    http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/dffdeb908cc0c1a4e4300a601108775e.gif Florida is a wondrous land of palm trees, theme parks, beaches and exotic wildlife. It's also a place where elderly men go to car dealerships in the hopes of claiming prizes and then beat people with golf clubs when it turns out they didn't actually win anything. 83-year-old Linsey Owens is a perfect example of the latter, and his recent altercation with a Nissan dealership was captured on video for the entire world to see.

    http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/02aa644ddbcb83876875970c9f8bedf3.jpg If you want all of the wireless advantages afforded by Apple's new W1 wireless chip but the AirPods are a little too weird for your taste, your options are pretty limited. In fact, you only have one option: Powerbeats3 Wireless In-Ear Headphones. These are traditional wireless earbuds and not truly wireless earphones like Apple's AirPods, but they actually sound a little better than the AirPods thanks to fuller bass. They're a bit pricey at $199.99, but a limited-time Amazon sale has chopped $50 off that steep price tag, making the Powerbeats3 just $149.99. These hot new earphones weren't ev…

With an impressive channel lineup that includes stations like AMC, CNN, Comedy Central, ESPN, MTV, TNT and more, Ma Bell's new TV subscription service provides one of the most compelling TV deals available on the market today.

    http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/1a02d6457bb6e43eed5cd6fc1b3186c9.jpg In a post on Friday morning, I touched upon the increasingly common notion that iOS has gotten much more complex in recent years. Some users even believe that much of the platform's complexity comes at a cost, and that cost is a user experience that isn't as user-friendly as it once was. That's certainly open to debate and there are strong arguments on both sides of the fence, there are some things that are clear beyond a shadow of a doubt. Among them is the fact that iOS is packed so full of features and functionality that there's simply no way to remember everything. Don't worry, that's…

    http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/cd8152cea0690db2e4de28f28fee1e98.jpg Even Apple's harshest critics can generally agree that there are a few areas where Apple shines brighter than most companies. The first is customer service, which is one area where Apple is without question unrivaled. No other consumer electronics company in the world has a customer support staff in stores, on the phone and online that is as courteous and helpful as Apple's, and no other company has policies that are as pro-consumer. In fact, as terrific as Apple's policies are in general, Apple store reps often still bend the rules and go out of their way to make customers happy. Another…

A YouTube user by the name of "f0t0b0y" just uploaded evidence that Alexa's translation shortcomings can lead to some absolutely horrific — but also hilarious — results. Continue reading...

    http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/90d70779c4b55443cb936114528908ab.jpg I still can't get over how much I like Apple's new AirPods. I also can't get over how ridiculous I look when I wear them. The off-putting look of Apple's new truly wireless earbuds will theoretically become less offensive as they proliferate — but they can only proliferate if Apple manages to improve supply so that people can actually buy them. Order your AirPods online on Apple's website and they might not ship until sometime in February, according to Apple's current delivery estimates. If you want them sooner than that, you'll need to swoop in as soon as your local Apple store gets a ne…

    http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/c518cbfa9422413322044b5c0581b1fb.jpg American intelligence agencies have lined up their stories and currently agree that Putin’s Russia is responsible for the DNC hack. President-elect Donald Trump might dispute that, especially when such reports also suggest that Russia’s intentions were to help him win the presidential election. After a security company proved there’s a link between the malware used against the DNC and cyber attacks against the Ukrainian army, a new report reveals the actual reason why the NSA knows whenever Russia hacks the US. And yes, it’s as scary as you'd expect it to be. Continue reading... Trendi…
