John McAfee offers to decrypt iPhone used by San Bernardino terrorists, criticizes FBI
This offer is calling their bluff. If they decline the offer, their claim that they only want to decrypt one phone will be confirmed to be a lie (as if anyone believed them anyway).mobius said:The FBI will not accept his gracious offer because that is not part of 'their plan'. They want a precedent to be set so that they can gain access to encrypted data whenever they want.

I hope Al wrote a letter to Equifax also.

Tesla is using a hybrid switched reluctance motor in its Model 3, as contrasted with their induction motors in their Model S and X.gatorguy said:
What would a "Switched Reluctance"replacement for AC induction motors have to do with automotive? That's the business Software Motors is in, nothing at all related to automotive use.MacPro said:
Or perhaps he knows a lot about Apple's project Titan. Could it be he is essentially still working for / with Apple and this new company?jonagold said:Damn, poor guy worked himself out of a job. Thanks for helping save our planet.

Disgruntled HomePod owners say firmware update alters sound quality
I think the story is that if equalization were adjustable, people who don't like the default EQ could modify it to their satisfaction.analogjack said:If someone says it's better, someone else says it's worse and a third person says there's no change, doesn't that mean all three cancel out and there's no story?

AAPL hits new closing high of $227.63, capping historic August for the company
AMZN just surpassed TSLA to become the most shorted stock. Those short sellers are not passive about their bets. You can expect to see lots of FUD propaganda about AMZN on an ongoing basis. This might put a damper on the price rise of AMZN.gmgravytrain said:It's nice how Apple has the market cap crown for a short while. By the end of September, Amazon will have stolen the market cap crown (like candy from a baby) and won't ever give it back. There's absolutely nothing Apple can do about it to get it back. Jeff Bezos is hungry while Tim Cook doesn't care one way or another if Apple doesn't have the highest market cap. If Apple had acquired a cloud computing business, they would have had a good chance of battling it out with AWS. Now, Apple has nothing. A tech company without a cloud computing business is like a race car driver without a race car. Wall Street has endless praise for companies with cloud computing businesses that are said to have unlimited growth potential. Apple never pays attention to what Wall Street values the most. Too bad for Apple shareholders. All the Apple bulls who laughed at Amazon not making profit will now have to watch as Amazon leaves Apple in the dust in terms of overall value.

Apple admits to Imagination Technologies talks, declines takeover bid
Maybe Apple will buy them after they lay off everyone not working on mobile graphics. It would look bad if Apple bought the whole company and did the layoffs.

Think about how the administration feels about CNN and you will be on the path to enlightenment.GeorgeBMac said:One can only wonder why an administration so opposed to any and all regulation would oppose a vertical integration such as this that has historically seldom been opposed?There's more to this story than we, the public, know.
