For lithium batteries (phone batteries) it's actually more important than draining to 0. Many studies indicate that the average phone battery should last several thousand cycles while only losing 5-10% of total capacity provided it is never charged above 80%. Minimum % (even down to 0%) and charge rate below 70% is also unrestricted.

The tl;dr is that everytime you charge to 100% is the same as 50-100 charges to 80%. Draining a lithium chemistry battery to 0 isn't an issue as long as you don't leave it in a discharged state (immediately charging).

This was me in 2013...

I... Mean... You obviously don't, but whatever.

Sorry. I apologize.

It's frustrating trying to explain the same thing over and over again...

The tokens are how drm works. The process of DRM is token validation and enforcement of intellectual property rights granted by tokens.

I don't know how else to explain it. It feels like I am back at my original post. I don't know if you understand any better or if you still have misconceptions about what NFTs are or what DRM is or if you still think there is some magic in NFTs.

Again, all of this already existed and will continue to exist with or without blockchain. There is very little novel in the implementation details of the tokens. The people who got the idea for "nft"s didn't come up with a new idea. This isn't some new math. The only portion of NFTs that is new is the cooperative signing... Which again, isn't a new concept either.

Right now, everything you described... Literally all of it... Ubisoft implements for their launcher and enforce with their drm solution.

Nfts, digital tokens, already exist. Their use, in the protection of copyright, is called drm. "Nfts" bring nothing new to the table of digital rights or copyright... And a whole host of stupidity.

To be clear, it is kinder. Not much, but it absolutely is kinder. Pasture raised is what free range should have meant... But fortunately we have a word for it now.

I think it's important to remember that people aren't becoming more LGBTQ+, it's that previous generations were so oppressed that coming out was impossible.

It's common to see these kinds of graphs used in some twisted ways. People are being allowed to be themselves. We have a historical president for graphs like this with left handedness. Once we stopped murdering, beating or ostracizing people for being left-handed, we saw "huge spikes" of people being left-handed.

Be yourself. Be loved. You aren't alone.

Generally yes with two huge caveats.

First, It has been widely demonstrated that diverse teams are more productive and produce higher quality products than homogeneous teams.

Second, selection criteria is heavily biased towards homogeneous teams and has also been demonstrated to stifle innovation.

Desire/inspiration is nearly as important as capability and non-optimal teams (according to most, if not all selection criteria) will consistently outperform "optimal" teams in any tasks that require innovation.

Without knowing the exact model it's difficult to know for certain but you can buy off brand refill kits with chips. The printer may intentionally degrade quality with the aftermarket chips (and may never reset itself even if you return to official toner)... HP is just a terrible company.

Have LTS kernels started backporting non security fixes like this? To be fair I haven't looked at this in over a decade but this kind of patch wouldn't have been backported then.

This is one of those comments that causes Arch to get the reputation that it does. You aren't wrong and you probably don't intend to be off-putting but here we are.
