Well, I guess I'll be disabling my Telegram account finally. The only thing left that I was doing on it was automatic notifications from the services on my home NAS. Not sure what I'll do instead. Maybe Matrix?

Meshtastic is great, but it needs more people using it. Lilygo T-Deck with the latest firmware makes it a fully self-contained off-the-grid solution.
Not sure about your situation specifically, but restaurants requiring a credit card during reservation is on the rise to combat reservation scalping and the no-shows that res scalping causes.
Lithium batteries must have some charge, otherwise they break down chemically. Typically, it's around 40-50% charge, but varies with the exact chemistry of the battery.
And, yes, higher charge means more violent reaction to fire and being punctured for most lithium battery chemistries.
I'm not sure about other chemistries, like NiMH and sodium, that have been used in EVs. But lithium is the most popular.
