their next article should be "how to maintain support of a fairphone 101" because I think they desperately need a refresher

I haven't had a great experience with my fairphone 4. app/phone crashes, ghost touching, now they announced that they're skipping support for Android 14, technical support has also been rather unresponsive. to top it off, they are usually very late with their security patches and apparently their verified boot implementation is horrible, they use the aosp test keys (which are publicly available) to cryptographically sign their firmware, which completely negates the point of the thing. I guess that's on par with the software support in general...

so yeah, can't recommend the company as is unfortunately 😕

I've had problems with ghost touches on my fp4. customer service just doesn't respond. I also get weird app crashes. can't recommend the company like this. long term support was the whole point!!

I will be reporting this to the American Association Against Acronym Abuse!

fun fact, the machinery used to make cereal and pet food is often exactly the same.

edit: for clarification, I don't mean they share a production line but the machines can be used to make either.

what's the difference between real estate management and landlording?

the sauna picture was a weird example though...

That headline is so stupid that I refuse to read the article

my grandfather (polish) was talking to my cousin's boyfriend at the time (german) in english. the poor guy was trying to make a good impression so he was really going the extra mile. it took about 10 minutes for them to realize one was talking about chess, and the other about jazz.
