I’ll be straight with it. I’m a smoker, I smoke inside, I have a PC that is also inside. I want to clean my PC thoroughly to buy it a few more years. I know about the q tip method, and the compressed air, and general methods of cleaning out gunk and junk from PC parts. But this boy is way too gunked up for a regular cleaning. So, I reckon, the easiest way to clean it is to dunk the dirtiest parts in a bath of isopropyl alcohol. I was considering acetone at first, but it’s way too strong of a solvent, and alcohol should be better at dissolving organic residues. Is this a good idea?
I hereby submit this query to the council, and await judgement.
I’m not arguing withg that. I never said it’s healthy. I never said it’s safe. I just explained my personal justification for keeping this habit. It’s not AS unhealthy if you do it only moderately. Can you people stop telling me how to live my life? It’s annoying af. And has nothing to do with the question that was asked.
In theme with your analogy, what you’re doing is butting in when two people are arguing over how to clean a room and saying “have you considered not getting it dirty or not having the building there at all?”
The problem with explaining personal bad habits and then justifying them with “I have a diploma” is that you are pretending to be an expert and you are influencing others who might not know. People like you are literally exactly why RFK is in charge of health in this country right now and why people are not taking vaccines as much. The death toll is already insane because of the misinformation like what you are spreading. Your “personal justifications” are putting me and billions of others at risk. I take immunosuppressants so it puts me even more at risk (misinformation from people like you).
Keep your badly justified medical opinions that result in more deaths to yourself. You didn’t need to bring it up, and when you did you made it a moral requirement for @[email protected], @[email protected] and more to correct.
Smoking isn’t healthy. You spreading lies and using your diploma to justify it will cause deaths, if it hasn’t already (your nonchalance definitely doesn’t end at a single comment on a forum).
Dude… What? Who is RFK? What country are you from? I’m just sharing my perspective. This is why I do it, and why I don’t plan on stoping. It is a personal choice. You should go outside once in a while, talk to some real people with real problems. What you are talking about IS NOT REAL.
If you are dumb enough to start smoking because I do it, then you deserve what’s coming to you. I am not liable for other people’s stupidity. In fact, if there really are people dumb enough to start smoking because a random person on the internet said they do, they really should take up smoking. They should smoke five packs a day. Tobacco companies and funeral homes need to turn a profit too.
I never said smoking is healthy. From what I remember I deliberately called it “harmful”. I brought up the fact that I have a diploma to insist on the fact that I am educated enough to know what I am talking about. And what I am talking about is my personal health. This is not medical advice. At no point did I indicate it was. Just how far gone are you in your little world view to interpret it as such? Do you see hostility in everything? Do I seem hostile right now? I may be rude, but I have the best of intentions. I’m just not very good at talking to people. Because I thought words mean what they mean in the dictionary.
But sure, blame me personally for all smoking related deaths. Actually, feel free to blame me for everything bad that ever happened. If that’s what helps you sleep at night, be my guest.
And “your nonchalance definitely doesn’t end at a single comment on a forum” what does that even mean? Seriously, I do not understand. I mean, I guess I can be pretty nonchalant if I really try. But I thought I was anything but nonchalant. So I really don’t get it. Or is it that you’re saying I’m “casually cool”, but not in a good way, more as in cold? And yes, if that’s what you mean, I am pretty cold, I don’t really get the emotion stuff. But still, I feel that there’s a deeper implication there. Is it that you think I am a doctor? I am not a doctor. I am a medical professional, but not a doctor, and I never claimed to be a doctor. I studied in a medical school and passed, that should give at least some credibility to my claims. And my claims are: 1. I am a smoker. 2. I don’t really care about the impact smoking has on my health, as I only smoke a little. 3. I have a PC that needs cleaning.
Also, once again, this has nothing to do with the question posed.
