Well, I'm assuming that these things that I dislike are actually useful
and liked by the majority (me not fitting that is nothing new). If
everybody hates these things, WTF are they still the default on pretty
much every OS out there, Windows and Mac OS do the same screen dimming
things when they loose AC last time I touched one of them.

Also, whilst I dislike screen dimming with a passion, I wouldn't
actually dislike the power aware balancer (assuming it would actually
work). Then I'm on BAT I tend to not actually do much more than read
email/browse web and maybe write some code. But I rarely if ever compile
when on battery.
