I mean, the study states clearly that the PFAS are in the "food contact materials" in question, here, which are the microwave popcorn bags. Then they end up in the people. Kind of open and shut.

Except that doesn't actually work. Absolute pitch is the ability to name a given tone, which is actually quite a wide range of frequency. It doesn't mean you can produce that tone anywhere nearly as accurately as is required to tu

Is it fundamentally auditory? Is that all that's going on? You're forgetting that music has a text. It is a text. Especially, of course, music that involves voices. (Or at least most of it.) Reading a language and a musical text i

Literally no part of this comment is correct. The Mac mouse and trackpads have had right-click for over a decade. Mac windows controls, obviously, pre-dated Windows' versions since Windows was a copy of the Mac. And patents have never

It's not fixed because it's not a bug. Obviously. It's a feature that you want that would annoy the vast majority of users. Which is why they aren't implementing it. Who wants an annoying continuous beepy sound? It'

Springbars are manifestly not easier to use at all. They're more fragile and far more difficult to use.

Apple's Sport Band, i.e. its "basic strap", is $49. And it's well worth it. The bands I got way back in 2015 are still in great condition and working fine after a lot of heavy use. As for Apple's stainless steel lin

The app of choice for professional musicians is ForScore, and there's really no competition. https://forscore.co/ 100% of my colleagues are using ForScore on an iPad for these purposes. Great feature set, great support

Am I the only one who think the 41CX totally outclasses the 42 series?

I have a Montblanc I got in the 80s. Still a pleasure to use. Great investment. For those seeking something more affordable, the Kaweco Sport is a great pen, great price, well worth the money, and a real pleasure. Ink cartridges are cheap,

This skill has absolutely nothing to do with whether one has perfect pitch, however.

That's actually not likely at all. There's no reason for Apple to trash its reputation by doing something stupid like this for Qualcomm's benefit.

It's entertaining that this article clumsily lumps Apple in with Google regarding this stealth data collection, but without offering a single shred of evidence that Apple is doing this at all, let alone doing it secretly.

Although that's not really a downside of CarPlay itself, and you can also solve that with the Optimized Battery Charging feature, in iOS 13 or later. So just turn that on.

That will be easily fixed by roping in the capabilities of something like Wolfram Alpha, which will probably happen quickly.

This doesn't seem to support any allegation that the NYPD "publicly threatened" DeBlasio's "children". What did happen is that the NYPD Sergeants' union inappropriately tweeted details about her arrest, af

Did you miss the Murdaugh murders in South Carolina? Might want to review that the murderer's family was in charge of basically the entire justice system in a wide swath of that state. For the last 100 years.

Definitely not that atypical. Go read about Fischer v. Spassky, for instance.

I lived a few blocks from here for years. So I can vouch. The museum is amazing. It's a time capsule.

Apple figured it out. Again. They didn't over-hire, and they still haven't done a major layoff since 1997. So, maybe it was not obvious, but there are some people who were able to figure it out, apparently.

Nearly everything remotely related to deepfake porn not only "suggests" bad faith, but positively compels the judgment of extreme levels of bad faith.

Yes. Humans can't remember a sufficient number of sufficiently-complex passwords.

One has to wonder what would prompt someone to issue such a violent, random, unhinged threat, in response to a simple question. You're clearly here propping up LastPass, you don't seem to have a particularly strong argument, as no

After they've already been shown to have been dishonest previously, and after they chose to make an additional disclosure on the last working day (for most) before Christmas, I think you have to assume your data is at risk, and act acc

>Shit, if that was a real concern you would have to be a complete idiot to use LastPass in the first place. What are you even talking about? Of course it's a real concern. That exact kind of thing happens constantly. And of course,

This means that if a breach reveals more than one of your passwords, the pattern is easily recognized and you just made ALL your passwords extremely weak. Not a great idea.

Sorry, I was unclear. What I meant was, I was not claiming that Facebook acted on behalf of the Chinese government. So I was conceding that part of the point.
