[...] the new panel [...] withstood UL's military-standards tests of 26 successive drops from a height of 1.2 meters[and] continued to function normally with no damage to its front, sides, or edges.
Let's see how well it survives such drops once it's attached to a non-flexible and heavier phone.

The resulting storage density is an unparalleled 1.2 petabits per square inch [...] The inconceivably small dimensions (a hydrogen atom is only half a nanometer in diameter) allow for an astounding data storage density of 1.1 petabits (138 terabytes) per square inch.
So, is it 1.1 or 1.2 petabits per square inch?
This development, says Achal, could allow you to store the entire iTunes library of 45 million songs on the surface of a US quarter-dollar coin.
Not sure which one is more mind-boggling... that there's 45 million songs on iTunes, or that they can store them all on something the size of a quarter.
Achal and his team demoed the technology by creating a 192-bit cell, which they used to store a simple rendition of the Super Mario Bros video game theme song.
Call me naive, but how do you store the Super Mario Bros theme song in 192 bits? I guess you could make a 1-voice version and store the note and the duration in a few bits per note, giving you room for a few notes, but how "simple" is this rendition?
It's still probably the best low-cost "brand-name" tablet out there for Netflix. The Fire HD 7" specifications are at least twice as better than the crap available around here at twice that price.
But there has to be lower limits to both weight and especially thinness. When you need to design new keyboard keys that are worst than the previous generation to save half a millimetre on the thickness of the laptop, you're actually going backwards.
I tried for hours to order the Amazon Fire 7" (8GB) for the low price of CAD$40, but the page kept changing. Sometimes it would be available, sometimes it would be disabled and only the 16GB was available, sometimes the 8GB option completely disappeared as if it didn't even exist, other times it was available from a third-party non-Amazon seller for nearly twice the price.
It kept doing that every single time the page loaded and I was reloading it roughly once per second.
What's also weird is that once every few minutes, when it was finally available again, the estimated delivery kept going up by about two weeks. In the end I was able to order it (8GB), but I'm guessing it's not even manufactured yet since my delivery date is mid-september.

Tell me, Mr. Anderson... what good is a right to repair... if your devices are glued shut?
Surely you mean "Its base clock speed is 3.6GHz" and not "It is base clock speed is 3.6GHz".
Haw-haw!

You haven't met my ex-wife. As solid as ice yet as volatile as TNT.

Beware the MiSaHyCoin.
Maybe Apple will finally stop selling computers with only 4GB or 8GB RAM.
After seeing all the trouble the T2 caused to John Connor, it doesn't surprise me.
And since they just launched their security key to the public, how is that information helpful in any way?
Your MacBook Pro has four USB-C ports.
A MacBook only has one USB-C port.
Keyboard not found. Press F1 to continue.
Why? They could have made USB-C versions.
"Announcing the new Google T... - this project is now discontinued."
I don't think all Mac users are running the latest versions of the operating systems on all their devices.
Well, good for Walmart then. I can't even imagine the number of sales Amazon lost over those glitches.

But if you were already planning on buying something, it was worth waiting for Prime Day to buy it.
