I mean, the humans think it's cool to take perfectly good pants, tear holes in them until there are hardly any pants, and wear them like that. Maybe pants are even cooler?

Oh shit, I mixed up milli and micro. Will edit.

~~0.8 watts? Honestly, I think it gets closer than I was expecting.~~ (edit: millli/micro, messed it up. This is a tiny amount of power. Needs to get near that 1W they are aiming for to be useful). Searching around, I see estimates of 5-20 watts when fast charging, and 1-2W in standby mode. The article says they are aiming for 1W in the next couple of years, which can probably do it. However, it's not clear what peak output it. You would probably use half the space for a normal battery and half for this power source, so that the phone can charge itself but also have a higher output when it's needed.

It probably doesn't even need to provide all the power. Imagine if your phone would trickle charge wherever you were. If you're watching netflix you might run out of battery and have to charge. If you aren't using it much, even if the output of these things can't keep up, the battery could last days or a week on a charge before eventually running out.

I mean, there was all that drama where the board formed to prevent this from happening kicked out the CEO trying to do this stuff, then the board got booted out and replaced with a new board and brought back that CEO guy. So this was pretty much going to happen.

Haha oh boy, I had no idea, and it took almost a day before anyone mentioned it. Now I know.

What about instance drama?

I thought this was intentional? They have control panel stuff somewhat similar to the old style, but build a settings app for the less technical people so they can find common stuff without getting overwhelmed?

Wait, wasn't there a post the other day with Lemmy stats showing more discussion than ever?

If the error is with the UI, then trying a mobile app is a good place to start (since they should connect to the API directly).
