In this episode:

• New Revelation: always keep a 3cm gap between logs (and humans)
• Wayne can't find the link but somewhere he read that number of car accidents significantly increased following mandatory seat belt laws - false security.
• Does other peoples' technology choices impact others?
• Here is one example article in The Guardian about the desire of some to regulating Facebook (such as how a tobacco or alcohol company needs to be regulated).
• Should we regulate Ubuntu Touch? We must assume bad apples will come...
• Everything should be opt-in (ie. NSFW), so you don't have to 'un-see' something.
• We hit 2000 people in the Telegram supergroup, yay. Here is a goofy fake movie trailer to celebrate. But what does that mean?
• UBports Community: Strengths, weaknesses, goals, etc.
• Where do people in the community disappear to? Busy, life events, etc.
• Have we marketed ourselves well?
• A listener (Dennis) speaks out! Hear his words with a movie trailer voice.
• Wayne believes a strong startup company ('Newco') will help project growth a lot.
• Keep freedom of devices. "I don't need less I need different at different times" - Dennis
• Joe was wondering about what 'leeway' means.
• Wayne validates Joe. Joe validates Wayne. That's a lot of validation...
• Joe likes his three devices. Wayne tries to 'hard sell' Joe to accept one device.
• Kaptain Krille sends a 'Why Firefox OS failed' video - a must watch if the big picture topic interests you.
• Is Ubuntu Touch convergence a solution in Africa (and other places) to reduce asset theft of fixed computers? Wayne heard a recent story that makes him think this would be a perfect fit.
• Landline Telephone and Convergence: Joe is sure there is a correlation connection but - they couldn't figure out what it is..
• Let's seriously discuss this on the forum! (Joe is sick and tired of talking about convergence). Here is a dedicated convergence topic discussion
• Some quick hardware worth looking at:
• Pinebook! Cheap!
• Shift(phones)
• Fairphone 2 goes down in price, it seems. Wayne forgot Euro conversion so price is actually $450.00 USD
