  • How to use your iPhone to create your own passes and ditch your wallet

    For my physical cards I  have secrid: https://goo.gl/images/8hiFEC
    That and my iPhone is all I wear these days.. I'd just recommend the one with leather pouch.. without it slips too easily out of your pocket..
    it holds just six cards:
    - identity card 
    - driver's license 
    - debet card 
    - credit card
    - metro card 
    - city-bike-rental card

  • Apple has long-term plan, is working on products 'way out in the 2020s'

    That's not a standard definition of socialism.  Here's the definition from the source of all truth: 

    Socialism is a range of economic and social systems characterised by social ownership and democratic control of the means of production, as well as the political theories and movements associated with them. Social ownership may refer to forms of public, collective or cooperative ownership, or to citizen ownership of equity. There are many varieties of socialism and there is no single definition encapsulating all of them, though social ownership is the common element shared by its various forms.

    That may be the definition, but every socialist country in Europe is capitalist+safeguards.

    The X doesn’t feel like a beta, it’s the best iphone I’ve ever owned and I’ve had all but the first. 
    I confirm.. nothing beta about this phone.. at all..

    Don't try to turn everything into politics.   Socialism is where the Government owns everything.  Do you think Apple (or so-called "socialists") wants the Government to own it? Just because many people believe that capitalism doesn't work well for receiving medical care doesn't mean they want socialism for everything.    Even socialist countries have lots of capitalism.   
    I agree with your rebuttal, but even so want to dot some i's..

    Government owns everything = communism..
    Socialism  = capitalism + safeguards

    That's safeguards for the weak, obviously, because we all know who's gonna win in a battle between a rich guy and a poor if money is the only yardstick... But apparently that makes socialism something dirty.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
