Apple

Hockey Players in commercials are usually a recipe for some shenanigans. Joe Thornton and P.K. Subban did not disappoint. Check out the latest Apple iPhone 14 commercial that debuted in Canada during the Super Bowl.

Looks like the government is at it again now that Apple has come out stating that they are not going to roll over and provide a master key to their iPhone software. Really NSA? How about the part where the terrorist didn’t use encryption in these attacks.

European media outlets are reporting that the location of a raid conducted on a suspected safe house Wednesday morning was extracted from a cellphone, apparently belonging to one of the attackers, found in the trash outside the Bataclan concert hall massacre. Le Monde reported that investigators were able to access the data on the phone, including a detailed map of the concert hall and an SMS messaging saying “we’re off; we’re starting.” Police were also able to trace the phone’s movements.

I was fortunate enough recently to get a fancy pants amazon gift card for some hard work put in the off hours at work. Mainly, 5 tests earning myself 2 certifications and several “specialist” designations over the past 6 months. What did I do with this new gift card, of coarse spend it as soon as I could on something totally geeky.

And here it is, a new OCZ 120GB Solid State drive for the mac mini which is my home dev machine.

Apple has recently announced a iPod nano (1st generation) Replacement Program. While this is great that they are being proactive and replacing iPods with bad batteries. I have to ask the question…how many of these owners have already moved on to other iPod devices?

The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. – Think Different!

RIP Steve.
