I had an issue with being double-charged for an app from the app store about 5 years ago. Went to Apple's support site, wrote a description of the problem, then was asked if I would like THEM to call ME. Not the other way around. Clicked yes, a calendar popped up in which I selected the time window in (IIRC) 10 minute increments when I wanted them to call me.
Within a couple minutes of the 'start' my phone rang and I was chatting with a nice guy (said his name was Daniel in Texas). He already had my records up and he called to ask me if I wanted a credit on my iTunes account or refund to my card. He then said he'd call me back when it was done. About 10 minutes later he called me back and said the credit was issued.
That is exemplary customer service and one reason their customer satisfaction is always rated so high.
Ever notice how the feds never go after Google or the Android phone makers to unlock things? They don't need to, they've been able to go balls-deep in Android since Day One.
Too bad only Apple seems to give a poop about security.
Here's an idea: How about someone writes an ad blocker that DOWNLOADS the ads, just like normal, but simply does not RENDER them on the screen, or execute any code?
There is an extension called Ad Nauseum that does what you seem to want. Check it out.
Florida is one giant slab of porous limestone. It's eroding from below as well, sinkholes surprise people all the time there. They can build all the dikes they want, they will collapse when the underlying ground dissolves.
The next iPhones should have the timer between password attempts and the "wipe after 10 tries" options moved from software to the security chips in silicon.
"Sure we can put in a hacked iOS version, but the counters and timers are all in chip and iOS cannot touch those."

I would have been down in the double digits if it were not for a Yoda doll, AstroGlide, grits, and an extended hospital stay.
Grass didn't yet evolve when I was your age. I had to tell kids to get off my gravel.
I never give access to my accounts for bill payments. I do it the old fashioned way by logging in and paying the bill myself at the bank's site.
This is /. : #8 and #11 are mutually exclusive.
#3 and #4 likely occur simultaneously. You can list them under one bullet point.
I bet Google made a secret deal with the judge to expunge his entire search history.
You can by the liquids without nicotine as well.
You can also buy de-alcoholized beer and I would bet the sales of both are similar: a drop in the bucket.
Don't make fun of those hipsters who felate electronic vapour-cocks. That's as close to sex as most of them can get.
I blocked subscribe.wired.com from running scripts and it's fine here.
RealDoll.
I'm sure they will have a new USB-C dongle for that.
Fortunately I've never been in this situation, but why would "Employees are now training their replacements"? Financial incentives?

It's like the late 90's again except we have cooler mobile phones.

You really shouldn't use so many CAPITAL LETTERS, it makes your well-argued and informative comment seem more like a rant.
50 nanometers?

Where do I send my $99 licensing fee?
Go full tard in speaking, writing, communicating...... then convince family and friends to do the same....
I've been trying this for years, but most of my family and friends don't want to join
Good to know, thanks. I'm still rocking the old iPhone 5 and should be updating soon. I thought counters and such were in code on all the iPhones.

Drunk and wide awake. Can't think of a scarier way to go throughout life.
Lemmy did it with booze and speed. He certainly seemed to have enjoyed it.
How much would it cost to print a RealDoll-type sex toy on one of these?
I'm asking for a friend.
My main computer and laptop are Macs. It was a joke, butthurt SJWs are hilarious in their rage.
