I think that in that case it should return false instead of 0 so (int)$val === false means that the variable is not a number. Right now I guess that the alternative is using is_numeric and then casting to int if possible.

Yes, I agree that disabling the SIM cards makes little sense. I wonder why they did that. Perhaps they think that if customers haven't upgraded their phones yet it's because they don't intend to.

3G is not only an internet service, it is also a voice service. Given that at&t closed down their 2G network, closing down their 3G network as well would mean that those phones would be unusable even for telephony purposes.

They asked me for 0.99€ forever, but they never suspended my account. This is true of everybody I know, but I am aware that some people had to pay. I am not sure of the criteria that they used to choose those who had to pay.

I agree with you. In the interest of cohesion and to avoid conflict, every new user who posts their point of view and isn't a centrist-leaning-to-the-left progressive ends up banned in the end. Even if the new user is polite and well-m

I think that Notepad and MS Paint were part of the Windows 2000 or NT leaks. But the most important part of notepad was the editing component, which was a standard win32 component, and wasn’t part of the leak. It’s also unlikely they’ll rel

On your phone, open Settings, then tap on your name (apple id), then tap on "payment and shipping", "subscriptions", or "media and purchases" -> "view account". All of those are webviews.

I notice non-native apps. Even if it is very subtle: Apple has some menus around the iCloud settings interface that are actually a webview. But what am I supposed to do, mail the dev telling them to make a native app instead? If they haven&

I consider that a feature. If you are on IRC I know that you are in front of your "main" computer and can dedicate your attention to me, instead of being on the tube and typing with a shitty phone keyboard trying to pay attention
