Good! It's what all non apple fanbois have been saying for ever! Apple is finally embracing standardisation and this is all you have to say about it?? No one gives a fuck about having them having new dongles, especially the apple people as their shiny new POS will undoubtedly get upgraded before long for some reason or another and have the new "standard" connector anyway! This is apple finally moving in the right direction and the article just bitches about "Oh no! More dongles" - Don't like it? Don't buy Apple! FYI I hate all things apple bit this is a good move on their part. Finally! Still bring back the headphone jack though!
"The fact beats are popular shows people don't give a shit about audio quality."
This. Although thinking about it, I know a LOT of people who ask me if beats are any good (I test products for a living) and I laugh everytime! I think it may be worse in that people who can afford it think they know that it "must be good as it costs a lot". In my experience any decent headphones worth having will ALWAYS have a wired option. Sennheiser, Bowers &Wilkins, Sony & even the Bose QC35 all have wired options as well as bluetooth across most models (although Bose seem to break almost as often as beats).
What actually is classified as a "weak" password these days? I don't mean to ask a silly question, but not being a mathematician or even working in this field, I just don't know. With lastpass compromised what is a good password 'rule' in 2016?
It would not surprise me in the slightest if this was just an attempt to make the masses believe we are more secure than we actually are. In the phone world at least, yes, Facebook have enabled e2e encryption by default and google push out regular security updates but, like a recent post spoke about, the updates are not filtering down to the end user instantly like they should be. Also, one minute I hear iOS is rock-solid and impenetrable, next it's been split apart worse than a bride on the wedding night, then it's secure again. Is this just yet another attempt at public manipulation? Or are they (3 letter acronyms) actually as fucked as 'The Clapper' implies?
I had been thinking about ditching Avast for the last few months (not for this reason) as it seemed to be changing into something I don't like the feel of but was reluctant(lazy).
Finally changed to Avira 2 weeks ago and have been glad I did. Very glad now!
I've seen the damage a truck did to the M25 just by having a blow out. It carved a 3 inch deep gash into +500m of tarmac. This thing wouldn't stand a chance!
Yes it obviously was! As I said above, thanks for clarifying that for me. It wasn't entirely clear to me in the summary. Perhaps I shall read a little more into it.

...Elon Musk has lost his fucking mind and is trying to replace it artificially.

No pain go gain?
Do I want to give my phone the equivalent of cancer? Why the fuck would anyone want this?
Ignore me, didn't read the rest properly. Duh!
"This, together with the fact that Samsung's phones are the hottest in the market" - I see what you did there

I'm sure I saw this on my news feed last week sometime as some meme. I miss /.

Gah! Fucking Unicode!! I'm really beginning to resent this place!! It used to be fun!
We don't use the Euro at all!! £12k is how we would write it.
...onwards and (hopefully) upwards....I mean, it's not like it could get much worse after today's post about Shkreli beefing Wu-Tang. (WTF???)
By your logic then all Mercedes & Maybach's being owned by Daimler AG are Renault-Nissan!

Don't forget to mention they also changed every single post from commentors as well. Can't say i've seen that before!
Sorry, DMCA. damn typo.
No need when HAD instantly back down and alter the content of the page.
Also, for it to be a DCMA, doesn't the requested takedown have to have something to do with DRM?
I had no idea these things are police radar evasive. Perhaps why the filth et al are really hating these things atm.

Ah! Thank you for clarifying that for me. Obviously I did read it a bit quicker than I should have.
