  • Think of it this way - imagine nationally the election is close and how your state distributes EC votes determines the outcome. Let’s further say 70% of your citizens voted for candidate A, but for candidate A to win nationally they need all your EC votes. Given that your state laws should primarily be for the benefit of said state’s citizens, would you really want an outcome that 70% of your state’s voters don’t want? All it would take is one election where this determined the outcome before the voters would make it “winner takes all”.











  • That’s hard for me to answer because I’m usually at home plugged in, and I set the max charge in the bios to only 65% so the battery will physically degrade slower (I don’t need the charge). A few hours is really all I can say with any accuracy. Worth noting a few things -

    1. Since I bought my laptop they came out with an improved battery I could upgrade to, so you’d get a better experience.
    2. I believe(?) battery life is improved a fair bit at least with the AMD ones; less sure on the newer Intel ones.

    I will say that if long battery life is your #1 concern this may not be the laptop for you.
