You should reread the comment you replied to. They never said phone batteries completely discharge. They said users don't see the real "percentage of charge" when a phone "dies". They actually said that the reported 0% isn't actually 0%.

Further, they were accurate about undervolting components. I'll add that the damage would of course happen sooner to the battery than the components, but the point stands. No use throwing shade here.

I would personally take it as a compliment. But then, I like the guy's rants and deep dives into tech. Your mileage (heh) may vary

Something something, going green is expensive?

They were certainly Bethesda games. I'm not even remotely fond of multiplayer fallout. But for 4, it's a marvelous modding world that I've sunk over a thousand hours into.

Someone in marketing thought that sounded cooler and would make more sales

Yeah, I second that. I run the game to a perfectly playable extent, low-to-medium settings, and I have a barely better GPU, 1660-Ti, with a 10th gen laptop i7

What makes you think modders aren't interested in making quests? Have you seen Fusion City Rising for Fallout 4?

I've even made progress on her affinity during this madness!

To be fair, a considerable number of cartoons actively portray exactly that.

Because radio stations' DJs would say "and here's artist with song name", I firmly believed that one of two things must be true:

Radio stations had the bands always playing live for them

And/or

Radio stations would present a local DJ, but they would then tune in to the artist playing the track live for a larger station

What's even funnier about this is that my dad has at the time taught me how to use a tape deck to record radio and CDs to tape. So I clearly understood recording mediums. Just, the idea still lingered in my mind for a while.
