I see. Thanks for breaking it down for me. So the Innovation is that apple is selling a single cell +20wh battery, that can be legally limited to below 20wh?

Speaking of using Chinese batteries in ROW phones: the cables are shorter on Chinese high capacity single cell batteries, so you can't exchange them in your European phone.

How is this new? There are plenty of Chinese phones with high capacity batteries. My current Xiaomi 15t pro as a example has a 5500mah, 3.93vdc battery (that's 21.62wh). And they just all shipping fine...

You can still buy the cod liver zinc oxide cream in Germany for "equestrian" usage.

Is this malicious? It's right there, first sentence "I drove an i3 rex, first generation"

And I was driving the 2013. So I rest my case.

First generation? According to Wikipedia and the few websites I could find, in American models, the rex had a different control setup that was simpler then here in Germany.

I drove an i3 rex, first generation. The gas motorcycle engine loved breaking down, due to disuse. Such an unreliable offence of crap. According to the dealership mechanic, the engine was packaged in a way that made the fluids collect in places they shouldn't.

Sounds like a Xiaomi / amazfit kinda thing. You can get some amazing deals, or just check out AliExpress.

Gods, this is giving me flashbacks. I had to find a usb-c to display port 1.4a cable for my Gsync Ultimate screen with 240hz. I tried out I think 10 different cables, before I found one that actually worked....
Then don't buy it through steam. Just buy it through a third party like greenmangaming. Valve gets zero cut there.
A SEPA Transfer message is limited to 140 symbols. This is 132. I just tried the exact phishing message in an internal booking from one of my accounts to another, and it went through without issue.
I guess I just missed that?! I'm running a mix of Adguard and nextdns blockers on some of my mobile devices, and both are apparently handling the DoH issue for you; by just blanket blocking the resolvers and/or ports, to force a fallback.... I need a Beer.
So, what's next? Will Chrome ship with hard coded DNS, so that DNS based adblockers will stop working as well? Where (and when) does my rights what to display on my devices end?
It's probably a Lenovo board, which usually has most of the IO on a daughter board connected to the Mainboard. Only the USB-C that had the display port/HDMI alt mode sits on the Mainboard.
