@malwareminigun friend, you gotta look past the technological impacts of what's in your pockets, on your desks, where ever, and rediscover that whimsy we lost sometime ago when computers stopped being fun and just became gray, faceless, containers for broken software. A device that we can ascribe a human activity like "ugh this tastes terrible!" is so much more fun than "VIRUS DETECTED IN USB E:"

@jgilbert OK by this metric the joyless souless husk is me, not you. But I still think things have gotten blown way out of proportion here. I'm just trying to counter the myth I see all over the place asking for automatically detaching chargers when batteries are full based on a belief that it is more efficient to do that (because it is a mistaken belief).
