My first really great stock pick. Except I failed to get out in time.
Yes. If you are any kind of timer you have to be right twice. When to get in / out. And, the opposite.

It did look like Russian to me. But I'm terrible at languages. You knew it was Russian for certain?

Doesn't one have to constantly monitor the device to stop it from going to 100%. I always charge my phone, iPads, iPad mini, Amazon Fire tablet to 100%. The two iPad 1's are still going strong, each with excellent battery life. However, my phones. Bought my first Motorola in 2018. Second in 2021. In...
