Reply to comment by freeshavocadew in Summer sweetness: oversupply of mangoes sees prices plummet across Australia by Lakerlion

As someone in ND, I also experience this annoyance. I didn't try mangos until I went to college and they had them at a salad bar (they were frozen before being thawed out) I had to ask what they were. They were delicious. Haven't had any good ones since then. I actually went to a walmart once and saw some and figured why not (they were green) and waited a long time for them to "ripen" only to be told they were mainly for cooking. -_-

Hasn't it already been shown a number of times that fast charging of batteries is bad for the batteries in the long run? Unless there is new techniques or something that doesn't damage the battery in the long term that I have yet seen/heard about idk why people get so excited about fast charging all the time if your gonna have to replace the batteries much sooner.

Like maybe if it's an emergency and you need to charge your battery quickly to get to some appointment early or something than yeah. But seems like so many idiots want to fast charge their batteries ALL the time cause they don't want to sit around for an hour or so.
