I have a video of Natalie indoors at 240 FPS. Not too bad.

Those portable charges, for me, are lifesavers. You can charge an iPhone 3-4 times on one charge, but they're heavy and bulky, however they have gotten smaller and lighter: http://www.bhphotovide

Yes, but probably not until the spring. That chip has been delayed for awhile.

I don't follow that stuff closely at all, though.

Just got the 6S plus. It's pretty accurate with GPS. Like the display as well.

Shots fired from Google. The Apple rejoinder would be you want to play the same piece, go to a roomful of pianos with vastly differently shaped keyboards and find it difficult to play the same piece without have to learn each keyboard.

They've been doing this for months, this whole campaign.

I don't see it. My phone is vastly different than my wife's. And Dave's. The case, the color, the wallpaper… They're just running the same OS. So what?

This one's from over a year ago:

Makes about as much sense as the piano one.

I would rather have a product that works, and works well, than a product that just looks a little different than my friends.

Really don't see the point of that ad campaign.

I am waiting for the SkyLake version of MBP 15" as well.

Looks more like September availability at best.  The dGPU (supposedly will use AMD's Polaris) is expected to be available in June.  That will make it more likely 15" SkyLake MBP will be announced in June (WWDC) at the earliest.  13" maybe announced in March but 15" most likely will not.

All those people expecting announcement of new 15" MBP in March will be disappointed.

I was watching TV last night and an AT&T ad came on. The customer in the ad says, "Hey Siri....". My iPhone answers, "What can I help you with?" :-P

Certain tech podcasts I know bleep those words out.

I turned that off on my phone because it happens often enough to be annoying, and I almost never do it on purpose.

I have it, but I haven't used it that much. Most of the machines still need to be updated.

I was hoping for a new MacBook Pro, but that was just speculation. No more "OS X" as the operating system name. Hopefully the Music app is better.

I'm still trying to wrap myself around the idea of an iPhone without a headphone jack, but right now, man, that's just a bad idea. I was fine with removing the dvd drive from the laptops, but no headphone jack?

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
