Do you remove the battery pack in your laptop at home ?

TS, it's planned obsolescence in commerce
If your laptop is on a/c power all the time, your laptop battery will remain charge 100% all the time. Okay for a new battery, but you are just shortening its life. Same situation if you let it run down, its life if shorten if it reaches 0% or the min the laptop software allows it to go before switching off.
If you buy any new devices with li-ion batteries you will find that nearly all are charged to half-power. Manufacturers discovered that half-charged batteries keep their pristine state longer than 100% charge or fully depleted batteries.
So this is what I would do, charge the batteries to full. Use laptop without direct a/c power until batteries drop to half. Remove and store the batteries. Use battery without batteries and powered direct from mains.

doing at the same time as removing the battery pack from the notebook computer?

As Screwball said, don't have to remove all the time, only now and then. It is particularly pertinent when you are charging with the panty in between; you should forgo this formality.
Seriously, as far as battery memory is concerned, you don't need to with modern batteries. As to batteries can be recharged only a limited number of times, I am of the opinion that it is not so much the number of times you do the charging but the amount of charging you need to do that is the crux of the matter. And this is dependent on the duration of the sole usage of the battery. You do not need to worry about the mains overfrying the battery when it is fully charged, as there is a circuitry within the PC that cuts off the power.
In fact in large commercial installations with UPSs, the batteries are permanently connected and immediately recharged as they drain and when the mains power returns to the rectifiers.
It appears that there isn't a general consensus on the correct practice. I did a check my manual, and it says this:
"The battery starts charging when the charge drops below 95%. This prevents the battery from charging frequently. Minimizing the recharge cycles helps prolong battery life."
"Warning! Do not leave the battery pack discharged. The battery pack will discharge over time. If not using the battery pack, it must continue to be charged every three months to extend recovery capacity or else it may fail to charge in the future."
This has more or less answered my question. It's perfectly alright to keep the battery pack on when connected to AC adapter.

charge to max, run on its batteries till flat, turn off machine, recharge battery.
you wouldn't want to glue your eyes on the screen for protracted period of time! give it some rest, go out and play!
And I'm sure you know you're also increasing the recharge cycles of your battery.
laptops are used for folks on the go, if you were sitting for hours on end using AC, why not use a desktop PC or iMac?
Before perhaps, not quite so these days. Disparity between lappy and desktop blurred now. Many (including me) use lappy 100% even in office with docking station. Hooked to office's server.
That is a different question altogether.
Bro, how do you know it's fine? Have you used it on battery alone? Does it still give you 4 hrs or 6?
Dont think this is a good idea. Your dick may suffer abrasive lesions caused by rubbing with the panties' edge during violent movements! Why not take it all off?

Tell you a secret. I prefer to bang a girl when shes wearing her undies. Normally I just make her sit on my lap, lift up her skirt, push the undie to one side and enter her
I am using a U450p. Bat sux, only can last most 2 hrs altho indicator says 4 hrs.
Good idea! Time to replace mine then.

If you are using lithium polymer batteries you may find Apple's recommendations useful. They can be found here:

I notice almost all super/hypermart like carrefour, NTUC would do that to their laptops on the display.
One thing I notice doing so can cut down a lot of temperature when you are using the laptop..
