How long could Huey, Dewey and Louie remain children in real life?

To bad smoking isn’t allowed, I could find good use for a cigarette there.

I believe there are some issues for people with mental health concerns due to the reward pathway fuckery,

It appears that people with mental health issues have way more problems to quit smoking than people on average.
The burning of tobacco makes the nicotine combine with other compounds in the tobacco to form MAO inhibitor effect. Which people with mental problems become way more dependent on than other people.

For these people e-cigs have been shown to help a lot, despite they don’t have the MAO effect, they help by limiting the abstinence of not smoking by providing nicotine, and probably by providing a reasonably strong placebo effect from “feeling” like smoking in many ways.

For some people with mental problems, smoking can often be seen as an attempt of self treatment.

Good point, motivation is of course always a major factor.

Congratulations, that’s a very difficult thing to do if you are a heavy smoker, and usually requires several attempts.

I have seen many studies that show e-cig has higher success rate than anything else, both short and long term.
One of the reasons is that smoking is not just an addiction it is also a habit.
With e-cig you can break the addiction, while still performing the habitual behavior, and that has been shown to help ease the cravings. No fiddling with your hands when the cravings come, and you even have the calming pleasure of the vapor cloud that mimic smoke visually.

The bases of e-cig like vegetable glycerine and propylene glycol, even have the advantage of helping to clean out the lungs from smoking, so your lungs recover faster, while still being considered extremely safe to inhale after more than 70 years of research.

Also using the e-cig as a 2 step solution has higher success rate than anything else, again because you can keep performing the habitual ritual, while stepping down the nicotine. So you are free of any dependency on either the e-cig or other nicotine products or medicine.

e-cig is one of the cheapest yet most effective options, and finally e-cig is the least stressful and among the safest options.

Champix may be among the better options, but it is a way more serious change of the brain chemistry than e-cigs, and may have mood altering effects and cause depression and/or aggression. These are symptoms can also occur when going cold turkey, problem is that Champix does not help against it as effectively as e-cigs do. Champix helps with the cravings, but not other side effects of quitting.

It is also curious how Champix is taken for 3 months, when that is one of the major crisis points for smokers to revert. This is a clear recipe for making people revert after having used Champix, which my tinfoil hat tells me is so they have higher chance of selling the same “cure” multiple times to the same person.

Disclaimer:
I am not a professional, but I have studied these issues very thoroughly, and learned how to read scientific papers to a reasonable degree, to investigate and better understand the issue at the scientific source and better understand criticism of some research papers, rather than just sensationalist journalistic interpretation. The above are all points I have learned through those studies. Except of course the suspicion of Champix treatment ending just a little bit to soon to sell the treatment multiple times.

Alcohol is bad, but smoking is worse.
Smoking is both way more addictive and it is a bigger health risk.
It’s rare to be a moderate smoker, generally you either don’t smoke at all, or if you do you are a smoker, with numerous health risks.
With alcohol moderate use is the norm, and only excessive use will make you an alcoholic, resulting in numerous health risks.

AFAIK it has only lately become known that even moderate alcohol use is still a health risk. AFAIK mostly causing intestine cancer.
So instead we have campaigns warning against drinking to much, which was also how it started with cigarettes.

Confirmation bias.

Not the same company, the Motorola Atrix 4G is from 2011, back when Motorola phones were an American owned company.
Lenovo bought Motorola smartphone division in 2014.

12 years with another company, and I think the difference will be quite significant.
You might as well compare to a completely different brand.

My gosh, it’s so rare I have a chance to use my printer, thanks for sharing. 🤣

OK I read it as Linux won’t cut it if we are forced to use Microsoft.
Microsoft will of course do everything possible to create that situation, as they’ve been doing very successfully since the 80’s.

How the fuck is Linux a trap compared to the shenanigans of Microsoft?
Microsoft and other proprietary vendors are the trap, and Linux is the way to avoid it.

IDK where you live, but here we could never be annoyed by butterflies, we actually plant bushes in our garden that attract them.
If you computer is black butterflies shouldn’t be particularly attracted, if it’s not get one that is.

USA was never a functioning democracy, but at least as much a plutocracy all along.
What USA is headed for is fascism.

I always do that, but if the eggs are fresh, they will still tend to stick to the shell.
It also helps prevent dark rings.

this happens usually with very fresh eggs

Exactly, I came to mention that too. So he/she should enjoy the egg being fresh.

Yes the story is sad all the way, the woman died shortly after. Some times life sucks, we were very good friends.
At least the new neighbors also seem nice.

Nope, not when a perfectly healthy happy good dog is put down because the owner find it best, or when an animal shelter put down animals they can’t find homes for, or when a Zoo put down young animals, because their cuteness has been expended, and the zoo doesn’t want more grown animals.
In all these cases there is absolutely no reason to think the animal wants to die. So it is not about communication, it’s because an animal is a thing you can own and do with what you want, as long as it isn’t too cruel.

True.

OK then you are more progressed than we are here in Denmark.

But our neighbor did exactly what I wrote, in her defense she was dying of cancer, but we and another family she knew both offered to adopt the dog, the dog was very fond of both of us, my wife walked it daily, and when we visited, the dog would jump on the couch and lie across my lap, which it did for nobody else. But she went ahead and had the dog put down anyway. Perfectly legal as it is done humanely. My wife actually has trauma about the incident, because the vet came to her house, and my wife was there for support, and when my wife found the leash to hold him, he was so filled with joy because he thought they were going for a walk, but it was only to hold him while he was injected.

So here you can have perfectly healthy happy good dogs put down, even when 2 families were ready to adopt it.
Her reason for doing it was that she didn’t want the dog to miss her after she died.
