I don't think so. There should be a period after "again." That's the end of that sentence.

He doesn't have a clue what honest people do. He's like Vance buying doughnuts for the first time in his life. "Follow the law, I guess, or whatever makes sense."

Tenacious iPhone user finally unlocks phone locked for almost a decade

Jump

Null User Object @programming.dev 2y ago

I don't understand.

“I have no idea who locked it in 2015,” she said.

So someone can just make your iphone inaccessible for a decade and you can't override it or log in, even if you have the passcode?

On the Apple Support community, one user reported their iPhone had been locked for 50 years. Similarly, a post on 9to5Mac’s forum mentioned an iPhone disabled for “23614974 minutes”—about 45 years.

I'm sorry, what? I guess I'll just add this to my list of reasons I'm glad I use Android. JFC.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen calls for an end to all restrictions on Ukraine striking Russian territory.

Intentionally targeting civilians isn't war, it's a war crime and it's terrorism. Ukraine has nothing to gain by committing war crimes and everything to lose, such as support from their allies and thus, the war.

True. I was more responding to the article that makes no reference to Ada Lovelace. She's deserves to be mentioned when that topic comes up.

All true. My point is that if they're polling current small business owners asking if she is business friendly, they might likely say no, because her plans aren't directly friendly to their specific company.

Well, one potential psychological flaw in her $50k small business tax credit is that it's only for new small businesses to go towards startup costs.

Existing small businesses that may be struggling can look at that and only see her making it easier for their future competition to get rolling. It's a net negative for them.

Just about the only people that are going to look at that tax credit and see how it benefits them are people that are already looking into starting a small business and the main thing holding them back is the startup costs. That's probably not a lot of voters.
