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

812·29 days agoThey 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.

81·1 month agoYeah, 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

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•People born in the 1900s, what was life like back then?English
28·1 month agoMostly people miss it… Unless you were gay. Then you probably have some unhappy memories about that time. Of course there’s nostalgia for other stuff, but civil rights were way worse for lgbtq.
I’m surprised no one brought this up yet. Being gay in the 90s would be about as controversial as being trans now, and it would not be okay to walk around holding hands with your same sex partner unless you were in a known gay area. it might not be illegal, but it would’ve attracted attention, probably people would’ve said slurs at least. The f slur was used in television and movies until around the 90s. People just used it like “nerd” or “dweeb”. Cocksucker was a pretty bad insult, insinuating someone was gay being pretty damn insulting at the time.
Things were significantly worse for lgbtq people, and there was the fear of HIV being basically a death sentence, and it wouldn’t have been long after people called it the “gay disease”. Some people were very uneducated about that stuff. My mom, who believed that gay men were our equals and should have equal rights, told me not to touch my gay teacher or shake his hand or anything because he might have “a disease”. Thankfully my father was more medically knowledgeable and told her it doesn’t spread like that, even if he had it.
It wasn’t until around after the 2000s at least that gay people were proudly saying, “HIV is no longer a death sentence”. It used to be a disease running rampant that no one gave a shit about because of homophobia basically. Fucking Reagan.
