  • Trump vs. Harris: How to watch the September 10 Presidential debate online

    Strange times.

    The debate is a formality. We know what we are getting with each person. It's not a mystery. The question is, do we want an America that looks like the last 4 years at home and on the world stage? Or do we want a country that looks like it did in the previous admin, both at home and abroad? It's not rocket science.

    As someone outside of the USA and regarding you question: do you want a country that looks like it did in the previous admin abroad: it was an embarrassment and a laughing stock around the world. I suspect you don't want that again.

  • Apple plans a thinner and more expensive iPhone 17 for 2025

    I don't think it counts if the camera bump still sticks out beyond the back of the phone.

  • Apple's FineWoven case and Apple Watch band lineup may have been cut short

    I posted this elsewhere but I'll do it again here since it is relevant. 

    I am seem to be one of the few people that got a FineWoven case that isn't a problem. Got it with the phone in September and it seems to be gong strong. 
    Ditto. No problems with mine either. As lovely as leather? No. But we’ve got to reduce the impact bovine agriculture has on the planet in every way possible. Either that, or reduce human population by about half. Good luck with that. Perhaps use human leather? /shudder/
    Yeah mine seems ok too. Agreed that it isn’t as good as the leather case that was on my Xs, but good enough.

  • Volvo to focus on value adds outside the infotainment system, will leave CarPlay alone

    Hopefully they're adding physical buttons back too. I test drove an XC40 a couple years ago while car shopping and had to quickly nix it from the list after trying to adjust the fan speed. The salesperson suggested I try voice control. Not likely. All touchscreen and voice control has been proven to be more distracting than physical knobs.

  • Leaked cases show off iPhone 15 Pro design changes in detail

    How anyone would benefit from a mute switch that no longer shows its status at a glance is beyond me, but if these rumors are true, hopefully the wisdom will become evident when the phones are announced and released.
    I haven't moved my mute switch from the mute position since I got the phone. I've had all my various iPhones on mute for probably at least 10 years now, only very rarely changing it momentarily. I strongly believe that the majority of people are the same, especially all but the older generations. 

    Agreed. They can remove the mute switch entirely as far as I'm concerned. Most people in my world also leave their phones on silent/vibrate entirely.
