The Phillips bulbs I bought have a ridiculously high failure rate. About half have failed within 6 months. Much worse than the supermarket own brands, or cheaper ones from Amazon.

New iPhone SE 6 years ago

I’d never used a case until I got the iPhone 8 and had to buy one because of how slippery it is! Unless you put it on a perfectly flat surface it will just slide off on to the floor.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think there are any cases of people with brain injuries speaking languages they couldn’t speak before. And any foreign accent is a case of someone’s speech becoming distorted and coincidentally sounding similar to another accent.

The reason the LinkedIn app is so big is the number of frameworks they use. 87 frameworks accounting for 248MB of the 277. The swift runtime takes up about 20MB, and something called VoyagerFeed takes up over 190. All the images actually only make up about 12MB. There's also about 0.5MB for each localisation.

This is exactly what happens to me when the batteries around 10-20%. If I leave it for 10 minutes it will switch on again and the battery isn't drained, it usually switches off when I try to play music or use the map, but not just navigating the phone. I wonder if the battery does just need replacing though, but strange that I have only noticed this since installing iOS7.

I like how they manage to quote themselves from a TechCrunch article. "Bringing Data Together" says their CEO.
