Very Offtopic: :p

I never understood why the US uses such an odd way to write down dates.

They use month-day-year. 12th of april is "4/12/09". (Which would be the 4th of december in the rest of the world)

It's so unlogical, it's the same as counting to 3 like this: "2-1-3".

On the other hand, when it's 30 minutes and 20 seconds past noon, it isn't 30:12:20, which it should be according to the date logic.

Thankfully they write their time in a normal way, eg. 12:30:20

Those funny Americans :p

/offtopic

Aaaanyway, I love those new localised pictures, by the way, they are beautiful, if they're from a fake leak or not, the pics are nice :)

I'll be keeping an eye out for the English version, I'm interested if that has a proper digisign.

They write it how they would say it. Today for example Americans would say April 13th where as the rest of the English speaking world (proper English at that) say 13th of April. I totally agree with you. It totally defies all logic.

What's the excitement about!! Come on, it's just a few builds away from 7077 (technically speaking), I doubt there's any changes right? If there are, I bet it's no big deal. People need to stop making a mountain out of a molehill and being plain vain. Why waste your time and energy to download 2-3GB again and with the language pack just for a couple bug fixes? Oh well... vanity vanity :wacko:

That being said... SoLoR.. pls make sure you announce your torrent so I can start downloading :p

Agreed on all three points. Though a bit of clarification, "Hieroglyphs are ideograms (!= alphabet) used by ancient Egyptians". This is 100% true. Though they spoke Arabic primarily and earlier, Aramaic. Which was my point. I just didn't structure my response properly, I suppose.

Nope, they spoke Coptic earlier, and it is still used in Church services to this day (Coptic Christians form about 15% of the population of Egypt): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coptic_language

Please do not spread undocumented misinformation. Thanks.

...Please do not spread undocumented misinformation. Thanks.

Responded via PM as there is no need to carry on a discussion on languages in ancient Egypt on this thread.

It's bad enough the other thread became a Jesus debate.

ON TOPIC:

With RC pretty damn close, I've decided to wait it out. 7077 is running quick and smooth for me. Waiting for

the official public RC seems the best thing to do.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android

      By zikalify · Posted

      Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels Users should be able to fully uninstall AI-based features from Android devices and be able to access interoperability functions, free from Google’s verification requirements, the European Commission has heard as part of an Android interoperability consultation under the Digital Markets Act. These measures were proposed by the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) last week when it submitted its documentation. The FSFE noted that Google had started silently installing AI models without telling users. It noted that the EU’s DMA requires companies like Google to allow users to uninstall pre-loaded software from their devices, but in the case of the AI models Google is installing, they reinstall if you delete them, contravening the DMA. To get Google back under control, the FSFE has told the European Commission that there needs to be improvements within the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). First, it said that users should be able to fully remove pre-loaded AI components from their devices, with companies being prohibited from silently reinstalling or reactivating them. Second, access to Android interoperability features should not be contingent on registration, authorization, or contractual relationships with Google. This pertains to Google’s attempt to force developers to register with Google, even to publish apps to alternative app stores like F-Droid. Discussing its submission, Lucas Lasota, FSFE Legal Programme Manager, said: Google is planning to roll out its Android Developer Certification in September 2026. This will force every Android app developer to register with Google before their software can be installed on certified Android devices, but it should affect those who have removed Google Apps from their device. The program is controversial because it entails the signing of contracts and payment of account fees to Google, as well as the handing over of the identities of developers. It said: The FSFE said that if the Commission’s draft measures remain unchanged, then Google will be allowed to make developers verify their identity. The FSFE believes that asking developers to register is contrary to the text and spirit of the law. In summary, the FSFE has told the Commission that no developer should need a Google account, a Play Store presence, or any agreement with Google to access Android’s interoperability features.
