imagine juicing up a credit-card-thin phone in less than a second

I'd like to, but my fuses just blew, the connector in the phone melted down, there's a smell of burning plastic insulation in my room, and a small fire seems to have started burning here, so I have other things on my mind!

Why is this rated funny instead of insightful? Moving more energy in less time is going to generate heat, lots of heat.

Also, instead of flawed batteries that seriously overheat we could have flawed batteries that explode.

The Debian silliness is the cold adherence to free software. A Debian desktop needs a lot of tweeking before stuff "just works" (like Flash). Debian also lags behind other distributions because they prioritize stability over cutting edge features. ( ... unless you use the Test version.)

I understand and accept that I have to do those tweeks, but I think I'm the exception.

On the server side, I really appreciate the stodgy Debian way. Solid uptime rocks!

It's 2/3/11. How long before I read this again?

Today is a good day for information-gathering. Read someone else's mail file.
