A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Assuming that you're living in the US I think the secret is that disposable vapes aren't as abundant in Germany yet.

Yeah, I'm hoping to get at why. Drop-shipped disposables took over Juul's market in the US and then grew it by about 600%. It was so dramatic (in a business sense) that it's caused ripples in US and UK trade policy, and I just assumed that blitz was happening everywhere.

It could also be that Berliners are apparently collecting them 😂

Jelly doughnuts?

Lots of states made flavored reusable vapes illegal, but flavored disposables are legal. Yes, it is as stupid as it sounds.

i would guess near night clubs and the like… they’re more likely to use them, and drunk people are more likely to toss them willy nilly…
