@iFixit@mastodon.social I've read lately that some vapes even have a computer built in, and some have been hacked into service.

@ObbieZ@urbanists.social @iFixit@mastodon.social More like a programmable chip, with USB-C and a lithium battery (think a very light Arduino board). But built-in obsolescence after all, or more directly, plain electronic waste. Hosting a WebSite on a Disposable Vape: https://bogdanthegeek.github.io/blog/projects/vapeserver

@ObbieZ@urbanists.social @iFixit@mastodon.social Nothing serious though. The MCU is too slow a computer (Cortex-M0+ core at 24 MHz, 3 kB SRAM and 24 kB of Flash, according to this)
