Probably not native. In Italian we also say "autonomia" to indicate battery life or distance you can still cover with the fuel in your tank.

My two most notable encounters with yellow jackets (here we call them European wasps or Vespula Germanica) went pretty much like this:

oh shit, there's a wasp buzzing around on my path. Act cool, don't show your fear, just move on and nothing will happen

Wasp: stings

You bitch, just go extinct already

Invest in a solid charger (30-40€ will do). You'll keep it for years, it'll charge an odd number of batteries as well (unlike some cheap ones that only charge in pairs) and it charges just the right amount, then stops. Some even have battery test/discharge function, and charge more than just AA/AAA.

Then invest in a bunch of rechargeables, possibly Eneloops or something good from Amazon.

Now profit for years to come. The planet will thank you as well.

Honestly single use consumer batteries should be banned.

I would start by donating to your home instance, first and foremost.

But yeah if you love the all you're using, whichever it is, donate to its devs, too

This hurts. I still remember when I rendered our first family PC unbootable. It was a Pentium II 266 with a tiny 3GB HDD running Windows 98, and apparently some sub folder of system32 seemed a good place to start doing some clean up to win back some extra space.

Turns out, it wasn't.

Now turns have tabled and I'm the stereotypical IT professional who helps out fixing PCs/smartphones
