Have you noticed that 90% of the 30-day fscks on laptop boot happen when it's on battery power? Even if it's only on battery power 50% of the time. One of these days I need to fix it so that ctrl-c makes it cleanly abort, rather than mount the disk read-only and fail to boot.
Also, Amazon prime is super dangerous. I tried their free trial and bought a large amount more books and stuff online than I usually would. Their usual free shipping requires bundling things up over time, and delays the instant gratification by shipping slowly. That tends to discourage impulse buys very nicely. Which is a weird decision for a company to make.
