      The option is free but you may experience decreased performance and premature battery death

      Edit: I forgot about the Cocaine and Caffeine aftermarket mod. Good performance but fries your processor.

        Most fast charging modes aren’t really fast charging anyway, it just distorts the meter so it reads as “fully charged” and ends the charging cycle when the battery is still at 50% or less. That’s where most of the performance issues come from IMO, people thinking they’re on a full charge when they’re in power saving mode.

        Ditto. Know such a person. They literally only sleep 4 hours a day and assume everyone else does despite massive lifelong evidence of the contrary.

        They’ve resorted to working night shifts to avoid going insane from boredom, they sleep from 9AM to around 12-1PM every day, and then STAY AWAKE. IT’S BEEN DECADES.

        I’m still wondering if they’ll die a premature death or if this’ll just pan out for them; the one thing I’ve noticed is their attention span got shot as they grew older, so maybe that’s the trade-off

        I know such a guy. Survives on like 2 hours a day and was one of the most energetic people I’ve seen at 55 y.o.
