Stupid question from virgin laptop owner (who inherited her father's old work ThinkPad): How does one charge the battery? Does it charge by using it plugged in for a while?
River: The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds given adequate vacuuming systems. Mal: See, morbid and creepifying, I got no problem with, long as she does it quiet-like.

Because books.

Just plug it in. Doesn't matter if it is in use or not.

I woke up early. That almost never happens.
I knew there was a disturbance in the force.
I'm packing up my classroom. I HATE doing this.

Thanks, Gud! Does it follow that the longer it's plugged in, the longer the battery charge, then?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's pretty awsome. It's The Lost Weekend, if the drunk was a housewife. Oh, and what's cool is that all the women at AA are really thin and attractive.

When it's fully charged, then it's fully charged and leaving it in longer won't do any good. I think there is generally a little light that will tell you when it is completely charged, but I know not of how ThinkPads tell you this.

Wow. My company is having a kerfuffle, and fandom isn't. Is it Opposite Day?

Art Crawl!!!
Mile High - I never thought that the Marco-Janis relationship would end up in anything but hurt for Marco; but I had hopes for Jase-Lehahn (sp?).
The LoTR exhibit was lots of fun. Amazing costumes and weapons. Quibbles: why no Eowyn? Faramir? Not even Pippin's guard uniform?
Also, did other buffistas who saw the exhibit give in to the urge to say, "Who's the little fear demon" when coming across orc maquettes. . .because I could not resist.

If it's a ThinkPad, I'm pretty sure there'll be a little battery indicator on the toolbar. FYI, some laptop batteries won't charge to 100% even new.

The status is NOT quo.
Kat, why are you packing up your classroom?
