Of course Texas, the lawsuit capital of the world - one which favors, almost invariably, the litigant! So wrong, but that's how the world rolls!

  • Review: DJI's Mavic Pro is the best iPhone-connected drone you can buy

    In my 71 years on this planet, I have never encountered the fk-U-customer service that is DJI. Their products may get good ratings, and their innovations may be "ground breaking", but they will never find a home in mine!

  • Install the AT&T 'Call Protect' app on your iPhone to cut way back on spam calls

    WHAT!!! If you get a caller you want blocked, simply go into "recent" in the phone app, click on the "i" in the circle on the righthand side - that takes you to a page that, at the bottom, gives you the option to Block Caller! The blocked caller's numbers are saved in a database on your phone. But, it's not surprising that there are a plethora of Apps and services that do this in some convoluted way, or actually make you pay for the service. All I can say is WTF!

  • Analyst speculates Apple's OLED 'iPhone 8' could ditch embedded fingerprint sensor

    After the 3,000th article - which go back and forth and back again - on this issue, PLEASE, can we wait until the 8 is released. Or do you have nothing more to do than parrot dozens of other sites? Perhaps it's time to do some useless speculation on the new MacPro 2018? Or maybe just stop the freaking speculation and give us some hard fact, interesting news. Oh, by the way - your "always stay logged in" DOESN'T WORK!

  • How to securely back up your iPhone or iPad to iCloud or iTunes

    Those Apple geniuses did it again. I call it the Apple one step forward, three steps backward waltz! The iCloud setting is NO LONGER IN THE MAIN SETTINGS WINDOW! WTF, you say?! Yup, because it's something you use so often, they chose to hide it in the "Masthead" - the very top of Settings, under your name/photo - you'll now find "Apple ID, iCloud, iTunes & App Store". There it is. And why? NO FUCKING REASON AT ALL other than to confuse us! Whether or not you've noticed it over the last few years, whenever they "update" a program or OS, they add functionality, but almost always remove (for me in some cases) critical functionality.

  • New Apple Park drone footage reveals occupied research and development building, landscapi...

    All of these buildings and all of these employees, and what comes of it - a [Red] iPhone, and not a whole lot more. WTF are they doing? Cooks says "lots in the pipeline" Is he talking about the Keystone pipeline? Certainly after all of this time, people and acquisitions you'd think there'd be some amazing tech happening — what a sad excuse for a company Apple has become. I've been using their products exclusively since 1993, but I just can't see this continuing!
