They pay taxes on all income earned in the US to the IRS. Minus deductions and stuff. What the fuck does that have to do with where the phone is manufactured?
You seem to be a fucking moron. Go learn some basic economics and be shocked and amazed that at no time is the price of a product directly related to the cost of its manufacture. The cost may set a lower bound, but loss-leaders are called that for a reason. If you could buy iPhones cheaper from someone else, Apple would be gouging you. But you can't, so they aren't.
On the totally other side, suppose only one candidate, Candidate X, is qualified for the office. Is saying so not a fact?
Facts are things that happen. If a candidate meets the legal qualifications for POTUS, it is a fact that they have met those qualifications. If some random shit has an opinion they pulled out of their anus, that is not a fact. So, it depends on which definition of "qualification" you are using.
I suspect that it was something other than taste. The "typical" farm animals bred for meat are easy to feed. There are still parts of the world where sheep and cows are allowed to graze, with the food coming for free (to the shepherd/farmer). Also, these animals tend to have a lot more meat per "hoof" than dogs and other animals.
So you're a fucking ignorant bag of shit and you post to slashdot to share that with us. So you're also an incredible moron and, unfortunately, not quite too stupid to continue breathing.
iPhone batteries are replaceable. There's probably a dozen places in a mile radius from my location that will do it cheap. I know it's not what you want, but as I haven't owned any iOS devices long enough for the battery to require a replacement, I don't really care.
Duo is at least dual-platform. Skype's quality sucks everywhere. WhatsApp didn't become popular for video chat. It became popular for text messaging. That's kind of why we're posting comments to a story about WhatsApp adding video chat.
Most alternatives to FT suck horribly. Skype gets worse by the day, it seems, even without updates. Duo has bad audio, much like Hangouts before it. Hangouts was better, but not by much. On the PC you have some better options, but comparing those to mobile options is missing the point of having a mobile.
Most people in the world want stuff that works. No one cares about vendor lock-in with their phones because there's no lock-in. Get a different phone. Done,
Tivo-ized refers to the using of Open Source software and preventing the update of said software on the Tivo-ized device. How is your standard Android phone not a perfect example of this?
Someone should poke your eyeballs out and force you to walk endlessly in a parking lot full of electric cars coming and going. You'll survive for a while, but you won't enjoy it.
What type should be used instead? I suppose a double would allow for even greater levels of precision, but how many programmers using coordinates have that level of precision available for the coordinate measurement?
I've worked with lots of people like that boss. If you try and get more detail, you're chided for not working quickly enough, or for bothering them. My policy is always to give such people what they ask for. If they can't or won't learn, that's not my problem. Their spouse/parents/pet can change them. It's not my job.
So what? The negative results of climate change are not going to significantly affect me or any of my relatives during my lifetime. It's not at all logical to care about people who aren't alive yet, and who may never be alive. And why should anyone living today care whether humans in the future will make any technological progress?
There are reasons to take care of the planet. Yours are completely illogical and rely purely on emotion.
Funny. I've been in dozens of different synagogues. I've never seen an area blocked off for religious reasons. (Locking up the Rabbi's office is just common sense.)
did you forget it requires an adapter to connect an iphone?
Did you forget that Apple could easily release a USB-C-to-lightning cable that will obviate the need to use a dongle with an existing USB-A-to-lightning cable?
Did you forget what the words won't age well actually mean?
We're talking about the 2016 MBPro, which doesn't have an SD slot. I think you should douse yourself in oil and light your hair on fire. You'll fix all your problems that way.
When the human population was at half its current value, the percentage of starving people was probably the same, or higher. And the reasons were the same, too.
Population itself is not the problem, no matter how much of a shit you want to make of yourself.

You should stop believing in fairytales. The internet was not designed to survive nuclear war. Hopefully, its ability to do so will never be tested.

I am genetically human, but to each its own.
