cool.  must be something wrong with gmail then. it's showing twice in my
gmail.  i'm not using git send-email, i'm using mutt configured to send
through gmail.

that's great!  i've sent it in with the changes.


i would like to work on my laptop battery's charge threshold. it can be
changed in the bios, but not while running. there's a project for doing
this on some thinkpads, but not the framework laptop. any pointers for
where to get more info about this would be greatly appreciated.

thanks again!
