   So Barbie was a chance to point out the misogyny in our society, and it worked.

   So what, I wonder what Margot Robbie will address in Monopoly.

   Maybe......monopolies? Rampant unregulated capitalism?

   If so, I cannot wait.

   @alex @dangillmor I have a lenovo tablet ... and when talking about them we shouldn't ignore that they do contain quite a bit of not uninstallable bloatware.

   At one time they pestered me every week to make a display break insurance (not sure on the exact English term).

   Eventually I used a tool that debloats via "adb". But I removed one app too much, and the device went into a bootloop. After factory reset I debloated less apps until it fibally worked.

   So, generally I cannot recommend the "Lenovo experience". They, like many vendors, treat you as if they still own the device. Marking apps as not uninstallable and not even deactivable is a no-no to me.

   On any other day, it wouldn't have had a chance. Today - right after I had my luggage wrecked, while I'm still jetlagged, and after days of dealing with my airline's terrible outsource partner - it almost worked.

   So much fraud is a Swiss-cheese attack, and while companies can't close all the holes, they can stop creating new ones.
