Not an expert but: tldr don't.

Battery calibration is supposed to help the battery's firmware figure out how low the battery can go. It also tends to hurt your battery, so you should avoid performing these calibrations and keep the charge between 20% and 80% as much as you can.

It seems what you're trying to do is improve battery estimation by the OS on a new machine. And in that case, ~~Is just trey trip love~~* I'd just try to live with possible insecurity of not knowing whether the machine has 15 or 25 minutes left.

It's not such a binary thing. For example, you can obtain some, hodl for a bit, and later return them for a profit. It's basically like the stock market, except people refer to the money you get as a "ransom" rather than a "profit" for some reason. What many people outside the industry don't know is that it doesn't officially become a crime until police get involved. So just insist on "No police!" in your sales calls. /s

Seriously. I puked the first few times when I wasn't used to alcohol at all. I also puked once when I drank way too much which is something I never repeated. Beyond that, I didn't puke much.

I guess professional kitchens are often an abusive environment in general where one kind of abuse begets another. But that's still not a obligatory part of the job.

The original version of Java was proprietary. Sun later open-sourced large parts of it but they kept selling a version of Java with a proprietary license. There were also random kerfuffles over the years with IBM and Red Hat who wanted to sell open-source Java into large organizations without giving a cut to Sun/Oracle.

Oracle Java uses a license called "GPL with Classpath Exception", so it's definitely possible to create derivatives of the GPL and name them appropriately.

I never bothered with banking apps. (Outside of the virtual debit card app from my bank. That one did install successfully. However, I never got try out in store because it deleted my virtual card after a few days and I didn't care enough to set it up again.)

I use Calyx on a Fairphone 4. It's not totally degooglified, since it comes with MicroG which is used to connect to Google services. I use Aurora Store and a couple of original Google Apps like Gboard too (none of my Google apps can access the internet, since they're behind the built-in firewall). It works well except call functionality which can be wonky and there's the issue that a lot of apps from Play don't work well with MicroG. I only use a small selection of Play apps though, so it doesn't bother me too much.

A mimosa is excellent for this purpose. And it's pretty too.

Sixpack of beer? (Optionally alcohol-free, if his bad behavior is related to alcohol abuse.)

First off, I hope this question is not too offensive. Discussing technicalities of a genocide will certainly disgust some. I am in no way trying to condone nazi crimes. I am also not sure whether it makes sense to search for rational thought in genocide. Here goes anyway:

Nazi death camps used shower heads to introduce a gas into the gas chambers, thereby killing people. The gas used was Zyklon-B, an industrial product produced by a single supplier, and likely relatively expensive. It also meant that the gas chambers had to be aerated for a number of minutes before soldiers or forced laborers could enter the gas chambers to drag out the corpses.

Why didn't they simply use CO2? It's a byproduct of basically any fire. It's cheap and could have been produced on-site trivially. It's also part of normal air and only toxic in high concentrations, likely meaning less danger to soldiers.

Wondering whether people keep a lot of smelly, unwrapped stuff in there, cleaning schedules, etc.
