  • Family hit with $3,100 App Store bill after kid goes on Roblox spending spree

    Totally the adult's fault. There are tools available to prevent such a problem. Tools developed and implemented years ago. Parents need to be more involved with their children and take responsibility when they come up short. She's lucky the bank refunded her because they had every right to refuse to clean up her mess for her.

  • NBCUniversal ad exec Linda Yaccarino will be the new Twitter CEO

    ronnronn
    She's the CEO in name only. She was hired to sell advertising, period. Regardless of titles, Musk remains the de facto CEO of Twitter and under his control Twitter will continue to devolve into the cesspool he is making it.

    Or, in other words, advertisers will continue to flee Twitter because, really, who wants their product associated with the rants of white nationalist lunatics?
    Above all else Twitter is an adverting platform. Having a successful adverting executive run an advertising company does make sense. 
    Doesn't matter if advertisers won't spend money with twitter because it's such a fucking RWNJ cesspit now (despite how wonderful she *might* be), especially now that they're looking at bringing the advertiser repeller (Fucker Carlson) to the platform.

    As someone else pointed out, what a moron for paying $44B for a platform and turning it into something he could have bought (Parler) for ~$200. Musk thinks he's Midas, the results say the opposite.
    You seem to be reading my comment as some sort of endorsement of Twitter or Musk. It isn't the guy is a complete nob and I'm fairly convinced that Twitter will implode or be sold off at an incredible loss. My point that if your business is adverting then having someone that has success at an executive level isn't a bad choice to run it. She is qualified for the job. Plenty of qualified and talented have not failed to save a floundering company.

    New Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino is a former Trump appointee who follows insurrectionists and right-wing conspiracy accounts and likes their tweets. She's MAGA through and through. The coverage of her should reflect that fact.

  • Latest chapter of $2 billion Apple Watch patent battle ends in mistrial

    ronnronn
    Maximo better settle soon. It's not looking good for them at all. They'll eventually get nothing but a large legal bill should they try to go forward with another trial. And that's only if Apple doesn't squash the last Maximo patent in play.

    Of course they could actually prosecute people caught for vehicle theft and send them to prison, but property crimes are given a pass in NY. This is obviously just for show.
    I’ve heard this claim several times from talk-radio listeners, but my friends in NYC tell me it isn’t true. Do you have any documentation of this assertion, with particular regard to your implying that police do not bother with car thefts?
    Please don't hold your breath waiting for a reply.  ;)
