But there is a place for QoS. For instance, prioritizing VoIP makes it work, at the expense of web browsing being slightly slower.
I don't have an issue with paid prioritization, as long as it's bandwidth added to the promised service level, or perhaps no more than 10% in the case of "unlimited."
As bad as the Facetime bug is, I'd say the other is worse for Apple - it made them admit that they really don't listen to their customers. But don't expect that to really change.
Oh, bullshit. The microphone isn't a feature until it starts being used. It's not uncommon for devices to have components which the engineers think might be useful in the future, but never are.
For instance every (?) Broadcom based cellphone SoC supports FM radio functionality, but only those manufacturers who enable it list "FM radio" as a feature.
If they'd listed a microphone, people have started complaining that they couldn't use it.
Woohoo!, A full wolf blood red/blue moon made of green cheese (RGB!), never been seen before, never to be seen again, eclipse!!!1!1!11!!.
Seriously, this is a total lunar eclipse, which is cool, but not particularly unique. Unless you're 90 years old, you'll have a chance to see another.
But all the naming hype which seems to have started in the last few years is complete and utter bullshit. Just wait until Google China starts advertising by beaming LASERs on the surface to advertise Coca-Cola.
I know what most of them mean - but seriously, if you're going to post something, _especially_ an article/summary, define each acronym as it's used (except perhaps in the headline). It's just common sense, and a basic journalistic principal.
You left out the greatest advantage - more battery cycles because of lack of readily available charging means shorter battery lifetime. Non-user replaceable batteries was just the beginning, this is one more improvement on planned obsolescence. Damn you, consumers who refuse to buy a new $1000 phone every two years.
"you can adjust the delay in 1 ms increments if there's a problem."
So, half wave @ 500 Hz. That must be great for the soundstage. I call bullshit for you even being able to tell the difference between FLAC/WAV and 128K MP3, let alone Bluetooth.
How is pushing a Dash button different than electing a politican? You make your selection, expecting one thing, but you might get something different, but close. Maybe the German courts should outlaw politicians, too.

Don't call yourself a company concerned with privacy if you can't secure your products on your own, and won't pay others for their efforts.

ITYM "Oompa Loompas", or maybe it's "Munchkins." Or perhaps Danny DeVito is just doing a side job.
GEICO Gecko, FTW!
Obligatory.
So, English isn't your native language, so you think that "listening to you" isn't "being used." Thanks, you fucking logic impaired idiot.
LoL.

"according to the official tech specs, there's no onboard microphone"
The tech specs not listing a microphone is very different than the tech specs saying "there is no onboard microphone," as claimed.
"...JPMorgan analysts led by Natasha Kaneva said in a wide-ranging Jan. 24 report about cryptocurrencies spearheaded by Joyce Chang..."
I'm curious. What's the pecking order between leading and spearheading?

I think it's great that a one-name rapper/celebrity is involved in research.
Just another reason to get rid of daylight "saving" time. (and, no, that doesn't mean go on it year 'round)
Millennials. They not only won't they understand your reference, but think run-on sentences (and their equivalent of "leet speek") are proper.
I never thought I'd say it, but the world now needs more English majors (legitimate, competent ones).
(And all that, coming from an engineering major).

"A magnetic field, what exactly is it?"
It's something you can buy a lot of from China for a couple of bucks.
Well, yeah. "Bioacoustic Devices Could Help Save Rainforests", according to bioacoustic device salesmen.
Unique thought - just leave the rainforests the F alone.
It looks like English, but isn't. Try posting when undrunk.

No. Having an expensive charging pad, which you would be unlikely to carry around, is what would encourage the once-a-day charging behavior.
OTOH, there are USB ports and cables (which are also easier to carry) almost everywhere.

Really, BeauHD, are you really so lazy and clueless that you can't fix the punctuation so it can be displayed here?

A camera should withstand being pointed at the sun. If something puts out more power and damages a camera, shame (and liability) on them.
Broadcasting light interference is no different than broadcasting radio interference (in terms of responsibility, not physics).
