You aren't going to look for them because you just grabbed whatever image you found from a Google search and have no clue what you're even talking about.

If these even exist, the only reason why a black market would exist for vapes is because of the idiotic bans that created it by killing the legitimate market further proving my point. Furthermore your argument that they're "stopped at customs" contradicts your previous argument that they're being marketed and sold to kids since they aren't being sold at all.

Yeah $4.5T worth of them and all these cuts won't even come close to that amount.

The sad part is that the last "joke" with the emojis isn't a joke at all. That's really what they messaged after the strike.

How convenient that none of the manufacturer or product names are listed for any of these devices except the "Moti Pop" which appears to be a black market disposable from China. It's almost as if someone just fabricated a bunch of items or cherry picked a bunch of already illegal devices in order to push the FUD angle. Can you provide any listings or images showing that any of these were ever sold in a vape shop anywhere in the western world because I've been vaping for 13 years now and have never once seen anything even remotely resembling anything like these sold in any store. It's just more bullshit propaganda.

This is literally the argument they used and it's complete bullshit propaganda. Can you elaborate in detail on what makes it "toy shaped?" Do you consume fruit and or fruit-flavored things as an adult? I'm surprised you didn't also mention "bright colors" as another draw being so appealing to children as well. I guess I never got the memo as an adult that I should only be consuming and enjoying drab colored, unflavored oatmeal for all my meals as color and flavor are no longer appealing to me.

I suppose I should be forced to smoke cancer-causing cigarettes produced by big tobacco for my crime of enjoying nicotine and flavors as an adult all so some shitty parents can be absolved of their duty as parents. While we're at it let's also ban things like D&D and rock music because those lure children into worshipping the devil which leads to things like talking back and human sacrifice.

Maybe after we ban everything dangerous, we can take our children to McDonalds to buy them an artery clogging cheeseburger happy meal and a large coke to celebrate before dropping them back off in front of the TV, so they can watch their commercials interfaced with the occasional colorful cartoon while they play with their happy meal toy and we go back to not giving a shit about them.

Some say your page is under construction to this very day.

It does to me.

I've been vaping since around 2012 and ran through a ton of disappointing eGo clones and mods and got a GeekVape Zeus about a year or two ago and it's been rock solid. It is a dual battery but that just means it lasts a day or more depending on how often you're using it.

They literally only exist because of all the government regulations that decimated the industry "because of the children."

It's so ironic seeing their comments here on this very article and discussion where they're questioning "how Jewish people could support such atrocities" as they give support for the very same atrocities.

Kamala Harris and the rest of the DNC leadership helped Trump come to power not the voters. The voters didn't decide their campaign platform for them.

Possibly also about how you "have a very special set of skills" and "will find them."

 

I recently posted about upgrading my media server and migrating off Windows to Proxmox. I've been following an excellent guide from TechHut on YouTube but have run into issues migrating my media into the new Proxmox setup.

Both my old Windows machine and new Proxmox host have 2.5Gb NIC cards and are connected together with a 2.5Gb switch and running on the same subnet. Following the guide, I've created a ZFS pool with 7x14TB drives and created an Ubuntu LXC which is running Cockpit to create Samba shares.

When transferring files from Windows, I'm only seeing 100MB/s speeds on the initial transfer and every other transfer after that caps out at >10MB/s until I reboot the Cockpit container and the cycle completes.

I'm not very knowledgeable on Proxmox or Linux but have run an iperf3 test between Windows > Proxmox and Windows > Cockpit container and both show roughly 2.5Gb transfer speeds yet I am still limited when transferring files.

Googling the issue brings up some troubleshooting steps but I don't understand a lot of it. One fix was to disable IPv6 in Proxmox (I dont have this setup on my network), which was successful, but didn't fix anything. I no longer see the interface when doing an 'ip a' command in Proxmox, though I do still see it when doing it in the SMB container.

Does anybody have any experience with this that can offer a solution or path toward finding a solution? I have roughly 40TB of media to transfer and 8MB/s isn't going to cut it.
