  • Another new kernel flaw that Google won't fix for Android users prompts more switching to Apple's i

    A new kernel privilege escalation flaw discovered in the Linux kernel requires server operators to install a patch, but is not going to be fixed for the majority of Android users. After record numbers switched to iOS last quarter, Google's inability to update its user base is inciting switchers to move to iPhones even faster.

    This article made me think of poor old BlackBerry, who are coming out with their new android phone.

    When I first heard this I wondered how BB would continue to advertise themselves as THE MOST SECURE PHONE.
    Now I realize their task to do so is VERY DIFFICULT, if not IMPOSSIBLE !

    Regardless of the truth of the title, nothing in the article supports it.

    Read the article again; carefully !

  • Donald Trump promises to make Apple manufacture in US instead of China

    Perfect example of how Trump cannot think (nor think things through). Does he seriously believe that only Apple makes electronics in China? So he'll be forcing all the other brands to make there in the US as well. Not that this clown is going to make it through the primaries, mind you, but it's pretty obvious he hasn't thought for even a single second what that would do to the price of all electronics. For once, however, I can say with confidence that this is not because he is stupid. It's because he is showing everyone, as he constantly does, that he is rich and doesn't care about YOU. Trump's not stupid ... it's anyone who supports him and isn't a multi-millionaire that's stupid.
    Trump talks on a very very low level emotional level. Are the voters going to respond to that ?
     If he makes it as the Republican leader, they deserve the loss in the presidential election which could be the result.
