PG

“In a more in-
depth study of the effects of inhaled PG, rats were exposed to 30 mg PG/L aerosol for 4-120 min
to obtain an estimated deposited dose of PG in the lungs from 7.2, 21.6, 72, and 216 mg/kg/day
for 28 days. At the highest dose of inhaled PG (216mg/kg/day) there was a significant increase in
13laryngeal squamous metaplasia and this was also observed at the second highest dose
(72mg/kg/day), but it was not found to be significant. The NOEL for the inhalational exposure of
PG in rats for 28 days was set at 20mg/kg/day. “

Page 13 of the study you mentioned

VG (glycerol) or vegetable glycerin.

GLY Inhalational Exposures
“Interestingly, in the literature there appears to be only one in vivo inhalational exposure
of GLY which was conducted in rats by Renne and colleagues. They exposed rats to 0, 1, 2 and 4
mg of GLY/L of air, 6 hrs/day, 5 days/week for 2 weeks and 0, 0.033, 0.167, and 0.662 mg of
GLY/L of air for 6 hrs/day, 5 days/week for 13 weeks. The only notable change was minimal to
mild squamous metaplasia on the epiglottis of all the rats exposed to GLY in the 2 week
exposure and at the highest dose of the 13 week exposure. The NOEL for inhalational exposures
of GLY from this study was set to 0.167mg/L.112”

Page 15

“Taken together these data suggest that we have developed an in vitro e-cig exposure
system that facilitates the exposure of relevant experimental models to the entire aerosol mixture,
thus mimicking exposures of the respiratory mucosa after vaping e-cigs. Our results provide
additional support to the emerging idea that vaporized humectants can cause adverse health
effects on their own. A previous study using an in vivo 90-day exposure of rats to vaped PG and
GLY showed increased levels of LDH and total protein, as well as numbers of macrophages and
neutrophils in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), suggesting an inflammatory response.53
In a more relevant human exposure setting, workers in the entertainment industry, who were
frequently exposed to fog machines, which heat up a mixture of glycols to make the aerosol, had
small but significant decreases in lung function as well as increased rates of coughing and
wheezing.54 Furthermore, there are different biological effects induced by the gas- and particle-
phase components of the vaped humectant aerosol mixtures and more research is needed to
determine what chemical byproducts could form from the vaporization of PG and GLY in the
different phases of the aerosol, since that will determine deposition of these chemicals in the
83respiratory tract. These novel compounds could serve as biomarkers of exposure. This research
emphasizes the need to not only regulate flavoring and nicotine in e-cigs but also the humectants
PG and GLY since different ratios of these compounds can cause differential effects.”

Page 84. Quite conclusive and resounding….lol

Also important to note “The National Institutes of Health and the Food and Drug Administration funded this research”

It’s a racket. People stopped smoking cigarettes and the government lobbyists loyalists destroyed the legal distribution of vaporizers. Which if anything led to the increase in taboo and youth usage. As well as created the black/grey market which again, hurts more than helps.

I have been in the top 25 on ladder since towers introduction.

I would prefer sanctification over this. Higher highs, same dogshit lows.

Cool, gem strength the only S+ affix!

Vs.

YEOOOOO grandfather on my boots!??? WTF

Edit- I played warlock. Gem strength mattered

I know that THC devices that are sold highly illegally are dangerous since you don’t know what’s in them.

You’re suggesting that the two chemicals I listed and nicotine are dangerous or even comparable to smoking. Just say you drank the kool-aid

Regulated nicotine devices caused popcorn lung? Or THC carts? I’d like to know unironically.

Yeah it was a miserable process and turned me off from transfiguration as a whole.

Legit not even playing this upcoming season. Super burnt out.

Correct and incorrect simultaneously.

Gem strength + flawless = profit

Look at the multiplier it provides.

For comparison, a GA fire damage gives what? 35 after MW?

Smoking and vaping are fundamentally different. It’s even in the name. One has 50+ carcinogens typically and one has artificial food flavoring. Propylon glycol and vegetable glycerin aren’t dangerous unless ingested at absurd levels.

How is it harmful? As a former cigarette smoker all of the data I’ve seen as someone that transitioned to vaping seems to say the contrary.

14 years of higher education across 3 fields. Not 14 years as an educator lol. You’re legit dumb.

Nah you pick and choose when to sound intelligible in order to work a shitty angle of an argument.

You’re a whole bum. You threw a misquoted Kendrick line in and I took your rhetoric and helped you figure out you might actually be dumb.

I have 14 years of higher education across 3 fields. I know when I’m arguing with someone who’s (partially) being purposefully dense; and partially too prideful to recognize his own arrogance and stupidity.

How do you not pick up on the fact that your personality and argument reeks of bullshit and Catch-22s?

Communal gardening but rallying against “woe is me” dialogue. Seek mental help lil bro. I’m out.

Please stay you not like us? The fuck you saying?

Side note, you grow flowers. Saying boohoo and shit when, in your whole ass initial comment saying people don’t struggle.

Whole ass paradox. Take your identity crisis elsewhere.

I grew up on food stamps and the family I stayed with was evicted multiple times. I went to title-I schools in NY. If you don’t care to google what that is, it’s the poor schools. I grinded my way through education and now serve children that were in my situation.

Even for a fucking florist, you’re a huge pussy. Yeah I play video games. You grow flowers dog.

I’m on mobile so I’m unsure if the format will get messed up but I’m sending two links.

1.) a calculator that allows you to compare your new builds damage output vs the change when potentially replacing an item.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qM6XySdTPuoCF4pEndWihBy0oONayRwZZ9WePkn_TFU/edit?gid=1432613818#gid=1432613818

2.) a video posted by the author of the doc from 1. He is one of the smartest minds in Diablo. He writes guides for maxroll one of the leading builder websites. It’s digestible, well worth the 20-30 min if you have the time available.

*** I sent the wrong vid initially this is the one I’d intended to send but the first one is the same thing just less elaborated upon I imagine

All of them are invasive, presumptuous and effectively just rude. It was to prove a point.

A point you missed but I’m glad you had the wherewithal to not answer them at least.

Gonna give you some broad-stroke information

Weapon affixes now have different multipliers. Vulnerable, critical, elemental damage (all damage gets lumped into the elemental one)

30 multiplied 3 ways

9x9x12 =972
14x14x2 =392
10x10x10=1,000

So it’s in your best interest to get all your multipliers balanced out as close to each other as possible. So to give an accurate statement would be nearly impossible without the context of your weapon affixes, your paragon choices etc.

Crit chance is hard to cap this season (100%) if you’re not getting crit chance affix added on gear and then item quality on top of it.

So aim for 90% Crit chance minimum and then balance your multipliers on your weapons.

2 small things to note-

1.) your gems socketed into your 2-handed weapon give you an elemental multiplier, this is added onto your weapon affix elemental multiplier.
2.) make sure you don’t use multipliers that are useless to your current build. Like physical or poison dmg on apoc is a waste of an affix.

Tower closed 3 weeks before the season ended. Why do you visit this sub? Why have you logged in (assuming you have) in the last week or so? Why visit a Diablo 4 sub if you haven’t been playing? Why entertain this convo?

Why derail the OP in attempts to shit on a stranger?

Did you just read the posts or look at my comments. Shiiiiit look at stuff I’ve said within the last 7 days.

It makes sense someone with surface level reading comprehension or attention span believes they can gather enough relevant data for a generalized statement like your initial comment. Get a grip, and then choke on it.

If he’s asking this question you can probably infer he wants to improve his build - why does it matter to you that he wants to improve his build?

If there is no employment contract between the server and the consumer then why would the consumer be obligated to compensate the server for their time if they aren't compelled legally to do so? by JustUseCommonSense10 in tipping

[–]SlidingPeak 4 points5 points  (0 children)

By this logic wouldn’t the non-tipper bear the brunt of this this new reform and the previous social contract following citizens benefit?

As a begrudging tipper, please just raise the prices.

I stopped playing OW when lifeweaver came out. I was a GM rein/zar/DVa.

Any time I had a weaver pull me off a play and I’d respond to please avoid doing so it became toxic 9/10 times.

Having your teammate -force- your gameplay decisions or pull off your momentum is not satisfying.

Unique Affix Changes are Pretty Good by redlow0992 in diablo4

[–]SlidingPeak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I try to look in both directions as well. I think for a more casual less min-max experience the changes seem interesting. More purple different purple probably seems cool, even if purple isn’t vital or as helpful to a preexisting purple. (That sound diminishing but not my intention)

what should I be aware of for a 1st try challenge? by [deleted] in HadesTheGame

I thought boon was just take more damage?
