STEVEN W, BALLARAT The battery on my mobile is draining fast!

You’re over-hammering the processor by playing games with no reward other than quieting voices in your head

ACome on, you can’t keep taking Guru up this road. Really. You’re not stupid. You know each one of the answers. The battery is old. The screen’s too bright. The Wi-Fi’s constantly seeking a network it can’t find. You’re over-hammering the processor by playing pointless games with no reward other than quieting the voices in your head, which is possibly a valuable reward on its own, Guru must admit. Also, maybe there’s something using data in the background, that sort of thing. Phone batteries are getting bigger, but no giant change is coming soon, so grab a battery case or pack and just keep juicing ’til you can’t no more.
