    @lgsp @iFixit @right2repair I might have to go this route because Ubreakifix put me on a waiting list for the alleged free battery replacement and I never heard back. I usually have to charge 2-3x/day depending on usage, which is very annoying. There's literally nothing else wrong with this phone and I could see myself using it for a couple more years at least but not with the battery crippled.

    Oh well, looks like I will have to wait for another month before I can actually start using my brand new @Fairphone 6 because it currently runs #Android Stock ROM with security updates of November 5th.I want to install @murena's /e/OS, which currently says it has security updates of November 1st built in, and the #Fairphone's Rollback Protection would apparently brick the phone if I tried to install an OS with an earlier security date. 😭

    Question. Is there some kind of device that works as a sort of USB rate limiter? that just throttles the amperage going to a USB device?Problem: I bought a tiny USB-powered ceiling fan, but it runs waaaaay too fast. That's to solve the bigger problem of heating efficiency, which is that in my RV, the ceiling at 6ft will be 80F while the human area is 60F and the floor is 40F.It does solve that but at what cost? The cost of noise, cool breezes, and a jittery threatening aura, that's what. We're not talking entire BTUs of air needing moved here. There are walk-in closets bigger than my house. I expected a gentle waft setting just to keep things slightly circulating. It has 3 setting: Pretty Fast, Freaking Fast, and Freaking Fuck Faster.I would settle for "Half Fast Nine." The thing advertises itself at 5W and I would like it to run like it really is 5W tyvm.I'm not about to open'er up and solder in a bunch of resistors. The only thing I was truly good at in electronics school was catching breadboards on fire. (This is a true story. Yes, I was trying to burn things. They let me graduate.)Is there some kind of USB dongle I can attach in the middle that will just say, "Nope, slower'er down a wee but, yae canae* have that much power"?* Sorry, I've been watching Limmy stream Disco Elysium and his accent is stook in me 'ed. Pretend I'm from Star Trek.#RightToRepair #AskFedi #RVLife
