I mean people have probably sued lawnmower companies because they were not warned to not to lift the mower with their hands when it was running. For every warning sign you see that you think it is stupidly obvious, there was probably someone who did exactly what was warned.

Comment Re:A Niche Device on a Great Update Cycle (Score 1) 24

No one is forcing you to upgrade your iPad every 2-3 years just like no one is forcing you to upgrade your iPhone every year. Some people want to upgrade; that is their choice. For some people, they need an additional iPad for their children/spouse etc. For some, their iPad met an unfortunate end. For most of us, we upgrade if and when we need.

No part of your statements says that DHS obtained a warrant to search and seize his phone. This where DHS is using SchrÃdinger's reasoning: According to DHS, they do not need a warrant because the search was "random" and he was not under any investigation. Yet they told Customs to look for certain things because he was under investigation and he was targeted for a search at the border. It turns out they lied and the search was not random. Such a search requires a warrant. Therefore the search was illegal.

Your person and luggage can be searched without a warrant; however, seizure is limited to specific things. Contraband, food, etc. There are conflicting federal court rulings as to whether devices can be searched without a warrant. In this case, DHS was arguing that they did not need a warrant because Turnick was not under investigation yet they knew to search him because he was under investigation.

Comment Re:8 GB of RAM (Score 1) 106

Every tech reviewer I read or watched says 8GB is fine for the Neo for the average consumer. For more intensive routine work like 4K video editing, you should get a different machine. Some reviewers would like more especially for future proofing but they remind everyone again of the current RAM situation. There is no "glazing" as much as just sensible recommendations.
