Alex Jone's has hurt society far less than most mainstream journalists who have pushed lies to support wars. Meanwhile we have sent $180billion to arm real Nazi's in Ukraine and the Bluesky crowd talks about an arm gesture for a month.

Yes; those fools are allowing the communists to control their minds! Tune into Fox News with the enlightened people like me.

Whups forgot closing tag.

I've got a 4k TV that has pretty good color and 30hm refresh @ 4k... but up sampled 1080p looks good and in a pinch it's a crappy 4k monitor. I also recently got a 4k 60z monitor because I was getting frustrated using the tv. The color on the monitor is shitty... but I don't really care. My workspace is weird and I sit about 2 feet from the monitor, and even with old eyes the resolution is very useful (with glasses).

Even if that's true if I want to get close and only look at a quarter of the screen, the extra pixels could be useful...

This didn't make national news like it should have. Capitalism and dangerous things don't seem to mix too well.

You make good points... Encryption hopefully works as I've implemented for me :) I went to a wifi radio mfg event for resellers recently and some of the resellers were really concerned that Apple's MAC randomization (which doesn't really work yet) was going to hurt their location tracking abilities... It's not terribly hard to figure out I surf with a device with a certain mac address... and many of these muni wifi systems require you to login... directly, thru google, thru Facebook, etc before you get access... I love free WiFi but I'm cynical, and I think some muni's are doing bad things; I wouldn't be surprised if some are doing automated MITM attacks.

Can be a lot cheaper than other ways of spying; Associate a person with wireless MAC's or shudder their Facebook account and you've got NSA class intel, and better location data.

Hypothetically, let's say the NSA captures everything they can about the members of the 3 branches of the federal government, and analyzes it well... wouldn't it be pretty easy to control them?

Here ya go :) I think it's limited to 4 digit pass codes though. A snipped from their FAQ: How can I get a list of what devices you support? We will gladly supply a full list of supported devices and also specifically what can and cannot be recovered from each one to any legitimate enquiry. Just email us, explaining your business need for the information and we will be delighted to assist you once we have verified your identity.

Damn regulators.

Yea I've had iOS7 on a couple devices since WWDC; it wasn't painful on an iPhone 4S IMO... and it's no longer painful on a mini IMO... battery life was terrible; battery's better now that they've removed a lot of debugging stuff but still significantly worse than 6 on older devices.... I got a new iPhone, and the battery's better with iOS7 than my 4S was with iOS6... maybe some of the battery saving measures they took only work on the new chip.

I'm kind've a MS hater, but for some reasons I'll omit I needed a Surface Pro... I assumed it would really suck. I don't really like Windows 8 or 8.1 yet. IMO it's a nice device, and the future for some windows users. Too expensive for many today, the hardware is nice; battery life sucks, but for most executive types who use MS Office, it's pretty awesome to be able to plug it into a usb3 hub and big monitor at your office/home, and bring the thing minus the externals with you wherever.
