Also supported on older X series in Linux (the tp_smapi kernel module), and probably on many others. It's also possible to set the thresholds from Windows once and they'll persist even when you turn off the laptop.

Pro tip: if you mostly use your laptop in plugged in mode, set your charging thresholds to 40-50% and your battery will be usable for many years.

Just the other day Russia announced additional cuts in their annual budget. Almost every expenditure was cut across the board, except for the military and propaganda (e.g. Russia Today received a 5 bln increase).

Oh yes, I see now. Actually, that was one of the few things I missed in Blender coming from Softimage. Not too much, though, but I do appreciate the power of a unified editable operation stack/pipeline for bigger projects.

Lukyanenko is hardly "Soviet/Eastern Bloc". He's more of a "present-day Russia" author.

Blender has made a lot of strides in the past few years. Have you tried it recently? My last encounter with blender was in 2008 and it was rather painful. I gave it another try several months ago and got my socks blown off. I've since
