Besides the content of the article, this particular blogspot page is littered with tons of ads. The layover ad says: “This content requires Java Plug-in 12.4.1 Would you like to install now?”

It seems the author of the article couldn’t elaborate any further. Apple wouldn’t want their developers to write apps for iOS platform on anything but the Mac; not in the forseeable future.

From the article:

A local plan to require schoolgirls in part of Java to undergo the so-called virginity tests before they could gain a secondary school diploma was scrapped after an outcry earlier this year.

That should make you scratch your head and yell some profanities.

There are a lot of “can’t make this stuff up” news about Indonesia.

There’s no such thing as Free Speech Arrested for calling Indonesian city 'idiotic' http://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-29035858

It goes on and on...

huh?

Those screens were damaged, both plastic and glass alike.

Some people think that since it is a glass screen, using cleaning solution like Windex is ok. That’s so not recommended.

I have seen many damaged computer screens, desktop and laptop. One of the most common themes is the cleaning solution used to clean the screen. A lot of people admits they are using the common household cleaning solutions to clean the screens.

No, I am not employed by any financial institutions.

At that time my colleague added her Wells Fargo card to Apple Pay and it went through without any notifications from the bank. She has been using this card with iTunes store though.

Another colleague added her F&A Federal Credit Union card and went through with little notifications.

First National Bank of Omaha notifies the email address on file that that the card is added to Apple Pay.

US Bank actually sends a letter via mail that the card was added to Apple Pay.

This could change by now.

Some Credit Card issuing banks actually went through verification process when a card was aadded to Apple Pay. For example, a colleague added her United Airlines MileagePlus Club Card. She had to verify her identity before the card was approved for Apple Pay.

Meanwhile, another credit card issuing bank which shall remain unnamed, did not go through the verification process when the card was added to Apple Pay.

I have worked on 6 units of 2011 MacBook Pro that had this issues. Two of them were repaired out-of-warranty, which cost $210+tax for parts and $100 for labor.

I talked to AppleCare rep a few hours ago and Apple will refund me the repair cost.

FTP:

Extensive air showers generated by cosmic rays produce muons and high-energy photons, which can be detected by the CMOS sensors of smartphone cameras.

No this does not validate the “Cosmic Rays Entering Earth From Mars” hoax.

It seems a lot of people forgot about the piece, or at least that’s what Newsweek is hoping.

Whether or not Dorian Nakamoto won the lawsuit or not, Newsweek’s credibility goes down at least a notch.

I rolled my eyes every time someone linked to the “publications” you’ve mentioned: readwrite, thenextweb, techcrunch, mashable… add venturebeat, buzzfeed, cnet, business insider, the street, and many more……

It is all in the name of page hit, no longer about useful information.

From Amazon Local Registers:

In order to ensure that the funds are deposited to your bank account on the next business day, you must set up automatic daily transfers or manually transfer the funds from your Amazon Payments account to your bank account by 4 pm local time (4 pm Pacific for AK and HI). Not all banks have the ability to receive deposits within one business day. Contact your bank for details. Reserves may apply, including for manually keyed transactions.

It seems that the funds can be directly deposited to bank accounts.
