I put some on the end of a small silicone spatula, lick it off of that with the bottom of my tongue, and let it sit there for a minute or so before swallowing; usually takes 10 – 15 minutes to start feeling it. Some gets on my teeth but it doesn’t bother me; it doesn't take long to go away and I...

Nice, thanks! I never used rayon but that's another material I remember people using. Since posting earlier I remembered that I also have a box full of degummed hemp fiber that I never played around with. Glad some of this stuff can be used in my other vapes; sounds like I got a few materials...

I see "vape wool" and "vape cotton" mentioned in these threads and while I see vape wool is a specific retail product is "vape cotton" just whatever organic unbleached cotton someone would use to make ecig wicks with? I've been meaning to try with some of the cotton I used to use for that but...

Without the debowling spike it would definitely be a lot less convenient to empty a bowl that has cooled down. The one I have has holes around the edge too and they're pretty good for holding a heat wand/rod, like for the Chameleon Glass Hash Pipe, while you wait for it to cool back down.

Yep, I've been using a silicone ashtray in a similar way and it is by far the best way to empty the bowl that I've come across; just tap it on the side. I like when the whole pack comes out as a single puck too.

A bit of both I think, with AMD the drivers are open source and are included in the Linux kernel; you just pop the card in and that's all. With NVidia they need to be manually installed.

Over time the reasons to continue using Windows only seem to get fewer and fewer! I switched my main desktop over a while back and was surprised by how good gaming on it was, performance is nice (often slightly better than Windows on the same hardware) and a very surprising number of the games I...

New KDE campaign to attract people with non-Windows 11 compatible computers to Linux: https://www.theregister.com/2025/06/04/kde_windows_10_exiles/ ! I hope the campaign is a success in spite of my doubts...

Looking forward to this myself, coming in September:

Orange Push Pop from Clade 9 Reminds me a lot of Orange Malt from Crops but with a much stronger/bigger orange flavor that lasts long into the bowl. Produces seemingly above-average amounts of vapor that give a buzzy but also very heavy high. A nice splurge!

Since I had some luck with cleaning on Friday thanks to the suggestions here I was confident enough to try cleaning the one high flow WPA I had. After the soak it seems like it was left with the same black buildup that would not soak or rinse out before but it was a lot easier to just swab out...

Definitely some improvement on the stem I tried in the ultrasonic, before: After: I should have also asked before how long you clean them for in the ultrasonic cleaner? I ran mine for around 20 minutes. Also, when I put in my bag with the alcohol and WPA sealed inside it floated so I put...

Thanks a lot for the responses everyone! I'm actually very curious to see how it goes with the ultrasonic cleaner now but, thankfully, now also not too concerned if it doesn't solve the issue; I bet it does but will report back regardless. You mentioned this the last time and I wound up not...

Assuming they can't be cleaned any further, are the current stems OK to use? Perhaps after a cycle in the vape at max temp while empty? Not really sure what to do with the ones I have. If it was just the scorch in the bowl I would use them without worry like I've been doing (usually I scrub it...
