If a person believes what he is saying, no matter how wrong or dumb it may be, he's not lying. Using the word "lie" adds a connotation that does not serve the discussion.
More like a debit card. And if you don't have enough money in the account when an ACH transaction hits its treated like a bounced check, along with all the fun that entails.
Your only defense against a fraudulent transaction is to go your bank and fill out a signed declaration that it's an unauthorized transaction. The bank will then talk to the ACH clearing house which will in turn issue an "R1" to the client that initiated the transaction, giving them a chance to show proof. After all that you'll get your money back, and maybe your bounced check fee.
But that won't repair any collateral damage. If the transaction, for instance, started a cascade of bounced checks and bounced check fees, well good luck with that. It's easy for an account to suddenly "blow up". For people living paycheck to paycheck it's a dangerous and precarious position.
By the way, while a pain to do, disputing transactions is worth it. About the only way a client can lose ACH status is to have too many R1 transactions.
While not perfect, Apple Pay is the closest thing to that. Only you know what you bought, and only you and your CC company know how much it was. Nobody gets to handle (or even look at) your credit card, And your fingerprint secures your "wallet" (phone).
By indirect costs he means cost of sales. Costs that are specifically for the Surface. That's marketing, advertising, development, incentives, inventory, etc.
Having a positive gross margin is trivial. That just means you were able to sell for more than the cost of building it. Not exactly exciting news.
Speakign for myself, I would much rather carry around an iPhone 5s, but my eyes are getting worse with age, and now I can't use it without reading glasses. I can't speak for these whippersnappers, but I now welcome the larger screen, and I'm happy that there's a mode that makes what's displayed larger rather than more dense. It sucks getting old, but I suppose that's the goal.
if Apple really cared one little bit about their customers
Apple does some odd things, but I can't imagine anyone could watch the Charlie Rose interview of Tim Cook and come away with the impression that he and Apple don't care about their customers. To hold that position you'd have to believe he was a pathological liar and just plain evil.
That's a good point. It was in effect being too specific under those "guidelines." So perhaps they were told to remove it, or maybe even some agency issued a throwaway request simply to make it untrue, and thus remove it that way.
I for one am happy that Apple's new strategy to fight this is to continue to minimize the amount of personal information they receive.
I don't think he said that. It wouldn't make any sense, given how email works. With their own Messges platform the encryption is already done on the device before Apple transports the message. With email that is obviously not the case.
Incoming email is normally unencrypted, so there's no way Apple could then encrypt it in a way they couldn't read. And they can't as a matter of course encrypt outgoing email because the receiver wouldn't necessarily be able to decrypt it. So email remains, as it always has been, not a good place at all to hide secrets.
It really runs contrary to Apple's design sensibility, but I guess we're seeing the first evidence of what happens to Apple without Jobs.
The iPod Touch, created under Jobs' reign, has a protruding lens. Can we stop with the "what would Jobs do" BS? He
s dead, it's a different world, and it's a different marketplace.
Make the phone the thickness of the camera module, adding another 300 mAH to the internal battery and pushing run time another 3 hours,
That adds weight, too. The battery, according lasts well over a day, so not typically an issue, but the weight would always be there.
I have no problem with the protruding lens (It's not their first, the iPod Touch has one), but I think it's shitty that they edit it out of the side-on views.
I'd like to see an airline offer planes without reclining seats. Actually now that I type that out no I wouldn't, because then they'd realize they could squeeze 'em in even tighter.

I see what you did there by not making that link instantly clickable.
Well obviously she graded on a curve. Thank you ladies and germs, I'll be here all week.
A lie requires intentional deceit, not merely wrongness.
If a person believes what he is saying, no matter how wrong or dumb it may be, he's not lying. Using the word "lie" adds a connotation that does not serve the discussion.
How about if I just feel safer? Is that OK?
I don't think that would be comparable to this situation.
So you think the Chinese started their hacking plans while the US was involved in the war of 1812?
The idiotic title is a good indication of his general level of insight.

At least that's what conventional wisdom would tell you. But now I'm not so sure.
She sure packs a lot into that tutu. She should be the one smuggling iPhones.

Don't rag on people for getting old. That kinda is the goal, isn't it?

Speaking of accuracy, it went from 62% to 70%. While indeed that is eight percentage points, it's a nearly 13% improvement.

It doesn't even make any sense. You don't "get" someone's mod points when they mod you up.
