You have two choices in tablets with cellular: 1. Apple’s Iron Walled Garden tablet that costs billions, or 2. a bewildering array of Google’s Android Spyware Special tablet brands. U R free to choose just bend over first.

I’m organizing my tech news into a folder on QuiteRSS feed reader. So far: Bleeping Computer News, The Register, The Verge, TechDirt. Those feeds seem like a good starter pack.

Lizard people armed with French baguettes are coming to take away our pickup trucks.

Hey I just discovered that there is an official Micro Blog app for Android! I totally missed that. I must have been sleeping during class again. It’s nice and works well.

If /e/ foundation made an /e/OS tablet I would purchase it. If they made a 4G tablet with US carriers I would run and purchase it.

I was delighted to find a FOSS Internet Radio app via F-Droid for my /e/OS phone last night. This morning it’s still stuck on trying to download a list of stations. I get the big swirlie thing. Story of my life.

I just joined Tumblr. After listening to this podcast about Tumblr becoming a better Twitter than Twitter. So I’m preparing the ground should I ever have to leave Twitter.

Thank you so much for the page obscuring, pop-up asking me to sign up for your newsletter. Of course, that’s exactly why I stopped by your website, to sign up for, yet another ad choked newsletter with a popup no less. It really must be - special.
