You know when you're on hold with a company's support line, and a reassuring voice tells you that "Your call is important to us", and you mutter under your breath "Yeah, right" because you know that they really don't care, but they have to make it look like they do?
Your call isn't important to the FCC, and they don't care if you know.
If the Wi-Fi Pinapple listens passively for clients trying to connect to their 'remembered' Wi-Fi hotspots, then why can't the cell phones also do that? Why do they need to shout "Hey, here are all the access points that I have connected to in the past"?

If you can condense all of the changes in your update into one line ("Bug fixes, performance improvements"), then you're doing it wrong.
Every update for the Sony PS4 has said the same thing: Performance improvements. After so many "performance improvements", then my PS4 should be flying like a bat out of hell, right?
We all know that what they are really doing is making changes so you can't exploit bugs so you can make the system boot your own OS, or something. What really bugs me is when they actually *DO* make changes to the UI or social features, THEY NEVER TELL YOU!
The recordings could be used to dub in sound effects in other movies or video games... Or maybe the directors of porn are looking for good dialogue ideas...

But apparently not so good at English.
Let me know when it's whacking day.
What happens when the spammers have a larger email budget than your friends?
...or maybe it was the fact that the Model M had an AT connector, and Dell was no longer using 286 desktops...
You wouldn't trust them as a friend, or you wouldn't trust them as an employee?
Don't make me quote Admiral Ackbar to you...
It doesn't matter much if Firefox 57 is faster than Chrome. What matters is that it is faster than Firefox 56.

Are there really that many movies released in the US over the course of a year? How many of those do you actually *WANT* to see?

I dread updating to Firefox 57, because it will break all of my plugins.
The energy spent *MINING* a bitcoin is not at all close to the energy spent *TRANSACTING* a bitcoin. Why is this even a metric?
