This further illustrates how absolutely crazy it is to produce these devices for a single use and then just throw them away, not even making sure they can be recycled properly. It’s complete madness. I hope they’ll be banned soon, I think the EU is working on it.
The regulation provides that by 2027 portable batteries incorporated into appliances should be removable and replaceable by the end-user
Coming soon…
Disposable vapes are already forbidden, at least in France, idk if it is union wide.
But yeah, those things make no sense. The only thing with a battery that should be disposable would be fire alarm. Not because of the battery, but because the main sensor has a 10 years lifespan due to its natural deterioration.
feel the same way about earpods.
“it was actually a PY32F002B, powered by a 24 MHz Arm Cortex M0+ processor. The chip also carried 24KB of flash storage and 3KB of static RAM”
To process a single button.
that’s more powerful than my first computer
can it play Grover Teaches Typing?
Yeah, ZX81, 1k RAM lol
Yes, where “process” means measuring instantaneous changes in airflow as the user inhales (or doesn’t), and regulating a heating coil accordingly by running actual program code - which requires a controller to run it and memory to store it in. I mean when you click “Reply” on this page all it has to do is process one button, but that involves a lot.
Some of them have games like snake you can play in class on them. I mean that’s what I assume its for, any adult would use their phone.
There were couple series of: full lcd screen, bt connected to smartphone for notifications and a speaker versions. Plus the rechargeable battery and usb c charging port (obviously).
It was selling about 35 bucks.
Forgot the game one: had controller buttons and 3 games: pacman, tetris and a lying shooter inbuilt. With full lcd and speaker. (Thus wasnt bt connected tho) Price was similar.You don’t need a CPU at all for this trash
In my mind, nothing with a circuit board is disposable. Pains me to see it.
I don’t get those pieces of crap. There were these fancy electric cigarettes years ago, using those 3.7V rechargeable batteries. Custom designs (saw lightsaber designs), custom liquids, repairable, no e-waste. What is wrong with people to use those crapsticks? And why do those dumbnuts don’t get that these things are e-waste not residual waste?
Instead of asking why people are buying disposables, ask why nobody is buying those reusable vapes. These disposable companies must be doing quite a few things better if people are willing to throw away money and tech.
They are too lazy to refill a pod, and replace a pod - not even a coil.
They dont want to bother, and that’s too complicated and they would just loose it anyway - better to buy those throwaway ones.
These are the most common excuses.Ads and influencers pushing them.
Skyrim port for it when?
As a manufacturer/seller of disposable vapes, literally everyone wants refillable tanks.
Obviously the customer does too but we’re vertically integrated. We grow, extract, flavor, fill, and sell. Managing the logistics from China sucks and requires a decent amount of overbuying to ensure we have a steady stream. You never know when some orange retard will close up the border to x country that makes your stuff.
I’d love to just have a CoA of the distillate, flavor mixer like a coke machine, and a fill nozzle for the customer to hand to the cashier to fill.
…commodified cannabis is garbage and distillate is hotdog water, though
At the early days we had just that. I bought vegetable glycerine, nicotine and some flavour we were set.
24 MHz Arm Cortex M0+ processor. The chip also carried 24KB of flash storage and 3KB of static RAM.
… a 10y old phone can barely load Google, and this is about 100x slower.
Wild that you can serve anything with that hardware. Granted, static websites are basically just sending files over the wire.
The 10 year old phone OS probably is slowing all of that. If they flashed phone as a dedicated webserver it would probably be fine
The webpage he hosted was a copy of his own blog post explaining the hack. It just about fit into the 20KB of available flash storage.
We can infer that on every request, the whole static page needs to be spooled out of flash onto RAM (in chunks no larger than 3k), then sent out over Ethernet.
That’s an awful lot of work for the chip. I’m not surprised at all that it errors out under heavy load. The request queue probably grows until it collides with the buffer that bucket brigades the web page to the network.
I’m afraid to look up what optimizations were necessary to get that level of performance. It’s damned impressive work.
Ah, but what if you string together 100 of these as a cluster? Now u get a whole 2Mb of flash storage!
OK, but can it run Doom?
x86 at 25MHz could barely run it. This is ARM at 24.
When I was a kid we had a 386-33MHz with 4MB RAM, it ran Doom at about 1-2FPS. Upgraded to a 486 DX (66MHz I think?) and 8MB RAM and it ran great on that. It’s possible that the 386 would have been fine if we put more RAM in though, I think the biggest issue was swapping.
Set it to low quality and hit Ctrl+Minus until the window is the size of a postage stamp and it’s buttery smooth.
People got it running on a pregnancy test once, so…
To clarify, it wasn’t running on the pregnancy test, it was just outputting to one.
Came here looking for this question
Ok here’s my billion dollar idea: vapes that already are web servers!
Ok here’s my trillion dollar idea:
SmartVape CloudBar. A range of premium smart home vaping devices that connect to (and depend on) the cloud so you can smartvape remotely (e.g. in the bed, on the job, or even when travelling).
Vaping, even locally, always works, unless your subscription has expired, there’s no internet connection available, or any of the necessary cloud service are down.
ಠ__ಠ
Next up, turning these into AI web scraper bots!

Will it run OG Doom?
This is the new, “Will it blend?” question.
What can I do with my samsung smartphone whose screen is broken?
Hardware isn’t the limitation, its willingness to fight locked down hardware and the power management of android. You might be able use ADB to control it, install termux and then with that, SSH server and then a server of some sort.
In my experience, most phones don’t seem to boot sans battery, so its just a matter of time until the battery goes poof and your system goes down. Some manage it though - you do get a decent amount of hardware for the power consumption.
How broken is it? Touch still works? Display visible?
Probably only replacing the screen would work at this point. Android is quite flexible but you need some touch input to operate it.
It just got dramatically worse, screen jumps up and down, unusable I won’t even be able to take phone calls. I can’t even restart it.
If it’s an OLED and it’s cracked you have only a couple hours to get your shit off of it before it goes completely blank. LCDs are usually somewhat fine depending on how they’re broken. They don’t get worse
Depending on how security is, you can plug a USB-c hub and connect it to a KBM and run it that way…
It took a day to go from partially fucked to unusable, the entire screen is like seizuring. There was no actual crack though, must have hit a rock or something getting lobbed onto the ground.
Interesting video about it

Interesting stuff
But does it run DOOM?
