     @thor @vriska Just keep plugging away at it when you can steal a few hours a day and you'll get there. Sometimes it helps to be able to sit on a scene and then it'll come more easily to write. If you spend a lot of time on social media, you have enough time to be plugging away at a novel IMO. Sometimes I have to pry myself away. Hope it works out when you get around to it.

     @vriska You've chosen a very tricky job. I can't get myself together enough to write a novel or some kind of book, but it's on the bucket list. My personality is that I watch and I write it down.

     @vriska You're looking at different and capricious right here. Maybe one knows one when one sees one.

     @thor I do, but I'm always happy to have extra eyes on my work, if you're interested! I'm also sitting on two half finished manuscripts instead of one finished draft, but hey, you know it is with art

     @vriska I didn't know you were a novelist, but it makes sense. You're enjoying wordplay. Do you have an editor?

     @vriska The English language is so confusing, because first it starts off with fun, and then a sentence. How many years have you been sentenced to?

     @vriska I think the point I was getting at is that you could make a charger, with the right materials.

     @vriska Your laptop needs about 12-24 volts of power. The power out of the socket is 240V.

     So you need to take a big magnet and wind some wires around it.

     You want 10:1 to get 24V. but that's not 100% true. They measure volts in two different ways.

     240V AC is 340V DC.

     So, 340 down to 24 is 14 times.

     On one side of the magnet, there needs to be 14 times as many windings as on the other side.

     Also, the copper can't touch the magnet, so it needs coating.

     @vriska If the laptop charger needs an operating system, we're in deep shit.
