NiMH has been common in consumer batteries for around 15 years (in my experience, although Wikipedia shows the chemistry is way older) but you can still buy the other chemistry (NiCd), and there may be newer lithium rechargables but I haven't seen them in standard sizes (AA etc)

Eneloops set the standard for good quality NiMH batteries for a while, but IKEA Ladda batteries are also NiMH, and probably plenty of others now

Because rechargable batteries before NiMH sucked for many use cases - they were good for the Gameboy as you charged and used them straight away at high draw, but try using one in a low power device like a remote or wall clock and you'll find it is dead in a week despite minimal actual usage

Luckily, a constitution is guaranteed to be an unambiguous representation of inherently true principles that will not be subject to change over time

14 years ago, an Epstein co-conspirator was deposed and refused to answer any questions. A Clinton associate had contact with Epstein within 3 weeks (not minutes, not hours) of a search warrant being executed, so a baseless question was posed that suggested there might have been a tip-off about the warrant. Obviously the question was not answered, and now this article has appeared to revive the baseless suggestion

One of many such scenes in that cave - worth a visit once...

I just seed to 3 - if it's popular it won't take long, and if it's not popular it probably needs the extra help (and it's just one setting)

I actually seed much longer if something still has no other seeds though

Every time I see a study on off-label usage to treat COVID I'm reminded of this (long) piece

Sometimes the wrong medicine in the wrong place has the right effect for the wrong reasons - but I wouldn't bet my life on it
