Ok, I'm out of here. This is my last post on lemmy.world. I created a new account in a server that (hopefully) does not use defederation for political reasons.

I'm just sorry that I donated here.

The same applies in reverse. China's problems do not excuse the fact that America is a murderous nation that has invaded/bombed multiple countries in recent times.

I don't live in China. But I live in a country where there are millions of refugees fleeing America's wars.

I was hoping someone would be kind enough to tell me.

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.

That was my point.

I'm not a fan of the Lemmygrad crowd, even if I don't want them defederated.

I guess I'm back at join-lemmy.org to find a new instance. Any recommendations?

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

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."

Optimizing wireguard setup (self.privacyguides)
 

I installed a wireguard server on the cloud and it seems to be working ok. That being said, there is still a bandwidth and ping gap between vpn and no-vpn uses. Can you recommend any guides on figuring out where the bottlenecks might be? For example, my client router had a crappy CPU and was causing 50% degradation on the bandwidth. Maybe there are more problems like that.

Which port to run Wireguard on (self.privacyguides)
 

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 (self.android)
submitted 2 years ago by ghariksforge to c/android
10 comments fedilink
 

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.

Tangram for Android (self.android)
submitted 2 years ago by ghariksforge to c/android
11 comments fedilink
 

I've been happily using Tangram in my Linux laptop: https://github.com/sonnyp/Tangram

Tangram is basically a "browser" that turns web pages into apps. It works very well with websites where I want to stay logged in for long periods of time (like lemmy or mastodon).

Does anyone know and can recommend a similar capability in Android? I would prefer something in FDroid when possible.
