And if you are an Apple user, you will soon receive a bonus self-surveillance OS update. In a shocking twist, just as Apple was converting Android users to iPhone users, many of those tired of Google’s nonchalant and Adsense-y stance towards privacy, they drop this bomb. Needless to say, except for die-hard fanboys, the rest of the internet is ablaze. This is nothing short of a trojan horse to be abused by various regimes and governments and agencies around the world. It’s not like Apple is going to make dramatic principled stands when it comes to that: we already have plenty of examples of Big Tech rolling over to demands from Emperors and Czars all around the world in order to protect their profits…

Mayhaps the time is right to revisit the Linux phone? 🙂

We start with the Adorama daily deal (changes Sunday 10am ET) where you can get the new condition Flashpoint M1 Mini Mobile Phone Flash (A1 Mini) for $15 with free US shipping…

Then at DiscountMAGS we go where the weekend sale theme (ends Monday night actually) is $5 per magazines per year. No camera/photo magazine but there are a few [not a lot like usual] “six degrees of separation” plus a little bit of an A/V theme under “Tech” (Stereophile and Sound-n-Vision [no, not the David Bowie box set])…

Good until August 1st, there’s an automatic in-cart sitewide 20% off discount with free US shipping at the RX Bar online shop. You see the regular price, then add the item(s) of interest to the shopping cart, and the 20% off discount appears there in the shopping cart. Note that some items have “natural flavors”. Note also that they recently expanded their product line-up and some of their new “nut butter packs” look like the RXbars on the flattened screen, so be sure you are buying the RXbars and not the nut-butter-packs [if that’s what you want]… I’ve eaten hundreds of Rxbars and look at where I am [this reads more like an anti-endorsement LOL]. My favorites in no particular order Maple Sea Salt, Dark Chocolate, and Coconut Chocolate… If you are new to this, try the Variety Packs… I haven’t tried any of their “breakfasty” stuff, so I can’t tell you anything about them [let’s not forget that cereal was invented as an anti-viagra way back; are you sure you want to be eating that? LOL {and that’s before we consider GMO, empty refined blood-sugar-spiking carbs, not-really-natural natural flavors, food colorings, food glueware, and other yucky things]

Is this turning into a Foodie Blog? Probably not 🙂 Is it getting more random and out of control? Probably yes 🙂

Then at the Saturday Woot daily deals we go where the headliner is a MacBook/MacMini sale ($520 to $1400), and there’s refurbished iMacs ($350 to $650), Birkenstocks for the corporate hippies, and more 😉

Best advertisement for Macs? A picture of Windows and a picture of a 10-line Linux command line 😉

THEN WE HEAD OFF to the Saturday Best Buy dailies where we find another iteration of the Insignia single-use battery sale, a $950 MSI gaming laptop, a $110 Vankyo mini projector, and such…

Then to the Saturday NewEGG dailies we go where we find a Samsung internal SSD, 12TB Seagate Expansion for $260 AC, LG TV, RAM, car digital meter, and all sorts of other techie thingies…

The Saturday Amazon USA Gold Box has more of a house theme, with offers on Echo Buds, Toshiba Smart Fire TV, under-the-desk elliptical, and more…

PRO TIP on Samsung Galaxy phones: if you are planning to use many of the extra features Samsung loads on the phone, it may be a good idea to buy a higher-spec phone that you would normally use (eg if you had been buying a stock-like Android phone). While you may not find a lot of their extra features useful, they do have a lot of useful features that need memory and processing power (Secure Folder, Edge Panels, S-Pens, three tier lock-screens (including the always-on-display), etc). Of course the list of what one finds useful varies by person, which is why Samsung loads it up with hundreds of extras 🙂 The last time I got a new Galaxy phone, when I did the initial system update, it had over 400 (!!!) apps pre-installed. LOL. So much for going away from the TouchWiz overstuffing 🙂

THEN we dial down the yellow on our monitors and head on over to the Best Buy dailies where they have:
