Using a laptop without a battery is quite a curious experience so far. I really have to think carefully about changing context, because moving the laptop means shutting down gracefully, then booting later.

I wonder how long I'll need to do this.

I'm so happy that I have the slack it takes for this to be a curiosity or a mild annoyance, rather than a problem.

@jbrains if your laptop is capable of it you may find that "hibernate to disk" is an option that doesn't lose all your app/editor state and still doesn't need a battery

@dan @jbrains Just consider it time travel back to the age of desktop computers.

@sleepyfox @jbrains these days I suspend my desktop computer as well, when I'm not in front of it
