When you install iOS updates, iTunes verifies the update's checksums with Apple's servers. If there's a mismatch, it won't let you install. Up until that point, modifying the iOS update file was a common jailbreak method.

What's to stop the NYPD from getting awarrant and finding out out his email address?

They are manipulating the numbers to make it seem smaller. YouTube streams 4 billion videos per day; Netflix streams 4 billion hours of video per quarter; the NSA is probably ignoring most of that (except the names of videos people watch and like, and comments). Stuff like that makes the amount of data read and spied…

oh I got the joke, but I'm being pedantic about the "over budget" phrase. If you said that's why stuff used to be built faster than it would be accurate, but "on-time and over budget" means it went longer than predicted.

Sheesh, what the heck is wrong with people? This trend is like a decade old, and is still not safe.

OSHA isn't the reason things go over time or budget. Everyone budgets in workplace safety, so going over is not due to them.

That's like saying if my neighbors got richer than me, I've 'lost' income. I know the feeling of being left behind in new features, but that's the problem with the entire industry. My Intel i5 Processor is now old compared to the i7 and the new MacBooks announced last week. It's life, not loss.

Well now you're making a different argument. Your device still does everything it could do at when it left the factory, and even more things via software updates. You haven't lost anything, except the #1 spot in the current processor market, so what? Grow up.

Stop demanding radical changes. iOS 6 works just fine for me, and now I'm worried Apple made a new update that's way too different and complicated just to satisfy the demands of people like you who want something new. So many things not broken in iOS 6 and now they may be for the next release.

That's not the definition of fragmentation. The iPhone 4 and up get the latest OS, with all the most recent APIs, meaning your apps will work on all devices. Contrast that with Android's fragmentation and the difficulty for developers supporting several major OS releases (meaning some APIs are available and some not)…

What are you getting so upset about? Your iPad can do everything it could since the moment you bought it, and even more features since the iOS 6 update. You haven't lost anything, and newer iPads don't make your existing iPad any less awesome.

You swapped the iOS and android links.

You'd be stunned at how many people lack common sense on PCs. My mother still can't right-click properly.

I actually found the lack of Eject button to be a GOOD thing. Ever eject a floppy while an app on it is running? People on PCs had so many crashes and data losses as a result.

Apple had some of the nicest sounding floppy drives. PC drives had loud clicks and scrapes, while Macs had a smooth hum (and no eject button on the drive itself)

Yeah, and what if they poison the food, which would kill even more people that way!

This was wonderful. I wonder if the people they were trying to interview them assumed this was part of some sort of prank. Ever since The Daily Show and some other YouTube pranks, I feel like politicians are afraid to get into unscripted stuff lest it go badly. It's a shame really.

James Randi has spent his life debunking psychics, cold readers, etc. He has a $1 million prize for anyone who can accurately do the paranormal stuff they claim in an actual science lab. Dozens of people try every year in his lab and fail.

I think thieves are getting smarter and putting the phone in Airplane mode so that they can't be tracked post-robbery. Even so, I turn on Parental Restrictions on the iPhone so that you can't disable the Find My iPhone feature.

You mean Apple's Find My iPhone feature? It's been built-in for years.
