Sorry, aber gerade ist bei uns wirklich gar nix zu holen. Unser Server ist im Wartungsmodus – und unser kleiner Bot versucht gerade, mit letzter Energie die Fehlermeldungen zu sortieren.
Ob’s ein Daten-Leck, ein Stromausfall im Cluster oder einfach nur ein mies gelauntes Bit war – wir wissen es noch nicht. Was wir aber wissen:
Das Daten-Drama eskalierte zu einer Server-Schmelze. Aber keine Sorge: Wir sind dran.
Was jetzt?
Bei unseren Kolleg:innen von inside digital läuft bestimmt alles rund – schau doch mal vorbei!
Oder du vertreibst dir die Zeit mit einem Besuch auf unseren Social-Media-Kanälen – zum Beispiel Instagram, YouTube oder TikTok. Da gibt’s immerhin keine Serverprobleme – versprochen.
Danke für deine Geduld. Unser Bot rebootet schon mit Hochdruck. 🔧
NewsGoogle Pixel's Charging Limit Doesn't Work Sometimes, Here's Why
Believe it or not, Google only recently introduced a charging limit feature to Pixel smartphones with Android 15. This new option allows users to cap the battery charge at 80 percent, offering an alternative to the adaptive charging feature that charges the battery all the way to 100 percent. However, Google has confirmed that this charging limit won’t always restrict the battery to 80 percent.

Introduced last month, the charging limit feature aims to slow down battery degradation more effectively. The feature can be found in the Charging Optimization section alongside adaptive charging. Initially, it arrived with a straightforward description: “Your phone will only charge to 80% battery,” implying the charging process would stop at that level.
However, as discovered in the latest update (via Assemble Debug), Google modified the feature’s description. The new wording clarifies that even when the 80 percent cap is enabled, the phone may occasionally charge to 100 percent. This adjustment, according to Google, helps “recalibrate” the battery.
Why you need to charge your device to 100 percent
Fully charging the battery occasionally is a common practice among Android OEMs and Apple’s iPhones. This process ensures accurate battery status readings, including charging and discharging rates. It also helps prevent issues where the battery level might be inaccurately displayed as full or empty.
The updated charging optimization feature is rolling out via Google’s Settings Services app through a server-side update.
In addition to occasionally fully charging your phone, experts recommend fully depleting the battery at least once every quarter. This recalibration helps maintain accurate battery life estimates and overall battery health.
Interestingly, Samsung’s Galaxy devices offer more advanced charging options to prevent overcharging. It’s surprising that Google hasn’t yet replicated these features in Pixel phones, though future enhancements could be on the horizon.
