Military experience with millimeter wave radar says otherwise and such radars pump out a lot more energy than a smartphone. If what they are alleging was true, civilian planes would be crashing every time a military helicopter illuminated it with it…

FTC could also add multiple counts of fraud, given Meta’s filing in their defense against journalist John Stossel’s defamation suit asserting that their “fact checks” are mere opinion, and therefore not subject to defamation claims, as opposed to cl…

I doubt this design will hold up as well, or enjoy the same water and dust resistance as current monolithic designs Indeed, I strongly suspect the hinge point will become a magnet for mold in humid climates.

I confess to certain level of surprise that the FCC is oddly silent on this matter, as the FAA is essentially encroaching on their ostensible purview. I should also point out that the various US militaries have used C-band devices in conjunction wit…

The entitlement of people with little to no comprehension of supply and demand, let alone the rest of basic economics has a high correlation with absurd demands that have little to no chance of being fulfilled. Typically when such economic illiterat…

In short, students of Swift are screwed, especially if they’re trying to finish a project before the end of the semester. It’s interesting that the assumption made by many is that this flub has no meaningful consequences and disregard the fact that …

Never grant the state any power you would not entrust to your worst enemy. This isn’t a hard concept.

I can easily tell the difference between my wife’s 12 mini and my 13 mini, from camera functionality alone. With all respect and gratitude to Mr Wozniak, I must presume that his criteria is purely aesthetic, with no regard for functionality at all.

If the notch allows a significant reduction in bezel, then I’m fine with it; but I have mixed feelings regarding the Touch Bar. On the one hand, I despise having to use multiple touches to adjust sound or brightness, on the other, I do like the odd …

I have a car made in Japan in 2003 for the 2004 model year that does not have CarPlay have any kind but it does have a fairly decent Bose audio system from the factory and a satnav that was farmed out to a 3rd party for foreign (non-JDM) markets. Th…

Both my oldest child and I have upgraded to iPhone 13. In her case, from an XR, and in my own from a 2nd generation SE. My wife remains on her 12. I would like to see how the surveyor carried out participant selection and how the actual questions we…

With the apparent demise of the mini after the iPhone 13, I’m holding off on any future upgrade as long as possible.

Following the rules and jumping through the hoops set up by legislators is not using “loopholes”. Legislators & regulators use this kind of defamatory language in order to excuse their desire to expand the scope of their power. One could easily …

It seems to me that Apple focused on a more power efficient cpu for this time around, as increased battery life was stressed.

It would be nice to see this sort of workaround brought to the 2nd generation SE. Had my 7’s microphone not died before the release of the 12 mini, I’d have gotten it instead; but it’s hard to justify a phone that had only been acquired a couple mon…
