Trump Mobile's made-in-US iPhone 17 competitor is really made in China
Sure.Still, the lies they propagate in their press release aren’t, technically, his.

Ah, I wasn’t aware. Yep, he still owns it, but his kids are running it since 2017. Okay. Fair point.9secondkox2 said:

“Trump Mobile is also excited to announce it will release the “T1 Phone” in August. It is a sleek, gold smartphone engineered for performance and proudly designed and built in the United States”That is a lie. It’s on Trump.com — which, I must assume, is the current president’s commercial website.That is the website of the trump organization which was handed off to his kids years ago.

Amazing to think that Carter sold his peanut farm because it was assumed that the responsibility of running the then-most-powerful nation on Earth allowed for no distractions.

FireWire may finally be dead in macOS 26 & Apple isn't looking back
Both. Until USB2, FireWire was king for anything multimedia. It made home DV possible, and for a few years, it was the only option.mikethemartian said:
It wasn’t because of technological reasons that it lost to USB but because chipmakers like Intel balked at including it in their chips when Apple wanted royalties.quakerotis said:FireWire lost out because Apple wanted royalties for its use. Hence the 1394 disparity that made FireWire different on every platform and ultimately doomed.Eventually, the nominal 480 MBps of USB2 was “good enough” and roughly equivalent to FW400, while being cheaper. FW800 was relevant for storage only (audio doesn’t really need the bandwidth), and as CPUs got faster, the CPU dependence of USB ceased to matter.FW800 had a brief window of limited appeal, but the USB roadmap quickly sidelined it entirely.
