    Does Bing hate FC?

    That’s handy at least, but those are just redirects to search on the specific site (eg !g takes you to google) rather than the engine that DDG uses. Does give DDG an edge over vanilla Bing though. Also looks like I was at least partially mistaken about the search provider. They do use Bing as...

    Does Bing hate FC?

    Duckduckgo and Qwant are basically wrappers around Bing’s search provider, kinda like how the web browsers Edge, Brave and Chrome all use the Chromium engine or any browser on an iPhone/iPad uses Safari. Not sure of any particular reason to use plain Bing except for if you don’t know how to...

    Have you cleaned the balls recently? I vaguely remember someone having a similar issue during the beta and it turned out their balls had gotten thoroughly caked in resin and weren’t transferring heat well.

    Venty by Storz & Bickel

    Really does look like the damage I’d see to heavily used silicone membranes as a kid. Silicone/rubber likes to absorb oil so I assume the cheaper material + the extreme usage is probably causing the material to soften and warp and get smooshed into the gaps in the case. Weird to see it in a...

    Does Bing hate FC?

    Same thing happened with the vapman rebrand, can’t find their site via any bing powered search either (I use duckduckgo). Turning off safe search doesn’t work either, so potentially censorship, could also be this site needs to update its SEO, bing has judged content to be “low quality”, or has...

    TinyMight / TM 2

    Admins generally don’t take kindly to posting counterfeits in device threads since they’re intended to be dedicated to the actual device. I believe there’s at least one thread dedicated to the Tinymight knockoffs already, but not sure where to look Edit: found one if you still want to post your...

    What would be your Trinity of vapes?

    Vestratto, same folks who make the Anvil

    What would be your Trinity of vapes?

    It’s a joke product. The post they were quoting all involved fake versions of existing vapes (ex: Nomad 7 when we’re currently on the Nomad 2, Cold Fusion is just theoretical at this point, etc)

    Same and same, but thankfully it’s easy to fix. I just hit return until the text I want/my cursor pops out of the quote block, it’s a little clunky but I’m used to it with my work messaging system

    @garett (manually quoting since I can’t reply to quotes in quotes) You should have a silver VI in your tempest head already that I think you’re supposed to reuse? The beta upgrade just includes click discs and a new spring (don’t see a VI listed, but I also didn’t get a beta model to verify)...

    I should probably also apologise too. I’m so used to the “it’s just a joke, don’t take it seriously” defence being used to excuse cruel/bigoted statements thinly disguised as humour on other social medias that I lost track of your intent. Meant to add something like this to my comment last...

    The video is embedded at the bottom of the manual on madheaters’ site. Also the click disc orientation is drawn on the table in the video but may not be directly indicated in the video

    Ah that’s a bit more fair, flexitarianism can sometimes be a bit inconsistent, though meat can be helpful if you have something like iron uptake issues. Had a vegetarian childhood friend who couldn’t metabolise iron supplements and needed meat for the heme iron when she had particularly heavy...

    No more until the next production batch, which is estimated in about 6 months (probably longer based on how long this batch took to make)

    Yeah, something like this would sour or ruin a friendship for me too since the only people who’d get the hotdog cubes are people who thought you were safe. It’s a joke for folks who don’t have any sort of dietary restrictions, but it shows that you don’t take her and her preferences seriously...

    If only I knew what I know now..

    So my background is that I started as a pipe smoker who’d mostly just smoke occasionally. Would always feel super gutted the day after smoking, so ended up getting a MFLB soon after I left college and used that off and on for the next decade until l discovered my old batteries wouldn’t hold a...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Breaks are probably helpful. I treat this kinda like a joint where I do a few smaller sips rather than 1 long draw since native/through a j hook is too much for me. Biggest impact I’ve seen though is to take 1 slow initial sip to reduce heat a bit, then finish the bowl how you want. With a...

    Try: To fix top level scorching: - set head airport to 50% or lower Or - draw slower To prevent full bowl combustion: - push the wand adapter up a bit further. Easiest way for me was to set the glass flush with the bottom of the wand, then push it back out slowly with the tempest until I could...

    If it works then you should be fine! For my adapter the silicone sleeve would stick out and block the VI when fully inserted, so I had to remove the glass insert, add the silicone then put the insert back in. If I had bothered to actually read the manual at this point rather than just skimming...

    Is the whole load combusting, or just the layer closest to the head? What balls are you using? What sort of draw speed? If you’re fully combusting consistently with that wide of a temperature range, you probably have the adapter set incorrectly. I started mine in what I thought was the middle...
