You don't have to toss the phone. You can replace the battery with aftermarket one yourself, pay someone to do it for you or sell the Nexus 6 on second-hand market so that the new owner will deal with it. There are still legal issues,

It likely doesn't. We have a relatively small (European-sized) fridge that, according to EU energy label, should consume 183kWh a year or 0.5kWh a day. I was surprised when the real consumption I measured during normal use, set at 2.5°

Probably one of the extensions was the culprit. But clearly it's not about the number of rules and crippling that functionality would not bring performance benefit. Ublock origin is pretty lightweight even with 500,000 rules applied.

I doubt that 90,000 rules were an issue. On 12 year old laptop (thinkpad x230) with 260,000 ublock rules (+240,000 cosmetic) the slowdown is imperceptible. Contrary, ad-ridden websites load much faster.

Yea, that was weirdly worded sentence. Peltier cooling can probably be more efficient (not clear) when there's low temperature difference so if one wants slightly colder drinks than the room temperature there's an advantage. E: As

Most people have day jobs they are better at instead - it's still a day job for the most talented/dedicated. Great photographers and modern musicians would have likely been mediocre painters / live musicians.

Capitalism requires competition and there is little competition in anything google does. That's in large part due to how heavily "subsidized" they became thanks to governments "overlooking" blatant tax avoidance.
