Having had so many laptops with absolutely terrible battery life, I keep forgetting that my ThinkPad has amazing battery life, so I'm always looking to plug it in and didn't even notice that it hadn't even been charging this whole time and I still have an estimated over 4 hours of charge on my decently bright screen setting while I've been sitting here futzing around between containers, the web browser, and various python testing.

@vwbusguy i think my 25 year old thinkpad A22m even when the battery was barely holding on to life still lasted longer than any modern laptop I ever owned

@raptor85 I still don't understand it. I've had work laptops with much larger batteries that only seemed to really last for an hour. The battery on this one isn't notably large and it's a Ryzen 7 PRO, so it's not a lightweight CPU either. My personal laptop is about the same age, has a near identical proc, and maybe an even bigger battery but lasts less than an hour. There's some kind of physics that don't seem to apply to ThinkPads.
