Since Fairphone is Dutch it kinda makes sense they’d make this mistake. I suppose if you’d e-mail them about it they’d be open to making the change. They’re probably not even aware of it.

It gets more difficult if even the script is different. I once installed some Chinese app that would put the language picker in Mandarin and their symbols. I really didn’t know how to change it to anything I could understand so I’d go by all of them one by one until I found a language I understood.

Not sure what you mean by this. Are you just trying to gage some reason because it’s a German company? They made heating pads, heated blankets, stuff like that.

Oh man, there’s this German company Beurer that makes simple equipment for medical home application. They make this sort of zapper thing, which is battery oper and it just heats the shit out of a little ceramic plate. Put that on a bug bite, it heats away the irritation. No more itch, no more venom in your body, just gone.

I am no longer careful around biting bugs. Keep in mind it’s not supposed to work for stingers.

I figured for 15 euros it’d be too bad if it doesn’t work but I now can’t imagine not having it.

I’ve since also bought a TENS/EMS machine of theirs and a laser hair removal tool is underway for my wife.

I completely trust this company based on just two products.

Portugal is a lovely country and I’ve decided to go visiting it a lot in my life. I feel more comfortable abroad if I at least kind of speak the language. English and German are no issue for me, French goes in a pinch so I’m pretty comfortable in western Europe but I’d like to be more comfortable with the Mediterranean languages. In due time I might try learning Italian as well.

I’ve been learning Portuguese for well over two years now. I think I’ve got a pretty good handle on sentence building. The grammar of verb tense is sometimes still somewhat confusing and I think I’ve got a lot of words to learn still.

But if I read posts on Lemmy in Brazilian Portuguese, I kinda get the gist of it.

Vulnerable, Insecure, Broken Entry

It’s just prompt engineering for coding. Let an AI dump a bunch of code for you, debug until it no longer errors, pull request and repeat next sprint.

5% of the time, it works every time

In that case I can really recommend Out of Time

Ballistic: Ecks VS Sever. Decent movie.

Also Out of Time and Déjà Vu, both with Denzel Washington, both sort of time based thrillers.

I just get a notification stating I don’t allow them to track me so they have no garbage to stuff down my throat

Most notable I think is there’s this dude who asks for any old pc parts you might have lying around, he’ll cover shipping but the stuff needs to be donated, and he makes gaming or office systems for countries in need.

I donated a case and a PSU to a cause and it got shipped off to Ukraine to replace broken stuff.

Overly full lips. There’s a bandwidth there where it should fit the rest of the facial features. Filling them up with collagen just almost never looks good.

Maybe I’m biased but my two cents is no. Not at all.

I think people who impose their kids on others are the assholes.

The thing with new parents is that they are, in my experience, completely devoid of any personality they used to have. They may have been fun people at some point, but once they get pregnant, it’s pretty much all they can talk about.

I’ve got some close friends who are on the cusp of becoming parents but my wife and I have made it quite clear we are not at all interested in that part of their lives. And they accept that.

Especially seeing as how you’ve not spoken to this person for some time, ‘catching up’ is out of the question if children are involved. Unless they’re passed out or whatever. It seems to me this person is just looking for an excuse to talk about their children for a couple of hours while you politely nod and agree. For them, the best case scenario is that you’re as happy to be around those kids as they are.

I think you can set boundaries if you are not looking forward to meeting with the kids around.

For me personally, it’s a couple of self-hosted apps. It’s not technically programming, more scripting.

But I’ve also dabbled in using Python for some personal data analysis. That works just fine on Windows since I use Power BI for the visualization.

I’ve had some folks at my school creating their own forks of open source software. Modding games, modding tools, modding the OS for whatever.

The other one instantly visible here: nondescript error messages that make it impossible to fix. ‘Something went wrong’.

Containerized software. The main advantage of this is that every application, or stack of applications, runs in its own ecosystem. You can restart a container whenever without having to reboot your entire system. You can store all data off a container in a volume, so if you hit a snag, you can recreate the container without actually losing any of your configs.

You can also create networks so that apps run in different subnets than other apps.

Very simply put, a docker container is like a mini system that runs on your main system.

Something else I like about docker is docker compose. You can create a container or stack of containers with a single simple YAML file without actually having to install anything yourself. I manage my containers in Portainer.

Most things computer based, provided you have a feel for it. If you are interested in Business Intelligence, you can learn to work with Microsoft Fabric and there are plenty of companies in the data field that are hiring, offering traineeships etc. Same goes for the more technical data engineering, software development, etc.
