Android has something similar. A notification pops up when I plug in at night, letting me know that it's charging slowly because I usually leave it plugged in overnight, and that I can disable it (once or permanently) to switch to fast

It took me a minute to fully get this, so I'm adding this so it's a bit more obvious for anyone else: the piece of paper is much larger than the picture/book so that it can hide the book's relative position underneath it

If you're human, you aren't an obligate carnivore, because humans can live healthily on a fully vegan diet. Animal products (meat, dairy, eggs) certainly gave pre-industrial humans a big boost as a dense and (at times) readily ava

I can prove that I am conscious, at least to my satisfaction, because I can think the thought "I am conscious". Outward behavior of other humans also proves to my satisfaction that they're conscious. And when interacting with

I can't help but believe that people who think animals aren't conscious are starting from that assumption. If you start from the belief that there's some inherent "human-ness" (soul, etc), then nothing you see will

Android does have other appstores though. Samsung has one for their phones, and Amazon has had an openly available one for well over a decade (wikipedia says 2011, which tracks with when I remember first using it). Epic wants one, but pur

But people are fairly localized to places where there's land. To pick a somewhat extreme example, the pacific ocean doesn't have a lot of places to put solar panels to sell energy to Europe at night.

I think that many struggle to understand because they think something like "how would it feel to want to be a woman", rather than flip it to their gender. So if you're a cis man, try to imagine you were a trans man; born fema

Lots of the comments are salty about the question's formulation, but it seems really straightforward to me within a couple sentences. I guessed Cuba, which was a too aggressive with the curve, but not too bad conceptually.

It's not like this is a uniquely Google-y model, it's just a fitbit. Based on their past history of dropping support for legacy devices, I'd expect it to remain supported for a minimum of 5 years, but maybe a decade or more.

Yes, definitely agreed. My wife and I haven't ever used a public charger with just a 120V outlet in our garage, and I suspect that would apply to many other people as well. For a great many more, a 240V charger is easily installable in
