They plan to ship 80 MILLION iPhone6(+) this year alone, so that's 1.25 USD/phone in cost to cover the album. Peanuts.

It has been my understanding that Apple will keep OSX and iOS separate but for features that make sense to be on both. I don't expect a iMac Touch or Macbook Touch soon, but maybe I am wrong.

Heh, my wife was asking about such a site, and like I explained to her: you really think that someone who has collected all this data is just handing it out for free? No, it's IMO just a small, probably outdated sample. Moreover, I wouldn't trust any site that allows me to check if I am on the list. This just confirms that such accounts are active or at least that someone cares enough about it to check it.

I guess this is just a small fraction of the actual list, because such a list has a value and why just handing it out for free? Releasing a fraction and seeing people going upset because they are on the list, and it's actually their password, however, increases the value of the actual list. Even more so if the actual list is more recent.

And you know it's wrong because ... ?

Anyway, for one the photos were collected over months and only of a hand full of celebs. If iCloud was breached there would be terrabytes of data on the piratebay. But maybe I should just hold my breath a bit longer?

The iPhone 6 is 4.7", and might fit your hand better than the 4.7" phone you had.

Yeah, collected over months and "suddenly" leaked a week before this event ...

"I wish everyday that an alien race would land on this planet so we finally have a true comparison. Lets see how "fantastic" we are when that happens."

This would create a culture shock way more severe compared to "a bunch of diverse indian tribes that got their asses kicked by the Spanish". And hence those aliens you love so much would be worse than those humans you seem to hate so much.

Finally, you can have true compassion, too. If you just made an effort instead of hating here.

Not my experience but probably has to do that I clear out all tabs regularly (2-3x month). Fx is unstable, here, however (Ubuntu 14.04). More than latest on 10.04, which I was running until recently.

Once in a while I clean out all open tabs (like 2-3 times a month). Firefox is still not as stable as the latest version on 10.04, so there's definitely something going on. Some have said (here) that it's my hardware. The most likely suspect is that when I switched to Ubuntu 14.04 (and got a way less stable Fx and Thunderbird as a rewards) I also switched to AHCI. Maybe that's buggy on a Dell Vostro 200ST. So soon I am going to do a reinstall and switch AHCI off. The only other difference is that I now have a 1T hdd instead of 320G. However, since I have 8G memory I fail to see how a bad HDD / bad transfer to/from HDD can affect Fx in such a way that it crashes several times a week.

I just want to confirm this. Until a few months ago I ran Firefox on Ubuntu 10.04; worked great, rarely crashes and most of those rare crashes had to do with multimedia stuff (Flash, or Fx using VLC). On 14.04 I have nearly daily 1 or 2 crashes. Sometimes even when I don't interact with Firefox. Thunderbird has the same issue. Sometimes it's a middle click, sometimes it's something like selecting text, etc. And yes, I have 100+, sometimes 200+ tabs open in Firefox (Tree Style Tab keeps that very accessible and easy to work with, no idea why browsers keep insisting on horizontal tabs that become unreadable above 10 or so).

It looks to me like this hack didn't happen only on Sunday but is something that has been going on for a while: http://i.imgur.com/M41Z5o3.jpg and http://i.imgur.com/ctefDUd.jpg

Makes one wonder if this is not just smart spinning (Samsung?). Some quotes from Mac Rumors:

1. Some of the celebs have said they don't even use an iPhone 2. Doubtful celebs used one of the 500 passwords in the brute force script 3. Quite a few of the photos have proven to be from Android devices.

Add to that the statement that "old photos, have been deleted ages ago" and this sounds way more plausible:

This is not an iCloud hack, breach, or brute. This story has been spun to (my guess) take away from the big event September 9th. There isn't a single leak or a single hacker. These images originate from a small celebrity nude ring on the darknet. They typically require people to "buy-in" with an original image. Considering that celebrities almost all use an iPhone, putting iCloud hack in the headline is sure to grab attention and make some people actually believe it.

Didn't we see before (?) or around the iPhone 5s introduction suddenly a story about touch inaccuracy?

... to promote the iFap; the wearable device to be announced 9/9. Kidding aside, coincidence so close to an Apple event?

Not at the first mention of Ruby?
