I was first on the fence, but yeah, at the very least, it's a clear signal to big pharma, and I welcome that move. Also, if this will actually get safe, reliable, and controlled enough, I'd love to have some basic spare parts and make my meds at home. But that would probably require something more complex than Microlab.

Don't trust your life with this unless you have to. Curious project nonetheless!

Perhaps unsurprisingly. Any sort of "assistance" with answers will do that.

Students have to learn why things work the way they do, and they won't be able to grasp it without going ahead and doing every piece manually.

It's easier to make cigarettes than vape juice. Everyone can produce them.

No reason to believe it's any hard to build a similar monopoly on that, too

So, it is a drug, but it's not right to call it one?

There's no indication they use cameras in there. It's most likely just a sensor for vape smoke, similar to your common fire alarm.

And if it makes bathrooms a place where everyone can breathe without inhaling nicotine, I'm all for it. This is not a serious privacy concern.

Doesn't Phillip Morris profit from vapes, too?

Bringing vapes as a popular nicotine delivery system is literally the way tobacco companies are able to proliferate and return smoking into fashion.

Also, smoking should be prohibited as well. Not only because it hurts the smokers themselves, but because others are affected without their consent.

Lemmy generally has a pro-drugs sentiment, which is certainly unsettling.

Also, can I visit bathrooms and not get into clouds of vape smoke, pretty please?

Nicotine is a drug.

Alcohol too, btw.

Build anarcho-communism, thereby removing any incentives to enshittify.

Dreamscape ASMR (YouTube channel)

Every vid is a thoroughly thought out and immersive artistic experience, unlike many ASMR channels with regular soft talking in the room.
