so the solution is to use the one USB port to connect a hub, then you connect your audio dongle and your ethernet dongle, then use your displayport dongle to connect to the projector, which is of course HDMI.
So majestic, a ball of wires connected to a unibody! Of course your battery will last all day! So no need to plug it in! such convenience.
You forgot your apple watch to play pokemans, and your apple pencil to do all your writing or drawing or whatever the fuck people think they are doing with a $99 stylus.
Their official policy is that you have to pay them for TV no matter what. Either you subscribe to TV, or your internet connection is capped, and you will pay them for TV anyway in the form of overages.
Seemed like a pretty good plan "Lets punish consumers and make them pay for our ill-conceived acquisition of Direct TV"
Whitewater was in 1992... I am 36 years old. That means for 2/3 of my life Hilary Clinton has been continuously investigated, and accused in the media and courts and been called a criminal by default. Since then she has had tons of scandals and accusations of being a criminal, none have ever stuck.
This means one of two things:
She is either a criminal mastermind with the power, influence, and pull to continuously break the law and get away with it. Using a vast network of co-conspirators, who have tight lips and similar criminal mastermind status to ALWAYS somehow escape the investigations of an entire country of inept law enforcement, Democrat lead congress, Republican lead congress, Democrat presidents, Republican presidents, and all news media outlets.
She is a super villain. Greater than any ever seen. She is bullet proof and immune to attacks from foe and friend alike. She is an amazing character straight out of fiction. If this is true, she doesn't need to become president, she is already the most powerful person in the world.
OR
The go-to political attack method on Hilary Clinton is to assume she is a criminal.
My wife has an iPhone, and she goes through about 1 cable per month, apple brand, "premium" 3rd party, or cheapie cables, it doesn't matter, they all break quickly.
I have had the same $3 USB Micro B cable for my last 3 phones... About 6 years

He generally hangs out with some pretty famous geeky icons... did the name dropping in the summary not get your attention? People attending his cruise this year: "Aimee Mann, Wil Wheaton, and Redshirts author John Scalzi"
I live in Texas, and it is kind of shocking that here, of all places they passed a law preventing municipalities and HOAs from making laws or rules against installing rooftop solar. So basically that takes care of 10% of the landmass of the lower 48 states as far as your first 2 concerns.
It's simple, since everyone is moving to cloud, nobody is buying hardware, except maybe amazon and azure... but eventually amazon and azure will move to cloud and they won't need hardware either! Cloud is magic! Cloud is life!
I think everybody? I don't know where you live, but it is rare to see someone with a 6 inch screen plastered against their face around here. Nearly everybody uses a hands-free of some kind, wired seem more common than bluetooth because they work better.
The only reason I am off AT&T and on Time Warner is because AT&T capped their services as leverage to try to force you to subscribe to Direct TV or Uverse TV. (unlimited internet access if you subscribe to TV).
I didn't want to pay 30 dollars a month for an extra service that I won't use, so ironically I had to call up the TV provider, and subscribe to their internet only plan, for cheaper than AT&T.
They tried forcing their customers to pay for their dumb mistake of acquiring Direct TV, and it didn't work.
Working as a developer in Dallas, TX... Every team I have ever been on has contained at least one bass-ackward programmer who "used to work at southwest" and liked to poison our source control with garbage. "The Southwest way!"
Every time I have been looking for a job, 3 or 4 recruitroaches would call me daily about 3 month contracts with Southwest!!! great place to work!!!!111!!!.
you know you only get the primo talent when you are only willing to budget for 3 months of work at a time.
I used to work with a guy who claims to have written part of their wildly complex "fare forecasting" software, you could probably imagine how shitty his code was to work with.
He's the kind of asshole who would do a bit shift in a SQL statement instead of multiplying by 2 because it was faster that way on 1950s hardware.
Every person who buys an iPhone with no headphone jack will end up paying an extra amount of money for some shitty dongle or even shittier iPhone Beats by Dr Drm.
Consumers will be the losers in a war with no win condition. As many people have mentioned, it will simply be ripped after the port instead of at the port. Meaning all of this industry re-tooling will do nothing against imaginary pirates, and plenty of measurable harm for poor sods who pay for the things they want to license.
I always found it odd when accessing network shares between users with the same name and password that it never prompted me for one.
It was a great workaround back before active directory. If you didn't have access to a share, just figure out the owner's username (pre-populated on their lock screen), and create a new local user on your machine with the same username, connect to the share as that user, done.
I don't work particularly hard to keep my card secure. I mean, I don't post photos of it on instagram or anything, but I don't need to go all cloak and dagger either.
I keep my credit card secure by not linking it to my bank account, and by checking it often for fraudulent charges.
If Sony or Target leak my credit card(both of which happened) I get a new one.
If someone gets a hold of it and charges 500 dollars at Walmart in Alabama (which happened, after a breech) then I tell the credit card company and they take care of it. And send me a new card at their expense.
Now if I fell into some kind of trick, like setting up auto-pay, so that it is actually my problem when someone else breeches my info, well that would just be silly,
Visa is a vast profit center built around making it easy to spend money. They are fully aware of how to make cards more secure, they don't want to, so neither do I.
Well, I was only really talking about original content. Their licensed selection is stellar for children, and just all right for grown-ups, but yeah you have probably seen everything worth watching already, Same with any streaming provider... or TV provider in general.
I subscribe to Hulu, HBONow, netflix, and amazon prime, and I can tell you that even with HBO's general "We only have real movies" policy (as opposed to amazon and netflix, which have tons of B movies) there is never anything to watch on HBO besides original, just like any other streaming service.
Netflix is the first media company with the business model of "Give the customers exactly what they want."
It is very refreshing. They are in the business of TV wish fulfillment, and nobody has ever done that before. Since the dawn of television, content owners and broadcasters have been in the business of telling customers what to watch. Netflix seems to make the shows that I want, exactly how I want them, it's so unusual that it almost feels like a trick.
I pay $144/year (because I have a big family and we pay a higher rate for more simultaneous streaming licenses), but it is a bargain. Just for the Marvel Series' alone I would have paid that much for DVDs.
Most areas in the US have 1-2 broadband providers. And in areas where people actually subscribe to Verizon FIOS, the only other option (if there is one) is a far slower connection. In my home town (before Frontier took over for verizon), your choices were: 2mbit DSL or 100mbit FIOS
No voting with your feet when the country is 40 times bigger than the UK, geographically speaking, and under-served in the broadband market.
Home computer is set up for games, which unless you are in denial means Windows and Steam.

no, I am pretty sure he means they are literally pouring molten iron into the internet.

Gee, I wonder why they are losing subscribers.
yet you were born into a country that collects taxes. Don't like it? There are plenty of hellholes you can move to that don't collect taxes.

CEO: We need to get everything into AWS as soon as possible!!!!
Literally every tech employee: That's going to be expensive as shit!
6 months later
CEO: We need to reduce our AWS spend as much as possible!!!

It takes 3 or 4 phone calls, and some "do not disclose" paperwork in order to find out that you won't save any money, and you won't own anything.

Since their charge cables are so shitty, each iPhone user will go through at least 10 cables per phone, so 1billion iPhones = 10billion+ chargers
