InMobi Services
Interesting. It says the service ..."was started by its app", then shows its app as "Media / android.process.media", and has the standard Android logo.
MTKLogger
Same idea, and it shows MTKLogger / com.mediatek.mtklogger as the associated process.
Both have been killed.
I've probably tried to root this tablet a long time ago, and--reading about MTKLogger--this is probably how I ended up with it. Sounds like something I should get rid of...if I can...?

That doesn't sound good at all 
But if an app hasn't requested (and hasn't been granted) permission to read storage, does it REALLY mean it can't access storage? I read about some malware that don't request these permissions (so they don't even show up on the Play store in the permissions section) but once downloaded, they 'phone home' to download more executable code that has a malicious payload, which includes access to, say, storage that the original app didn't have. How tight is the sandbox really?
I just wonder if your app might be doing something like this. One thing you can do is install a firewall and see what IPs the app connects to. I've used NoRoot Firewall by Greyshirts (who came up with that name?  ) in the past that can do this.

There was quite a debate about that at the pub just last night.
Four guys at the next table arguing vociferously until they could hardly speak.
After an hour they were four hoarse men.

We're actually living in a matrix, the end of the world was on December 21, 2012.
I may not be that good looking, or athletic, or funny, or talented, or smart
I forgot where I was going with this but I do know I love bacon!

The matrix is telling your brain that it is delicious. There is no bacon.

I am assuming you cooked them to perfection. Ate them till your ravenous appetite was sated. Drifted off into fish taco lullaby land.
Please tell me it is so.

They were most enjoyable. Nice and spicy - but not so spicy you couldn't taste the fish - crisp taco shell, fresh salad. Worth the wait!

uopz_rename — Rename a function at runtime
<?php
uopz_rename("strlen", "original_strlen");
echo original_strlen("Hello World");
?>
This is how framework bloats start to happen?

Maybe to write your own strlen...

Although in some strange realm that may be something one needs to do, if one were writing their own strlen(...), would it not be better to give it its own name, too? Or maybe create some weird-ass overload if the language permits it?
On the other hand, if it's scope is wide enough, think of the fun you could have with other members of some team when their code goes insane for no discernible reason.

One of the reasons I refuse to work in Ruby. Monkey-patching.
Or this amusing what-if scenario:
You can add methods right to core classes! You don’t have to call Time.now.advance(days: -1), you can write 1.day.ago! It makes Ruby a joy to read and write. Until…
You hit weird bugs because a patch changed Hash.
You get confused about which code actually ran, so you can’t debug it when it breaks.
And you finally figure out that all your problems were caused six months ago, when you monkey-patched Enumerable to make one line of code five characters shorter.
