Joe 30330: Dec 20, 2007; "We have this notion that if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

uh then you actually get an inferior user experience that involves a poo poo ton of "YOU HAVE APP PURCHASES THAT AREN'T SYNCED DO U WANNA BACK THEM UP" erros and and it's loving confusing as poo poo like lol just take my things off my phone update the os then put my things back

gently caress itunes seriously

itunes has a serious identity crisis. first of all why are they keeping the name 'itunes' around. second yeah when i restore from a non-incloud backup it gives me some dumb error that 106 apps couldn't be found. what the gently caress does that even mean apparenlty it's because the cache is corrupted in itunes and i need ot tell itunes to redownload the apps. why in the gently caress. like who even know that itunes had copies of my apps why would it have copies of my apps. why isn't it just pulling them down from teh :yaycloud:

as far as the wobble phone goes, they probably should have just made it slightly thicker and used the space for batteries but ultimately it seems like nbd.

iOS8 sure comes up with weird word suggestions though.

is this actually the good way to do it? how much loving bullshit will i have to go through

please note: the computer this phone is actually synced to is broken right now :-(

No trollin' this is the way I've done every IOS upgrade since IOS 6 i think? I never have enough room.

it takes a little longer but works. The only downside is that if you have an app that is no longer in the app store i don't think it comes back.

not only that but they have ea movie player (quicktime) and icloud control panel for ballmerOS;; they should regroup and pull everything into a single app and call it: Steve Jobs.pbuh.exe

it's simple, just go through this easy 90-minute process that involves multiple device wipes and downloads to get the latest, bug-ridden os release at least a month before the first stability patch
