Except for the fact that other ways don’t work. It’s not possible to slowly reduce your nicotine intake with cigarettes. The only alternative is: stop all your smoking habits, and maybe one of these nicotine substitutes will help. But that

I’ve stated this before: cigarettes will kill me with a 100% probability (I was smoking over a pack a day). Maybe vaping will not kill me. Maybe I’ll grow a third arm in 20 years. I don’t know. But I have to play the odds; “100% certainty”

When people die from the way they let people wait, you tend to have a different vision of the whole thing than “you get what you pay for”. When you entrust care of people you love to a company, you tend to expect more than capitalism tuned

I’m in the same case as you. I switched to vaping 2 years ago (August 14th). Started out at 9mg of nicotine, and now at 1mg. Switch to 0.5mg is planned for early September. Every time I lower my dosage, I notice I vape 2-3 times more than u

I guess "saindoux" is the closest translation for lard. I've more often seen people cook with animal fat (goose and beef, mainly) as opposed to "saindoux". That was only for specialty recipes, though. As you've

I've only been living in Denmark for 4 years, but nearly every single julefrokost or påskefrokost I've been to used lard instead of butter as the initial layer for the smørrebrød.

Yes, outbound has been solid for us, too. The issue is inbound. We literally have hundreds if not thousands of customer support agents unable to work because of this.

We're actually moving to SES as we speak, and the move should be done in a few hours. It's something we had planned, but it just sucks that this is how a paid service gets terminated.

Unless you're a doctor who treated Jobs, I doubt we can make any claim about whether his choices killed him or not. Let's not forget that Jobs underwent a surgery to remove the first round of cancer, and then ended up getting a li

I don't know the answer to your question, but I'm a very regular sleep walker. I also have no recollection of my dreams (except a few). I've been known to rip out electric outlets (in my sleep, I was convinced my blankie was

Thanks for the great content and information. Just a minor nitpick: your identity can't be authenticated. You, as an individual, can be identified, but the only thing that can be authenticated is the piece of plastic (ensuring it is no

I think there's another point that is very important: Steam was the original cloud. Back in the day where GMail was heralded as being amazing, and offering 1GB of storage for your mails, Steam came out and said "don't worry a

This is slightly off-topic, but the Chromecast Ultra, with the Ethernet connection, is an absolute beast. I'm lucky enough to have Ethernet in my whole flat (two drops in every room), and a gigabit internet connection. When I launch a

Not the OP, but it's from Ozymandias, by Percy Shelley. It's a poem inspired by some archeological discoveries in Egypt, whose main message is that no matter how vast or powerful an empire is, all that will remain---over time---ar

It probably would have been faster to apply tension to the lock, and then rotate the rows of digits until you find the "binder" (the one that the lock is resting on under tension). Once you have found the binder, rotate it until y

Half life did the same, as I recall, as did many other titles. I assume that the CD simply had two "tracks," with the audio CD "partition," if I may call it that, being the first. This allowed the game developers to play

Or maybe we just gave up on Debian, and decided to spend our efforts somewhere else? I've been fairly vocal against systemd, and not because of Poettering. I'm no fan of the man, and I strongly agree with a lot of the points he ma

I don't speak Danish, although I can read it fairly well---Dutch helps a lot. Language isn't much of a barrier. English works in 90% of cases, and broken Danish works in the other 10%. The first two modules of Danish classes are s

Sure, but it's not just that. The quality of life could be argued to be significantly higher than in other places. The job security once you land a decent gig is not something to be discarded. This being said, Macron does plan on makin

Are you implying that WCry magically gets through firewalls? Last I read, that was not the case. So unless you're plugging in your brand new, unpatched machine into the public internet, without any router/firewall in between, you

Interesting, wasn't aware of that distinction. As it turns out, there's quite a few exceptions[1]. Thanks for correcting me! [1]: http://ec.europa.eu/ipg/basics/legal/cookies/index_en.htm#se...
