They're not, of course, and they're annoyingly small.
Heh, all jokes aside, I'd much prefer to carry a really small case with 20 or 30 Micro SD cards than a larger case with 10 USB drives.
As for price, a 32G Micro SD card is about the same cost as a 32G USB stick on Amazon (around $10). The same goes for many of the 64G Micro SD cards (around $20).
USB drives are easier to insert or remove, I'll certainly agree with that.
There is no such thing as "HIPAA Certification" either, so it is easy to spot you are talking out of your ass.
There is indeed such a thing as "HIPAA Certification", but not as such for cloud services. Just google "HIPAA Certification" and you'll see various companies who provide HIPAA Certification courses. Any organization or person who works in or with the healthcare industry or who has access to protected health information has to be HIPAA compliant.
But you're correct in that there are no “HIPAA-certified” CSPs. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the entity responsible for HIPAA, does not require or formally recognize any HIPAA certification programs for CSPs.
MS and Amazon, however, are looking to change that and get a "HIPAA Certified" tag they can slap on their cloud services so they can tout them as such.
I've heard that this is also aimed at companies that have HIPAA compliance requirements and therefore can't legally offload their stuff to the cloud.
Basically it lets Amazon and Microsoft get a foot in the door until they can pay lobbyists enough to get the HIPAA regulations watered down to allow cloud-based storage of medical and treatment data.
You'll see a "HIPAA Certified" cloud service eventually, which of course means nothing in real life (like the "Organic" label on foods), but will allow companies to legally store HIPAA-restricted stuff "in the cloud". It'll be as insecure as anything else but it'll give them the ability to legally store HIPAA data there.
Stuff from years ago, yet she is married to someone who is NOT her father, and has 3 kids from her husband. Oh, and she's converted to another religion altogether. Sure sounds like a father who's obsessed about his daughter
No, it sounds like you're talking about her, not about him and the weird, pervy comments he's made about her.
Seriously, what father says "If she wasn't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her"?? Who says that kind of thing?
Has any father you've ever known said that, and what would your reaction be if you heard it from him?
Face it, that shit is creepy, and no amount of hand-waving or deflection is going to change that.
----------- In 2013, Wendy Williams, host of The Wendy Williams Show, introduced a question-and-answer game called 'Fave Five', a regular feature on the show when Trump appeared with his daughter.
She asked: 'Ivanka, what's the favorite thing you have in common with your father?', who replied with: 'Either real estate or golf.'
When Williams put the same question to Trump, he answered: 'Well, I was going to say sex, but I can't relate that to her', pointing to Ivanka.
-----------
On March 6, 2006, Trump said, speaking about his daughter. “. ..she does have a very nice figure. I’ve said that if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps, I would be dating her.”
-----------
No, he's not obsessed at all with his daughter. He just wants to fuck her. Seriously, who the hell says shit like this??
Also, who says, "I know more than the Generals, believe me"? Even the Joint Chiefs Of Staff don't say that. Obama doesn't say that. Colin Powell never said that. Eisenhower and LBJ never said that. But Trump, a failed casino owner somehow "knows more than the Generals"?
On the other hand, you might accidentally manage and that runs the risk of sullying your opinion with facts.
You and facts don't seem to be good friends, or even passing acquaintances. As I've said before, some people are hard of hearing, but you're hard of thinking.
. . . and so on. This is a game of Whack-A-Mole he can never, ever win.
Another unrelated but somewhat interesting fact:
The Clinton website carries campaign material in 11 Asian languages: Cambodian, Chinese, Gujarati, Hindi, Korean, Tagalog, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Urdu and Vietnamese.
Trump's website is English only, period. If ya don't speak American, they don't want you.
"Several space industry experts that advise NASA have told the US space agency there are safety risks in a proposal by Elon Musk's SpaceX to fuel its rockets while astronauts are on board."
" -- 350 degrees Centigrade, considered relatively low temperature for this procedure -- in a process known as annealing."
I think the "--" is apparently a stand-n for an em-dash here, plus they mention annealing (something that's a high-temperature process), so they're talking about 350 Centigrade as far as I can tell.
As you said, I wouldn't call 350c any form of low temperature.
Enjoy your fat, heavy, low battery life, shitty screen, cheap looking System76 then. Personally, I'll take the MBP, (with a much higher resale value) over that pos any day of the week.
Enjoy your delusion that I own an Apple laptop.
I switched my Windows laptop over to Linux Mint months ago and never looked back.
And not to put too fine a point on it, but you seem very tightly wound over this. Are you perhaps having buyer's remorse and lashing out in order to make yourself feel better? Because I've never seen such a dick-headed, partisan response to someone simply saying that the new shiny from Apple doesn't appeal to them.
None of the extra stuff you mentioned is enough to make me go 'wow I want to pay for that'.
Bingo.
Yeah, some of the stuff is interesting, but not interesting enough to make me buy it.
I've never found fan noise to be a big deal, and as long as a case is durable I don't care if it's metal or plastic. The touch bar thingy is okay but not a killer "must have" feature for me.
you don't know what "duh" means.
Trump supporter confirmed.
So you are a Trump supporter. It figures.
Who. Use "who" when referring to people, use "that" when referring to things.
From one enthusiast of the proper use of the English language to another, thank you.
"And don't bother looking for BlackBerry and Microsoft Windows phones in the mix."
Lol, there's a Windows phone?? I'm pretty sure that's just an urban myth.
Oh huh you're back to that.
Are you denying you're a Trump supporter now?
They're not, of course, and they're annoyingly small.

Well, Phil Schiller is wrong.

You should probably see someone about it.
Thanks, but I don't usually take advice from Trump voters.
Stuff from years ago, yet she is married to someone who is NOT her father, and has 3 kids from her husband. Oh, and she's converted to another religion altogether. Sure sounds like a father who's obsessed about his daughter

Tell us why Hillary's brand of integrity would be better for the country.
Hillary is a crook, a liar, and she's as corrupt as they come. I can't stand her.
But she's not insane or delusional, as Trump clearly is.
On the other hand, Trump says he "knows more than the Generals", so if you believe that you should vote for him.
You may of course interpret it differently.
No, I think you got it spot-on.
In Trump's world, women exist to be banged by him, and that's the only measure of their value he recognizes.
He's not obsessed with his daughter

Nice try but we both know you have trouble with clicking links.
Clicking on any link you post is likely a waste of time, or worse.
"Several space industry experts that advise NASA have told the US space agency there are safety risks in a proposal by Elon Musk's SpaceX to fuel its rockets while astronauts are on board."
This has "bad ending" written all over it.
I found this book about it:
http://amzn.to/2ewSOY4
Is that relevant?
Is it relevant? I don't know, I didn't click the link. Just provide me with a synopsis I can ignore.
I did a double-take on this as well.

"UK Government Vows To Sink $2.3 Billion Into New Cybersecurity Plan"
Yes, and "sink" is probably the exact word that should be used to describe where the money will go.
Apparently, "flush" doesn't sound as good in a headline.
Possibly. Who is this "Trump" fellow?
Perhaps you could Google his name and see if there are any results, then get someone to read them to you.

He's a man with a dead ginger cat on his head. To be honest, I'm not entirely sure it's dead.
Never heard of him. Is he related to Trump?
