  • I want to preface this by saying that I just wanted to share my own experience and point out that not everybody is in the same situation you’re in. You’re treating this like we’re having a debate, and I don’t really know why.

    You skipped the last question. In 10 years or whatever, when you buy another new phone/laptop/literally any electronic device, you’ll be able to charge it with the same charger you already have and won’t have another one filling up your drawers like I do.

    Well, maybe? Considering I only buy phones every 4 or so years, it’s not impossible by that point I’ll need an entirely different charger to get maximum charging speed. Either way, I currently only have the Steam Deck charger, so I’ll need to purchase some.

    Also didn’t reply to the bit about having an actually good and useful charger.

    We’re veering into the realm of the hypothetical since most phone manufacturers don’t include chargers any more, but certainly at least some manufacturers would include full speed chargers with their phones if that was still the trend. I know OnePlus already does, at least for some models?



  • I think I must be you, but from an alternate, worse reality, since I’m in the exact opposite scenario.

    I recently purchased a Steam Deck and a little while after that, a new phone, and currently the Steam Deck charger is only fast charger I have in my home (since I didn’t really have any devices that required them before). This sucks, since now I need to purchase at least two USB-C PD adapters since I need two different chargers for the phone. Obviously this isn’t an insurmountable obstacle, but it definitely would’ve been nice to have at least one included with the phone.


  • Obligatory “I’m not a vegan,” but this comment seems like it’s at least partially mischaracterizing the issue.

    Some of the comments removed seem to advocate for a vegan cat diet that specifically includes the amino acids and protein that cats need, albeit sourced in a vegan-friendly way:

    I am also not a vet (go figure) but this seems reasonable on its face and lines up with the 5 minutes of Google research that I did. It sounds like not all vegan formulated cat food actually strikes the balance cats need and that this diet would need to be balanced very carefully, but it seems possible to do it in a healthy way, especially if done in concert with a vet and frequent checkups.
