@pmjv I'll blow them up with the power of Lithium ions!

[ruben@friendship.quest]

@liaizon@wake.st I imagine these vapes are like a video game pickups to replenish your battery stat

[me@social.jlamothe.net]

@liaizon They usually have some salvageable chips too. I vaguely recall soneone turning an old vape into a web server.

[pmjv@snac.lab8.cz]

Just making sure. I can see you thought this through!

I did try inquiring @Xyn for such evidence, but at best it’ll be in a bit of time
