Of course he's immune from being kicked off Twitter, he is the best advertisement they could ever possibly buy (which they have for literally zero dollars).
He has abused people.
He has fanned hate speech.
He spreads blatantly false facts.
He has urged people to kill other people.
He has posted multiple times trying to goad other countries into literally nuclear war.
But he's still here. Gotta bring in those advertising dollars!
Correct, Android phones are (basically) an open book. There is some encryption but nothing near the level of protection of an iPhone. Yes, your friend isn't going to pick up your phone off the table and get past your passcode, but if someone with resources wants in to an Android phone, they're getting in fairly easily.
Your post stinks of old person "back in my day" speeches.
"Back in my day we only had 4 channels, and everything was on those 4 channels, and all we needed was an antenna! We didn't need to pay for cable!"
Suck it the fuck up, different companies charge for their stuff, and your $8/month isn't going to get you everything. Go back to a $100/month cable bill. Or just subscribe to the stuff you want. Do a little work and find which places have what you want. Even paying for multiple services is going to be cheaper than cable.
Looks like Tidal was a cash grab hoping to get acquired by a larger company before they ran out of income. I assume the manipulated numbers for Kanye and Beyonce were because they were getting restless that the offer of a buyout hadn't come as fast as was promised behind closed doors when Jay Z was looking for investors.

Netflix original content now drives 20% of viewership.
That's goddam amazing considering how long they've actually been making original content. OPs title tries to make this seem like a bad thing, it's not. Were they supposed to take 50% of all views within a couple years?
I can't tell if you're being incredibly sarcastic, drunk and high at the same time, or experiencing a serious mental issue.
If you're being sarcastic, the joke has gone so far back around the whole circle that it's just coming off as ignorant. If it's anything else other than you trying to make a funny and just whiffing so hard it looks like you had a stroke, please seek some professional help. You're seriously off the deep end here.
I come to slashdot to be informed about trailers for movies. I don't care about actual technical news, or stuff about tech. I definitely come here to be informed about FUCKING MOVIE TRAILERS.
Animojis from the iPhone X or AR Emojis from the S9 may not be your thing, but they are absolutely driving interest in the flagship phones from both companies.
I don't want to say you're getting old and the world has moved beyond you, but you should really think about how the tech in a simple phone these days is brushing up against million dollar Hollywood mocap tech. Obviously, there's an exponential difference between the two, but the fact that a cell phone can even give something close to that in real time should be something you appreciate, not tell people to get off your lawn about.
Well-well look. I already told you: I deal with the goddamn customers so the engineers don't have to! I have people skills; I am good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?
You can be sure they've calculated this into their plans, and will be reviewing their camera footage and sending you a bill. Remember, you've identified yourself just to get into the store.
"Elected world leaders play a critical role in that conversation"
OK. I can get behind that. Elected leaders have a bigger say than just some scrub. Their influence is more impactful, so they should be given some leniency on what they say.
If their views are so important that they are allowed around the rules, why are they allowed to delete their tweets then? I don't mean 10 seconds after they clicked post and saw they made a massive spelling error. I mean why is Trump allowed to go back and retroactively delete every tweet he made praising people he backed but then lost their elections?
Fuck you Twitter. You are full of shit. The only reason you haven't blocked our retard in chief is that he keeps views coming to you for those sweet advertising dollars.
I've been using the same printer, and even the same cartridge, since 2008. I print very little. I would have gone through 10 sets of inkjet cartridges or more due to them drying out by now.
And instead of accepting that automation is the future and working on a potential solution for the inevitable problem, republicans choose to blame anyone but themselves, while trying to pass a tax bill that lets the ultra rich take one last pass at scraping every cent they can from the poor before they die and let their children deal with the ultimate collapse.
Who cares about saving the planet when I'll be dead before destroying it in the name of profits actually causes me to be inconvenienced.
Special app? You mean iTunes? You make a ringtone in iTunes, the only "hard" part is you rename the file from a.m4a extension to a.m4r extension, then use iTunes to move it to your phone. You don't need any special app to "import" it to the phone, you just use iTunes.
I have taught 80-year-old people how to do this.
Sorry you hate Apple enough that you never looked up how to do it?
You should probably reevaluate your outlook on life. If someones job determines if you would help them or not when they were in a life threatening situation, your brain is broken and you should probably seek some help.
Your S8 has a fingerprint sensor embedded in the screen, the entire screen, so you can touch anywhere on the screen and have your fingerprint scanned? You mean it's not on the back of the phone like in real life S8's?

Never fails. The guaranteed "Apple is dying/dead" comment."
Take a bow, you did it!

As opposed to that same person forcing your finger on the home button? At least with Face ID you can close your eyes and it won't unlock.
I still count iPhones and iPads as computers. The form factor is different, but it's still a computer.

And how much would you be willing to pay for a service like that? I can promise it won't be anywhere near $10/month.
Your post stinks of old person "back in my day" speeches.

Pick 1:
-Cheap
-Everything
I can't tell if you're promoting sharing accounts or not buying the service.
Nobodys forcing you to buy it. You can always continue to use the cheaper service.
WOOSH
That's the sound of a joke sailing way over your head.

It blows my mind that people of this generation are so lazy that they won't go out and do things that get their jeans worn.
They have to pay people to fake wear on their clothes so that other people think that the owner did things that made their clothes get worn.

Spend the extra few bucks on a laser.
You forgot to finish your thought:

Late stage/End stage capitalism right here.
An article about Apple that has literally no negative connotations. .
Even though it'll be hard to twist this post into an anti-Apple argument, vigilant posters will find a way.
And that company would be...?
