@chipx86 can't really say.. it works.. it is nice having the readout built in but you can buy passthrough USB voltage readouts. It does show estimated runtime in hours/mins which is neat!

@__apf__ The only important thing is learning where the Type 2 chargers are. Charging via old school electrical extension cable at the wall socket is all Type 1 and pretty slow, like 3-5 miles of charge per hour

@Pinboard @mffwww @davidshor The sob story is that voting tribally in perfect unison works a hell of a lot better than dissent when you have a perfect 50-50 split in power. It's not difficult to understand unless... you refuse to acknowledge it.

@brianklaas @Pinboard and when you barely held on to power (50-50 split) voting tribally is CRITICAL. 100% unity is required to do anything. Not sure why he constantly glosses over this.

@brianklaas but @pinboard said "democracy looks so spry" .. because democrats "do nothing", but the reality is that democrats don't vote tribally, hence they don't get 100% perfect unity in the party.
