Shouting warm takes into the void, mostly about gaming and tech.
Mine’s never done great without a wall outlet to be honest. With a laptop charger it takes like 45 minutes, with a phone charger it’ll take 2 hours if I’m not playing on it. Tbh that’s based on plugging it into cigarette lighter chargers so idk about on a plane

In my experience it’s pretty slow to charge on a plane but on a long enough flight it’ll work

Just beat Cyberpunk. On normal difficulty I died 5 times on main quests, and three of those were the final boss. I was “underleveled” too. Never got lost. Like it was super fun but it for sure holds your hand

Cobalt isn’t as widely used as it once was but it’s still pretty huge.

Passenger cars make up like 10% of emissions globally. If we can convert to EVs entirely we’re optimistically looking at cutting that in half. Switching to EVs is a step in the right direction but it’s probably not saving many lives. Choosing not to support child labor is.

let's be honest, most EV haters hate EVs because big V8s sound cool.

According to this list, yes, primarily working with aluminum. The big thing that children are producing for EVs is Cobalt which is used in the batteries, and they're producing more cobalt than aluminum. Ramping up EV production means ramping up demand for child labor.

You are correct in that it doesn't account for what happens when you throw away batteries, but as of right now you can recycle most of the battery so I don't think that's enough to say we need to stick to ICE.

40% is a guestimate because I don't know the actual proven number, in some places it could be like 70%. Its really dependent on where you live and therefore what your power grid looks like. Here's a link to a bloomberg article that does a good job explaining it.

No Doubt About It: EVs Really Are Cleaner Than Gas Cars | BloombergNEF
As electric vehicles become a bigger part of the global car fleet, a contrarian take seems to surface every few months: are electric vehicles really that clean?

Fair enough. It is important to note that the biggest difference between most distros is just the package manager and DE, once you've tried one Arch-based distro or one Debian-based distro you've really tried them all with enough tweaking.

This is actually a proven number, EVs are actually about 40% cleaner on average I believe. Certainly an improvement although not quite the magic bullet to climate change people seem to see.
My bigger concern is the child labor and unethical working conditions utilized to make these batteries.

and tbf you don't need more than 60fps if you're doing standard office work, having more is just burning electricity which across millions of office workers is pretty bad for the environment.

Some WMs will set the refresh rate to the highest one rather than the EDID "preferred" one though, if you're using Gnome in particular I think it does this.
The reason Windows chooses the preferred rather than the max is cause it can cause issues occasionally, not really their fault

Windows is actually pretty decent at detecting this from EDID data. If you're using DisplayPort it will almost certainly set it to the maximum refresh rate because the max will be the preferred setting in the EDID data. If you're using HDMI though a lot of times the EDID says to set it to 60.
