  • There’s weird things though because they intentionally strip the Canadian language and region options out of AOSP and that causes some odd behaviour. Whenever I switch from my home towers to the ones around Nanaimo I get this odd message saying “Region changed to US, rebooting.” And then the phone reboots.

    A couple of times its gone into a complete bootloop and required reflashing because of this.

    Also you have to use Australian English as the closest Canadian English.

    At least, that’s the e/OS experience on Fairphone 6. Still waiting for a release for postmarket







  • I love my field, I hate the majority of jobs in my field because while tech can do many cool and wonderful things and could be solving many more issue, most companies are busy doing what one percenters want and pushing for the least effort solutions and everything is always a cram. No breathing space, no time to enjoy the product and reflect on what to do next. Just cram, enshittify, add tracking, automate away your peers, do more with less people so we can fire more people.

    I’m so sick of the efficiency rat race that capitalist investors demand.
