We have no idea if it can be extrapolated so the headline is hyperbolic. It's like saying apples potatoes are poisonous but you only tested 3 farms owned by the same company for poison.

Regardless, I am pro-regulation for both safety and environmental impact. They created an insane amount of ewaste already and now some have full color LCDs...on a device you're supposed to throw away in a month

Lil bro still out here arguing. If your goal was to get blocked, I guess you win!

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Lmao. Did I already seen your alt? Is it lilbokchoy?

Anyway,

  1. That is the only part that even implies kids are included - in contrast to several parts that imply only adults.

  2. Get a life, man

I'm happy to be corrected and I do agree it's a bit ambiguous but I don't really see any evidence that this study represents the entire population. It says right there that adults were surveyed and the questions include the word "adults"

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 0 points 5 days ago (3 children)

You still think you somehow deserve an answer lol

Don't stew over this too long, lil bro. It's not healthy.

Is there another page? I couldn't find a link with more info on the survey but every chart says they ask the question specifically about adults. I didn't look at the "actual percentage" studies but it would be pretty disingenuous to compare their surveys to the percentages of ALL citizens. If that was a bad assumption and they're actually comparing apples to oranges, please let me know!

And as for the survey respondents - you need to be 16 to make a YouGov account so they definitely weren't (deliberately) asking children.

Buddy, you may be an expert in vehicular regulations but I sure hope you don't think you're expert in picking up on social cues.

I will be blunt and leave no room for doubt here - I am not interested in debating this topic nor am I interested in debating anything with you in particular.

Imagine being in a casual conversation in real life and having some random guy walk up and start ranting about a point you weren't making. You're confused but acknowledge their presence out of courtesy. Then they drop another essay on you and this time they're insisting you defend the point.

That's you in this thread. You're that annoying guy.

Please go make some friends. Your smarter-than-thou attitude is absolutely insufferable.

Buddy, do you really think everyone criticizing this uses vapes?

Do you think it's impossible to criticize points you agree with? I prefer misinformation getting called out

 

I don't browse reddit anymore but when searching for solutions to various problems, many times I end up on a reddit thread with the answers. I haven't posted or commented since the exodus but I almost always have a red notification icon. And every time curiosity gets the better of me and I click it, it's a reply to a comment I left years ago.

I usually mark it as read and ignore it but last night curiosity got the better of me and I looked at the user's profile....lots of comments, all on ancient posts.

If they're bots, I'm actually kind of impressed. They'd be good and relevant comments if they were posted when the thread was active. I searched for some of the unique replies and the only result was the comment in question so it's not just copying replies. I just checked again while posting this and have a new reply - a question about a game tip I posted.

So is it someone farming 1 comment at a time or a sophisticated LLM? I'm leaning the latter but like I said.... it's an impressive one. If I didn't know that reddit was full of bots, I wouldn't have even questioned it.

Anyone else have the same "issue"?

 

A low budget film from Joel Haver.

I kind of ignored his feature length uploads after not liking one I saw before but I was surprised by how much I liked this. The premise is very unique and the characters are well-written. Worth a watch!

 

Hello everyone,

We are nearing the end of my first TTRPG campaign and in a few weeks, the DM is starting a homebrew. I joined this one half way through and a friend slapped together most of my level 7 character for me, a basic fighter. For this new campaign I'm hoping to have "more to do" in and out of battle so I'm looking for class advice.

I want to play a support class but I've been feeling overwhelmed by the class options. All I know is that I want it to be beginner-friendly support that can heal but also do more - like damage, buffs, or debuffs. Doesn't have to be all 3!

The group gave me a few suggestions but there was so much back and forth about how complicated they are, I thought I'd pose the question here.

Can someone help point me in the right direction on a simple support? Any help would be appreciated!

My preferred way to browse here is using All and blocking communities I don't want to see. That way I get exposed to new things I wouldn't seek out on my own (for example: British archaeology)

I accidentally blocked a community while trying to block a user and when I went to unblock it, I saw I had 1250 communities filtered. If I had to guess, 90% are either porn, sports, or anime.

What about you?

 

I'm not sure if this counts as a "patient gamer" because I played them to death years ago...but I've been playing both again recently and they're just perfect little games with a ton of replayability. They're not retro (FTL 2012, ITB 2018) but they're old enough to regularly go on sale which is great!

Highly recommended if you like roguelite strategy games.

If you have any similar games to suggest, please leave a comment. I'm sure there's tons of great strategy games I've missed over the years

 

Both artists are considered "art-pop"

Kind of a weak connection but man...I've loved the posts but someone had to get us away from space-related songs!

 

I was messing around on Bing trying to generate animals camouflaging into various environments but never spit out what I had in mind. It did, however, expose me to furry porn despite my prompt not requesting it.

Some other examples (not including the aforementioned one because I don't want to get banned lol):

 

Connection: it's a song about Satan

The link has 2 songs but I couldn't find this song on its own. "I'm So Tired Of You" is the first thing they play

 

The moon has a strong influence on the tides

 

Supersoakers are (usually) filled with water

New album coming out soon too!!

 

It's not living a lie if you're not living at all.

Connection: Villain Mode is about living a lie
