Neither; both are substitutes for sucking your thumb.
(Those who have yet to put away their security blankets should accept no substitutes!)
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Just to point out the obvious, sucking a thumb is a substitute already.

I know, but I didn't want to be non-KSS.

I do neither, but at least smokers are being honest with themselves.
|
|
|
|
|
Neither... I buried both my parents; they smoked and died of related illnesses.
|
|
|
|
|
I prefer none
but I have smoked long time and still do up and a while. Around 500 cigarrets in last 18 months (note: that would have been 2,5 weeks in my previous times),
Right now 7,5 weeks nothing, trying to keep my promise of no-smoking when I get a child (coming soon)

Are you asking which I prefer in terms of
a) being stuck next to a person who vaped or smoked when in an elevator / 15hr plane flight / dentists chair
b) Whether I prefer having smoke or vape blown into my face as I try and leave a building
c) Whether I prefer cigarette packets or vape packets strewn on my front lawn
d) Whether I prefer big tobacco minimising the risks of smoking or the risks of vaping[^]?
Where's the "neither" option?
Frankly I've had enough very close friends die of cancer and heart disease and I just get it. I understand addictions very well. I also understand what dying slowly is like.
I just don't get it.

The question was actually for:
* people who vaped or smoked
* for people who smoked and vaped
* for people who quit smoking and do vaping
* for people who experienced smoking
* for people who quit
Perhaps I should have clarified it in details

That's the one missing.

I've had enough relatives died too, and that's why I quit. But the number 1 reason why I quit was because of my kids.

I am trying to simplify my serializer (Galador.Reflection: .NET Serializer, an IoC / IServiceResolver and FastType[^]) developement by making it a .NET Core lib.
It should, then, work "everywhere" right? (as they say)
Well, steps 1, my library requires .NET Standard level 1.6
Now according to this nice chart[^]
I could see that .NET Standard 1.6 should work just fine in a Xamarin-Android project. And indeed, oh suprise! It does just compile! (when I reference my lib in a Xamarin - Android project)
I have yet to check (i.e. run the app) that .NET Core made System.Emit works on Xamarin, that would be like super awesome!
On the other hand, on the desktop .NET Standard 1.6 requires.... .NET Framework.... 4.6.3, which is... not yet released!
Oh well.. I guess I would just keep waiting then!

They've added that feature for backward forward compatibility!

yes, they are very forward looking nowadays!

You just had to go and install smoothly so the only thing I could rant about was the length of time to do the actual install. Set it away late last night - woke up to a fully functioning anniversary update. So far, everything is still working; no issues to report.

Ho ... really?
Checking... downloading now...
It is damn slow indeed!!!
Damn you Windows Update!

I just set it off downloading, and when I looked it had reached 89%. I go back a few minutes later to see a "something went wrong" message with a button to try again.
