  5. For a second there, I was extremely worried. I read NASA instead of NSA.

    Carry on.

  6. It seems I needed to put a /sarcasm at the end of my comment after all.

  7. What about my iPhone 4, Apple? No free battery replacement for me?

    What about my iPhone 3GS?

    getting these handsets to the cheapness of $30 opens a lot of windows

    What's the point of buying a $30 smartphone if the browser doesn't have a pop-up blocker?

    That's amazing! You wouldn't happen to have a list of stores which sell those so-called "websites" by any chance?

  10. Funny, I'm 65 and I've never seen any volume knob labelled in quarts.

    His opinion is clearly stated at the end of his post:

    my remaining Bitcoin is still worth more than it was a year ago.

    If he thought it was all going to crash down he would have sold all of it.

    It's like people in 1990 who saw AOL and just shrug "Internet is a fad and will die soon".

    What if it's a conglomerate of private networked computers but you can never be 100% you can trust any of them? Someone can hack a database by accessing one computer. Much harder to hack the blockchain since you'd need to hack 51% of the computers almost all at the same time.

    I don't want OLED. The quality degrades over time and not equally on each colour.

    Dead pixels that don't light up? You'd need a nearly completely 100% white display to notice them.

    Defective pixels stuck to "on"? Extremely annoying.
