I’ve helped my parents with a NAS for there Fotos, so they don’t lose them.

I also included a extra drive, and set up a reverse proxy to our home.

We have one with a seat heater

U = R x I

volts (U, probably 19VDC) is constant. The laptop has a resistance ®. This means that the laptop has already dictated the amount of currents (I) that it pulls. You can connect an 100A charger to an phone. The phone dictates howmuch it actually pulling. There is no battery damage/harm in doing so.

If you charge a battery at full-speed, It can heat up. This is in the long term bad for (Lithium) batteries. That’s where the myth might come from?

*fixed formula order

For USB-C: Tiny little side note here, there are some cheap small-size adapters that overheat. Some adapters thotle down, but some rare ones just blink power on and off, which is bad for lithium batteries.

Search a good brand, preferably reviewed, and GAN-type. Spend a bit more than the cheapest. Check if it has the right protocol (probably Power Delivery at some voltage) to make sure it charges at a normal speed.

For a DC charger like OP asked. Match polarity, match Voltage. And at least match the current/watage to make sure you can charge in a reasonable amount of time

Subscriptions aren’t the only sustainable model. Linux, Blender, VLC are actively maintained without requiring every user to pay a recurring fee. They rely mostly on donations, or one-time funding. And it works

A subscription may be a good model for some apps where they have high user-level server cost. But anywhere else I refuse

Let me correct that for you:

“USA taxes are hard”

Yhea I prefer my tax return to be error-free

‘doesn’t make there products intentionally shit’ and ‘competition shoots themzelfs in the head’. I think I know why they are winning the race

I have a stack of Google Home minis, and it’s a pile of trash Im trying to get away from.

You ask it to play music, it says “ok” and then just do nothing at all.

And these days it has the nifty AI stuff in it to. So it hallucinates some answers too!

You really think I’m looking forward to a new speaker from Google?

Per view, YouTube premium pays more then add supported ones. How much exactly I dont know.

But it’s all relative. For example Patrion would be a much better way of supporting a creator

A battery is energy per volume.

So instead of buying a big battery, we have a small one and all the devices go along with it. The house and water is heated when the battery is charging. And the setpoint is lowered when energy is expensive.

This extends our our “battery capacity” without the investment into more electrical batteries

The first 3 are me, the 4th I haven’t done (yet)

This is (currently) only for US people

A pro is that is not Windows 11

I would fail my exams if I was blindfolded

We managed to get 12 generations into our family tree. I can confirm there are more name changes and weird things happening than you think. We definitely kinda used to do this…

My dad had a phone that did not ring anymore at work, made an IT ticked but they closed it with “tried to contact. customer, but does not pick up”. He just walk over friendly asking what’s up with closing the ticket…

Fun fact, for a long time in history minus (-1) did not exist

You forgot the 1/3 part (hope that is the brain part)

I’ve found our UK friend
