It looks to me like the 12v supply already isolates the batteries (some kind of barrel jack with integrated switch), but regardless I would definitely be charging them external to the device. I have a dedicated charger already so it would be quicker and easier to use that and just swap in a new set as needed. I'll be 3D printing adapter housings such as this, so adding a diode into that assembly should be easy enough. Thanks for your advice!
+1 for Kvaesitso. It does some things a little differently so it may take some getting used to, but it makes its own internal kind of sense. Once you get your head around it, it's hard to go back. Has app category support, and my favourite part is that apps can be assigned to more than one category.
As long as you don’t have to use it, its fine to charge money.
Look at the state of gatcha games. Yeah, sure, you technically -can- access all the content without paying, but in practice it's not going to happen in a human lifetime. It isn't that much of a stretch to picture games that are "technically" humanly possible, but so difficult that most people will resort to the AI. Remember the oldschool quarter-eaters in arcades? Same business model but with more steps. I also wouldn't put it past MS to offer "incentives" in the game store for titles with AI integration. Also see the comment upthread about enshittification.
And if you really don't understand the difference between a paid subscription service and a family member, I feel sorry for you.
There's probably something to this. I haven't touched a delivery app in quite a while, but I'd find it very surprising if they didn't employ some kind of dark patterns to keep users coming back.

No place for piss bottles
Lol, there's nothing about this that isn't awesome.
Enemy Territory is still around in the form of ET: Legacy. Not sure how active it is but maybe you could find some willing players on here.
For anyone who misread the title as tragically as I did, 3M is the company. The amount is 2bn.
What? I thought this was a maritime comm.
Curve - Forgotten Sanity
Actually a lot of Curve's catalog probably fits the bill one way or another, but this is the first one that comes to mind.

I've been using AnySoftKeyboard for years and never realised it could do this.
That's a reality glitch, multiple deer occupying the same location.
Personally I can't wait for the delicious irony of using them to move fuel.
It'll end up more like console piracy, where you need a specialised build or custom firmware to do it.
I notice you don't bother to address any of my other points, and boldly declare the time for talking to be over. I suspect that's because you can't.

Yeah this is where it's going. Putting that AI exec in charge of Xbox really paying off for MicroSlop.
Cheats (and big brothers, to an extent, I guess) are free.
So they'll sell you the games, then rent you an AI model to play the games for you.
I can just not play games on my own, for free.
This is either real or a terrifyingly elaborate hoax.

What exactly the fuck does that mean?
