On the other hand, tethering your phone to a particular table in your house might be an advantageous lifestyle choice. &quot;Phones everywhere&quot; is a technical advance, but is it an advantage for <i>your</i> life?<p>We aint obligated to bite every apple offered us.

Superb. Now let&#x27;s see modern laptops actually obey the &quot;sleep&quot; mode when the lid is shut.<p>How many of you have pulled laptops out of your bag to find it&#x27;s been on for hours and its white hot?

My MacBook Pro M1 Pro refuses to charge when plugged in unless it needs to. Apple seemed to fix this with their newer machines.

I just set it to charge to 70%, unless manually overridden.
