Is battery calibration necessary on a fresh distro install?

Using a new laptop with a confirmed healthy battery, do you typically need to do battery calibration after a fresh distro install? Or is that only used when replacing a battery on an existing system?

By battery calibration I mean the multiple cycles of letting battery drain to 0% and then recharging back up to 100%.

Thanks in advance!

Can Windows 11 access an encrypted Linux portion on a separate SSD?

Hello,

Suppose you have a PC with 2 separate SSDs. One is an install of Windows 11. The other is an install of a Linux distro, encrypted at time of installation (for example, with LUKS). Obviously you would only boot into one or the other at a time.

So a dual-boot, but each boot portion is on its own SSD (not sure if this matters, but its a relevant scenario).

Can the Windows 11 portion somehow get through the Linux encryption and access / read data on the Linux portion?

Sorry if this is a stupid or obvious question.
