  • I assume it goes both ways - i.e. there are other countries who laugh at some American names due to how they sound in their local language. It’s just human nature - whether it’s just for the humor, or to ridicule & act condescending will depend upon the individuals involved.



    • Droid-ify - much nicer F-Droid replacement front end that also works with Shizuku to automate installing updates in batches. Also supports many other repositories like izzy-On-Droid (which some of my items below may come from instead).

    • Shizuku - gives elevated powers to apps written to take advantage of it. Not quite root, but definitely helps give abilities that make life easier.

    • Kompact Image Compressor - I work with scanned documents a fair amount, and this new app has already saved me significant storage space.

    • Key Mapper - I mainly use this for emulation, but there are plenty of other uses.

    • URL Check - powerful sanitizer with the smallest footprint of those I’ve tried.

    • DropCount - my latest game addiction

    • Keyboard Switcher - sometimes I just gotta use a different input method, and this provides a consistent easy way to switch

    • Hail - group apps to freeze all in one shot with Shizuku

    • Insular - de-Googled Island app which makes working with the work profile feature easier

    • FFUpdater - keeps my collection of browsers & Thunderbird up to date automatically with Shizuku

    He wasn’t - he was deliberately saying something attention-grabbing so people would realize how unhealthy the typical restaurant fries are made. He knows a serving of six fries is unrealistic.

    Of course, people are too closed-minded and insecure to be that honest with themselves about the facts they don’t want to hear — preferring instead to attack and ridicule others so they can overcompensate for their well-buried guilt over wanting to eat something they deep down know is very bad for them.
