Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part Four

[Robert Cromwell]

Likewise, Robert, and I think most of us here are as well.

(Although I did bite on those $7 KFs from Fluid... another 6 headed my way! )

LOL. How many you have now? At that price they are in the spare parts price range.

I did pretty much the same and ordered another 10 T3S's last week.
I already have 15 now and still using the same 4 I started vaping on about 10 months ago. So I should be set for 20 years or so on T3's.
And I have 40 or so coils to rebuild forever.

E-Cigs' Inconvenient Truth: It's Much Safer to Vape

Great article! The saddest statement was "A study last year found that a third of people who had abandoned e-cigs and resumed smoking tobacco did so out of concern for the health effects of vaping"

Really embarrassing taking a big ol' honkin' mod out in public.

... but 4 degrees is a little on the chilly side.

That's like saying Sophia Loren is kinda cute...

Er, that will bring it to 22, I think... ran out of fingers.

But 10 are already in regular use/rotation, so that's really only just over one spare for each?

And I don't have to include the Foggers, Lemo, Orchid, or any of the Kanger coil units, do I?

LOL.
I just have the 4 T3S's in rotation with different flavors in each. The rest are still sealed up.
Have 4 Sub Tank Mini's With parts should last pretty much forever.
about 20 Evods. and a few other assorted tanks.

I seem to have a windows virus!
Every time I leave my PC for 5 minutes it pops up a window in the middle of the screen wanting me to upgrade to their latest virus version.

Thinking about switching to Linux...
I hate nagging.

Ya never know until you try it. I used to think I would never carry an eGo battery in public. I did. I used to think I'ld never drip in public. I did. I tend to end up carrying whatever I happen to be using in public.

Fast forward to now. I've found myself suddenly aware of how huge my mod and tank are. I don't notice it until I'm actually out in public though.

Sounds reasonable to me.

 

[LittleBird]

No but they will likely be in 2017.

edit: Ohh the Deeming thing.
Yeah back to cigalikes... Hope not.
But not for me. I am prepared pretty well for vape zombies.
Just a spare tank parts purchase from FT to go.

Had I not joined ecf and learned of this thread, I probably wouldn't know about deeming's far-reaching impact, and may not have known how to prepare. I'm hoping that something or someone will intervene to stop the madness -- but I'm hoping actively! My gratitude to all y'all who gently pushed, prodded, and otherwise encouraged me to get ready for any eventuality.

Well, friends watch out for friends

Raining outside.

Ain't it great to be sitting in a nice comfortable chair with your favorite juice, a fresh wick and a fresh battery... How much greater can life get???

 

[misswish1]

Well, if you had a slice of pie.......

 

[FlamingoTutu]

Really embarrassing taking a big ol' honkin' mod out in public. Makes you realize what a minority we are!

But a ProVari with a Tatroe base makes a really sturdy weapon if needed.

Been offline for a few days, but really hope everyone has the most blessed Christmas and New Year ever!!! Huge hugs to you all!!!!

Thank you! Right back at you with much

I'm also very grateful. It's hard to imagine us not eventually winning this thing but it will never be like the market we have today. Without my modest hoard, I know myself well enough to realize I'd eventually go back to smoking when the stress of life became to much. It's a weakness I loath.

We just got over 6" of rain the other day. Early Christmas gift. We're the worst hit area of drought/tree fatalities in California. It was wonderful to get my vape back (glass vial of flavoring are sooo much better tasting than the plastic ones), read a book and listen to the rain fall all day long.

 

[FlamingoTutu]

Double post.

It's nice if you're retired. But, that's ok. I'm still vaping, so it's all good!!

Now, Roto - you read it wrong. I am sure on your day off - if it is raining outside you enjoy a leisure moment relaxing while listening to the rain falling outside with a good vape.

I dumped Winwoes when MS decided to stop supporting XP. I've bee using Ubuntu for about 4 years now and don't even have antivirus installed. Free office package, free banking and acrobat software. You can download and create a live dvd that will allow you to try it before you install it. Oh and the only deal breaker to using Ubuntu that I've experienced is on my wife's computer. Itunes won't play on linux. Or at least I couldn't get it to, so wife got a new computer with Win10. So she's happy now.

ETA: I suspect that your issue is spyware and not a virus. Try using Malwarebytes.
Have you tried restoring to a point before your popup started? That sometimes will get you fixed up, sometimes.

windows is spyware. They installed a little thingy on the lower right taskbar. It is what is doing it.

 

[EBates]

So, what is this 'thingy in the lower right taskbar'? Have you double clicked on it to expose the name of this beast windows has bestowed upon you?

I bought Malwarebytes & love it! That & MSG Security Essentials are all I use. And whatever Chrome has.

What your using is nothing compared to win 10 but on to your problem. Download ccleaner its a free krap cleaner outer.
when you get it running go to tools, startup, and disable anthing to do with win 10 win update etc. that took care of mine.
It can also be used to clean out all the old cookies and other assorted junk we collect, good luck!
Now back to my lurking
