My wife decided to try Win10 a while back when it first came out on her laptop. It lasted about 15 minutes before I had to revert it back to Win8 and she still disliked win8. Now with her desktop she wanted win7. I always disable indexing and send error reports through the services in our comps. Unless you build the comp from parts you get lots of useless bloatware and garbage in storebought systems. I still have to disable and set to "manual" lots of programs that don't need to run all the time in the background. Shut off defender and install MSC as antiviris. I used avast for eons then it got crappy so I got rid of it.
vodka is my poison of choice.
most of the refurbished ones i get come pretty bloatware free. but these are some of the first things I do when i get something new:
delete bloatware
change display setting/animations
disable all unnecessary startup scripts
change some folder options
turn off damn near every privacy setting (at least the ones I find)
do some registry edits; these don't speed things up too much, more like personal preferences.
kill about 75% of the background processes.
if it was my lap top, I'd throw in a solid state drive and upgrade the ram and cpu. but since work won't pay for that, I probably won't.
i also hate taking apart laptops. lol
That is understandable. You could increase the nic by 1 or 2 % in a bottle or two, especially the ones in a tank you mtl. This too shall pass and even though the commute to "the big city" sucks, it is doable.
Your saying authorize net isn't the same online and in stores?

(which is very hard to do right now) . . .
Uncle I hope nothing seriously wrong, PM me if I can help My problem was was that I was hooked up to IVs on one arm and an NG tube in my stomach. For me to get out of bed required two nurses to unhook everythingI did the same when I was in, but with a Presa TC75 and Tron-S I think (I hid it in my clothes in the closet) and vaped when they weren't looking (and just held my breath).
Pretty much much my routine with every refurbished laptop I ever bought.vodka is my poison of choice.

That free time will pass faster and provide a bit of cash if you take stock of all the vaping equipment you have and thin the herd a bit. The stuff you aren't any longer interested in keeping can be sold here in the classys or on eBay. Better to move some out before it's obsolete! I wish I had done this myself lol!
It can also give you a vaping budget!
Thank You!
So happy you are feeling better. Glad you are back.....We missed you.Oh, Chels, I'm so sorry to hear that. Good luck on your job hunt.

yes? I'm not really sure of your question. lol. been stuck in meetings and haven't had all my coffee yet this morning.
as I said, I mainly work with small retailers (gas stations). but the compliance rules for B&M shops are totally different than online retailers. so I'd assume that yes, they either are different or not compliant.
Not sure this has been answered yet, cause too many pages to backtrack, but I have the Pico Squeeze and really enjoying it. It is 4.5" long with atty & drip tip and less than 2" wide. I have a small hand, and it fits nicely.
I'm feeling the same as you....am happy with all that I have.....and, that's a lot! Even me craving vape mail has diminished....mind you, diminished, not totally gone!Exactly why I left the "tempting" threads for awhile. Get to know what I have (I have a lot!) and stop seeking new. I am very happy with what I have and new stuff was disappointing (high watt, sub ohm airy DTL is Not for me).
Yea, there is that. No vape mail is depressing
So glad you're on the mend!Hello my friends
So glad to be able to be with you all again.I am slowly reading through, and am so touched by all your comments and well-wishes. They mean a lot to me and I'm sure that this collective positive energy helped me heal. I'm still a few weeks from recovery but feel human again.
I was too sick to even think of vaping until about 4 days ago but my icares saved the day. Anything bigger and I would have been found out. Not that I could do much vaping anyway! But hospital gowns have a pocket where I could quickly drop it when someone came to do something to me which was about every four hours round the clock. I was sure glad to get back to my Provari when I got home!
In time, I'll try to respond to your quotes but if I miss something just nudge me. So what's new in the vape world? Are you all buying new shiny toys?
Catching up on reading this thread is monumental.....having taken a small hiatus from the computer was refreshing but, I missed what is going on the vaping world. Haven't had any new shiny toys in the mail for a long while now, so I continue to tootle puff my way!
Tootle on!!!
I'm just glad to see you backOh, Chels, I'm so sorry to hear that. Good luck on your job hunt.

And chels I second that, I sold some e cigs when I was skint. Every little helps when you have nothing! You know you can always talk to me too. Pm me if you need too

That's exactly what I figured out in a very long process. Coming from tootle puffing I went the DTL-route and at no point I was really satisfied with my vape. Devices and attys came and went, mostly squonkstuff, craving for stinkies got stronger, and then: bam. I bought a Flash-e-Vapor V4, took the 1.2mm airflowscrew, raised my nic to 10
The only vapemail I'm awaiting is a Reo Grand (I sold my first one, because it didn't do well with my sub ohm builds) and a Speed Revolution Clone as my M2L squonknirwana.
It took nearly 1 1/2 year to recognize this, but for now I'm done with excess gear and concentrate more on creating the liquids I wanna vape, getting my nic hit, not worrying about the next big thing out there. Vape and relax, so to speak, not gettin' mad about gear.
