    You made that POS Zuckerberg a billionaire.... shame on you.

  2. Let me tell you on Why You Can't Manufacture Like Apple · · Score: 1

    Those white plastic laptops of Apples got quite a few calls into their support center.
    #1: yellowing and cracking of plastic.
    #2: Hard drive failure
    #3: Battery failure

    I think with the 3 items combined, the failure rate must have been in the high %30 mark.

    Anyone that owned one shoudl be able to verify that.

  3. "20 m holes in aluminum?" on Why You Can't Manufacture Like Apple · · Score: 1

    Wow that must have been a HUGE laptop to have a 20 meter hole drilled in it.

    Just another "innovation" from Apple...

  4. Oh one other thing on Why the iPhone 6 Has the Same Base Memory As the iPhone 5 · · Score: 1

    Why do we still call it a phone? It's a biometric tracking device with GPS, audio and video capabilities.

    SD card for storage up to 128 GB, 4K video, etc.

    When you buy an iPhone 6 you're reaching backwards.

  6. Because... on Why a Chinese Company Is the Biggest IPO Ever In the US · · Score: 1

    America is where you go to sell stocks, easiest place to to part people from their money.

  9. Apple and Google (Android) are blowing smoke.

  10. Re:Maybe it's about battery life on Apple Locks iPhone 6/6+ NFC To Apple Pay Only · · Score: 1

    Yep pretty you will need an additional battery to use it, and maybe an external keyboard... and hell why not an even bigger screen... and hey did you hear laptops are making a come back....

    But you don't know and Apple has a terrible track record.

  15. Bullshit on Comcast Allegedly Asking Customers to Stop Using Tor · · Score: 1

    There's a difference between using the TOR browser and running a relay.

    Aside from that Comcast is the enemy, look at who owns it.

  16. more likely a cost issue on Sapphire Glass Didn't Pass iPhone Drop Test According to Reports · · Score: 1

    Apple has to start making all their stuff super cheap now, (keep them shareholders happy) weld the RAM jn their macbooks, back to plastic cases because they can't have NF without, and maybe start to pay attention to security.
    A parade of failures.

  17. Nope on School Installs Biometric Fingerprint System For Cafeteria · · Score: 1

    Gather all biometrics and do it from children so they grow up used to it, and sell it to the parents as "convinience and safety" .

    The oppression continues.

  18. It's nothing new on High School Student Builds Gun That Unlocks With Your Fingerprint · · Score: 1

    It is unreliable, only a fool would carry a weapon that has these sorts of "safety" features attached.
    When it comes to defending yourself the simpler the better, if you can't control the situation or your weapon don't carry one to start with.

    This article is filler.
