Discoloration is the least of my problems. Why are people so obsessed with aesthetics? It’s all inside the case anyway.

But I don’t have a problem with cooling. I have a problem with cleaning.

The second part of that statement is provably untrue. I have no idea what gave you that impression.

You’re no fun at all.

You talk about it like it’s such a big problem. It’s just a slightly harmful addiction. And if there’s no danger, where’s the fun? All the good things in life are at least slightly dangerous or harmful. Drugs, acohol, partying, sex, traveling, even sports and recreational activities. I am aware of the harm, and fine with it. I could spend my life thinking about preserving it, eating healthy, going to the gym, watching my hormone levels and nutrition. But that would be hell. Why live for a long time if every minute of that life is spent worrying about it ending? Why worry? Taking calculated risks is a part of life. The pitfall is not knowing the risk and still taking it.

Or at least that’s how I see it.

My feelings have little to nothing to do with my state of mind. I can feel no joy in life and know that it is worth living. I don’t need a therapist. All the “Mental Health Professionals” I worked with were unable to handle me. So what? I don’t have my shit together, and I probably never will. Why should I pretend that THIS is the part of life I should worry about? I have bigger problems than quitting smoking or being happy. For now, it’s an unhealthy coping mechanism, and I’m fine with it.

But, you know, thanks for the motivational speech and all. 👍

The insulting part was “but have you thought about…” Yes. In fact I did. I did entertain the possibility.

I’m not saying you were trying to insult me with that, but I did feel insulted. That may be a problem on my part though.

Wish you well.

Thank you for explaining how my life works and what my situation is. Clearly you are much wiser than I could ever be. You are right. I will not only stop smoking, but also stop all the other smokers in my household not to smoke inside. Have you ever thought of writing a book? You’d sell at least 8 billion copies guaranteed.

Just have it proofread before publishing.

Thank you but no thank you. Back where I’m from this would be seen as an insult, but I get the sentiment.

I should really switch to something else. I’ve been considering crack and meth, but that’s expensive. Although looking at the price of cigarettes these days, it might be a viable alternative soon. Cheers.

So it’s nothing new. I was hoping for something new.

I could just quit cold turkey. I have that type of mental fortitude. But smoking is literally one of the… I think three joys that I have in my life. So I’m a bit apprehensive about giving up one of the few things that makes me less miserable.

And before you ask, all of my “joys of life” can be classified as addictions.

Maybe that’s the problem… I literally have nothing that makes me happy and is healhy. I’ll look into that. Thanks for making me think about it.

This is the first time I am cleaning my computer in almost 10 years.

Now tell me again how I should live my life. Please, educate me o wise one.

Actually, I retract my previous statements. Cleaning my PC once a decade is too often. I really need to stop smoking, and stop everyone else in my 28 square meter apartment to also stop smoking. Thank you. Another life saved!

My dude. How is mineral oil supposed to clean my PC? Is it a solvent? I don’t remember it being a solvent. I have a feeling people think I want to put a turned on PC in a vat of alcohol. Which is crazy.

And I respect risk takers. Doesn’t make you sound like an asshole. Just EXTREMELY annoying.

All the time, every day. I LOVE fire. And I know a lot about fire safety. ❤️‍🔥

I’d like to hear it. Does it work for other addictions?

Not dense, just not very well adjusted. Thank you.

My dude. Just because I’m asking stupid questions, doesn’t mean I’m a child. It may be really dumb, but it seems plausible enough to ask. And what’s an FF?

What is “Modern” to you? This is an important question. Are components originally made around 2008 still modern?

Dude. It made my graphics card burn. The residue conducts electricity.

Okay. That does not answer the question. I mean, good for you, I guess.

I haven’t been insulted like this in literal years. I did think of it. In fact, I would do it if it was possible.

You know what, I’ll just rant at you, because I can.

I live with two other smokers in an apratment that is around 28 square meters. I can’t convince them to smoke outside (I tried for years, actually decades). Me smoking outside would change nothing.

Just so you know, the two mentioned smokers are very upset to be mentioned here.

Smoke whatever you want wherever you want. Just don’t assume everyone’s situation is the same. I never asked for health advice, just tech advice. It is painful to read comments from all these self righeous pricks telling me how to live my life (no offense, your comment just happened to be the straw that broke the camel’s back). If I want to die from lung cancer, that is my choice. If I want to smoke inside an apartment that is already considered a “hotbox” by most standards (even without me smoking inside), then you can bet your pretty face I will.

Thank you for your imput. Hope it goes well with quiting vaping. Cheers.

Lol non-smokers

You know nothing about my situation. I can’t do that. If I could I would.
