Don't you think it's at all possible that people spending all that money on a phone, may already have some nice headphones? It's not like bluetooth is a new thing all of a sudden.
That being said, removing the phono jack was unbelievably stupid if you aren't going to support at least AptX codec through Bluetooth. OS X supports it, why not iOS?
Do you think that they won't get filibustered until the cows come home if she doesn't pick people that are confirmable by the Senate that the voters send to Washington?
Consider the following though: by making the phone thinner, you can get a case that while making the phone bulkier, is still a manageable size to hold in a pocket.
Remember when everyone was walking around with the phone holster on their belt? You don't suppose that might have had something to do with the thickness of the phone, do you?
Personally, I'm glad that Apple didn't try to make the 7 any thinner than the 6. It's already a bit ridiculous, but going thinner would be insane.
Or buy a $30 widget that allows charging and phono output at the same time. Yes, you're having to buy an extra thing, which is lame. Yes, this is an arbitrarily manufactured issue. No, this isn't an insurmountable issue.
You missed the point of the post you replied to. That's all and well for you that you don't care about thinness - make your phone thicker with a battery case then. Phone manufacturers are designing their products for more than just you.
However, someone that *does* care about a thin phone cannot make the device thinner. And unless you're constantly wearing baggy pants or cargo shorts, the Z-axis also matters for what pocket you can fit a phone into.
Why are people so pissed off that a third party has completely resolved the biggest issue with the iPhone 7 in less than 3 weeks?
GOD DAMN IT I HATE IT WHEN PROBLEMS GET SOLVED EASILY. HOW DARE A COMPANY FILL AN EXISTING NEED!
It's just ridiculous. Don't like the iPhone? Don't buy one. Like the iPhone 7 except for not having a phono jack? This solves your single issue with the product.
And I'll tell you what I tell everyone that makes this logic error:
Just because some Republican shithead was a shithead, doesn't mean that a Democrat shithead gets to go unprosecuted when they clearly have broken the law. That kind of thinking allows these people to just continue being shitheads because "the other guys did bad things too."
Indict them all, and let them rot in jail. I can't believe that people are so willing to let someone slide because they happen to be from your chosen tribe. Wake up.
Exactly. There have been many examples where this system completely fails - a kid missing from San Diego, yet Amber alerts being broadcast in San Francisco, 500 miles north. Or an Amber alert for a kid in Cincinnati, OH that isn't broadcast into either Kentucky or Indiana, which are less than 20 minutes away from downtown Cincinnati if there is no traffic. Kentucky is just over one of the bridges from downtown FFS.
Or, reverse that and they do broadcast into Kentucky and Indiana - I'm sure people on the outskirts of Chicago really give a damn.
The funny thing is that the last time a flood warning came around on my phone, it was a full 5 minutes after two weather apps had sent me a push notification for it. How is a directed notification from an application service faster than a cell broadcast?
My favorite was when I was working in a large office shortly after this was pushed out in both Android and iOS, and the carriers turned it on - there was an Amber alert and you could hear that loud as fuck sound coming from hundreds of phones across the building and everyone wondering what in the hell was going on.
And why is that alert three times louder than any other sound the phone is capable of making? Are the just begging for people to get pissed and turn it off?
You claim that I'm biased, yet I tell you truthfully here that I would never *ever* vote for Trump, and I only *might* vote for Clinton if everything breaks her way over the next month, knowing that the US House of Representatives will put the brakes on anything outside the norm that these two might try to pull. And, I'm a swing state voter, so my vote actually counts - the electoral votes of Ohio aren't a foregone conclusion in anyone's column yet.
For me, the best case scenario at this point is that Clinton gets elected, and the Congress stays an opposition Congress which would force compromise. This, of course, also depends on getting congress critters that are interested in compromise, but as I said - it's a best case scenario. But, it would allow us a 'do over' on this election cycle in 2020 where maybe we could get a reasonable person to stand up and get nominated.
From the group of 30,000 e-mails returned to the State Department, 110 e-mails in 52 e-mail chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain classified information at the time they were sent or received. Eight of those chains contained information that was Top Secret at the time they were sent; 36 chains contained Secret information at the time; and eight contained Confidential information, which is the lowest level of classification. Separate from those, about 2,000 additional e-mails were “up-classified” to make them Confidential; the information in those had not been classified at the time the e-mails were sent.
Whoever, being entrusted with or having lawful possession or control of any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, note, or information, relating to the national defense, (1) through gross negligence permits the same to be removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of his trust, or to be lost, stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, or (2) having knowledge that the same has been illegally removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of its trust, or lost, or stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, and fails to make prompt report of such loss, theft, abstraction, or destruction to his superior officer— Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both.
So, to answer your question, 110 counts of violation of 18 USC 793 (f). Stop being an apologist.
It doesn't work with adults, unless they have absolutely no other alternative to accepting that their favorite candidate did wrong.
Logic flies out the window when it comes to politics. Just look at the two major party nominees - if logic were involved at all, these two would be writing another memoir right now.
So the choice is between someone that says mean things, and an unindicted felon who is above the law, and played fast and loose with Top Secret information.
Glad we've got our priorities straight on what to care about.
Intent only matters when determining severity of punishment, or severity of charges. See: manslaughter vs. murder vs. negligent homicide. In any case, someone still died.
Yeah, it's so overblown that the company is voluntarily recalling every single one.
Way to whitewash. Past model batteries and charging systems have jack shit to do with newly redesigned batteries and charging systems, except that they both have batteries and charging systems.

Don't you think it's at all possible that people spending all that money on a phone, may already have some nice headphones? It's not like bluetooth is a new thing all of a sudden.
Remember when everyone bitched about the original iPhone and iPhone 3G not doing Bluetooth A2DP stereo audio?
That being said, removing the phono jack was unbelievably stupid if you aren't going to support at least AptX codec through Bluetooth. OS X supports it, why not iOS?
How is that different from one of these?
Since when does real life include talking on the phone for 12+ hours straight? The times in the summary are *talk times*.
Bluetooth is proprietary now?
Do you think that they won't get filibustered until the cows come home if she doesn't pick people that are confirmable by the Senate that the voters send to Washington?
Unless we're talking about women's fashion, in which the front pockets may as well not exist.
Except for allowing you to use wired headphones at the same time as charging your phone, which is what everyone's bitch is.
Did you even look at the summary?
You realize this case is from a third party, right?

Emphasis mine.

"official whitehouse emails" are not classified.
But yeah, other than one actually being a crime, and the other not, you totally nailed it.
So the choice is between someone that says mean things, and an unindicted felon who is above the law, and played fast and loose with Top Secret information.

False.

It's actually rather impressive how long that thing keeps running after it's unplanned rapid disassembly.
I've had several garments ripped by the agitator in top-load washers.
Apparently there are new agitator-less top loaders now - probably the same kind of mechanism you find in front-load machines, turned 90 degrees.
Yeah, it's so overblown that the company is voluntarily recalling every single one.
