  1. Learn to read. Of the 102 Watts the power supply draws only 95 reach the battery. So that's 10 watt shy of the 105 (70+35) Watts needed, ergo the battery drains when playing Destiny 2. Nothing more, nothing less.

  2. ...has a one-word forecast...

    He sure uses a lot of words in his one-word forecast.

  3. A double bed is nothing more than 4 boards, and a lot of slats. It will easily fit in a couple of boxes, even if they are just a foot wide.

    Not true. Dogs are not obligate carnivores. Even wolves routinely supplement their diet with fruits and vegetables in the wild.

    Stop eating avocados. Stop eating food with palm oil. Stop eating cows. Stop eating any kind of meat. I think I might as well just stop eating...

  12. Aldi in the Netherlands does scan its products, the cashier does not have to enter a code for every product. They used to do that, and I must say the old method was a lot faster.

    Yeah, if I buy a new router/access point AND a device that both have this new chip. My guess for most this will rather be later than soon.
