So it's thinner once the case is on, obviously. Compare a regular iPad (1/2/3/4) with an iPad Air, with cases on, and see if you don't notice the difference.
That would be like thinking all liberals are like Michael Moore or all conservatives are like Rush Limbaugh.
Why are those two always equated? Is MM a racist hypocritical drug addicted hack that shills and lies for a living? No. You'd have to find some cokehead at Korean Central Television to someone on the left that's equivalent to Rush.
You're not reading my post....
That's just your problem - I am reading your post and responding to it.
No large tech company has gone beyond Apple
And the dissonance: so Apple is better than everybody else, yet Apple is the only company you're castigating for what every electronics company does: contract their manufacturing to Foxconn.
You're not responding to the problems with your argument.
We all agree that women are paid less, all studies show it.
Not if they're working the same positions with the same hours, they aren't.
Your original complaint was that Scotland couldn't start off without it's "share" of debt, remember? That Scotland would still be tied 18 different ways at the hip to what remained of the UK? And - again - there's the fact that Scotland wouldn't end up as another Greece or Spain because they have most of the UK's natural resources, chiefly the oil-rich North Sea.
Did you even read the article?!? No, the claimed goal of "equal pay for equal work" is still not with us.
Did you??? The whole damn point was that the pay is the same - or even more - when you're actually looking for equal pay for equal work, instead of equal pay regardless of position or education or hours worked on the job.
Before getting to articles, did you read the first and second sentences in a three sentence post?
The classic "wage gap" complaint has always been based on ignoring the "hours worked" gap. Men work most overtime hours, whereas women hold most part time jobs.
If you're a woman, would you expect to earn more at a full-time job than a man working part-time? Of course you would.
If you're a woman, would you expect to earn more than a man if you work overtime while he works 9 to 5? Of course you would.
Of course, now you have your "wage gap", which in reality is a "work gap".
So, did you read just one paragraph and miss out the rest of the article?
Did you? It's comparing equal pay for equal work and education.
False. Completely false. Why do you persist in this nonsense?
Women, in the same career field as a man, almost always makes less.
Not if she's working the same hours and has the same experience, she's not. Men get paid more because they work more.
Evidence. The classic "wage gap" complaint has always been based on ignoring the "hours worked" gap. Men work most overtime hours, whereas women hold most part time jobs. So in reality, the claimed goal of "equal pay for equal work" has been with us for quite some time.
Even among childless women there is a significant discrepancy in salaries for similar jobs.
Indeed - they make more money than their male colleagues.
skills-matched cohorts of male and female employees show a wage and career security discrepancy in favour of men in almost any study you care to mention
You mean an hours-worked discrepancy. Men put in the majority of overtime hours, and the vast majority of 60+ hour work weeks. The "76 cents on the dollar" canard is based on ignoring overtime and focusing on "skills" and "positions". If you're a woman, and you worked 10 hours more per week than a male colleague in the same position, you'd damn well expect to be paid more money as well.
but it conspicuously never flips around the other side
Another one gone

Another meme bites the dust
"Oh it's so unfair, that women don't have to register for the draft, in spite of the fact that volunteer female soldiers have been fighting for decades to even have the chance at front-line combat duties"
You realize you're swapping choice for responsibility, right? Lots of men chose to volunteer for the military before they were drafted, does that mean that millions weren't drafted into service?
There's a difference between men who believe in men's rights, and the Men's Rights Movement. Unfortunately it's the latter who are allowed to control the issues.
And then there's the SJW's who troll the shit out of MRA's for shits and giggles. Ask anyone who calls themselves an MRA and they'll tell you that fairness in custody and divorce court are in his top three issues.
No, you're doing it all wrong. What you need to do with facts that disagree with State Department propaganda is to lazily label them as conspriacy theories and call it a day.
Always draw your curves, then plot your reading.
