I saw them in concert a few years ago, and it was a super fun show.

God is just an excuse for the first two.

If they seized his computers, I’m assuming logs and history.

In a medical sense an overdose is just taking more than the recommended dose. That clear cut signal from your body is a symptom of an overdose.

And yeah, the lethality of it is way over stated. Especially the “it can be super absorbed by the skin” stuff. I’ve spilt 250mg of nicotine on my hands and left it for a few minutes before washing it off, and all that happened was the spot was tingly for a minute or two.

The 95% number is from the NHS, not my ass

Dizziness is absolutely a symptom of a nicotine overdose.

Telling someone to fuck off isn’t flying off the handle.

That’s disingenuous. Vaping is 95% less harmful than smoking. To say that the level of harm is anywhere close is a straight up lie.

It’s also not a tobacco product. You wouldn’t call green tea a coffee product because coffee has caffeine in it. There are absolutely companies extracting nicotine from other sources or synthesizing it.

Re-read what I said. I said physically addictive, not mentally.

I wouldn’t trust that meta analysis. It specifically states in the methodology that studies that mentioned smoking or cigarettes were excluded, but several studies that I spot checked were about smoking and cigarettes.

IQOS is still not nicotine on its own, and if the symptoms you described were while you were using the IQOS, it sounds like a nicotine overdose.

Re-read the paragraph you just quoted. I clearly specified that the statement was about nicotine only, not cigarettes.

Cigarette smoke contains over 9000 chemicals besides nicotine, some of which are added specifically to increase the addictive properties.

I also said physically addictive, not mentally addictive.

Blame the FDA for killing open systems that are actually reusable.

Fuck off with your anti car bullshit. This isn’t the time or place.

Ah, well the qbittorrent config file should live in the directory you mapped to /config. I think you can pull the default one and edit it for your container.

There seem to be a few people who have unfortunately believed the anti-vaping propaganda.

If you think that vapes are more harmful than smoking in any way, this is for you. I’ve been following the actual science on this for almost 15 years and have peer reviewed the studies.

Every single study in the US that produced negative results either had methodologies designed to only produce negative results, or the negative results were orders of magnitude lower than OSHA levels, or even lower than atmospheric levels.

The only things the anti-vaping campaigns can rely on is bad science and purposefully misrepresenting study results. Well, that and the “think of the children” bullshit.

There’s also a belief that nicotine is highly addictive and very harmful. This is incorrect. Nicotine on its own is actually less physically addictive than caffeine (shorter withdrawal period), and actually has heath benefits.

Now, to the “think of the children” bullshit. For one, children can’t legally purchase nicotine in most countries. If you want to say the flavors attract children, then we need to ban any sort of flavored alcohol. Also, children can buy as many energy drinks as they want, which are actually harmful to them.

The real reason that vaping is being demonized is because the state governments are losing tobacco tax revenue faster than they planned, and they’ve already budgeted the money they expected to get. But, instead of imposing a reasonable tax to fill the gap, they tried to make a 30ml bottle of eliquid (normally ~$10-20) cost upwards of $100.

Don’t bother asking for sources, because I won’t Google for you. I am educated on the topic, and this isn’t a formal debate.

I will answer any questions you may have, though.

Their sources are effective propaganda campaigns that greatly distort the validity or results of studies based on poor scientific journalism.

Vaping is a safer alternative. 95% safer.

Nicotine is about as dangerous and addictive as caffeine (actually a bit less so, but that’s splitting hairs). You should really be more concerned about kids being able to buy energy drinks than vapes.

Source: Me. I’ve been following the research on this for nearly 15 years.

Nicotine isn’t bad for your heart. In fact, it can be beneficial.

Nicotine by itself is less physically addicting than caffeine, and no more harmful. It’s the 9000 other chemicals in cigarette smoke that increase the addictive properties and cause cancer.

A large part of the reason smoking is so addictive is because it integrates into every part of your life. This is why vaping is by far the most successful method of quitting smoking.

Also, in the US it’s illegal to sell nicotine of any form to anyone under 21. But kids will always do the things we tell them not to do exactly because we tell them not to do them. I’d 100% prefer a kid vape than smoke.
