Sorry, man. You're off by 2 years.
The App Store opened on July 10, 2008, just 1 year after the first iPhone came out in July of 2007. On opening, the App Store had more than 500 applications available.
EDIT: Damnit, I proofread that twice before submitting, and now noticed several typos: Where I wrote x, I meant to write either ch or cl, as appropriate.
is unnecessarily confusing, unnecessarily complex, and unnecessarily machine-dependent.
It would be more portable, much easier to understand, and require one fewer operation, while still being branchless, if it were written like this instead:
And if hardware multiplication is slow on your CPU, you can do the following instead, which is also perfectly portable in C and does not rely on any undefined behavior (although it's back to requiring the extra operation):
480p is fine for mobiles.
Only if you have a >10inch screen would HD make sense to even want.
Speak for yourself!
There is a world of difference between 480p and 720p on an iPhone 6/8 Plus or iPhone X. And you can even tell the difference between 720p and 1080p with most content. The difference between 900p and 1080p is hard to notice, but do not say that it requires a 10" screen to want actual HD content. You must have crummy vision?

I yank mine constantly.
Don't we all. It just feels so good.
EDIT: Damnit, I proofread that twice before submitting, and now noticed several typos: Where I wrote x, I meant to write either ch or cl, as appropriate.
Neat trick. But I have to point out that your code:
*wPos++ = 87 - ( ((cl - 10) >> 7) & 39 ) + ch;
*wPos++ = 87 - ( ((cl - 10) >> 7) & 39 ) + cl;
is unnecessarily confusing, unnecessarily complex, and unnecessarily machine-dependent.
It would be more portable, much easier to understand, and require one fewer operation, while still being branchless, if it were written like this instead:
*wPos++ = ch + '0' + ((x >= 10) * ('a' - '9' - 1));
*wPos++ = cl + '0' + ((x >= 10) * ('a' - '9' - 1));
And if hardware multiplication is slow on your CPU, you can do the following instead, which is also perfectly portable in C and does not rely on any undefined behavior (although it's back to requiring the extra operation):
*wPos++ = ch + '0' + (-(x >= 10) & ('a' - '9' - 1));
*wPos++ = cl + '0' + (-(x >= 10) & ('a' - '9' - 1));
Note that the expression 'a' - '9' - 1 becomes the compile-time integer constant 39.

Oh, the irony there. That comma should be either a semicolon, a colon, or a period. The comma is grammatically incorrect there.
Hey! I'm a tool, you insensitive clod!

It's self-hoisting but it's not in any way portable because of it.
FTFY (you forgot the "i" in "hosting").
I think you mean self-hoisting, bub. Not self-hosting.

FTFY.
CR (ASCII 13) has not been the Mac line ending character since the 20th century. It's been LF (ASCII 10, same as UNIX) for almost 20 years now.

Who are these people who are trying to stream 720p or 1080p video on their 5" phone screen?
People with decent visual acuity.
480p is fine for mobiles. Only if you have a >10inch screen would HD make sense to even want.

It's a purposeful misunderstanding of how statistics work and only used to squeeze working people harder every day.
FTFY.
There is more to this story that what is in TFA.
Hmm, I don't remember any of this in The Force Awakens.
I haven't used FB in years, but when I used it, I found it extremely annoying with how it would try to be smart about how to order my timeline,
Oh it still does that.

What would I want to party on a dude as though it were 1979?
Depends on the sub. The ones I hang out in are civil and welcoming of differing opinions.
