Can Andy Ihnatko turn the iPhone 6 Plus into the mobile computer of his dreams? | Voices
I didn’t get the new iPhones early this time. I was perfectly fine with that … until Wednesday. It felt like it was Dec. 23 and I was heading out to the ice rink with my older brother’s old hand-me-down hockey skates again for a scrimmage and I absolutely knew that the big, heavy, square box under the tree was the new pair of state-of-the-art skates.

Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Eighteenth Amendment (Amendment XVIII) of the United States Constitution effectively established the prohibition of alcoholic beverages in the United States by declaring the production, transport and sale of (though not the consumption or private possession of) alcohol illegal. The separate Volstead Act set down methods of enforcing the Eighteenth Amendment, and defined which "intoxicating liquors" were prohibited, and which were excluded from prohibition (e.g., for medical and religious purposes). The Amendment was the first to set a time delay before it would take effect following ratification, and the first to set a time limit for its ratification by the states. Its ratification was certified on January 16, 1919, with the amendment taking effect on January 17, 1920.
Twenty-first Amendment to the United States Constitution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Twenty-first Amendment (Amendment XXI) to the United States Constitution repealed the Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which had mandated nationwide Prohibition on alcohol on January 17, 1920. The Twenty-first Amendment was ratified on December 5, 1933. It is unique among the 27 amendments of the U.S. Constitution for being the only one to repeal a previous amendment, and for being the only one to have been ratified by state ratifying conventions.

Earlier today, the CEO of Tag Heuer revealed to CNBC that Apple has hired one of the watch-makers sales directors.

A source directly familiar with the Apple hire confirmed that the Cupertino-based company hired Patrick Pruniaux late last month. Pruniaux is not just any “Sales Director:” he was the Vice President of Sales and Retail, a major loss for Tag Heuer and a significant hire for Apple in the run up the launch of the Apple smart watch in October.

Instead, the agency appears to have used access legally obtained in cooperation with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration to open a backdoor to the country’s cellular telephone network, enabling it to covertly record and store the “full-take audio” of every mobile call made to, from and within the Bahamas – and to replay those calls for up to a month.

Using data "taken from hundreds of various points from user responses...interpolated using NOAA's average annual snowfall days map," Trubetskoy made a map showing how much snow it typically takes to close schools in the U.S. and Canada. Notice that for much of the southern U.S., all it takes is "any snow" to shut schools down. For the Upper Midwest and Canada, two feet of snow are required for a closure.

PowerBook 100 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The PowerBook 100 was a portable subnotebook personal computer manufactured by Apple Computer and introduced on October 21, 1991, at the COMDEX computer expo in Las Vegas, Nevada.[4] Priced at US$2,300, the PowerBook 100 was the low-end model of the first three simultaneously released PowerBooks. Its CPU and overall speed closely resembled those of its predecessor, the Macintosh Portable. It had a Motorola 68000 16-megahertz (MHz) processor, 2-8 megabytes (MB) of memory, a 9-inch (23 cm) monochrome backlit liquid crystal display (LCD) with 640 × 400 pixel resolution, and the System 7.0.1 operating system. It did not have a built-in floppy disk drive and was noted for its unique compact design that placed a trackball pointing device in front of the keyboard for ease of use.
This is the Fitbit Force, a smarter fitness tracking watch | The Verge
Fitbit is set to release a new fitness tracking band called the Force. The new device will be positioned above the company's current fitness band, the Flex, and will feature a built-in altimeter that measures your present altitude. It'll use this information to give you more detailed statistics on your fitness regime through the addition of a "Floors" statistic that tells you how many flights of stairs you've traversed each day. From the promotional images we have obtained, the Force also appears to have a much-improved display over the Flex, and it's also partially water-resistant.

Kindle Fire HDX 7-inch review: Third time's the charm | TechHive
Amazon's Kindle Fire HDX is magnificently focused on content. When critics describe other tablets as “content focused,” the term is intended to be slightly demeaning, as though the device were good for little more than turning pages and watching videos. When applied to the HDX, however, the term is indicative of a design that targets a specific kind of tablet user and is eager to make them very, very happy.
