Those chargers are really dangerous. It is technically possible to recharge a disposable alkaline battery a few times, but you’re never going to get more than a half charge, and it will fuck up the internal chemistry turning each battery into a tiny potential pipe bomb.
My dad used to recharge alkaline batteries with a special charger, but that was quite useless

I had a babysitter that used to do that. Even 7-year-old me thought that was a bad idea but she insisted that it was fine.
I wonder what happened to her. I hope she didn’t accidentally harm a kid in an unintentional D-cell-powered terrorist attack.
At least that charger had a safety feature that would not charge a battery if it was too worn
