  • I’m using both iPhones and Android phones (vanilla and rooted), the only valid point you make is about using themes. I belong to to the 99,9% of users who don’t bother.

    You forgot some important feature that Android phones have: They don’t pester you too much about privacy: they allow per default to use the GPS, message you, etc. Also they come with a lot of unneeded apps preinstalled, some of these being impossible to deinstall












  • Sorry, you’re completely utterly wrong here. First, the Reichs:

    1. Reich: Holy Roman Empire (of the German Nation).
    2. Reich: (Unified) German Empire (1871-1918). → that’s the one they were referring to by wording, but not by implication.
    3. Reich: Nazi Germany (1933-1945). → context and implication should make it clear they mean this one.

    The Weimar Republic took place between the second and the third Reich. It would’ve been a golden age of great prosperity if it weren’t for the Versailles contract and the Great Depression. It’s still had great economic achievements, which often get falsely attributed to Nazi Germany. You can be 100% sure that the Trump campaign doesn’t refer to this one. And please don’t conflate it with the 2nd Reich.

    Even though the wording seems to indicate the 1871 German Reich the wording unified Reich and the use of the term Reich in English make this a Nazi Bullhorn.

    Edit to add: In their ignorance the Trump campaign delivered a nice own goal: if they love the 2nd Reich of 1871 so much they should adopt a couple of their policies. Universal healthcare for example - introduced in 1883 by a conservative chancellor by the name of Bismarck.
