    Hot 510?

    Sorry, what stuff? The surfaces you need to inspect for arcing marks are the 510 center pin on the tank and center plate on the mod's 510 connector, if there are black spots you should try removing them with a pencil eraser.

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    I think that you are looking at the state of having the right to perform legal actions (that is, people who would visit violence on you for vaping would be punished for violating your rights) and assuming that is the natural state, which I don't believe is the case. In the absence of a...

    I suppose we have different definitions of what a right is. In my opinion, a right has to change human interactions in specific ways in order to interact with the world, which is what makes it exist; as there are not enough humans to create a human interaction on an island with a single person...

    There are large bodies of people that will happily infringe on the natural rights of others for frivolous reasons (ladies and gentlemen, the Middle East). The difference between a right and a non-right is that infringing an actual right will lead to the sovereign punishing the infringing party...

    Hot 510?

    Arcing is the creation of small electrical arcs that sometimes happens when firing a mod, it leaves black marks on the surface that lead to more arcing, see if the contacts have the marks and clean them off if they do, then figure out what's causing it (try using other tanks with the mod and...

    If you are punished for doing something that is a natural right, then having the natural right is indistinguishable from not having it. You can refer to something as a natural right, but unless that right interacts with the world in the same way as actual rights, it is not actually a right.

    So I have a natural right to perform any action that I am capable of performing? That sounds more like an ability than a right. The only thing that makes a right exist is the power and will of the sovereign to punish those who violate that right (e.g. having a right to free speech means you will...

    Treated like a tobacco smoker

    It's annoying, but most of the time non-malicious, so I try to educate the person about the relevant laws (no part of my vaping setup can be considered a tobacco product, which is what's regulated). That said, I try not to vape indoors if I can help it.

    The idea of natural rights is absurd, rights are granted by the sovereign, and some people are lucky enough to have inherited systems that make the nation sovereign through some sort of democracy, instead of some supreme bandit.

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    And yet the violation you are describing is nothing other than a feeling of disgust at what a person is doing with their own body. The same logic can be easily applied to any other activity, including vaping, which is why the "my body" argument is not valid.

    Favorite YouTube vape reviewers

    I quite like DJLsb aka Daniel for his thorough and very technical style, though his relentless endorsement of Cotn (the same seemingly scripted spiel in every video involving a rebuildable atomizer) has me questioning his ethics.

    Just because one owns one's body doesn't mean one is free to do every conceivable action with it, as I'm sure you would agree if somebody stood peering through your window while playing with themselves.

    E liquid Formula development

    I'm quite happy with my 0 nic 100PG liquids, as long as they aren't dessert flavored, and I vape about 20ml/day; though I do appear to be in the minority, so it's a good idea for @Zippy56 to make sure they mean to go that high on PG.

    Difference between nominal voltage and displayed voltage

    A few months shouldn't have a significant impact on a battery's performance, provided it hasn't dipped significantly below 3 volts, I would recommend popping it into the mod, and if it powers on using it for a few discharge cycles to check if you like the performance before disposing of it.

    How many puffs per day do you average?

    I believe I'm somewhere in the 400 range, but no nicotine (78k puffs on the counter of a relatively new mod). Depending on how busy I am, I could take 20 or 800 puffs per day.

    Getting back into vaping

    If you still have that mod, you should be able to get good performance out of it using rebuildables by making coils that will work well with the voltage, or by using appropriate replaceable coils. Do you still have it and do you know the model?

    Modern ape-driven cars aren't actually hack-proof, thanks to all the on-board computers, and there are definitely many wrong ways to implement mandatory AI-driven cars, but you're right, the specifics of it are off-topic. The evidence is overwhelming that legalizing and regulating drugs is by...

    If you don't want to incur the cost of living in a civilized society, move to an uncivilized society, see how you like it. I am not currently prepared to do the research necessary to figure out how much psychological damage one's mangled, dependentless corpse would cause to other people, but...

    I don't have a strong opinion on the unification of commercial standards, provided the standard-making body is accountable to the people. If there is a large number of people with stupid policy ideas living in a neighboring area, I don't want them to force their bad policies on me, and I don't...

    Do you understand the concept of statistics? Just because you can provide one anecdote where not wearing a seatbelt supposedly saved a guy's life does not mean not wearing a seatbelt is safer.
