A visionary would paint himself on the other side of the bars.

Man I used to do it when i was younger up until the end of hs. I did it to get good grades. The thing is you have to give your body rest. When I got older I regretted it so much.

Do I get it covered up with the red one when I die? Or just sharpie it on for the funeral. Don't wanna waste money.

I see a little depressed city in Belarus, where my mood depends on weather. Where the sun rarely peeks out from behind the clouds.

‘lion battery’ put the coolest image in my head

I guess it doesn't add to the discussion

Your area. And not having a degree, even a "bad" one. Maybe you're in an unlucky country.

i’ll be recharging every 10 minutes

I want to go deeper and appreciate how this comic isn't about comparison, but creating, regardless of your outlook. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" is a saying similar to this one. If one finds expression in the bars, and one the landscape beyond, who can say which one instills deeper meaning to the artist? The point is to create.

Fun fact, Lithium-ion batteries chemically degrade if discharged to very low voltages, and can't retain the same charge as before. The percentage you see on your phone, is just a representation of the voltage that the chemical reaction inside your battery is having.

If your battery is discharged very often past certain "percentage", say for example, you discharge it all they way to 0% every single time, it will lose its ability to retain charge the same way it did.

The body is in a way a battery, an ongoing chemical reaction, just infinitely more complex, but the principle is the same, if you "discharge" your battery to 0% every day, you are definitely not going to make it to 100 years, guaranteed.

Fat/bald guys always getting portrayed like this smh

But, but, but…is it not better for the battery if you only charge it once it‘s fully depleted?

What happens when you're in the negative?

This is awesome. :)

You're welcome!

This would actually be the moment I wake up. Sigh

I don't think I was necessarily trained that way but that is just how I have always done it. I work until exhaustion, then pass out for a couple few hours, rinse and repeat. It was easy to do in my 20s. Now not so much

Do you lie down while doing this?

Also, if you are mentally or physically unwell, your battery can only charge at say 60%. No matter how much you recharge.

this is patently ridiculous. In your original comment you you replied to me saying not to deep discharge with

> but you can discharge as low as you want.

Only now have you shifted your argent to '25% is ok'.

> 500 cycles to 70% if you discharge 100% every time, not your 500 cycles to 80% claim.

I used 500 to 80% instead of 300 to 70% because the better number for standard discharge is better for your position not mine lmao, if you try to recalculate with the worse standard numbers, it just increases the amount that avoiding full discharge saves.

The point being It does not prove anything about discharging to 0%. If you want to tell people not to discharge below 25% instead of below 40% that is one thing, but you have explicitly claimed multiple times that you can discharge as far as you want , which as I have previously explained is demonstrably false using your own data.

> As for the extra protection phones have.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutoff_voltage which cites http://www.ibt-power.com/Battery_packs/Li_Ion/Lithium_ion_tech.html as it's source. This shows a cutoff of 3v, although it also says manufacturers set this limit themselves which is kind of obvious. I doubt they set the limit just above what kills the phone, otherwise we'd hear of phones being replaced every few months instead of every 2 years as normal. I also never did claim phones have extra protection, just that they have a BMS that protects them from full discharges. Again with the strawman arguments...

There is no strawman argument, you explcitly stated

>super well protected against this type of damage and often stop battery draw well before the battery actually loses all charge.

The term "super well" implies additional protection beyond what is normal. Furthermore you have again linked to a source disproves your own argument. Your entire argument is predicated on the idea that the low voltage protection will shut down the battery with a significant buffer before 0 charge. The graph in your own second link that at a 0.2c discharge rate (which translates to a 5 hour battery life, so in a phone itd be even lower discharge rate), there is 3% energy left at a 3v cutoff. This literally proves what I said in the previous comment

> If you actually go look at a lithium ion discharge graph, as current draw decreases, the voltage curve shifts upward and rightwards. This means that as discharge reduces , the state of charge that a voltage represents is lower and lower. Phones are a low power, high energy application, which means that even if you set the lvp to 3v, a full 0.5v over 2.5v, it represents very little remaining energy.

Furthermore,

> Lots of people believe a lot of things, to argue otherwise is nonsensical

In this very thread there are plenty of people arguing that memory effect needs to be avoided, and 0 people arguing that it is as you put it " catastrophically damaging", only more wear. Even battery myth articles commonly address the memory effect idea, not whatever youre saying.

>Best thing you can do for a lithium ion battery is to not go below 40% or 30%.

Wait, really? I hadn’t heard this part. It’s bad to discharge a lion battery too much?

kids these days...

There’s always reality

actually, its better for your battery to charge it when it gets low, and it takes longer to store energy the higher charge you get
