Sorry, but your opinion doesn’t match reality in this case.

https://www.businessinsider.com/history-of-vaping-who-invented-e-cigs-2019-10

The inventor of vape juice and the methods for vaping it, was a doctor who was trying to kick his own habit.

And it is not ‘helping’ me. It helped. I’ve been off cigs 7 years, and vape for 2.

Nobody gives a shit what it was intended for when it helps people kick two pack a day 25 year cigarette habits.

Like me. And a few others in this very post’s comment section.

Hey man. I’m just like… Doing my best.

And here in Quebec we are paying 6CAD(4.50)usd for a dozen… While not being embroiled in a war of our own design.

Correction: The 6CAD was for 18. That is what I get for checking grocery websites before coffee - It is more like 4CAD per dozen.

I would give anything to be rid of this disease. I haven’t slept a full night since 1996. And the pain… And it always seems like nobody understands. ‘Oh him? He just poops a lot, ignore the doom and gloom.’

And getting worse.

For me it is the wholesale - “Everyone can do this, it is a moral failing on your part that you aren’t already vegan” that irks me.

I have a combination of diseases that mean I could never go vegan, but every single time I have interacted with a vegan online they take the stance that I am lying/wrong and just justifying my choices. Well - My choice is to not die of malnutrition while being tied to a toilet 24/7.

Like yes, random internet vegan - You certainly know my dietary needs better than my doctor and I do…

It may help if you think of it like any old-timey slang. You don’t use it more than once a year, but when IBM/MS/ORACLE/CISCO were using those tactics against open source in the earlier days of the public internet - It was used a lot.

With lemmy being somewhat skewed towards the technically-minded, and older crowd, it is something we used as a general word often enough that to a lot of us it is just another word, and not an obscure abbreviation/initialism.

I’m not sure about how accurate it is, but I read something a while back about it being the opposite in canada. You don’t spend more on smokers because they don’t live long enough to get to the really expensive part.

This is just a foggy memory so I’m definitely open to being corrected.

“Hey google. Start a stopwatch.”

Part of a Ba in Phil. I spent most of my life as a manual labourer and then fell into unix/linux sysadmin. But I read like it is oxygen.

Whew. Top 0.1%!

Now… Where do I put this skill to good use?

I self-host a ton of stuff, and have sailed the high seas for decades to grow my personal collection.

BUT

I pay for YT premium, netflix, and steam, so that my nephews can be on my family plans. Their life can be pretty shitty a lot of the time, and good music, games, and simple distractions help.

Who cares about torture, slavery, or human rights?

BALL GO IN NET. MONEY ME.

Alberta - I love me some mennonites, but they are really into ‘keeping it in the family’.

-Source: Married a mennonite and absconded out of province with her.

No offense intended here - But why is this being upvoted?

vim absolutely is an IDE if that is how you want to use it. Syntax highlighting, linter, language specific autocomplete, integrated sed/regex. And much, much more.

Lefty Canuck here - Very willing to admit my country is full of racist pieces of shit. And so is every other country. 30% of the world is made up of trash humans who would fuck over their mother for a dollar, or to get to their destination 10 seconds faster.
