iPhone 6 here, but I wouldn’t have thought that’d make a difference. I remember having that option somewhere in Settings prior to iOS 10, but it’s definitely gone. If you turn it off, what appears at the top of each Message thread? Is it still the circle with the initial of the contact or does it revert back to just…

I don’t have that option. Are you sure it’s still there? Seems like I remember being able to turn off Contact photos in the past, but can’t find that anywhere anymore.

That’s odd, Bill Clinton is claiming the same thing.

When I was in the AF in the late 90's, stationed on the east coast on an F-16 base, they evacuated all of the aircraft inland to OH during hurricane threats. Except for a couple that were being maintenaned, but they just locked those up in a hangar. Happened two or three times while I was there. Strange sight to see a…

Our area is home to wintering bald eagles that migrate down from the north. We go eagle watching every year. Awesome to see them catch fish in the river or steal a fish right out of the talons of another flying eagle. Sometimes they’ll fly into one in mid-flight that already caught a fish to get it to drop it. Then…

Hitler’s mummy?

At least when it was “sex sells,” I got to watch attractive women. But now that it’s this “drama sells” bullshit, we get stuck with kardashians, housewives, and a bunch of bearded hipsters on YouTube.

One girl used the hashtag “#150mphwinds.” Another girl posted a video and even says in the video that they were reported as 25 ft. waves, yet she uses the hashtag “50ftwaves.” It’s crazy enough without all of the exaggeration, but let’s be sure to impress all those tweeter people.

I’m impressed that the video taker barely even flinched when it exploded and didn’t yell out some form of expletive. But she loses points for vertical video.

Since Russia held most of the world’s supply of titanium, the U.S. set up several dummy companies that were used to buy enough of it to build the Blackbird family. Thanks, Russia.

I didn’t realize the auto industry has the same types of commenters as Apple/Android. “Ford can’t call this new & innovative. My GM has had these features for years.”

There’s a lot of talk going around as to why Bigfoot isn’t a part of Monster Jam. Supposedly Chandler had a falling out with USHRA in the 90’s, and since they sanction Monster Jam, Chandler never returned to their events. It’s also said that Feld Motorsports (owners of Monster Jam) prefer to own the rights to the…

I don’t know anything about the car. So it’s an A/C motor powered by a D/C source?

So I was watching a show the other day, I think it was on the American History Channel. It was the story of the “competition” between Edison and Tesla. Edison was in favor of D/C power because it had already been widely used, not to mention he also held several patents on the technology. Tesla was working on and…

First off, I’m pro-choice. But even I recognize that the trafficking of unborn baby parts by PP is absolutely disgusting. Everything about their attitude, the heartless nature is inhuman. All the talk about “attacking women’s health” is just another bullshit narrative played out by partisan assholes. I don’t have the…

When I flip the swtich to turn wifi calling on, I get a privacy warning. Part of it says:

This sounds exactly like “Family Safety” found on Windows 7. Maybe Windows 8 too, I don’t know. I can block certain content and, as it says in the article, logs websites and programs used. Then emails the parent with the info. I’ve used it for my own child. It IS NOT a keylogger. For Windows 7, it had to be…

Don’t mind me, I’m just admiring the updraft on that huge cumulonimbus in the background.

Can’t help but wonder if Gizmodo, or any other GM blog, would promote a kinja article to the front page that fully supported the 2nd Amendment and the right for all citizens to own guns (those who can own them legally, that is). I seriously doubt it. Never seen one on Giz. But hey, this is 2015 in America, after all.…
