For everyone not happy with news relating to Google, Android, and Huawei...
I'm just going to leave this right here...
The Seventh Circuit could have checked government overreach in conducting invasive electronic device searches at the border. They failed. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2019/05/seventh-circuit-dodges-opportunity-protect-travelers-invasive-border-searches
Gotta love what @purism are doing with Librem One. Streamlining things like Matrix and Mastodon into a suite like this is great.
Here's hoping that it catches on with the masses
Actually doing content moderation well is very, very difficult, and you should be suspicious of any claim to the contrary. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2019/04/content-moderation-broken-let-us-count-ways
#Goodmorning fellow #dreamers and #optimists! And to the fellow advocates of #TheVenusProject! I was humming #Tomorrowland music a lot during my sleep, especially the part where Frank Walker flies around the Edge of Tomorrowland.
@aral As an advocate to #TheVenusProject and #ResourceBasedEconomy, I do not like supporting capitalism and mass surveillance.
Folks, for years: We have a problem called Surveillance Capitalism, it’s a systemic problem arising from socio-economic factors…
Ex-Googler: Hmm, this problem, very exotic… what shall I call it without criticising either surveillance or capitalism? Time well spent?
Folks: SURVEILLANCE CAPITALISM! It’s the feedback loop between accumulation of information (surveillance) and accumulation of wealth (capitalism)
Ex-Googler: …human downgrading?

@purism 96% so far! I'm stoked! :)
I'm very proud of you, Purism! :)
Only when science and technology are used with human concern in a world in which all of the earth’s resources are held as the common heritage of all of the earth’s people can we truly say that there is intelligent life on earth.

No matter which social network you're on, following a diverse group of people helps you taking a peek at the other side of your personal filter bubble.
You don't have to agree with everything and everyone, but please, at least try to listen to people and their opinions.
It will help you appreciate your own life, and may just make you a little wiser.
@omgubuntu The tabbed layout could be very useful for a smartphone running GNOME. Would be nice if Purism could adopt the tabbed layout. I would like an option to choose between a tabbed layout or a two-column layout whether it be in the desktop, tablet, or smartphone.
The importance of security within IoT cannot be overlooked.
Find out about upcoming security enhancements and what makes Ubuntu Core the most secure choice for IoT in our latest webinar.
Even if I do want Purism Librem 5, I HAVE got to give credit to Google for making technologies accessible for those who are deaf or hard of hearing. If only the open source community could step up and make it easier for deaf to make and receive phone calls with a smart voice assistant.
Live Relay is similar to using a TTY device with a relay service such as Florida Relay or Sprint Relay. Voice recognition has improved dramatically over the past couple of years but still needs a long way to go.
No need for dialing 711 and no need for TTY.
Ah, #LiveRelay in #AndroidQ would be so much fun and useful!!! I'm #hearingimpaired and I could make use of Live Relay. Of course, I can speak and hear, but I do want to see text as well if I don't understand what they're saying.
