They sold 2 of these to Greece.

Yup, they work awesome, it even supports upscaling to 4k direct from the shields GPU, I haven't tried yet as I don't have a 4k tv but it's also nice, my favorite thing about it is the remote, the backligh is a godsend.

I will agree, I got an Nvidia shield pro two years ago, I was a bit afraid because it's a product from 2019, but damn it's been rock solid, it plays everything, it's quite open and not limited like some other boxes, it's even faster than the most Samsung smart TVs that I have tried, I can't recommend it enough, even at the end of 2024 it doesn't have any issues when playing YouTube and Plex.

Stooped caring what other thought, started doing what I liked, took risks.

Well actually no, the battery health is counted in charge circles, so if you charge from 0 to 100 it is one charge, if you charge from 50 to 100, then again from 50 to 100 it is again one charge.

Other than that when you use the battery and let daily to reach 0% it may be over discharged and start creating crystals damaging the battery, the battery would never actually be under 2-5%, but why stress that battery? I'm charging my devices at 20% and it helps with the battery life.

Also if you want long, healthy batteries you shouldn't charge to 100 as not to overcharge but who does that?

Talk about brand loyalty

Well it depends, I had gotten offers double and triple my yearly pay to move to the capital or go outside of my country for a system engineer position. Devops pays more in the US, for around 20-30k MORE per year, but other salaries in the US and other salaries in EU.

Personally I like system engineer/architect jobs more, DevOps is nice but lacks creativity.

Why would you throw them away? It was to be fixed and some one could find a way to make it work.

You do that and then you start smelling like shit, no one would like to be near use, at least use natural shamboo, I had snowlly sculp, with a slightly chemical shamboo 2 times per week and with one natural for the rest of the days I'm fine now and smell like an exotic garden.

I wanted to be a system engineer, I got hired as a devops, I started doing a bit of system engineer, called hr and said that I'm working on infrastructure and I need my title changed or else I won't be able to continue my work, my title was changed, no I do system engineer stuff and less of devops, this was a very rare occasion but it can happen from time to time.

Also, you should never discharge a battery to 0, or do it regularly, as it will damage the battery and make it keep less charge.
