I haven't looked at it before. Apparently if I enable analytics I will get a report saying how many cycles my batter has lasted. Unless I use my phone for several hours of playing spotify and youtube I don't notice the battery dyi

I've used my (original) SE for over 5 years, running it down to the 20% region (often way lower) and back up overnight at least 2000 times. Battery still seems reasonable - health on 79%.

Not convinced HTML2 'gamified' anything. "HTML 1" wasn't really a standard anyway and I don't remember what html2 actually brought - I remember not every browser in the mid 90s did tables, client side image map

I agree, I've used vim for 20 years with very little in my home vimrc file. Indeed I didn't even have a vimrc file until Vim 8 changed a bunch of defaults to make things worse, which almost made me quit, until I realised the alter

Time goes 00:00:00 through 23:59:59 Except when leapseconds come along and make it 23:59:60 And daylight saving skips an hour, or repeats it. AM and PM are really anachronisms though, I don't remember the last time I've ever seen
