lack of support for the Dolby Atmos audio standard
I doubt there's a single consumer thinking that Dolby Atmos is a compelling reason to buy a phone.
In theaters, Dolby Atmos is a 128-channel audio coding standard with spatial metadata and auditoriums can use dozens of pairs of speakers, including overhead for accurate spatial simulation.
On a phone, it's at best a dual-stereo speaker setup, but maybe the upper stereo speakers are pointed upward. Using the same name for both is a gimmick, and honestly Atmos only offers a little bit of precision over a standard 5.1 setup.
Or, put another way - If it wasn't the fault of D-Link's negligence, then anyone harmed by the botnet has a claim against each individual owner of a compromised router.
Because then you have to admit it's always been around and you don't have to fall for it. Coin a new term and no one will blame your innocent self for trusting it.
That's not true. It's a violation of the DMCA and you keep your warranty. Some claims may not be honored if they can be proven to be a direct result of the modification - but it's otherwise illegal to nullify an entire warranty over a single change. And yes - the company will try to claim that everything is a direct result, so you may have a burden of proof.
I think you underestimate how many people use Facebook on a mobile device with full access to location services - and in 3rd-world countries there are few desktop web site users anyway. They would have a pretty accurate mapping, even if it's not 1:1 per every human.
While that's true, I would bet most of the complaints are about recommendations involving expensive equipment that some smaller hospitals overseas don't have. If you have that available, it's likely the best option. If it's not, then it's a huge waste of time.
The money doesn't come from you, it comes from the people that employ you. Even if they try to say they can't afford to pay you as much as result, that's a lie.
The stock market has a huge influence on this. A small private corporation only has to pay its employees and CEO a salary and cover operational expenses. A publicly traded corporation needs corporate profit to survive and pay its shareholders money time and again. They get this extra money by squeezing everything dry from top to bottom - from buying regulatory freedom to cutting wages to the bare minimum except at the very top. Stock investment is like a loan, except you're never ever going to have the interest paid off (unless you privatize by buying out all the shares).
tl;dr You and the environment are both victims of greed.
It would be more likely for a fish to form a symbiotic relationship with one of the microbes that can already digest plastics. Lots of bacteria in the human digestive tract, for example.
If your ISP uses the same DHCP pool for a wide area, that will happen. Of course, large companies might pay for data from other tracking sites where you have provided that info (Facebook, Google, etc). But by IP address alone, it's unlikely.
Chihuahua is a state in Mexico. Both the dog and the cheese are named after it - much like Cheddar is named after Cheddar, England and Pomeranian dogs are named after the Pomerania region of Germany.
I love walking out the door without letting them see my receipt. At the local store, they'll go outside and yell at you as you go. But they can't legally do anything to stop you. I can't tell you why it's so enjoyable, but if they're going to treat me like a criminal, I'll act like one.
It's definitely a joke. And even funnier, because of using cellular data operating in the microwave band - which people with pacemakers are already avoiding (at this close of a range, at least).
Apple doesn't even support TRIM on 3rd-party SSDs unless you explicitly force it. That's a standard ATA command. What makes you think they're going to do it any differently for filesystems?

No Such Acronym

and in one case a worn out usb port.
And if you buy the right Android phone, you can then just plug a $10 Qi pad onto your charger and keep on using your phone.
In a surprising twist, Apple actually used that standard for their own wireless charging.
It is not illegal, you just lose your warranty

I find that lots of people slide down slippery slopes during an ice storm.
Agree - I've only seen that problem (searching IP instead of navigating to IP) in IE.
As dumb as it is to reply, I still have to say that the plural of quantum is quanta.
Are they really not smart enough to know that there are privacy controls and there's not even a need for multiple accounts to accomplish all that?
There is no law stating you can only have one account.
No, but it's a violation of your user contract with FB.

I'm much more interested in having fun at parties, not being fun at parties. So they tend to be with smart people who like to know things.

Which would be fine, except that "GPS device" already has multiple well-defined meanings, and I was able to deduce the correct one through context.
FTFY. Next you'll be telling me that my "FM radio receiver" can't be called "radio" because someone used that word to describe a walkie-talkie.

, SMB, NFS, Rsync...
Can APFS be read by Windows machines? SAMBA?
Well...it can be read by Windows machines via SMB (Apple's implementation).
