    As far as I remember for a not too old report, Laurene'a boyfriend was a previous Major of Washington, DC. But I do not follow this type of news.
    That’s true.  Sleep with dogs, wake up with fleas. She’s no Steve. 
    What dogs and what fleas? I know that’s an analogy but what do you mean by it here? And in what way and why would you expect her to be like Jobs? A product designer?
    This. Do enlighten us.

  • We're removing Political Outsider

    jSnivelyjSnively
    After a few days of discussion, reading and introspection we have decided to remove the PoliticalOutsider sub-forum from this site.

    The truth of the matter is that forum acts like an ever-hanging full moon, emboldening otherwise reasonable people to twist and contort into something else, and as a shining beacon for people who just want to kick up some dirt to laugh at anyone who gets it in their eyes.

    The final straw was the advertiser warning we received from Google over the weekend. It referenced a thread from 2007 where people had been discussing terrorism and the images that people thought were appropriate to include were, in a word, appalling. I specifically mention this not because of the advertiser warning (though that is pertinent), but because it highlights that PO has always kind-of been a problem that we've just been ignoring. That path is no longer sustainable.

    Removal of this forum has nothing to do with our political leanings or beliefs, and we're not taking anyone's side. It has simply become clear that the benefits do not outweigh the issues it creates. As a small team it has become a large distraction for some, it causes problems with advertisers and indexers (this weekend is not the first time we've received such a warning), and to be completely honest it probably doesn't belong on a site for fans of Apple in the first place.

    We are currently not making any other changes to our content policy.
