>This is scary as hell.

"The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist."

If it looks like a conspiracy, it's probably one.

I hope consumers return these phones in droves like Windows RT and Windows 10 S. The issue is that sideloading isn’t an immediate concern—users would only realize the limitation later, when it’s too late to return the device.

> It's not like relations between China and the West aren't already as hostile as the West can tolerate.

Fela bled for Nigeria—literally.

He carried scars on his back from police and soldier beatings meant to silence him for speaking against the government. His houses and estate were set ablaze. His land was seized by the government and never returned.

His mother was thrown off a building by soldiers.

Yet, the very people he fought for chose to focus on his vices and mocked him for them.

I’m glad he finally got this award.

Nope. Not Nadella. He'll kill windows in a heartbeat.

> That'll wear out the battery quickly. Why does this happen? If it's about overcharging, is it impossible to stop charging once the battery is full?
