They are trying *more to be your friend and you treat them as toxic and then abandon them? Hmm. I’d try talking to them about it first. Tell them you don’t appreciate them one upping all your stories.

You're only legally allowed to order/use those boxes for shipping. Not that anyone checks.

Check out that company on Glassdoor. See if others have put details on interviews so you can have a vague idea on what to expect. And so you can possibly prepare ahead of time.
Good luck!

Fels Naptha soap. I've had luck using it to remove old stains after having run an item through the washer and dryer a couple times before noticing the stain. It's cheap, it works, and one bar will last years.

The stuff called Oil Eater might be the more LPT you were looking for, it’s amazing for cleaning up any sort of oil based thing
it’s not harsh at all, and it lives up to its name.

But your charging your iPhone is not enough, even all owners, to reduce expected demand. Second, Apple just reduces it during "peak times" not matter what is actually used for production of electricity

"Fels naptha" is what I used as an oil painter. It's a specialty oil soap.

That's just wrong. Obviously the electrical grid is built to support demand. Secondly, fast charging is more inefficient, that's just physics.
Also, Apple bills this as charging when the grid has more clean energy available.

Reply to comment by kellogg888 in LPT Request: How to talk to a coworker that took credit for your idea? by kellogg888
It is okay to be angry when someone steals your idea and presents it as their own.
When you talk to your co-worker, send an email. Make sure everything is written down. Otherwise, they could potentially run to your boss and say "omg kellogg888 accused me of stealing her idea when it was definitely my idea, and she got really upset and belligerent." And then its just your word against his.

Indeed it is, lipo batteries like to be charged at 1C which is the rate that it would take one hour to charge fully so a 5000mah battery charged at 500ma would take 1 hour. All a fast charge does is charge at a higher C rate which is not good for the batteries lifespan if done repeatedly.
That said the advice I have been given is that if you can do a full discharge and recharge cycle at 1C once or twice a month you should get much better lifespan.

Reply to comment by EvolvingMind in LPT: Increase your afternoon energy by delaying caffeine intake. by EvolvingMind
Link not working, but no worries, no time to listen. I just find all this science on optimizing caffeine drug delivery kind of hilarious. I’ve seen the stuff on cortisol suggesting to wait an hour or two on waking. Not sure if that’s the same as the adenosine stuff. But I mean, it’s a drug. It’s interrupting naturally occurring cycles of cortisol no matter when you drink. It’s somehow more healthy to use coffee as a stop gap between cortisol cycles than as a multiplier during a cortisol cycle? I mean, come on.
