No, I am not. I'm based in the US. I was wondering if it could be VPN related, but I haven't connected to a node anywhere outside of the US in months. My phones language is set to English (US) with no other languages selected, and I have explicitly set F-Droid's language to English (US) in my phone's configuration as well.
I just now opened F-Droid after a reboot and without being connected to a VPN and began scrolling through latest and quickly found a random assortment of apps displaying the same way. None of them are installed though.
As you can see in the screenshot there are a couple of parts of the F-Droid application page in F-Droid that are in a different language. This isn't actually the first time I have seen this and is not limited to the F-Droid application. Currently it's just this one, but in the past I have had more apps than not displaying some or all of their content in a different language despite my phone being configured for English.
I knew exactly what book the image was from as soon as I saw it, but could not for the life of me remember the name. Thanks.
For whatever it's worth I have been using a Fairphone 5 in the US for over a year on T-Mobile.
I live in the US. I blame 40% of the people at a minimum, and likely more than that.
Indeed. I usually use 7-zip's built in tool to do it when I need to.
Well, do you want to be right or do you want things to change for the better?
I don't think anyone should have to engage with these people if they don't want to, but something like 40%+ of the population are more or less OK with the way things are going. Humiliating someone, even if they had it coming and it's entirely justified, tends to make them very defensive and double down on their position.
Is it fair? No. I hate it. They do not deserve grace in a lot of cases in my opinion, but when dealing with people and human nature I often find I have to decide between being right or being constructive. I am no saint. If the stakes only really involve myself, I'm probably more inclined to be a self-righteous sanctimonious jack wagon more often than not, but at these scales I think we need to be realistic. Acknowledge that it's not fair we have to do this work, and then do it anyway.
I don't know if this contributes to the conversation as it's almost the polar opposite, but I don't really feel attached to my body or gender at all. I am myself, that is all. I only care about my body in so much as it is the vehicle through which I am able to do the things I enjoy. If I could snap my fingers and swap my gender I would, but that is only because within where I exist many of the things I'd like to do or have would be easier as the opposite gender.
How I look, the space I inhabit, what others may think, doesn't really change anything for me. I am me.
Yeah, I have a FP5 since it's the closest thing I could get that aligned with my principles and desires, but I will fight any of these mother fuckers saying a headphone jack isn't needed, or increases costs, or any of the other reasons they give.
To be quite honest, Fairphone seems to be sitting in a really weird place with how they market themselves and the decisions they make. They go on about being sustainable and user friendly and in some ways that is true, but in others it's not. I sent support an email months ago asking for drawings for the battery cover to make developing a mod I want to make easier and they just got back to me last week saying "we have no intention of sharing that with anybody, but have a look at some of the hobbyist websites, they have tons of CAD models you can reference". Like what?
Or how they don't make the phones upgradable as well as updatable. Why not use the same chassis on the new phone and try and make as many of the new components like the screen backward compatible? I know it's not as easy on phones as it is on laptops, but that's the point. Figure it out, and you make a name for yourself.
Yes, I also own a Framework 13 laptop. I was in on the very first batch ever, and I have recently upgraded the motherboard, battery, and SSD all still in the original beat to hell chassis.
Why doesn't she have to ask me out? That doesn't seem very equitable.
That's nice and all, how about you use your money and connections to start lobbying and building infrastructure to fight this as well? If there were a class of people best equipped to fight this, they are it, not that I expect them to actually do it.
You are allowed to record content like a broadcast though, which makes me wonder if that means that ripping is illegal, but piping it through a capture card isn't?
I have, and that didn't seem to work. The Gitlab issue that the other user posted seems to be highly relevant because all of the users reporting an issue have the same phone that I do.
