again, if the person who is making the post doesn’t change the setting, it won’t get filtered. if they type a message in German but the post’s language option is set to English (which I think is the default on some major instances), it won’t get filtered out.
you can usually check what their post’s setting is by starting writing a reply to them, as the language option of your post will switch to the one they post in.
Mastodon relies on users setting the language their post is in manually, so if someone posts in two languages and forgets to switch between them, they don’t get filtered out. I know there are some other pieces of software that switch it automatically, I’m fairly sure Calckey automatically recognized the language you were writing in.

so I assume it’s worth trying it out on Navi 14?
it’s on by default in beta, off in stable.
you gotta contact EA about it, and something’s telling me they’re just going to quote some part of their ToC telling us to get fucked.

he mentioned in the past that the videos will be automatically deleted after some period of time, so that should make the storage situation a little bit more manageable.
At what price point would this device be useful?
given that it’s horribly bad at what it claims to do and was a fire risk? not even a zero point.
usually the built-in phone app will have an option to block calls from unidentified callers, no app needed.
I remember reading about Samsung TVs looking for unprotected WiFi networks, so even if you don’t give it your network details, it’ll connect to your neighbour’s if it’s not password-protected.
it’s the opposite, actually: she got harassed because she didn’t talk about it when talking about creating a bootable drive.
