They raided Trump's wife's underwear drawer too so Trump is a victim of this FBI overreach as well.

If you have an iPhone, the latest iOS 26 will answer unknown numbers not in your address book for you and ask what they want and then alert you to see if you want to take the call.

Great question are people predicting we will have enough computing power to "break" bitcoin? How much is needed?

I was hoping this was going to be an FM/AM radio in iPads and iPhones.

I wish all phones and tablets had an FM/AM tuner to play over the air content without an internet or cell connection.

Mr Brand is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law or he admits his crimes.

Google taking down his YouTube income before a guilty verdict is horrible.

For some reason Google/Youtube have not demonetized R. Kelly, and he was found guilty. Or Cardi B. She admitted to drugging men and stealing from them.

17 Years ago this audio/video explained it all. Props to the artist Landon for laying down the audio to a record and playing the audio (with examples) from the record. 6.8 millions views - the Winstons will never be forgotten.
