    Those chargers are really dangerous. It is technically possible to recharge a disposable alkaline battery a few times, but you’re never going to get more than a half charge, and it will fuck up the internal chemistry turning each battery into a tiny potential pipe bomb.

      I had a babysitter that used to do that. Even 7-year-old me thought that was a bad idea but she insisted that it was fine.

      I wonder what happened to her. I hope she didn’t accidentally harm a kid in an unintentional D-cell-powered terrorist attack.
