Apple slows down older iPhones

-
I'm a little bit late writing about the Apple slowdown hype, but I still wanted to give you my thoughts before too much time goes by.
For someone that has owned an iPhone 3GS and 5S in the past, I can confirm that I am NOT an Apple fanboy by any means. I definitely wouldn't stand outside or EVER camp outside an Apple store waiting to be the first to get a new product in hand. After using the 5S for about 3 years I was like "nope, I've had enough!" The Apple economy was pretty closed, so that's one of the reasons I returned back to Android in the first place.
Two months ago CNET reported that Apple had released an update that slows down older iPhone models. It came to me as no surprise, and pretty much BS on Apple. The reason we update software on our devices is to provide fixes for bugs, enhance security and often times add efficient new phone features. The thing is, it's true that iPhones are time-tested and widely accepted technology by many, but that doesn't mean much when your iPhone shuts down automatically around 30% of its battery charge.
The advice to everyone with iPhones is to make sure to manually update the phones instead of doing it automatically. The newest Apple updates that were released for older phones just slow down the software. So in effect, the Apple update ADDS inefficiency, pushes frustrated customers away from phones (purchased in some cases only one year prior) and smugly suck even more Apple profits from their wallets when they opt to buy into a newer iPhone. Insanity, especially when we're looking at phones purchased a year ago. In fact, I'm not a fan of the new iPhone X. It just looks too big and expensive! I'd never pay $1000 out-of-pocket for the X. Hell, it's really no big surprise that even loyal "Apple campers" are pretty upset with Apple's new decisions.
At some point, who can blame anyone burned by Apple from considering, if not actually switching to Google's Android or another platform with an open source OS everyone can use?

A Time to Live and A Time to Remember

It was a great weekend visiting over at my friends place that lives thirty-five minutes of outside of Atlanta, so basically he's lives in the suburbs just like I do expect he lives close were allot of stripped malls and shopping centers that right next to him about ten minutes away from his house. I went to see a movie over at AMC to watch, Our Idiot Brother by Paul Rudd one of my favorite Comedic-Actors I have to say its been while since I seen a good Comedy I like it allot, I wasn't bad at all me and my friend enjoyed allot. (a review coming very soon) Afterwords we hanged out went to have Taco Bells, it was OK, I thought could have had something better I was thinking Moe's Southwest grill than we had a dietary smoothie which wash away the Taco I had in Taco Bell...Last time I ever go there to eat. *laughing*  Then we walked all the way to Barnes & Nobles just to look around the shore to see what releases that out on sale nothing came to me ...

Ingles Interview and Blog Job...

-
So far I had my interview since last week,  I tell you job search is so not fun!  Believe me for anyone that's looking for employment out in this world,  Its a shame that we have to be put into this shamefu l ugly world!!  Oh god why??!  I wonder why it has to be so tough on anyone that's looking for employment right now.  It just felt that its troublesome to just to look for a job,  If I had to wonder job,  I'd be blogging! just what I'm doing right now,  unfornately I don't get many readers in my blog to get myself paid for this kind of crap,  But unfornately this shit does pay me since I don't have the maximum readership to be reaching any popularity success to the top of the charts of the net (which I do not!!).  So that's the sad part if I wanted to keep writing as a blogger.  But I have to make my ends meet...do I now? Wednesday Morning, I was over at a Super market for my first interview in months in seeking a new ...

I have played the first game several times but have not gotten around to beating the game and many times sitting around in front of my PC I still haven't reached the end of the game.  I'm still stuck in the middle of a level inside the factory. Now will be a good time to play BGE1 before the second release comes out...only if I can get my graphic card to work again with the game. Then everything will be great.  I'm very stoked to get my hands on a copy pretty soon when a pre-order is announced. My thoughts on t...
