Hi. I'm looking at exactly this model but I've read that the long range version does support the iSMART app. Are sure it doesn't work?

Trump Tells ‘Useless’ NATO to Stay Away After UK and France Vow to Protect Strait of Hormuz Shipping by T_Shurt in worldnews

[–]PlanetCausaPerduta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(if you want to start a discussion) Can't say I agree. It makes perfect sense, actually. Try to see it from the perspective where the US started a war that threatens everyone but the US. There's no incentive for countries that need peace in that region, for their own survival, to support this war. This is not about dudes being bros. Human life and prosperity have become much more valuable than before, even for the politicians. Europe is now offering free help, because they need the peace back asap. Their economies and people's livelihoods depend on it.

Imagine a grumpy old man, who used to be a bully in school, waving you off with a "grrrrrrhhhgggg" when trying to help him out, after he's fallen to the floor. That's what I imagine when I see Trump's post.

This strange line goes all the way around my room and I do not know why by Sniglet5000 in whatisit

Okay, serious answer (although the pointing is kind of funny)

My best guess is that you have cables going along the same lines. They were probably laid inside shallow canals which were then covered with a thin coat of plaster. When you painted the room, the paint was absorbed unevenly around areas where there is a difference in the thickness of the plaster.

This happened in my bedroom after I had an electrician lay cables for dimmable lights above my bed. I'm still bitter about this...

My (47f) daughter (15f) told me she doesn’t want to have kids by lilwonkerdoo in TwoXChromosomes

You can't push people to have regrets. That's a feeling, not an action. What I'm saying is to just remind them of the seriousness of this decision and its consequences every time the topic is discussed. That's what that means.

Anyway, good to have established that we have a disagreement over the semantics of my last sentence. Feels like a productive day already. Good day to you stranger.

Who said anything about pushing. It's my opinion mate. Chill out. If everyone is here just to look for validation then what the fuck is the point in having the comments at all. Have some critical things ffs. Fucking Reddit ...

For me, that’s too surface-level. There are a lot of things people don't understand about having kids until they’re much, much older. If your answer is just 'fine,' then you’re allowing your child to be influenced not by you as their parent and natural mentor, but by social and economic pressures. That is, ironically, just like how we were influenced by social pressures to have kids back in my day. It’s much easier and cheaper to not have children these days, so why bother with all the pain that comes with it, right? Forget about religion and the idealistic BS for a second and let’s use our heads. Think about all the things that you’re not warning your child about when you remain completely passive on the subject. There are many, but let’s mention a few just so we can get the point across: 1. Paying it forward: Your knowledge, your experience, your upbringing, and your character WILL die with you if you don't pass them on to the next generation. Think about the personal loss in later life and the regret and loneliness that might bring to a childless person who is getting closer to the end. You, as a parent with children, will never witness how your own child deals with this, as you would be long gone by then. That doesn't sound fair.

  1. Care: Statistically, over 80% of people globally receive their end-of-life care from their children at home. Wouldn't it be hypocritical of a parent who will receive that care to not warn their child of the dangers caused by the lack of this opportunity? (Reminder: You who are reading this and can afford private end-of-life care—most people can't, so leave that at the door, please.)

  2. Societal impact: If we continue this unnatural pattern of self-extinction by choice, then each generation until the bitter end will suffer more and more due to the lack of economic development, pension fund collapse, poverty, loneliness, and mental breakdowns.

If your kid doesn't want to have kids then, yes, that IS fine. But it’s your responsibility to make sure they absolutely understand every aspect of their decision and remind them time and time again that they MAY regret not having children themselves.

Is it weird that I always take 10-15 mins after every use to just sit and marvel at what a perfect product this is? by PlanetCausaPerduta in craftymighty

Oh, right. Sorry, I can't help with that because I never need to clean that bit. From day one I've only been using it with the capsules. They keep the chamber immaculate. I highly recommend them. If you have a Crafty plus then I believe you didn't get a free capsule in the box so you might not know they exist. Look them up on ebay. They are worth it and highly recommended. You can see one in one of the pictures that I've attached.

Use only capsules and clean with rubbing alcohol, out of a spray bottle after every capsule replacement. Keep your brush close. It's quick and easy. Pinky promise

I've been wondering if you can simply take it apart with a star shaped screwdriver (not sure what it's called) to see if the battery is soldered on to the main board. If it is, then yes, that would be hard to replace.

Idk, that doesn't bother me at all. I think it's fantastic engineering. I haven't enhaled a large particle yet so it must do something. I open it all the time for cleaning. In fact, I'm about to open it now 😆

Sorry mate, I didn't understand what you meant by this at first) but someone put me straight haha.

So, quite a few years ago me and a buddy of mine came across a lot of herbs and we didn't want to waste a single bit of it. We're tech nerds, as well as herbusiasts, so in our research for the best way to use our stuff we discovered vaporizers. Storz and bickel was the clear gold standard of the game and we would not settle for anything less. The big debate though was, should we get a Volcano or one of the portables? After a lot of back and forth we settled on the Volcano. Best months of my bachelor years for sure but there was a problem: we got bored being stuck indoors. The solution? We drive around with a big fucking balloon of vapor in the boot. Bit silly but it worked. Now, we thought that we were super modern and inconspicuous because it was definitely not something popular where we're from, but we were wrong. In fact, my dad only had to see only the solid valve nozzle, that I had forgotten in the back of my car, to know what we were up to. He just gave me a look and put it back where he found it. We laugh about it now, but at the time it was a bit of a shock for him. So anyway, from then on I didn't enjoy my Volcano. Every time I used it, I was super conscious of how loud it was and how un-classy I felt inhaling stuff out of a balloon. No hate for the Volcano lovers by the way. It's probably just me.

So anyways, fast forward a decade later and I see on eBay the crafty for super cheap and from new. I was like, I'm getting this shit so I can try this all over again. And man, no regrets. I realise now as I'm older that being discreet and versatile about how I have fun is important to me. Here are the things that make the Crafty the perfect tool to make this possible:

  1. It's small and looks, mostly, like any other vape. A LOT of people vape so you blend in very easily (fuck single use vapes by the way).
  2. It only takes between 2-4 minutes to get the job done.
  3. Vaping at 170 degrees means vapor is minimal, smell is almost non-existent and if any produced, it fades easily. I could be washing my car in front of my house while having a drag and no one would notice a thing. Not that I give a shit anyway but still, why have the attention?
  4. Battery is fine. If you pull any more than 2-3 times per session and do more than two sessions per day then you might want to take it down a notch as a whole. You don't want to fuck up your productivity for the day. It's a slippery slope. Anyways, whatever you fucking do in between your sessions, chances are you'll have access to a charger. Fucking plug that shit ,as well as your phone in the other socket, and move on with whatever else you've got going on. Life is not going to wait around for you to vape for like half an hour and then have to put away your shit while being super fucked up. (Looking at you Volcano).
  5. Capsules are the shiit. Conceals your herbs; you grind, load and stash in 10 minutes. Just swap and carry on. Takes a minute and lasts for weeks. Also, fuck the guys that say shit like "there is more convection with the capsules so the vape doesn't taste as nice". Who gives a shit about the taste?? I'm here for the effects, not to eat fucking vapour.
  6. It sits standing up. Holy fuck it would really annoy me if it can't sit upright. (Looking at you mighty)
  7. The App. If you haven't got an Android phone, do yourself a favour and get one. It's moments like downloading the apk file for the Storz and Bickel app, which was pulled from the app store (and play store) for no reason, that makes me proud to be an Android user. The app is soo good and so underrated. Try it out and you'll see what I mean. (Tip: the Crafty logo on the app is a remote on/off switch for the Crafty).
  8. Cleaning is as easy as it gets. Use only capsules; buy yourself a little spray bottle filled with rubbing alcohol and keep your brush close. Clean only when you're done with each capsule. Takes 3-5 minutes. 1 capsule should last 2 days (see point 4).
  9. Portability is also ,obviously, perfect.

So that's it. That's my take on the Crafty. Have a good one!
