  • The math might be correct it just doesn’t reflect what it says. Its 20min saved compared to going all of the roads at the speed limit all the time.

    So every time you slow down (because of trafic, a red light, a crossroads or for any other reason) the app will calculate you as going slower and “loosing” time. Of course you couldn’t actually have gone the speed limit in those situations but the app can’t know that. It actually can’t calculate the time you saved.

    But I can’t find the app on fdrois so I can’t check.





  • Yes! I’d love ethical personalized adds. Show me exactly what I am looking for, when i want to look for it and nothing else ever. In get to see way fewer ads and the advertisers have to pay less because they have to show fewer ads.

    But as long as collecting and holding my data is done by capitalism it can never be a positive thing and has to be avoided at all times.






  • Some things should be 100% outside of the control of developers. Zooming in/out and selecting/copying/pasting text are my main issues. You have no right to decide I am not allowed to copy the text from your site. Fuck you. It doesn’t protect shit. You sent the text in a HTML file to my computer and then dare to tell me i am not allowed to copy it? I can read it on my screen. I can type it myself. I can use OCR to have a program read it for me. I can open the source code and copy it there. All it does is make your site awfull to use!


  • I thin it should be like this: the system defines something like 10-15 main colors (text, text background, foreground, main accent, highlight bright, highlight dark …). All programs are designed in terms of those colors. Designers don’t put “green here, black there” but “main color here, highlight there”.

    But they also have the option to recommend the user a app specific color set that can either be applied to that app only or system wide.

    By default every app uses their own recommended theme unless the user has set the option to override app themes with the system theme.





  • Lots of Germans defending German cuisine, so as another German: you are absolutely right!

    Germany has some great food and some Germans love making good food but German culture is absolutely not about food. The food culture we have is a development of the last ~40 years. Traditional German food is supposed to make you sated so you can go back to the fields and work! And the go to the army and fight! And then go to the ruins and rebuild!

    Tasty and awesome food? Yes! A culture that tells you it loves food? No!
