Do we need to fact check?

Had a funny thought:

Minority Report combined with WorldCoin.

They force scan your eyeballs so they can compel you to take the UBI and stimulate the economy.

I would venture the could be a version of red mulberries or wild raspberries.

Or unripe blackberries but they done look bulbous enough.

I don’t know about the business proof, but the transfer to cash should be easy if you have the bank account there.

Dollars sent from your Stike USD account.

Received in different Strike account with Uganda shilling set as the receiver’s default currency. Transfer the shilling to the local branch of your bank and withdraw the cash.

I haven’t done business in Uganda but I would hope they can do bank transfers when both accounts are in the local currency.

There is certainly a privacy-centric group that would be happy to do without a camera.

And if a very simple one can be used to scan QR codes, it would keep the cost down.

Optionality is good.

Which is one of the things that stood out to me regarding the Calyx Institute phones. Seemed a lot more reasonably priced than I was expecting.

Seems like a good option for my grandmother who hopped of the tech train with her vhs.

I heard about this the other day. Can get a phone sent from Calyx with everything pre-loaded:

Personally, I picked up a used phone from someone I knew and flashed #GrapheneOS myself. Incredibly simple if you want to go the route of trusting Graphene’s site with the install.

Update:

#GrapheneOS is working well.

Trying the non-Google Play Store route and testing two different setups on different users.

Biggest challenge so far has been the continued use of iPhone while learning Android. The swipe up/down differences are frustrating for muscle memory.

Haven’t tried using it as a daily driver yet. Mostly because I set it up with no SIM.

One app has presented a challenge and given me an error that a certain function could not be performed because the app was not downloaded directly from the Google Play Store. Still some troubleshooting to do.

I have heard good things about the Google Pixel phones.

If you are privacy focused, I recommend this podcast episode:

They discuss the trade offs and how there is always the smallest kernel of hardware that is not open source. But Samsung phones seem to have larger portions of this if that is your thing.

Also, if you go with the Pixel, I have heard the 4 isn’t able to keep up very well. Need at least a Pixel 5 or newer.
