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."

The page at the top looks perfectly fine. It's useful, it gets the job done and it's lightweight.

Which port to run Wireguard on (lemmy.world)

submitted 2 years ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

8 comments fedilink

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 (lemmy.world)

submitted 2 years ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

9 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 (lemmy.world)

submitted 2 years ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

2 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.
