Migration of Microsoft Surface magazine to Mbin
Hello members of the Microsoft Surface magazine,
After much contemplation, I have made the decision to migrate this magazine, in addition to the other magazines I moderate, to Mbin.
kbin.social is clearly no longer under active development, and in addition to suffering from several technical problems, kbin.social is also suffering from a huge spam problem. As such, from the perspective of both a user of Kbin and a moderator of several magazines, I believe the best way to move forward is to migrate these magazines over to Mbin.
This magazine will be moving over to kbin.run at @Surface
I will continue to check in over here occasionally for the next few weeks, but otherwise from here on out this magazine is considered inactive and will not be fully moderated. Going forward, any new threads or discussions should instead be posted in the new magazine.
Of course if you don’t want to move your account to a different instance, you absolutely do not have to! That’s the beauty of federated social media and ActivityPub. All you have to do is subscribe to the new magazine at @Surface and continue on as usual!
Thanks for all the discussions and contributions y’all have made in these magazines, and I hope to see you over there!

I've enabled (Battery Limit) for 6 months, now that my Battery 1 stuck at 50%. #warning
I replaced the battery myself last year November, It had been working fine until now....
Last 6 Months, I left my Surface Book 2 on desk and I took my another Surface Pro for to-go. That was why I enabled Battery Limit in the UEFI(/BIOS) settings and limit the maximum charge to 50%.
Yesterday, I disable Battery Limit and let it charge to 100% overnight. But it stuck at 88%. Battery status shows that Battery 1(Tablet part) stuck at 50%. Battery Report Battery 1 Charging status in Linux Battery Charging status in Windows 11 I've try all that I could think of:
``` Enable & Disable Battery Limit again
Charge it while completely shutdown
Detach the tablet part and charge it with a Surface Cable alone.
Charge it with USB-C
Charge it while running Linux
```
Both of the Battery shows healthy in Battery report, not much wear have got.
I suspect it's either the EC on the motherboard or the Power Management chip on the Battery 1 is malfunction, it doesn't disable Battery Limit like Battery 2 does.
It could also be a faulty battery I got But I think you should be aware of this issue.
