They did if you were on o2, that's why I'm still with Aldi Talk (they use the o2 network); they've had LTE through the entire network for a while now. The new thing is 5G for everyone.

Looks awesome! Still bummed that Duolingo Maori will never come; NZ government should totally be funding that. Having to do the pure textbook way takes a lot of the fun out of it!

Great idea! I guess though you'd need a new header for a website to declare what languages a page is available in, so the menu options in the browser would only show languages that are actually available? Or a new meta tag? Or maybe th

Can only agree; had to sadly leave Thunderbird due to duplicated events, reminders for events already dismissed, weird errors and these Windows 95-style dialogs.

Sorry, meant native as in made by the elementaryOS team (it's an Ubuntu-based distro).

Same journey here; except using the Calibre Web integration, an absolutely gamechanger. No need to plug-in to sync my own books, they're pulled straight from my Pi. And I love how all that was required was editing a line in the config

IIRC most "native" apps in elementaryOS are written in Vala.

Am lost. I started a business here in Germany as a Kleinunternehmer, cost me 30 EUR. GmbH is not the only form available.

So a lot will have in their contract with their processor that they actually can accept Visa/Mastercard, so the sign is there to put you off. But actually a lot don't, and when you try to pay, even contactless, with a non-Girocard

Before the war when I studied Russian, I had the unpleasant experience of having to get a Russian visa, which is usually subcontracted to "VFS Global", a private company. Didn't do anything to improve the experience at all.

Weird to think that Amazon's kindle format used to be based on .mobi, itself based on the Palm's database file type.

Reminds me of BlackBerry and Opera, which used to do similar things (server-side rendering) on mobile to use less data.

Given that they're moving to Libreoffice, I imagine the collabora integration with Nextcloud (which is, IIRC, a VNC like interface to Libreoffice), would be a better bet.

Excellent news, hopefuly a rollout to the rest of us at some point! Directory server could be Samba4, but I guess if they aim for Linux on the desktop, FreeIPA would probably be the better bet. Though the choice of email software is interes

Even after Googling I can't find the answer: what would you show then at the boarder? On their website, the "share code" seems to only be for non-governmental use. Is your passport number then linked to the visa? What happens
