That article (from 2018!) is just like reading a dystopian #SciFi novel, all newspeak and doublethink: "The chip also supports the Android Strongbox Keymaster module, including Trusted User Presence and Protected Confirmation" https://www.androidauthority.com/titan-m-security-chip-915888/ -

Or I infect myself with a bio-virus to alter my DNA with a malDNA sequence that crashes DNA sequencers so I can go on a crime spree without getting caught. #Muhahaha! More !scifi, courtesy of https://www.wired.com/story/malware-dna-hack -

♻ indojin: If you're into sci-fi audio drama, then check out 'Wolf 359' and 'The Strange Case of Starship Iris'. The former will end this season while the latter is only 6 episodes into its epic voyage. ¶ !SciFi -

All my computers are named after !SciFi authors. Started with Asimov, Bradbury, Clarke, DelRey, Ellison; had a series of Simak, Sturgeon, Spinrad, and now I'm up to Zelazny. Grasped at straws for Jeppson and Leonard (Elmore? Nimoy?) -

I read 'A Logic Named Joe' in Analog !SciFi magazine in the early 1980's. But think I can find it again in my stack of magazines? Thanx for the link! -

@davexunit@quitter.se I'm right in the middle of 'Contact' the book, and I've been saving 'Contact' the DVD until I finish the book. Excellent reading so far; I'm about halfway through. !SciFi -

♻ @themightyglider I just finished reading 'Forever War' by Joe Haldeman. Now I know why people call it a classic of SF literature. There are some interesting thoughts about war and human nature inside this book. I really can recommend everyone who like SF at least a bit to read it. ¶ !SciFi -

I read Isaac Asimov's short story "Nightfall" many, many years ago. Didn't read the novelization by Robert Silverberg, but I did read the Silverberg novelization of "The Ugly Little Boy", which was very well done. Somewhere I have a non-fiction book by Silverberg on ancient civilizations that I'm half-way through. That was good too; I'll have to shovel through some other debris to… -

Reminds me of Sturgeon's Law: "90% of !SciFi is crap, but then 90% of everything is crap." So let me formulate @KZimmermann's law: "Disabling #Javascript blocks 98% of advertising, but then disabling Javascript blocks 98% of everything." #Javascrippled -
