Looking to learn Rust? Curious about Rust? Feel free to ask me
  • I've been wanting to write rust for quite some time, but I can't get over crates. The system just seems insecure to me. What happens in 10 years when the servers go down? Is there any sort of mitigation for supply chain attacks? As I understand it anyone can submit code; what's stopping someone from putting malicious code into a crate I've been using?

    I suppose these are risks for any third party package system though.

    I've used Flutter infrequently and have experienced things like this with their package system.

  • This depends entirely on the phone/OS. The OS may report only that the battery is charging, and not at what rate. Apps like Ampere rely on the OS to report these things, and if it doesn't you'll get garbage numbers. Like the other comment says, get a meter to put between the charger and phone to see what rate it's currently charging at.

    That being said, the charge controller in the phone will likely never draw the max rated charger power, and it will vary with many factors such as CPU load, current battery capacity, temperature, etc.

    Best VPS for gramps
  • So, I've done exactly this with gramps. I used a NUC running proxmox at my home.

    I created a very simple https server with turnkey nginx running on the NUC proxmox instance. I host the gramps database exports there via a simple HTML page.

    Tied it to a domain name and sent the link to my family, with instructions to install gramps and import the database.

    EDIT: I used Let's Encrypt for the SSL keys

    It's OK if you cry
  • Set your wpa_supplicant to use the BSSID of the repeater's access point and don't put the SSID in the conf file. Then it will connect to only the repeater.

    If the repeater just re-transmits tho main AP's BSSID and packets, you need a better setup. Cheap WiFi extenders do this and almost always cause collisions, making the overall speed slow at all points.

    The best setup is to have multiple wired APs.
