for want of a nail, the kingdom was... well, not lost, thankfully, but it came dangerously close

Me this morning: I have a 4-hour church leadership Zoom retreat today, which I will be attending from the rental company office because Reasons. My work computer does not have Zoom installed and also has weird sound input/output issues, so I will bring my laptop. My laptop doesn't have access to the company wifi, so I will use my phone as a mobile hotspot. Cool, I have worked out all the necessary pieces!

Me slightly later this morning: Oh fuck I forgot my phone's charge cord.

...

My poor phone was down to 11% battery by the time I got home. Mobile hotspot eats power like nobody's business.
