What’s Your Favorite Cigar?


Recommended Posts

Guessing there aren't all that many cigar smokers at neowin LOL

 

considering how little i smoke,   i buy those instead now. Still got the same taste (OK, maybe not exactly, but still, i like the nicaraguan tobacco better then others for some reason - cannot exactly say why, it just tastes better to me), and do be honest, it is more then enough for me as you can smoke it for 10 minutes and move on.

Using the skill and craftsmanship that is expected of a Davidoff cigar, we’ve combined all of the luxury of Davidoff Nicaraguan cigars into a mini cigarillo format. This is the perfect size cigar for those days when you are short on time but still want to enjoy a quality smoke. These hand rolled, cigarillos are medium to full bodied and full of flavor throughout its 15 minute smoking time.

I quit smoking when my son was born in 2007, but will occasionally have a cigar when I go to Vegas (about once a year normally) to make people leave me alone when I am on strip. The last time I went, I bought a Cuban, but usually I buy on recommendation. So far, I have not been let down. I think the last one I remember having was a Gran Habano #5 Corojo. I remember buying Swisher Sweets when I was younger and man, I wish I could forget those.

This is a great cigar. It's made by Nelson Placensia. It is absolutely great. You can find it at Cigars International.

While I will not be making it that way this year due to the pandemic, I have plans around April for my next trip. I will definitely try this on on that trip.

When I can find them at the local shop, I really like the Gurkha Black Dragon.  Was actually introduced to that cigar in a book series, Shayne Silvers' "TempleVerse" books.  Very nice cigar.  I usually get my cigars in bulk from JR Cigars, and their Nicaraguan Rejects/Overruns are pretty good.

    • Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels Users should be able to fully uninstall AI-based features from Android devices and be able to access interoperability functions, free from Google’s verification requirements, the European Commission has heard as part of an Android interoperability consultation under the Digital Markets Act. These measures were proposed by the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) last week when it submitted its documentation. The FSFE noted that Google had started silently installing AI models without telling users. It noted that the EU’s DMA requires companies like Google to allow users to uninstall pre-loaded software from their devices, but in the case of the AI models Google is installing, they reinstall if you delete them, contravening the DMA. To get Google back under control, the FSFE has told the European Commission that there needs to be improvements within the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). First, it said that users should be able to fully remove pre-loaded AI components from their devices, with companies being prohibited from silently reinstalling or reactivating them. Second, access to Android interoperability features should not be contingent on registration, authorization, or contractual relationships with Google. This pertains to Google’s attempt to force developers to register with Google, even to publish apps to alternative app stores like F-Droid. Discussing its submission, Lucas Lasota, FSFE Legal Programme Manager, said: Google is planning to roll out its Android Developer Certification in September 2026. This will force every Android app developer to register with Google before their software can be installed on certified Android devices, but it should affect those who have removed Google Apps from their device. The program is controversial because it entails the signing of contracts and payment of account fees to Google, as well as the handing over of the identities of developers. It said: The FSFE said that if the Commission’s draft measures remain unchanged, then Google will be allowed to make developers verify their identity. The FSFE believes that asking developers to register is contrary to the text and spirit of the law. In summary, the FSFE has told the Commission that no developer should need a Google account, a Play Store presence, or any agreement with Google to access Android’s interoperability features.
