This is why I'm skeptical of claims like, "Someday in the future we'll have a device in our brains so we can Google using our thoughts." I don't *want* software in my brain. Software in my brain means:
- they ship a patch that breaks my brain
- somebody hacks my brain
- they change the UI for my brain unexpectedly
- the server goes down so my brain stops working
Software for anything mission-critical scares the bejeezus out of me. (And that includes software in planes etc.)
Was going to post this here, but it ran over the word limit:

Pre-installed apps can have privileged custom permissions that let them operate outside the Android security model

Wondering what the future of the internet will look like? Here it is, from one of the people helping to build it...

Looks like the known and loved video content creators are finally discovering LBRY!
@stefanmolyneux is now on LBRY too!
For those unfamiliar with LBRY, it's a 100% decentralized, censorship resistant, video sharing platform. You can't get censored, shadow-banned, deleted, or demonetized!
Here's more:

I know I push people towards this service, so I probably look like I'm associated with them somehow. I am NOT. I'm pushing for decentralization of everything and have been following LBRY's development for a couple of years, waiting for them to cross that line of capabilities where I consider them a viable platform. They've recently added the last piece and now they're the HOLY GRAIL of video sharing (technology wise). It's up to US to add the final piece... MORE CONTENT and MORE VIEWERS!

Hey makers!
We know many people use the #inkscape #gcode extension (gcodetools), which we have improved and updated to python3.
We need testers to check everything is still right!
Please go to https://chat.inkscape.org/channel/inkscape_extensions, so we can help you get started with testing.
Let's work together to make 1.0 a good release for makers ;)
(please boost to reach other makers, thanks!)

I just want to know if there's anyone on mastodon that does speak bengali.
Don't know what you got, until it's gone

People are less fooled than they once were by "left-wing truth moderators". These self-appointed sentinels of what one should believe have been shown repeatedly and consistently to be strongly biased. It's best to disregard them out-of-hand.

PSA-
I'm noticing a lot of gabbers using "RT" for retweets.
We do not Tweet, we Gab.
Repost, Regab... never Retweet!
We've been conditioned to say Tweet and Google... It will take time to deprogram.
Happy #FreedomFriday #GabFam #SpeakFreely 🍻
The #Tusky people seems to be unhappy about #TuskyUncensored to be a GPL-compliant software so they can not report it for GPL violation.

And they are reporting #Mastodon client that works with #newgab for Google Play policy violation.
I am just a Chinese guy living in Japan, I have not been to the fucking America yet. Being born in China, I know the importance of absolute free speech is so much more important than difference between left and right.
All Japanese Mastodon clients are not blocking #Gab, including Subway Tooter by Mr.Tateisu, a very well made client with support for push notification with FCM, which #Tusky refuse to implement.

Also https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.avalanche.avalanche made by Mixi K.K. in Japan.
You guys should really try to take down those #WhiteSupremacist #Nazi apps made by Japanese right?
Thank those people in the #Tusky Team (mostly white) trying to force us, the coloured developers in Asia to comply with their view of #AmericanPolitics. Such an excellent way to combat #AmericanExceptionalism and #WhiteSupremacism .
Happy to meet you wherever you are on your journey (software or spiritual)
