I completely disagree. How often lately have you had poor internet speed due to actual internet traffic? This isn’t 2007 where a bunch of iPhones slowed AT&T’s network to a crawl in NYC (and even then AT&T spent less than they should on building new towers, pocketing billions of dollars in higher fees rather than…

Do you wanna buy internet? Or PREMIUM AT&T Internet™ ?

This has been done before on smaller scales; at least one UK town had everyone give a blood sample for a massive blood type study, and I believe Netherlands DNA tested all dogs, so that they can trace people who don’t curb their dog and issue fines.

If merchants don’t accept BitCoin, I worry the entire thing will just crash. It looks like a one-way bubble as people buy them and do nothing with them.

The “liberal mainstream media” myth essentially came around under Bush. When those WMDs were not found, Republicans tried so hard to spin the Iraq war as a success even though it was apparent to everyone that it was falling apart. Fox News kept carrying water for him, and so did talk radio, and they relentlessly…

We’ve known about online Russian trolls, or “influencers” since 2016:

Apple had a clever solution at the time, you could “share” a CD/DVD drive across the network (Windows or PC) to the Macbook Air.

I say we all migrate to Instagram. Problem is Facebook owns them.

That’s a strawman. Nobody is talking about viruses here. And nobody said Macs and iPhones were perfect either. This sounds like you want to milk this incident to puff up your “side.”

You are not the target market. It’s like complaining that BMW is not for you, and you would be better served by a Toyota.

The dongle solved all my problems. It comes in the iPhone box along with the lightning headphones

That’s not fair. Steve Jobs watched what worked at Apple, NeXT, and Pixar, and put those items into work at Apple Park. Areas where employees can congregate, mixing between departments, greenery, etc. I believe most of the glass is the outside windows anyway.

This is a repeat of when Gizmodo had a stolen iPhone 4 prototype in 2010. Apple doesn’t have to say it’s the next phone, or one coming for sale, or what its features are, they just have to claim it as their property and won’t say more.

“Millions” is a stretch. How many active jailbreak developers are there?

No, Apple merely has to say the code is theirs, whether it’s in use or not. They could plausibly say its copyrighted code for a prototype.

Hey Siri no longer needs to be connected to power to work. That’s been around since iPhone 6S I think, as Apple made a smaller subprocessor to prevent battery drain.

And if my grandmother had balls she would be my grandfather.

The problem is merchants and vendors are not accepting the currency. That means people are only buying and holding it instead of trading it for goods, or trading it back to dollars. That sort of unbalance creates a bubble.

Magnetic fields interact with non-ferrous things at an atomic level, they don’t attract them like it does with ferrous materials. (the MRI is picking up radio waves from your body’s hydrogen atoms as the field collapses)

Ah, I see your mistake now. MRI scanners work in 2 cycles. It first charges the magnetic field to line up all your atoms, which is when you feel the vibration of the machine. The second cycle is when they switch off the magnets, allowing the atoms to scramble back into their random orientations (this is when they emit…
