Session on Windows wants to spell-check using American English, no matter what I do. This seems to be because it wrongly assumes my locale to be `en-US`, when it is actually `en-GB`. ``` "spellcheck: setting languages to: [\"en-US\"]","time":"2022-10-10T19:19:09.216Z" ``` With this patch, Windows will use `$LANGUAGE`, if set, to determine the language to be used for spell-checking. Linux is unaffected by this patch and will correctly infer the spell-checking language from `$LANG`. Create a .bat file and start Session from this: ``` @echo off set LANGUAGE=en-GB "C:\Users\ian\AppData\Local\Programs\Session\Session.exe" --lang=en-GB ``` Note that the use of `--lang=<language>` above sets only the Session UI language, not the spell-checker language. This is a partial fix for #2013, specifically [this comment](https://github.com/oxen-io/session-desktop/issues/2013#issuecomment-998679090): |

Session Desktop
Summary
Session integrates directly with Oxen Service Nodes, which are a set of distributed, decentralized and Sybil resistant nodes. Service Nodes act as servers which store messages offline, and a set of nodes which allow for onion routing functionality obfuscating users IP Addresses. For a full understanding of how Session works, read the Session Whitepaper.

Verifying signatures
Get Kee's key and import it:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oxen-io/oxen-core/master/utils/gpg_keys/KeeJef.asc
gpg --import KeeJef.asc
Get the signed hash for this release, the SESSION_VERSION needs to be updated for the release you want to verify
export SESSION_VERSION=1.6.1
wget https://github.com/oxen-io/session-desktop/releases/download/v$SESSION_VERSION/signatures.asc
Verify the signature of the hashes of the files
gpg --verify signatures.asc 2>&1 |grep "Good signature from"
The command above should print "Good signature from "Kee Jefferys..."
If it does, the hashes are valid but we still have to make the sure the signed hashes matches the downloaded files.
Make sure the two commands below returns the same hash. If they do, files are valid
sha256sum session-desktop-linux-amd64-$SESSION_VERSION.deb
grep .deb signatures.asc
