The Facebook who claimed they couldn't take down copies of a single selfie of a Syrian refugee with German Chancellor Merkel from Fake News posts which falsely claim he's a terrorist? Because there was no technical way to do that?
Of course it would be named after Andre-Marie Ampere, the next one will be named after Alessandro Volta, but there was a lot of resistance about naming the third one after Georg Simon Ohm.

So name it after Ernst Werner von Siemens, who is the reciprocal of Georg Simon Ohm.
So legally Norwegian citizens are using German electricity, from dirty peat-burning plants, while Germans are using Norwegian hydro-electricity. And as Norwegian hydro-electric production is pretty close to its maximum, all extra power needed in Norway will likely be produced in those German plants.
Errm yeah. Just that there are no peat burning power plants in Germany. Or anywhere else in the continental EU. The only peat PPs in the EU are in Ireland - and how would you get the power from Ireland to Norway? By electric ferry?
Lol. 16 really is enough. UNLESS you are starting up virtual machines like windows that require a lot of ram. Lol.
There are plenty of situations where more than 16GB of RAM is necessary in content creation, high resolution video editing, 3d modeling, rendering, CAD, simulation, etc... Whether you understand that or not isn't really relevant though because as soon as Apple says 16GB isn't enough and releases machines with more you will start to parrot that tagline instead.
Well, people have been doing those things on the old MacBook Pros. How exactly couldn't they do that on the new ones?
Not to detract from your excellent points, but the hardware does matter. The lack of ports, ludicrously low max memory and useless gimmicks like the touch bar are causing professionals to walk away after the disastorous mac book pro relaunch. Lots of us don't want all in ones. Many of us don't have confidence that Cook knows what he's doing with the mac business generally.
And yet it is selling very well. Unlike, say, the Surface Studio that was announced the day before and that everybody here thought was a brilliant design - of course ignoring the complete lack of upgrade-ability, not to mention the obvious flaws like there being no room for the keyboard once you swivel it down for drawing.
That isn't how patents work. Every claim is independently asserted to be a novel invention. If someone violates even one claim, they're violating the patent.
Thanks for exactly explaining how a a patent doesn't work. I bet you are just as artistic with software.
why wouldn't you cite Ljungqvist's 2010 30-proxy reconstruction, which was more widely supported?
By "widely supported" you mean wildly quoted" by "sceptics" who ignored a few things from that reconstruction (like having less proxies from ca. 1970 on than for an year before back until 1 AD) - and of course the actual temperature record.
Mark Serreze is a well-known person in the climate debate community. But the link above is to HIS OWN data which directly contradicts his statements in the NYT article. I'm not attacking him personally, but I have substantive conflict with the way he conveyed the veracity and conclusions about his own data.
His own data, which he points out should not be used "when comparing trends in sea ice over time or when consistency is important". https://nsidc.org/data/masie/masie_faq
Because a tool do a certain thing is usually a terrible tool do do something else. Unless you try to prove a point that is only in your head. And MASIE is a tool to tell were the edges of sea ice are more precisely than other such surveys, and the area calculated is just a side product. https://nsidc.org/data/masie/about_masie
Yeah, they market it as a means of backup for iOS devices, if you can't do local backups (or really, really hate iTunes) https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203977. What does that have to do with the iCloud backup of a Mac the OP pretends exists?
Destroy all competition, or DAC is the precarious stage of a product life cycle in which the company has already recognized its products as stagnated and turns into destroying all competition instead of inventing marketable novelty. DAC stages are more typical for products of big companies with established ecosystems and revenue streams. -- Fake Marketing 101, Chapter 13
I think this is more alternate facts than anything, because the business case makes zero sense.
Apple invested a billion dollars into softbank. I don't know about you, but a billion dollars is a YUGGGGGGGGGEEEEEE amount. All for what? To kill a smartphone company who hasn't even released a phone yet? That makes zero business sense - they don't have a phone, they don't have a prototype, they don't have anything. And you don't know how much it costs, or what market they're targeting.
It makes even less sense when you consider the YUGGGGGGGGGEEEEEE Apple investment we are talking about went into a $100 billion fund. IOW they are only a 1% investor - how much leverage dies that buy you in an fund that maybe has a dozen investors?
No, but people are arrested or censored for saying things someone doesn't like. Just look up George Carlin's 7 words you can't say on television.
In this case, it was a picture sent (most likely) with the intent to injure or induce a seizure. There's a difference between offensive and injurious intent.
Nobody was censored for sending an image, the image was send to censor somebody who wrote the truth about Trump.
You are an idiot that can't tell the difference between physical harm an your little ego.
No, he just shows the same entitlement the Trumpist who send the seizure tweet felt. “You deserve a seizure for your post.” is basically a much shorter form of the same sentiment.
simple assault is not a federal crime even if we were to stipulate that it applies here.
What about an assault crossing state borders? Sending something harmful with the intent to injure via the USPS is a federal offense, is sending one with e.g. UPS also? If it is, can this also be applied to forms of telecommunication?
Except all the financial fraud done over the internet which is barely investigated. Organized crime is boring, but if a trivial incident makes the news then a prosecutor hits pause on his porn player and files charges.
Here's a tip: if you do something illegal, try to stay anonymous. Complaining the cops should try to catch those who do first when you are caught doesn't prove you're not a criminal, it proves you are a whiney dumb criminal.

Apple stockholders certainly will, but Apple app devs - and most fanbois with zero financial stake - won't.
So what does that tell us about the laughing Fandroids with zero financial stake? Like the OP?

You know, it's funny how all you guys can only think back to winter, and not even ahead to summer, let alone decades ahead.

It used to be a free software forum, and anti-Microsoft site. It has become a fake news outlet peddling the latest, fashionable left wing propaganda.
Let's say this is true - how has anything changed? Being free software and anti-Microsoft is hardly alt-right. Or science hating for that matter.

I doubt there were that many at Trump's inauguration.
And likely they used the same primitive phishing methods to get them. The End.
Apple sure do a good job of marketing it as a backup... http://www.apple.com/icloud/ https://support.apple.com/en-u...

Apparently it's a problem. Apple has an article on it on the front of their support page.
You don't even understand what "it" is.
IOW you do lose your car on a regular basis. Thanks for the confirmation.
H9w the hell do you "easily lose" a dock? Do you also lose your car all the time?

Thankfully we live in a civilized world where possibility of injury isn't relevant and only real injury is.
Yeah, exactly - that' why sending mail bombs is completely legal if nobody gets hurt.
No, but people are arrested or censored for saying things someone doesn't like. Just look up George Carlin's 7 words you can't say on television.

You're not that bright.
The concept you're missing is intent.
“You deserve a seizure for your post.” doesn't sound like intent to you?
