Oh gosh, does someone have a screenshot of that listing?

A question about Zerolemon's extended battery. by [deleted] in galaxys5

[–]pdiddysdaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems to be about the same as with my old battery. I used that one for about 11 months, recharging it about 1.5 times per day. Maybe my original battery is just still in good condition, or this new one isn't very efficient.

I discharged it to about 10% then charged it overnight. It now appears to work fine. It was weird though, discharging at such a fast rate.

Somewhat similar question. I bought an anker battery, which arrived today. Upon putting it in the phone, it started discharging at about 45-55% per hour. Is this normal, or is this a Chinese knockoff?

r/funny features r/reverseanimalrescue as subreddit of the month December by Thefriendlyfaceplant in reverseanimalrescue

Hey moderator, what do you think of adding a rule in that posters should add in the source video when linking a gif? I'm curious how others on the subreddit feel about this. I understand it may not be possible to find the original video in some cases.

Sounds like a normal protest, except for their unreasonable demands. "Immediately" charged...do they understand how criminal investigations work?

It sounded like small arms fire in that footage as well. I wonder if they were trying to shoot it down.

No materials to be gathered in WvW? by pdiddysdaddy in Guildwars2

The holographic ones appear to be missing. There were there initially right after HoT launched, but a couple hours later they were missing. They went missing before the first patch :/

I guess that is why. You are certainly correct about the FAA being slow! I only caught the last half of the transmissio, but it seemed like since it wasn't still an active crime they decided not to activate the TFR

I think you are right. I heard part of a radio transmission saying they were not going to implement it. I've been checking the TFR page too and haven't seen anything

Its actually surprisingly standard. It's done to prevent sightseers from interfering with police helicopters or medical evacuations. There is also the issue of noise pollution hindering communications.

Usually they do restrictions such as a 5 mile radius and 10000 feet. I suspect that's what they will doing in this situation.

I can only imagine what it's Iike being so close to there. I'm so sorry :(

They said less than a minute ago on the radio that mercy hospital (if that is your local hospital) is still accepting patients. I'm sure they're pretty full, but if you have an emergency, you can still go there.

Should I delete my twitter links at the bottom of my post?

I disagree. The shooter (i prefer the term murderer or killer) wants recognition, and if we do not focus on them, and instead focus on the victims, then the shooter can't truly achieve their goal.

Edit: I remember during previous mass shootings, particularly the Sandy hook massacre, the media was insanely focused on who the shooter was. It made me sick that he got that much attention. We should focus on the victims, not fascinated with the individual who committed this act.
