Two different folding iPhone prototypes allegedly pass first quality checks
For me, the water resistance and improved durability of the latest iPhones is far more valuable than the ability to fold into something smaller than the iPhone 12 Mini. Indeed, I'm more interested in seeing the water resistance and durability spread to iPads than any kind of folding ability for either iPhones or iPads.

Some Mac software has made it all the way from 68K to M1 - here's why
For me, from back when my work computer was a Mac IIci, until today, MacTracker has been instrumental in my work, keeping tracks of the upgradability of Macs so informed decisions can be made as to what to upgrade and what to replace.

HomeKit isn't ready yet for your front door
Does the Netatmo unit suffer the same issues and limitations? I realize the Logitech is cheaper; but if the Netatmo doorbell is better able to handle these issues, that might well justify the extra $100 or so. -
Apple security chief Thomas Moyer indicted in concealed firearm permit bribery case
Proper fee AND the shakedown.davgreg said:Sounds like an attempted shakedown by the PoPo.
Apparently the price of the permits was the shakedown price instead of the proper fee.

Apple security chief Thomas Moyer indicted in concealed firearm permit bribery case
So, in your view, victims of extortion rackets are criminals. Would you have taken such an unjust and warped position if the permit being sought was not for carriage of arms? Are you always a defender of extortion rackets?Terminator402 said:
They both participated in a conspiracy and bribe with a public official with the clear understanding that their "payment or merchandise" would result in them receiving ccw permits that would not normally be issued. It's an illegal quid pro quo and the Grand Jury found it to be a felony criminal act.fahlman said:nikon1 said:So these 2 CLOWNS (Moyer & Chadha) risked their careers and wanted to avoid paying between $200 & $400 to legitimately get their CCW legally? They should be imprisioned for pure greed and stupidity.
What a pair of Morons!Reading comprehension and knowledge of the process is important if you're going to personally attack someone by calling them a moron. In many places the local law enforcement entity is required to approve the issuance of a concealed carry permit. Moyer and Chadha were not trying to avoid paying the fee, as you claim. In this case Undersheriff Sung held up issuing CCW licenses until Moyer and Chadha paid him a bribe. Who's the moron now?
