If there's more than one way to do a job, and one of those ways will result in disaster, then he will do it that way.
I would LOVE to wear public used headphones.

tell us about the 13 year old router you own because it's inexpensive and you can install some open sores operating system on it that allows you to meaninglessly janitor it and has a slightly better interface than the granted garbage oem one

lol john gruber

quote:

“We are with him and will help in any way we can” sounds like “I’m ready to spit-shine his shoes” to my ears. I expect all of them to be polite — or perhaps better put, politic — in their public statements on the meeting, but there’s no need for these CEOs to fall in line.

I expect Tim Cook to handle himself just fine. I think he’ll leave Trump Tower with his dignity, integrity, and Apple Inc.’s interests under a Trump administration intact. (Getting a bill passed to repatriate foreign-held dollars at a reasonable tax rate could happen in the post-Trump political climate.) But, man, to be a fly on the wall in that room if Steve Jobs were still alive…

just a guess: an older version of office registered itself with siri as "word / Microsoft Word" and the pointer to the app got broken in an office update (or never worked correctly), but siri can always still find an app that you call by its proper name
