  • iFixit finds third-party MacBook Pro and iMac Pro repairs still an option, at least for no...

    $600 to repair an apple proprietary keyboard? Anybody that defends this is nuts.
    I was quoted $360 to replace the keyboard on a 3 year old mac book pro. Now its a brick and useless . Im never going to buy a mac again. Nice one apple, you just lost future revenue. Im sure im not the only one?

  • FBI makes suspect unlock iPhone X in first confirmed instance of forced Face ID

    If you suspect the cops or FBI are after you disable FaceID or TouchID by triggering Emergency SOS mode.

    People do not need to have "something to hide" in order to hide "something". What is relevant is not what is hidden, rather the experience that there is an intimate area, which could be hidden, whose access should  be restricted. Psychologically speaking, we become individuals through the discovery that we could hide something from others.

    Julian Assange states: "There is no killer answer yet. Jacob Appelbaum (@ioerror) has a clever response, asking people who say this to then hand him their phone unlocked and pull down their pants. My version of that is to say, 'well, if you're so boring then we shouldn't be talking to you, and neither should anyone else', but philosophically, the real answer is this: Mass surveillance is a mass structural change. When society goes bad, it's going to take you with it, even if you are the blandest person on earth.

    1) If you're going to be a criminal then don't use a fricken a biometric (which I shouldn't be telling them, but I figure if they were smart enough to come to this forum then they'd already know better).

    2) I'm glad he was dumb enough to use Face ID if it gets a child pornographer and child abuser off the streets.

    3) Slight segue, but still very much the same issue: a recent study has shown that the one thing all human traffickers have in common is that they use the internet for sales. I wish we had better tools to stop this.
    Did you know that the definition of sex trafficking is broader than you realize: it does not only include pimps who coerce women into pristitution but also a john who happens to be caught in a sting can also be arrested for it now

    I hope the bastard gets worse than life. I support law enforcement gaining access to child abusers’ devices so they can put them away. 
    Next you will be telling us if you have nothing to hide then you dont mind the cops accessing your phone?

  • How to find Apple's Numbers power spreadsheet features behind the simplicity

    Numbers is great for simple things but in no way even close to the power of excel when it come to pivot tables and filtering data. Not even close!
