- Comment on Disposable vapes to be banned in England and Wales from June 4 weeks ago:
I use a disposable vape now and I was adamant about not using one because of the wastefulness, until they banned flavored vape liquid in my state.
It started to get really hard to buy coils for my vape, because it became unprofitable for these companies to operate here, and then even harder to find the liquid I enjoy.
Non-disposable ones tend to be bulky too. Not to mention the maintenance is a huge pain in the ass. The non-disposable vapes tend to leak. Doesn’t matter which one you use. If you don’t prime the coil correctly they burn out in a few puffs, and you just wasted 5+ bucks on the coil you’ve been searching for. Coils only tend to last a few days to a week as well. So you’re always on this search to find coils. Also reusable ones only last for a few months to maybe a year anyway (if you’re lucky), then you have to spend 100+ on a new one.
Sure you could get the little pod ones but now you’re being wasteful because you can’t reuse those either, and break twice as fast.
Now I can buy 2 disposables that last a month, don’t leak, don’t take a lot of real estate in my pocket, are significantly cheaper, is easier to find, and the flavor is always consistent.
I would’ve been fine with my reusable one until they banned the products that allowed me to use it.
So yeah prohibition doesn’t work. You ban this people will just go back to smoking. Which is just as wasteful and way more toxic.

Sure I can answer that for you.
A regular guy, and you don’t have to.

I did watch the video. It’s why I asked. Anyone can say they are a consultant, and he doesn’t really mention much to back that claim. He doesn’t say anything novel either.
I’m not trying to be hypercritical, but if someone says that they are a credible source I want to know why.

Who is this guy and why should I care what he says?
- Comment on Actors demand action over 'disgusting' video game sex scenes 2 months ago:
I agree. I typically skip sex scenes in movies. Those scenes very seldom add anything to the story imo.
Unless it makes sense. In “What Women Want” with Mel Gibson, I believe that is a great example of a sex scene adding to the movie. The whole premise is him reading women’s minds, so him having sex with Marisa Tomei and hearing their thoughts while in the act added to the premise.
So when I see a movie that is just like “hey these people are hot and we should film them go at it” is just boring imo.
- Comment on I fucking hate the job search 4 months ago:
It’s fairly insane that from Romford to Sutton which is only 30 miles, it’s roughly an hour and 45 minutes.
I just went to the Wiltern in downtown LA last night and it’s about the same distance as Romford to Sutton from where I live, and without traffic, it takes 40 minutes, with traffic an hour.
- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 6 months ago:
This is just my opinion but most comic book based games suck anyway.

Goddamnit, now I have to find all the people that I haven’t spoken to in over a decade and let them know I lost that game. Thanks, I really appreciate it.

I’m 38 and I just achieved that goal.
Don’t stress about this shit (too much).
Go to concerts, take trips, eat your avocado toast. Indulge.
You’re only young once, and everyone is poor in their 20’s. Unless you’re lucky or it’s given to you.
It sounds trite, but success will come. However you measure it.

So angry. So as you see fit my friend.

Start it at 11 minutes. Everything before that is just his opinions on why people don’t want to emulate games.
Not saying it’s a waste of time or anything, just if you already know the arguments then it’s unnecessary.
- Comment on Will people respond better if you say you're teetotal, or straight edge? 1 year ago:
Get a jacket, get some Casey Jones, Have Heart, and early Refused (since you’re vegan) patches sewed on. Mohawk you’re hair, tattoo giant Xs on your hands, and go around picking fights with people who drink or do drugs.
Now you’re straightedge

Right like holy shit! I never even knew what the term tankie was till I came to Lemmy.
It’s like some people here want Stalin back in power, but for the whole world.
- Comment on Starfield, is it getting review bombed? 1 year ago:
Man some people just can’t be pleased. I’ve been playing the game all week, and it’s fantastic. It delivered exactly what I thought it was going to be.
Sure there are some bugs, and some complaints about a few minor things, but as a whole this game is spot on.
I’m just not sure what people are expecting. It’s Fallout/Skyrim in space, and it’s exactly what I thought it was going to be.
