Reason for posting this question - my laptop battery died and it turns out the bios gets reset every time I turn it on now.

Made me think of the old phones I have which cannot be repurposed without getting new batteries..

I guess mandating replaceable batteries is enough but IMHO it should go further

Wouldn't using a degraded battery and a constant wired connection already be sufficient for this use case?

[-] Melonpoly@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

No because the battery could potentially start swelling

No, battery will blow up possibly!

I was thinking about using my old android device as home server and now I'm concerned 😥
