Ah, I didn't knew there was a president in America that made the mistake of paraphrasing it like that. Shame on americans that keep bein' fooled in that fake democracy :P

I can't read this. The saying I know is probably Roman: "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me".

Adding a high quality smart switch to a 5-year old battery might do some good, of course. But this is a cluster of old batteries, all in bad shape for many years of usage under different circumstances, temperatures, etc. And they're all different models. Each battery will need a different time for going from 20 to 80%... it's wild.

I do this kind of risk assessment on the worst scenario, a fire could turn your home into ashes. The only option to me, being strict, would be removing those batteries (after all, your main goal is to re-use the other hardware.) But that's only possible in a handful of phone models... it's just unfortunate. I guess I should get a FairPhone next time!

This doesn't address the fire hazard at all.

I havent read the paper and surely he did a great job. Regardless of that, and in principle, anyone can do this in less than hour. The trick is to get an external confirmstion for all the discoveries you've made.

That's probably the pricing before including anything (cpu, ram, ssd, ports.)

Now that's some fragile masculinity

Yet, somehow, my brain managed to think the sentence was referring to people from the Middle Age... In hindsight, these are rather young :)

The more reason to get a Steam Deck.

Yup. Best firefox extension after uBO. If I had to pick a third one it would be Privacy Badger, although it breaks some sites.
