being able to fold a simple origami crane at any given moment is a very satisfying skill, unfortunately, it fades if you don't practice it enough. I learned how to fold origami cranes at least 3 times in my life

oh god it's the most disgusting of all proteins. can anyone really consume it without any additives? I thought hemp protein was pretty bad, but oh boy does pea take the crown.

Rice protein tastes ok (a bit like mushrooms), but casein and of collagen protein are the only ones that are actually tasty by themselves, just diluted with water.

I really really wanted to like pea protein, but calling it wet cardboard is really doing a disservice to the wet cardboard cuisine.

I fear with this kind of campaign behind it it will now find its way to the majority of shakes and meals and the taste will be just everywhere.

smoking a 0mg e-cig is as pleasing as smoking an e-cig loaded with nicotine. Speaking from personal experience of smoking over 10 years. Quit at some point for a few years, found out about e-cigs, made some 0mg juice myself, enjoyed it. Burned a few e-cigs and eventually bounced back to regular cigarettes. Smoked for a few years, then quit for good.

The pleasure of a cigarette is not in the effect that nicotine has, but more in the ritual, watching the smoke coming out your mouth, the burning sensation, the deeper inhalation.

An example - changing ISO settings using some custom web app of the remote camera.
