Well look at this fat cat here that can afford multiple milks…

Nah, for real, put the newest milk in the back, use up the oldest milk first.

Hard to say, but good curious question…

Yep, been there, tried that. I used to work as a mobile device hardware tech for over a decade, though I didn’t exactly get the opportunity to experiment with every device that came across my bench ya know…

Now that’s a legit idea!

I don’t exactly have spare devices to experiment with, but that’s an awesome idea 👍

My question/idea is to repurpose old devices for home use, even after the battery done went to shit…

Whatever devices that can function without a battery at all would be ideal. You know, something you can use at home to watch videos or whatever…

Nope, so far never seen one work that way, and both me and my roommate have phones with removable batteries, so of course I’ve tried, but no dice, they instantly shut off when power is plugged in but you remove the battery :(

Nah, more thinking towards repurposing old devices with bad batteries for around the house permanently plugged in, without any battery at all.

Not every device absolutely has to be portable, but sadly in all my years of tech, so far (to my knowledge), have I ever run across a mobile device that’ll function without a battery :(

Naw duh. You could probably replace 50 data centers with 12 jumping spider brains, those are some really intelligent critters…

Probably?

That’s not a curious question, that’s a thing you’re supposed to outright know about your bank.

Like fuck, did you store physical things such as gold rings, antique coins, lumps of gold, marriage license, etc in your safety deposit box?

You don’t get your physical things back from an online bank…

Maybe this is more of a personal opinion, but I don’t consider that a proper bank then, if they don’t have a physical brick and mortar office to conduct business with an actual human.

Proper banks do more than money transfers, they also notarize legal documents, which must be done in person. Plus they also offer safety deposit boxes.

That’s always been my preference, just go to the bank in person…

Wait, you have a SIM/eSIM? You bank through your phone?

Well there’s your two main problems right there, separate your banking from your mobile device altogether.

Use saltwater, that’ll work instantly…

They can apparently get into some mischief…

Not OP, but right after Hurricane Katrina, we rescued a young squirrel, not much bigger than the one in OP’s photo. We took care of it for about a week while people were busy cutting fallen trees and cleaning up debris, then we let the little fella go.

He came back damn near every day for about 6 months!

Interesting, I wasn’t aware of that. What sort of ball/fetch toy would you recommend then?

Not like our dog even plays fetch LOL, ours just looks at you stupid like ‘why you throw that?’ 😂

Well this is a bummer, I thought the site would load under Windows 3.11 with Internet Explorer 5… ☹️

Edit: I actually tried LOL!

There’s no such thing as rapidly aging, there’s exactly one year per year, we don’t age any faster nor slower. Declining birth rate, sure, but no such thing as rapidly aging.

That ancient USB to PATA adapter I had, before it got stolen anyways, was actually a repurposed adapter for an external USB 4X CD burner, so it kinda makes sense that it would never support any drives over 128GB (120GB in practice), as it was never actually meant to be used on hard drives in the first place. But for 120GB and less, it worked just fine.

It sucked for me though, as I had and still have a 1.8" 160GB hard drive from an OG iPod 1 and all the other relevant adapters to connect it to 2.5" PATA. Also sadly, my old Dell B130 apparently also has the 120/128GB firmware limit, so I can’t even use it natively, I had sooo wanted to upgrade that thing from 80GB to 160GB…
