  • You might already have something picked out, but for potential future reader I’m reviving this thread a little to add another good word for the Healthy Rips vapes. In an effort to deep, deep, clean (I’m talking definitely voiding any warranty type deep) my old piece I killed the power button. Even though I had a few issues with the design of the vape, I ordered a new one with little hesitation as I liked the first more than anything else I’ve tried. Plus, it lasted me 5+ years and way exceeded my expectations for price compared to how much “material” was put through it in its lifetime.

    When I got the new one I was pleasantly surprised they in the years since buying the original, almost all of my design issues were addressed and I’d now recommend the vape even more so.








  • I’ve stopped playing since Microsoft copilot was announced and I fully ditched windows, but I held on until the final raid because of the gun play, nostalgia, and the representation present in both the studio and the game. I grew up with the Marathon games, and the early Halo series. The DNA of those games is still there and I can’t help but love it. I’ve been chasing a single player experience that gets even close to Destiny’s feel for so long. The System Shock remake is getting close, but I would love a PvE only game from Bungie. For a long time (read pre-Sony-buyout) Bungie was also a sort of hold out for various minority representations I try to support. The studio’s media showed an employee base that is diverse and they often did a good job pushing back against players saying any sort of agenda was being pushed just for including diversity in the game. This made them a company I was much more willing to throw money at, compared to say, activision/blizzard. That sentiment as largely faded for me as the studio had been turned into a “for the shareholders” cow Sony can milk.








  • Dreams of Code on YouTube has a video for a full start to finish arch install specifically including full disk encryption. While my computer is far from “slow” it’s also nothing crazy, and other than adding a second password to my bootup process, the decrypting really doesn’t take long.

    In rock climbing we use “Gumby” no clue why.

    EDIT: I’d like to clarify I agree about the gatekeeping this reinforces and this really doesn’t get used often, and if anything it sees more use among friends for silly reasons, like missing a Velcro on a shoe or something. Like I said I don’t know the origin because I don’t really engage with the “joke” that much.
