I thought Destiny 2 had bombed, given that they gave away copies of it (in December?) if you had a Battle.net account

What are the chances that phone calls are unreliable in this mobile?
Germans don't have to learn about Turks. Turks have to learn about Germans and blend in. If they can't, that's a very serious failure.
If all those families moved to Germany because there was no future in Turkey, it's highly unlikely that learning Turkish will do any good for them. I think the objective of a public education has to be to improve the lives of people, if they want to learn Turkish or Klingon they should pay for it themselves.

Also I can imagine that adding a new language choice is very expensive.

Be warned that Google does NOT push updates to these Android One phones, the OEM does, so they take their time and (potentially can) include as many crap apps as they want.

Xiaomi puts a lot of crapware in their Android One mobiles. They have their own line of apps, "Mi", and they include many of them pre-installed by default.

Teaching German kids Turkish feels like it has a political motive more than anything else. I can see Kenyans gaining opportunities of improving their lives by learning Chinese. What do Germans have to earn from learning Turkish? Are you sure the backlash was racism and not just a lot of "what a terrible waste of time and public money"?
By mentioning sexism, when the parent comment doesn't, you're already assuming only women can be cheats. Please don't be a sexist, it's against the HN guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
So the GDPR is only about personal data? What are my responsibilities if I run a chan, i.e., I store no personal data about my posts other than the IP address where they originated? What if I use some tracking technology such as a cookie or localStorage to identify unique browsers regardless of their IP address?
