There were not 600,000 preorders. You can tell by the fact that they announced 600,000 preorders. If there actually had been they'd have announced "more than a million preorders." That's how it works.

In his new role his main job will be dealing with government leaders around the world, including Trump (assuming he hasn't aspirated a Big Mac and fries by then).

I can't wait to get my refund from the companies that charged me for the tariffs, he said sarcastically.

What does physics have to do with deciding to use them?

I know I do.

Chips are tested after manufacture. A large number of them have tiny flaws in one or more areas, but work perfectly otherwise. The ones that are flawless go in the highest-end models, the others have the flawed area disabled and go in the lower-end models. Some are just rejected outright.

Exactly! Adding a middleman always lowers the price. Everyone knows that!

Do you mean like he could have added air conditioning?

Trump knows all about Key Money, and he wants his taste. He has used the term publicly, as if it were a normal thing rather than the illegal practice that it is.

This has nothing to do with Xcode. This is the iPhone app. And now it's #1.

A human using a computer can still beat a computer at chess.

It stops two or three per day for me. So far, no legitimate callers (but not in my contacts) have complained or even mentioned it, which surprises me a bit. Missing a call I wanted to get was my only hesitation for turning it on, but so far it hasn't been an issue.

Went to my local Amazon Fresh to pick up a package. Sign on the door said Feb 1 closing date. The place was mobbed. Tons of people buying tons of groceries.

There must have been a discount or something, though I didn't see any signs about it. Whatever it was, it wasn't worth dealing with the crowds. I just grabbed my package and left. It was actually difficult to find a path to the door.

I'm in the same situation with Chase. I have two "native" Chase cards and an Amazon. It makes paying them easy, but not as easy as the Apple Card does. I'm assuming that will stay the same, as will the HYSA, which is also very easy to use, and cash back from the Card (actual cash (not points), paid daily) gets automatically swept into it.
