@WarnerCrocker It is more likely that Trump will see jail time from contempt of court than from the charges. This is because it is typical for these charges that someone who is a 1st time offender to not see jail time. This is the result from Trump not being prosecuted in the past.

The judge understands that $1,000 incident doesn't mean much to Trump. There is possible jail time per gag order violation and alternatives, such as someone have to review every social media post before Trump posts.

@WarnerCrocker My mother had a Steinway baby grand. Amazed that my grandparents could afford it and moving it every time they moved.

My brother inherited the piano. One time it was moved into the 3rd floor of a Brooklyn building. This involved removing the large window of the apt and using pulleys to get the piano up to the 3rd floor.

Best of luck with your move.

@WarnerCrocker @jamesthomson and since this happened to so many Mac experts we know it isn’t “You are holding it wrong”. I wonder if I was saved because when this happened to all of you I was involved in social activities that kept me off my devices, a rare occurrence.

@WarnerCrocker @jamesthomson After reading so many posts on this subject I’m thankful to have dodged this bullet.

@WarnerCrocker I'm sure this article is missing lots of information. But I have questions.

1) What are “Super apps”?

2) Apple should allow for the cloud-streaming apps. The reasons not to approve them based on security is questionable.

3) There are cross-platform messaging apps, they are the rage outside of the US. I think they may be talking about interoperability of Messages with other messaging platforms beyond SMS.

Of course I can be wrong about everything. I’ll just go make some popcorn

@appleinsider @WarnerCrocker Someone with an excavator probably just went wild.

@GossiTheDog We had this is the old days.

The story of the person who used a lawn mower to trim their hedges, hurt themselves, and then successfully sued the maker of the lawn mower. It isn't true.

In the 1980s a reporter investigated the story after a major insurance company put this story a full page newspaper ad to push tort reform.

There was no source for the story, no proof. It was a lie

The insurance company almost lost its license.

We've always had fake stories that spread.

@w7voa I'm not sure that even covers the cost of charging people between cc processing fees and the cost to change their infrastructure. So I agree that there are other reasons for the fee, such as getting your cc info.

@briankrebs $10,000 fines every time a driverless car blocks the way.
