not called Brad but rather a lad, from Bradford in the UK.

Enjoys breaking apps, escooters, spam rings and sometimes bones, but not my own. That sucks.

  • I usually limit it to 80% during the summer, but because I work outside and through the night too my battery can reach very low temperature levels which absolutely hammers my battery life so I let it charge to 100% / or just to warm it up via a small powerbank on my FLT sometimes during the winter months.

    As for longevity? I usually go through a phone every year or two so I don’t see the wear of of what others are saying in here using their phone for over two years (that’s my max), but I feel the 20/80% guideline is a fair one to go by since the reported 100% isn’t fully accurate anyway.



  • I’ve also been using Linux for a similar amount of time, and it’s only at work now I have to use Windows.

    And as for home users using Linux? I have a few family members quite happy with Ubuntu / Firefox since all they need is a browser and VLC for their “PC”, so I don’t know where you got that “it’ll never get there” metric from.

    Alright they don’t have a clue how Jellyfin works on that box, but they sure do appreciate and use it a lot these days now they’ve got used to it / dumping Netflix.

    This sounds like the scare tactics they use for TV licensing here in the UK and is telling by how they change the letters to “The Occupier” after no replies to their scam.

    Knock knock knock through the day / evening when housewife’s are about and they prowl like fuckers. I had the opportunity to scare one away when they didn’t expect it (really didn’t like the fact that however much they asked for “my name” they got a blank look) and they ain’t been back for years :/

    Fuck Capita for scaring old ladies and fellow sailors.
