Leaked Senate encryption bill called 'ludicrous, dangerous' by security experts
Well first off this bill itself was "leaked"? as in the very people who wrote it couldn't even keep IT secure? LOL Would someone PLEASE do a two minute hack into Feinstein's phone and release it all,over the internet? It's the ONLY way all of this is going to go away. Where's Snowdrn when we really need him? I dont expect to see a sex tape of hers, (oh god I hope not anyway), but maybe some top secret stuff leaked directly from her device would give that ill informed mess some idea as to what is at stake here. -
Apple says Mississippi 'religious freedom' bill 'empowers discrimination'
When I was growing up I remember seeing two signs in every establishment:
"NO SHIRT
NO SHOES
NO SERVICE"
The other one was:
"WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE TO ANYONE"
When did these two basic concepts become "racially motivated"? I'm a business owner and I still have those signs up. It has NOTHING to do with race it says to my customers:
1. If you're a bumb I'm not serving you food without clothes. This isn't the beach and no one wants to eat looking at your bare nasty feet and arm pit hair -'sorry!
2. If you're an obnoxious ass I'll kick you out. People came for a nice meal not to hear you or your kids screaming for 60 minutes because neither of you were taught any manners.
These are just common sense rules.
In fact now just like our post office we have a third one:
3. No cell phones allowed.
Take it outside. No one wants to hear your big mouth yapping like you're actually important and by the way you're NOT important!!! Even if your mommy said you were your whole life. You're NOT deserving of any special attention over those around you. I even make doctors go upside and they're saving lives.
There used to be a time when if you wanted to make a phone call you went into a phone booth, closed the door and talked not disturbing others. So now its like we've completely lost all sense of manners and every single table at a restaurant has a "phone booth" (cell phone) but without the doors to close so as to not disturb others?? "Not on my fresh salad!"
If people want to refuse business for whatever reason then they should. End of story. It doesn't matter what sex acts you enjoy privately, it's my business and your business is none of my business too. It's my reputation and I just don't like your face so thats good enough for me. Gosh imagine a cell phone free meal? Obviously business is booming. Sorry PC (politically correct) police. Not happening in my business. "You got a complaint? There's the door dude!"
And although i am a die hard apple fan boy who goes so far as to beta test both they're hardware and software... who's business of there's to tell me who I can and can not sell to? Stay out of other people business. Can you image back in the '50s or '60s if Coke started coming out voicing their "opinion!" Who cares? Sell your product and shut up. If you're in business keep your comments to yourself. No one wants to go see Madonna in concert then sit through one of her 15 minute PC rants. People now just walk out. They went to be entertained not to be told how to think or what to wear.
Growing up in SF as a gay man, i was told what to wear, where to where it, what clubs to go to, only shop at gay establishments, "hankie on right or left but you MUST wear a hankie showing what you're into sexually so everyone at Macy's knows"... Oh and believe me if you didn't you were publicly scorned. I mean name listed in the gay rags, etc. I moved to AZ to be free and be able to think and do for myself. Not to be pushed around by gay assholes.
Life as a gay person living in Arizona is so much nicer here. I am 100% respected and not treated any differently because I'm gay living in a 99% straight world. Yeah I've raised my voice and been asked tonleave but not because I'm a fag. It's because I was being an ass. Of which I then went back and apologized. But rather than be shunned as I would have in SF I shook hands and offered a free meal. It's for that reason I both appreciate it and love it here. Treated just like everyone else. Free of the gay police who tells you how to think and what to wear? It's freeing.
I don't want to be singled out. And here I'm not. If someone brought me a picture of a penis and asked me to make it into a wedding cake I'd point to the sign "we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone" because that's NOT what my company does. Take your request somewhere else. And if no one wants to make it then maybe it's just in bad taste? Ever think of that?? It's not racists it's just vulgar to me, so go somewhere where they think that's funny. I don't see Apple making a penis shaped iPad when I asked them to, so either put your money where your mouth is or shut up Apple! Why don't you get back to making product that actually works out of the box again and stop proofing the world. If they want to support something keep it to themselves or start selling that penis shaped iPad Pro -
Pinky torture: Why the iPhone SE is a one-handed wonder, and the iPhone 6s is not
paxman said:I have a 5s and my pinkies function as 'phone shelves' even for this 'one handed' phone. I think they probably did back in the 4 days as well. I don't have particularly small hands but one handed use for me is an error strewn affair. Pretty much the only thing I do one handed with a high degree of success is answer calls.
yikes realky?? I can think of one other thing off hand that you could do one handed but maybe your pinkie is wrong on that too? <LOL> -

sog35 said:Your holding it wrong.
Buy bigger hands.
oh well. I don't mind using 2 hands. I mean what's the big deal with using two hands anyway?
What the hell are people using their other hand for?
Driving?
Eating?
Picking their nose?
Carrying a baby?
jacking?
I don't get this obession with 1 handed use (my apologies to people with only 1 hand)
The real question is can Apple make a 4.7 inch phone with bezel's small enough that 1 handed use it possible?
Actually I would think the pinky would been "more off the phone" for everyone except for people with "Burger King" hands (remember those ads? They were hysterical) because the 4" is so tiny and it hangs below with less real estate, but to each it's own. Still I did try to hold it the bizarre way he was for about 4 minutes. Sorry. My hands aren't big but I t's still just bizarre to hold it that way.
My only complaint with the 6 Plus and 6s Plus was the start button on the right instead of the top. Because now that I'm so used to it... I keep clicking there on ALL my devices only to turn up the volume instead. <Lol>. Who knew I'd grow to like that if all things?
PS: speaking of Burger King... Anyone try those new hot dogs yet?? Grill hot dogs! They are soooooo Good! Even with small hands -
Apple plans to 'loop you in' at March 21 event with expected new 4" iPhone, 9.7" iPad
