How are people just blindly accepting these vaccine passports? How is it that so few even question something that is so obviously absurd? The fact that they don't accommodate for natural immunity, which is *superior* to the vaccine 'immunity,' should be a clear indication that we're being manipulated. Not to mention the fact that they make no sense, since people 'vaccinated' with these gene modifying agents can still catch and spread covid. It's shocking how many people are accepting these 'passports' as somehow justifiable.

Just like Jamal Kashoggi had nothing to be afraid of? 

Bullshit 

The Washington Post had a story a couple of days ago about a daughter of Dubai's ruthless ruler, who was desperately trying to get away from her dad. Left behind her phone and everything, but apparently some of her contacts also got surveilled via NSO and she was hauled kicking and screaming from her escape boat. Her elder sister had disappeared years earlier after being captured during an escape attempt. They sure must have been dangerous criminals.

Sounds like Gassee is still bitter that Apple didn't want to pay him $275 million for BeOS and opted to give Steve much more for NeXT instead..

The more fit you are the lower your heart rate. I don't remember the numbers but I believe extremely fit people could go under 60.

60 isn't even "extremely" fit. It's moderately fit. Professional athletes can dip below 50.

As noted by Windows Central, the system responds with "I found the song: Song unrecognized, on this service is retired, by music continues."

That sounds like a typically informative Windows error message.

Never should have been a high-speed chase. First, everybody knows they're dangerous, which is why they're against department policy in many cities. And second, it's being tracked. That's the whole point of the story. They could have kept a discreet distance until it parked. The Airtag battery would have lasted and they couldn't have lost track of the car. Better yet, you never know what kind of goodies those thieves might have led them to if you had just followed them. Maybe a chop shop. There was no need to catch them immediately.

What I've noticed on other sites is that when Apple does something first, people generally whine that they're stupid and taking away options. When another company does it first, then it's genuine innovation and Apple is too slow and behind the times.

When did the terms "charger" and "cable" become interchangeable? To me, the charger was always the part that plugged into the wall and provided a USB jack.

"Apple and other major chip firms may want a piece of the action."

You just wait three or four years until the M5 processor comes out. That'll be terrifying. It'll lock you out and call you "nonessential personnel." Although it would be a lot more fun if Apple updates Siri then with a male voice that has clipped, staccato diction.

Why would anyone want to do business in Russia today? Leave them twisting in the wind and they can use their glorious AYYA T1 phone.
