Right? Fucking tankies crying tears into an ocean here.

But sometimes, that’s exactly what I want in a game. An interactive story that I can lose myself in for a week or two. I get invested in the characters, the plot, and the conclusion. I stress enough about my own problems that sometimes I need to stress about made up people’s problems.

Would you buy a new battery for a very old laptop?

I just got a pretty good deal on an old ThinkPad (think 10 years old now) to use as a beater for screwing with ArchLinux and hopefully to find a real use for. It’s in great shape like it was never really used, but big shock, the battery is at 50% effective capacity and what’s there disappears in less than an hour....

What kind of terrible advice is this?

Absolutely do not start ripping apart your old laptop battery to replace cells if you don’t know what you’re doing. Depending on the battery size and type, you might also not have many cells at all to replace.

You would be better off buying a cheap replacement battery, especially if it’s already 10 years old. Any cells that aren’t bad today will likely be very soon.

Telling people to pop open a Li-Ion battery is asking for a fire.

What does that have to do with anything? You gave dangerous advice to someone with unknown skill levels for handling batteries.

But yes, I do, and if you don’t know what you’re doing and puncture a cell trying to take the wrap off, you’ll have a bad time. Li-Ion fires are terrifying, and it makes no sense to replace a few cells when you can just get the whole damn battery for a few dollars more and mitigate the risk of burning down your house.

The fuck kind of question is that? Not going to entertain an uneducated troll.

8C is about 46F.

Right from the USDA

Bacteria grows more rapidly in food starting at about 40F.

I think I’ll trust the food safety agency over some random pretentious guy on Lemmy thanks very much.
