I never said that vapes are “just as harmful as cigaretres”. Altough most studies that suggest “less harmful” vapes are corporately sponsored by vape companies and tobacco companies that are slowly adopting vapes into their model.
Vapes as a tool to quit smoking are a nice tale, and probably work sometimes. But mostly vapes attracted teenagers and young adults and have started addicting a new generation of smokers/vapers after numbers have been falling these past few years.
A lot of comments here are saying that vaping is apprently healthier than smoking. But we don’t actually know that. All independent studies I know of say that we can’t tell the long term consequences to vaping lungs yet.
Everyone that says that vaping is healthier than smoking is just parotting the companies that sell vapes.

Puzzlers usually fall into that category. If that’s up your alley you should try the Talos Principle.

I’m so looking forward to finally playing the game tomorrow! The demo was already very fun. The price point with 40€ seems really neat compared to all the full price titles constantly releasing.
I picked up my Elden Ring save again and finally got the courage to tackle General Rhadan yesterday and sucessfully beat him. Now I got a few quests to fulfil ans find the second medallion half to get to the lift.
Other than that I’m playing Sniper Elite V4 for the first time, which is fun to play for a few hours a day.
Just waiting for Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew to release next week :)
9 years of evidence is a lot of time when it comes to signs of long term damage. Especially with a new technology
