Oh I’ve seen pictures of them. Just haven’t seen one in the real world nor seen one tossed on the ground. I do suspect they just aren’t popular around me. Smokers around here probably prefer real cigarettes.

That seems like a “you” problem at the polls in your state. Not an issue here.

I live closer to Winnipeg than I do to my state capital. We are often referred to as “Canada Lite” by other states.

I had that misfortune when I was teaching math at my local school for 4 years.

I probably spend more time you side than you do. I just mostly do it in a forest.

I wouldn’t claim to be all that enamored of humans as a rule. But I’m not a hermit in the classic sense.

Yeah, I live in legal weed state. The nearest dispensary is a mere 20 miles away. I’m not even sure they sell vapes. Flower and edibles for sure, but I have no idea if they sell vapes. (I’ve never been there-- weed just ain’t my thing). But I still don’t see any used ones tossed out. Maybe we are just neater people here and don’t litter.

Ain’t no night clubs within 100 miles of me. Plenty of bars, but no night clubs.

Perhaps where you live. I recently helped a young man get an e-bike, (somewhat mentally handicapped-- we raised funds to purchase the bike to get him to have better mobility), We got him an Aventon Cargo bike. The local bike shop plainly stated they would work on any e-bike you brought in. And that that all of the area bike shops were the same.

One does not turn away a paying customer.

Perhaps it’s odd, but I have never seen anyone use a vape in public. Nor have I seen one just lying on the ground. I maybe need to get out the forest here and visit civilization for a bit again.

I wouldn’t worry about it too much. The bikes are very simple and the battery pack can be rebuilt. Any decent bike shop should be able to repair an orphaned e-bike.

You do realize that human touch can differentiate between .01mm? It’s why braille works so easily.

Whelp, I ain’t helping the cause. I might be running Fedora on both my computers, but I can’t be bothered to game.

FreeDoom isn’t a game, it’s a lifestyle

Like the Linux kernel, the cow is merely a means to an end in this example.

That sadly, most wouldn’t “get” the point of.

Sorry, wrong person response My bad. But the point stands.

But not all are “christian” as YOU put it…

Kind of like the butcher who got his hands dirty cutting a steak and then a Michelin star chef cooking it for you.

One got his hands bloody. The other made it delectable for you to eat.

Which is more important to the process?

They call that type of “no currency” economy bartering. It works well for peer to peer transactions. Not quite so well for larger ones.

You mean Judaeo-Christian Islamic values. Let’s at least be inclusive here.
