It's ridiculous to apply and include political disputes in software! As this program does: w0lf's Translator v1.1

as you can see Hungarian language is included!
We know there were old political disputes between Romania and Hungary. But to omit deliberately Hungarian language only because Romania has disputes with Hungary (certain people) it's ridiculous.
But the romanian author of this program did deliberately omited the Hungarian language in his program.
Simply childish.
I'm too born in Romania too and proud to be a Romanian, but to include political disputes in my software is under my dignity.
Same rasistic policy is applied by Visicom Navigator GPS Ukraine 2008 v3.2.8. Where because Ukraine has disputes with Romania has choosen to apply same rasistic attitude in this GPS software: towns with majoritary romanian population are very poor representated (no streets, building numbers, and so on...). Small towns with majoritar ukrainian population are represented with complete street and building information.
I sent all this information to Romanian authorities: parliament, newspapers and foreign ministry.
IMHO no politics or political disputes should be present in software!
You posted in the wrong section, not a contribution to Hacking & Development "unless posted under the authors thread"
Also speculation as how do you know what you say is true and not just the development not every language is included, so it could be said for other countrys not included that it's racism?
Missing Countrys:
Albanian
Estonian
Filipino
Finish
& more as not going to point them all out.............
Have you sent the author a translation yourself and had him or her refuse to add it or is this just a conspiracy theory of your own

Hello XDA Members
Part of my high school curriculum requires me to write an extended essay based on a topic of my choice as long as it links to one of my subjects in school.
I have decided to write my essay on ITGS (Information Technology on Global Societies) which is basically an IT course turned into social studies.
My initial idea was "How does the introduction of Voice Recognition software raise an issue of inequality of access?"
It was a very broad question and could branch out to different ideas. So I created a short survey in order to collect some responses which will help me narrow down this idea into a focused research question. It will help me determine the most used software, the languages that it is used in, and it's support for languages and its dialects. From the responses I will be able to focus my research question on a specific software, language and perhaps dialect. So my research question should look something like "How does the introduction of _______ voice recognition software raise an issue of inequality of access to users speaking ____________?" Basically what I would be able to do in the end is specify a stakeholder and a system.
Please answer this survey honestly people and do not invent answers.
Here is a link to it http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SD5DGNR
Thanks!

Ukraine mobilises after Putin's 'declaration of war'
Ukrainian and Russian troops in standoff at Crimean military base - live updates

So just try to discuss without saying you want someone to win or whatever... take the question "What are the options to solve this conflict without violence ?" as an example... I think this isn't too policital
It has been started with America and Syria

I hope it will end without war. If not, Poland would be in centre of world war 3rd time from 1914. I'm definitely not happy because Poland (my country) borders with Russia, Belarus and Ukraine.

As long as there's a reason for war
It'll never end
It all caused by fear, greed, and mis-guided people
You can't simply remove those from the human nature
And history doesn't repeat it self, humanity repeat it's stupidity
Take that as a lesson for tomorrow
And yes, political topics are not allowed on XDA

the most "funny" thing is that my country has the borders with both countries , so i may get screwed up if this war continues
let's hope that the situation won't get any worst that it is now...

Al.
@PixoAl
Edit or change of IMEI is illegal in quite a few of countries. For this reason, I've closed and edited your thread! XDA doesn't allow and doesn't accept discussions about or support for such an edit or change.
