back when we had half a dozen broadcast stations most of the time the movies sucked. i never liked the western much but watched them along with the WW2 and others because sometimes there was nothing to do and you sat on the couch and stared at the box in front of you
third parties already sell legit apple compliant cables that are better than original apple cables and cheaper. you can buy them in best buy for less than in the apple store
the original iphone had less features than some of the early 2001 era PDA's. Just the ones it did have were better and as they added features those were better as well.
problem with smartwatches is that you're paying $400 for something that tells you the time like my phone already does.
or saves me one whole second in not having to look at my phone if i'm one of those people who absolutely has to look at every text and email the second it comes in. most people are not idiots like this, so that's that.
or it's only useful for idiots who absolutely must know their pulse or blood pressure 24x7 and have a chart of it going back the last year to share on social media. i try to run at least once a week and i could care less what my pulse is when i run and after. and i'm already taking my phone with me when i run so no point in a GPS watch or tracker
in the 70's and 80's when your national and world news was a half hour program twice a day we got the sound bite. the network would film a speech or an interview and use 30 seconds or less to make a point in their newscast.
CNN gave more time to the speeches but in their quest to keep on talking they added the commentary. since there isn't enough news every day most of the news on the news channels is now commentary. even the reporting has a lot of commentary on it and the journalists have always been guilty of not reporting some things, etc
the only thing the internet did was bring us back to the media choice of the early 1900's before the great consolidation of newspapers began and gave us a few major conglomerates. only thing HuffPost, Mother Jones, Breitbart and others do is give people a choice before most of the niche papers were run out of business by the Times, Posts and USA Today
it already does that. netflix doesn't use a steady connection. it bursts a few minutes of data at a time to a local cache. problem is that unlike regular TV everyone is watching different parts of the show at different times so it's always bursting different data to everyone
no, they will probably say we'll stop retaining call history at all and have the FBI and other agencies run to congress to keep their tax benefits going
no, but a few years ago the same climate scientists were saying the USA would be seeing record numbers of tornadoes and super F5 tornadoes every year due to climate change. just like they were saying we would be seeing record numbers of Cat 5 hurricanes after Katrina
apple tried the blackberry deal where the carriers kicked money back to blackberry depending on which data plan you chose. like if you wanted to connect to a corporate BES server for push it would be the most expensive one
with the amount of people arrested or fired, i can't see how he didn't know about the coup and simply let it happen to grab power. there is no way you can keep a secret like this with so many people involved
i've heard they use an algorithm that gives more bandwidth to shows that more people are watching. which is why sports looks awesome and your average STARZ or some other rerun movie looks like a used VHS tape
yeah, most of those guys went out of business because they never made any money. a few like RCN are still around on perpetual life support
and the way it worked was you needed a POTS line and service for the $20 DSL and they would rip you a new a$$hole with the POTS prices and charging you per minute on calls
the cable companies were doing $30 internet for a little while because a lot of people were buying their VOIP as well, but once AT&T and Verizon went unlimited cell minutes that was the end of that.

it will work as well as reddit

now they get their design patents as well

NYC trains too. why pay more money to AT&T or Verizon when you can just buy more storage and play from your device with no issues
the SE is just a little bigger than the 4S and is basically an iphone 6S with no force touch and a smaller screen
it's a cheap no margin phone from a chinese manufacturer. what did you expect?
no, they will probably say we'll stop retaining call history at all and have the FBI and other agencies run to congress to keep their tax benefits going
yeah, when i was at Vicenza, Italy in the US Army around this time we did the same thing. only we did it on purpose to try to crash the email system
this is why i simply ignore these emails
a lot simpler than getting outraged and emailing everyone to be taken off

so far the opposite has happened
most of the android phone makers operate at a loss or bare break even. apple takes home most of the money in the cell phone market
apple tried the blackberry deal where the carriers kicked money back to blackberry depending on which data plan you chose. like if you wanted to connect to a corporate BES server for push it would be the most expensive one
more like google wants to be the only advertiser to you and not say your ISP or wireless carrier knowing which ads to push to your phone
it's always about the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ and not some bullshit about making the world a better place
most smartphone manufacturers barely break even or operate at a loss. add the losses to apple's share of the profits and you get over 100%
until a little while ago only apple and samsung took home something like 95% or 99% of all profits. samsung's loss pushes apple over 100% in profits
all those cheap android phones sold all over the world that make up for 85% of all phones sold don't really make any money
and Tier Z internet celebrities
social media is like TV but lower cost of entry and lots of people on there someone might follow but most won't care about
with the amount of people arrested or fired, i can't see how he didn't know about the coup and simply let it happen to grab power. there is no way you can keep a secret like this with so many people involved
allah isn't a being, its a rock that fell from space
same in the USA, except here it's called ASCAP
i've heard they use an algorithm that gives more bandwidth to shows that more people are watching. which is why sports looks awesome and your average STARZ or some other rerun movie looks like a used VHS tape
they are only being sued cause they are trying to get around established rules on how to run their wires
