By “news” do you mean celebrity gossip?

The reason it doesn’t have a bidding war is because Twitter has never made a profit. They’ve lost over $2 billion since 2011. They haven’t figured out a way to make money on it, even after a decade of doing this.

Well, that was abrupt.

Then we’ll shoot a proton torpedo into them and blow the damn thing up!

Considering that it’s the Death Star and has a rather unsettling, dare I say prickly history with planets as a whole, I would say it’s a damn good thing that it’s pointed the other way.

What do you mean by a “proprietary stranglehold on their hardware?” As far as I can tell, all they do is defend their patents like any other tech company would. Can you elaborate?

Thank you for that bit of civility.

Honestly, I think the John Williams Superman theme might be the entire reason I liked Superman Returns.

Wow, that has my story beat. A few weeks ago I was shopping at a football (soccer) gear shop and the man running it rang me up on a computer he’s had since 1994. I want to say it was a Packard Bell, but I’m not sure about that. He had to manually type in the product code of each item I bought, and then printed out

I’m guessing he didn’t drop his AirPods in the toilet, since they won’t be released until next month.

I guess that’s why there isn’t a “Rexy-paddle.”

Man, imagine if he fell off. How long do you think it would take for that suit to fill with water and drown him?

All fine and good, in regards to the “Rest Finger to Open” option, you’ll need to keep “raise to wake” on, because you’re going to have to wake the phone up to unlock it anyway. You could also accomplish this by, you know, hitting the home button.

Jeez, and people wonder why the climate is changing. Now we have to charge candles? What’s next in our all-consuming quest for more power? Maybe a Smart Garden Gnome; you can control how tacky your garden is with your iPhone. Coming soon, the Smart Hamster Wheel complete with GPS! Fluffy needs to know where he’s

So, yeah—I can see getting rid of something you pay $10/month for because of annoying commercials. Isn’t that why folks have DVRs and various Amazon Primes, Hulus, etc?

So... you’re not cancelling your subscription because of any failing of the service itself, or because you’re unhappy with the product. It’s not because you take offense to Apple’s business practices or because you find something morally reprehensible about the company or their messaging. You just don’t like their

Potem-Kin? That doesn’t seem right to me.

True, that was awesome, but it wasn’t a movie.

Actually, The Clone Wars was the first Star Wars film not scored by John Williams.
