I don't personally sleep with my watch on, so I just charge it every night. But it actually only takes about 15 mins to charge a decent amount, so if I did I'd just charge it while I was in the shower...

I haven't used an Android phone for more than about 5 minutes in total ever so perhaps someone more informed in that ecosystem can weigh in, but a quick Google did not find a way. It's also worth checking that the same properties

Congratulations on discovering XKCD 538 [1]. Depending on your exact threat model (i.e. barring a very surprise attack), this actually can be defended against in many cases, too. [1]: https://xkcd.com/538/ [2]: https:

Despite flying at least 10-15 times a month on average, I have actually never seen this happen. Reddit suggests that there is an epidemic of it. The actual problem is an epidemic of terminally online dipshits making mountains out of molehil

While we're on that subject, there is a special place in hell for whoever decided to put stairs with the only backup option being the smallest, slowest lift known to man in St Pancras station. Such idiocy.

Furthermore, how could it without the donation of hardware, licenses and so forth?! This is a problem entirely of the proprietary platforms making, and it should be their customers problem for having made a poor decision.
