I looked into it some more: the problem was that my power supply was
borderline and the laptop would occasionally kick it out and take it
back, causing plug/unplug events.
The poewr supply is the smallest one that works well enough and that I
can carry in my travel kit. The beefier power supplies are ridiculously
big.
That said, being able to turn off the notifications in that case, can be
helpful.
