Note quite what you're use case is, but if you're looking to have something permanently plugged-in without risk (or, at least microscopic risk) of battery swelling/fire, recent models of Samsung phones+tablets have a "Maximum battery protection" mode where you can limit charging to 80%. I use an old Galaxy S22 as a control panel for the solar+inverter+security systems in my travel trailer - its permanently plugged in and just happily hangs on the wall keeping cool and doing its thing.

Electric kettle + Celestial Apple Cinnamon tea in a Yeti thermos. Let brew for 3-4 hours. It is absolutely glorious.

Bluetooth works great. Debian w/ XFCE (pulseaudio). But, there is some config on a fresh install:

# apt install blueman pulseaudio-module-bluetooth  

# nano /etc/pulse/default.pa  
add:  
load-module module-switch-on-connect  

# nano /etc/bluetooth/input.conf  
change:  
IdleTimeout=0  

I've got a Meebook M6 that I'm very happy with. Its basically an e-Ink Android tablet with and SD slot and Google Play, so you can load the Kindle app or whatever you want if you've got that stuff. Most importantly, I use the Moon+ Reader app and load .epub/.cbz/etc formats plus it does an awesome job of reformatting .txt/.pdf/.lit. Bonus for me: Moon+ also supports custom fonts, so I can use Dyslexie.

I had been flip-flopping for a while, but I figured that it was finally time to get off of Digg.

Wherever you go, there you are.

Sounds like people are reporting some of the posts as SPAM/PHISHING... and that there have been enough reports to take down all posts containing links to the municipality.

Actually, Mars was named after its founder, Franklin Clarence Mars.

GO. It's a Federal Government department that is jointly run by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Minister of International Development, and the Minister of International Trade. Putting out travel advisories is part of their mandate.

Yes. 50s. Canada.

I taught myself. I was 19 and working for a small company (3 employees total) and had a van for work for hauling around equipment. My boss called me to his house one day and told me that he was taking the van for a six-week fishing trip. "You can take my BMW. You know how to drive stick, right?" I shook my head "no." "Well, you'll figure it out". Fortunately, he lived in the country so it was all quiet backroads for most of the trip home. By the time I got into the city, I (usually) didn't stall it at traffic lights.

A couple years later, I took a three-day motorcyle (newb to driving licence) course. Three out of fifteen students knew how to drive a manual transmission car. Only the three of us passed and got our licence - the others were having trouble stalling 'cause it was the first time they had ever dealt with a clutch. (note: this was typical, the ones who didn't pass could come back and try the final test again the following weekend).
