  • I’m of the opposite view on this. Been using Libre some years now but had to use Word for a bit on friend’s computer --ewww! Nothing was where I expected it or even where I remembered it from years ago, the drawing program just sucks. I’m thinking people just get used to using what they’ve been using and feel that it’s the ‘correct’ way. (I have that feeling too when I have to do anything on an iPhone)

















  • Former heavy smoker here, quit two decades ago. It creates a strong craving, which briefly supplies pleasure when you appease it. It provides (or at least used to) social connection with other smokers, particularly at “smoking breaks”.

    And it gives you something recognizable to do while waiting for something. Rather than sitting there, staring out with a stupid look on your face, you instead sit there smoking a cigarette.

    It’s an incredibly difficult addiction to break, it’s expensive, and these days identifies you as either very old or more or less a loser. Avoid, avoid.
