  • Apple plans another iPhone X style redesign for the iPhone 20

    KT123 said:
    With all the hype and wishful thinking about the foldable iPhone, no one has ever answered the question of how are you supposed to hold it next to your ear to answer calls on such a device, do you need to fold it closed first before answering the call or hold it open like an iPad mini next to your ear, how awkward would that be? Imagine taking such a call while walking your dog in a park and the look on the faces of others walking by !
    And then it clamps shut on your ear.  Hilarious.

  • iPhone blamed for including journalist in highly classified bombing plans

    President Trump's Ukraine and Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff was in Moscow, where he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, when he was included in a group chat with more than a dozen other top administration officials.

    All while using personal phones with at least one member improperly having used Siri to add a contact to his signal list.  

    Anything else the administration wants to admit to?

    What is the ratio of anti- to pro- Trump on this website? About 10-1?
    I think it’s more than that. Staff plus majority of the posting membership. 

    Almost all of the serious tech sites (not actively sponsored by someone with an agenda) around the Internet are easily anti Orange Buffoonery, which is not a surprise, most people in science, medicine, programming, mathematics, finance need to think more clearly and plan long-term in order to make it in school or their careers it’s one of the reasons that Mitt Romney (former Bain CEO) can’t stand Trump and the ratio probably is 2/3 not 10 to 1. The cloudy thinking red areas are reversed the other way 60-40 taking Oklahoma or Tennessee (voting results) as an example.
    This tariff issue is prime example. Trump supporters see a potential win that they doubt understand will be short-term and corrosive to the country’s future. A negotiation that’s fair, in which neither side is coerced or bullied into accepting an outcome is a negotiation that’s fair will result in a fair deal that stands the test of time. That is not what’s going on here. Trump is used the threat of global financial Armageddon to force wins in his column of the global trade ledger. And he might be successful in doing so. However, he will also be quite successful in alienating all of America’s allies to the point where they will seek to cut America out and make trade deals with other nations, some who might be our prime competition for world dominance in several critical arenas; economics, military, science and political influence. What Trump supporters see is the immediate win, the gotcha. What the rest of us see are the nuances, the ramifications, the downstream effects. And those are not in our favor. The anti-vaccine crowds is about to see how the world vaccinates itself against U.S. influence and power. It will not end well for America and Americans.

    And how often was Obama on the golf course?
    Obama played golf 333 times during his 8 years, which is more than Trump. Trump's golf tally is harder to count, because one of his homes is on a golf course, and he's not always playing golf when he's at that home.
    That’s 41 times, on average, per year for eight years. 
    Trump played golf 240 tine in his first term in office, for an average of 60 tine per year.  Your response, while correct, leaves out the lengths of time in office, which is a key factor.
