    I'm just sorry that I donated here.

  • Censorship in China does not have an impact on my life, or on the life of most people here. Let the Chinese people be the judge of what happens in China.

    On the other hand, censorship here matters a lot to us.

  • The society that spent the last 20 years in a murder spree in the Middle East does not get to lecture anyone about intolerance.

    How many countries has America invaded in your lifetime? How many murders have American thugs committed?

    Tesla’s secret team to suppress thousands of driving range complaints
    www.reuters.com Tesla’s secret team to suppress thousands of driving range complaints

    About a decade ago, Tesla rigged the dashboard readouts in its electric cars to provide “rosy” projections of how far owners can drive before needing to recharge, a source told Reuters.

    Tesla’s secret team to suppress thousands of driving range complaints

    From the article: "About a decade ago, Tesla rigged the dashboard readouts in its electric cars to provide “rosy” projections of how far owners can drive before needing to recharge, a source told Reuters. The automaker last year became so inundated with driving-range complaints that it created a special team to cancel owners’ service appointments."

    Which port to run Wireguard on

    By default most people run Wireguard on port 51822. This of course shows that you are running a VPN. Is it better to run on another port, for example 443? But I heard that some ISPs frown on that.

    What do the folks here think?

    Monitoring battery current in Android

    I'm having a lot of problems with my charging. Sometimes I connect the charging cable, the "charging" light turns on, but the device doesn't charge (or charges extremely slowly, such as 1-2% overnight). Just disconnecting the cable and reconnecting fixes the issue. I think the charge socket is getting loose.

    Are there apps where I can monitor the battery current? This would allow me to see when I have issues (also to do quality check on the various cables I have). Something onn F-Droid would be preferred.
