In any case, so little nicotine goes into the juice compared to the amount of solvent that increasing the nicotine concentration even to very high levels had a negligible impact on the amount of solvent. And manufacturers aren't going

There’s an unfortunate corollary to this, which is that if you try to create a libertarian paradise, you will attract three deeply virtuous people with a strong committment to the principle of universal freedom, plus millions of scoundrels

It looks like this doesn't offer any way for video creators to get paid? Right now a lot of major video creators are looking to leave YouTube because YouTube is marking their videos as ineligible for monetization. That's the marke

Compare OS X Lion's mission control[1] with gnome 3's dash[2]. By the time I switched to Linux, I never used the dock, instead launching applications with Alfred/spotlight (and switching with some combination of cmd+tab, miss

Certainly gnome felt more familiar than unity. What felt truly closest was elementaryOS's pantheon.

Statistics go out the window when you know an actual outcome, so they're useless retrospectively. How likely is it the failing in school helps you? Not very. Given that you have succeeded because of failing in school, what was the prob

This works on the old silverlight player, not on the modern HTML5 EME-based player. I've been able to find some hidden keybindings that work, but those only display information. Let me know if you know how it can be done.

I have a wireless audio configuration which introduces 200ms latency. This is usually unnoticeable because I watch almost all my video through mpv, which lets me set a 200ms delay on the video to compensate. I can't play Netflix titles

Hey, I'm with you in feeling that tabs are essential to web browsing but that they should ideally be the window manager's responsibility. For a while I used surf [1] (which lacks tabs) and the i3 window manager, but for various re

Just save your containers from your last visit, bring them with you in your shopping bags, pull an item off the shelf and replace it with an empty container from your bag so that it looks like you changed your mind.

You're right but that doesn't mean it can't be useful for understanding psychosis in general. Clinical psychologists could, for instance, take lsd to get some sense of what their patients experience. It wouldn't be ident

I want to unilaterally echo this. As a kid I coped with my inability to complete school assignments on time by not identifying with success in school. This reinforced my existing faults. Learning to crush that coping mechanism out of existe

What do you think ADHD is? It's defined by its diagnostic criteria, and those are very vague. There's certainly no consensus that ADHD is anything other than a term to describe the lowest performers on the metrics which Adderall i

Treating drug use as a medical problem in need of treatment is not necessarily an improvement over treating it as a crime. When we treat it as a crime there are sentencing guidelines. Yes, the guidelines we have now, at least in the US, are
