I have been hearing more frequently the narrative that women's sport apparently exists as a 'protected category' so that women can win (because on this account without it no woman will ever win again)

This is: a) *not* the reason why women's sport exists as a category,

I have to share this German video about ADHD (ADHS) because it’s calling me out in the literal first 5 seconds. I bought several kilos of clay and a whole kiln just to abandon pottery as a hobby before I have finished a single piece 😹

not any logic flashing but a clearly-something-wrong-with-the-power pulsating, but since the brick happily powers the pc alone, i'm betting there's something bad with the battery charging circuitry in the laptop...

Show thread

what i did find out however, is that while this charger happily keeps the laptop on at high performance (discrete GPU on, high brightness.. haven't run loads yet though, if i plug both AC and battery in with the laptop off, the LED in the AC charger starts flashing...

well this was a productive waste of time: i managed to replace the 2kOhm charger identification resistor in the plug with a 1kOhm one (make it identify as a 135w instead of 170w) because i thought that would help, but it didn't

i've been trying to look all over for this without any success. there's no error messages, no "plugged in but not charging". if i turn the laptop on with only the charger, it shows as plugged in, and then as soon as i slide the battery in, it's no longer plugged in

i just got a thinkpad T440p and an aftermarket 170W charger, but it won't charge the battery in it. laptop powers on without issues either from battery, or from the charger, but once both are in, it treats it like the charger isn't there. is there a fix?

oh my goodness the mystery has been solved 😭 @Mermaids_Gender@twitter.com sent me a thank you card and some goodies for the fundraiser marathon we did last year for !!! thank you so much!

please, donate to them if you can!
