I'm not sure if everyone realises the implications of the mandatory registration for  #Android developers: https://www.androidauthority.com/android-developer-verification-requirements-3590911/

While there may be slightly less #malware on Android, the actual goal seems to be different:

Google is making Android a closed-off system, step by step. They want to get rid of unwelcome competition (including #FDroid) and also apps. Devs of apps such as #Revanced, #NewPipe, various tracking and adblockers in conflict with Google's revenue sources will certainly not be allowed to continue further for much longer. #Google is already harassing projects such as #Conversations or #Öffi via the #PlayStore. The system is also being walled-off in other places to put free alternatives in chains.

We desperately need a broad campaign to oppose this dangerous development. ✊ @fsfe @Framasoft

As much as I hate being old, I am so grateful that my personal time-stream lined up with Tom Baker's, and that I got to watch him in Doctor Who on Saturday nights in the 1970s.

Yes, today I can stream the same episodes, mega-restored in ultra-high-def whatever, but I'd much rather be watching at my Nan's house, sitting impatiently through the Grandstand teleprinter and Basil Brush's interminable jokes...

Happy Birthday, Tom, and thanks for the wonderful memories.

I watched #TheWarGames - in black and white!

I think it's wonderful; how the story morphs and grows as the serial progresses, how it ends its era dropping so many threads that would be picked up in #DoctorWho future by keeping things vague enough to be developed, rather than be dead ends.

Remarkably for a 10-parter it in no way drags, even the run about eps have a [sort of] point and develops that widening story.

The ending ep kills me and I love and despair at Jamie and Zoe's ending. Especially Zoe's; she grew a lot in her time and it's all gone and she knows, some part of her at the end KNOWS she's forgotten something and I hate it and love it. #DoctorWhoRewatch

"Incidentally, a Happy Christmas to all of you at home!"
