idk what you mean. do you have examples of worthwhile content made on an ipad? I've never seen any

wow, i can't wait for this conversation where i show you literally anything made on an ipad and you shrug it off and say nope that's not worthwhile content

that's definitely something i want to do with my day, get into an argument with someone who refuses to define their terms

no, they showed in the first video that they turned the iPad by mounting it into a stand with a keyboard and turning it into an underpowered laptop. So that's how they got around it, by using the iPad in a way that no one would ever, ever use it normally and defeating its whole purpose. Sort of like how race cars that are required to be "street legal" and have baggage space used to get around the requirement by saying that the gas tank turns into a trunk when it's empty.

I’m incredibly susceptible to the temptations and trickeries of capitalism, and it’s because of people like me that product placement exists. Let me put it this way: When Patricia Clarkson said she was wearing Cherries In The Snow, a shade of Revlon lipstick, in her 7 Minutes In Heaven interview, I went to CVS the next day to buy Cherries In The Snow. I don’t even like Corona or Dos Equis, but I’ll drink the former because of the Fast & Furious franchise and the latter because of The L Word. But perhaps the most ridiculous time I ever succumbed to the pressures of product placement happened in college, when I used the search engine Bing instead of the more widely accepted Google for a full two years. Yep, for two years, my friends gasped in horror when they saw Bing as my homepage and default search bar. And it can all be attributed to The CW’s full-network efforts to push the Microsoft-owned search engine. Around 2010, characters on Gossip Girl and The Vampire Diaries started using the phrase “Bing it” as if it were a perfectly normal thing to say in everyday conversation, and the camera began to linger a little too long on characters’ Bing searches. Not sure how to kill a vampire? Bing it. Trying to track down Mia Kirshner’s whereabouts? Bing it. Wondering how Blair Waldorf can be such a perfect human being? Well, that’s probably one thing Bing can’t answer. For the record, I eventually came to my senses and switched back to Google. Sorry, Bing. Not even I can remain that committed to pretending my life is a CW show.

Windows Insiders running the Windows 10 Insider Preview (Home and Pro editions) with their registered MSA connected to their PC will receive the final release build of Windows 10 starting on July 29th. This will come as just another flight. I’ve gotten a lot of questions from Windows Insiders about how this will work if they clean installed from ISO. As long as you are running an Insider Preview build and connected with the MSA you used to register, you will receive the Windows 10 final release build and remain activated. Once you have successfully installed this build and activated, you will also be able to clean install on that PC from final media if you want to start over fresh.

so windows may still be free for filthy pirates so long as they subject themselves to evermore awful permanent betas

A single year, actually, it's been $349 since november; it was meant to be a temporary price drop to get as many holiday sales as possible, then their sales crashed so hard when they re-bumped it to $399 in january that they reversed it like 2 weeks later, and finally made it permanent. Selling fine.
