2016 you mean?

With the economy of scale, it is probably cheaper to just drop a microcontroller in products

I believe lithium ion batteries need custom chips just to charge and discharge smartly

Shit, even connecting to modern USB c to negotiate voltage you need a controller

They should absolutely ban disposable but as long as they’re smart about it and don’t try and make it a general vape ban. Anything with a microcontroller and OLED display should need regulation to be “disposable”. So fucking wasteful.

Vapes can and have always been something you can pop a battery and cartridge and custom juice in. There’s zero reason to make it disposable. Make the coil/cotton/juice cartridge disposable… Like a juul was last I checked? That’s reasonable.

And then next regulate how much nicotine can be in per ml. 60mg/ml is fucking insane. That is heart issue level of nicotine. I got buzzed off 12 mg/ml, used 3 or 6mg/ml regularly, and quit at 1.5mg/ml. There’s no fucking reason other than harm and addiction to provide 60mg/ml.

At first I thought this was some open source gen-z device to sip monster energy drinks while you vape, like at the same time. I saw the tube and thought it was a straw. I was intrigued and then read the first paragraph and has the same realization lol

You can’t bet on past events

WTF is retiring?

Rather retire and play starcraft

God I LOVE one day shipping from Amazon Prime TM, don’t you too?

Yeah I can imagine it messing up just once and burning the back of your neck would be enough to never want to turn it on.

Add artificial intelligence somewhere in there

Did researchers just use AI to train ecoli to play doom??? No but watch these ads

Yeah, kinda sick of some of the so called Doom hacks.

I saw one where they claimed they made a pregnancy test play doom. No, the dude got a small OLED display that he hooked up to a computer that ran doom and displayed it, then put the OLED in a pregnancy test, where it normally had a different and likely worse OLED.

That isn’t the point of the can it run doom thing at all

It’s the year 2099. Nvidia-Johnson Inc has just announced a new breakthrough years after their merger. Biotech finally found a means to turn human flesh into… RAM

But they need our utilities, all of them. So they want to get ahead of the game and take over that side of government now.

Except water. I bet this is some weird way of arguing they are a utility so have a right to utility infrastructure and how water is distributed.

Less “we are a utility” and more “we need all your utilities, all your clean water, all your power, and we want to decide how it’s used”

Why is Newsome trying to be even less popular before the primaries?
