This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Our kid's musical plush uses a USB-rechargable battery instead of accumulators (lemmy.world)

I don't know that accumulators have to be rechargeable, just an object that collects (even if only at its initial charge) and stores energy.

It's just not a term I hear often, and I thought it was interesting. I like also hearing about how other countries use the term, it's enlightening. I didn't realize that it is the primary term to refer to a battery in several countries.
