Is this the post where you explain how power surges can make processors marginally slower?
The cable is just a USB cable, the cable isn't what is frying. The cable is just delivering the nice electricity to you. They are also lighting on fire. They ARE a problem.

Ok smart fella, where does the authentication chip reside? In the lightning cable or the Wall Charger?
Aaaand I am a moron.
The bricks are still bad but Apple requiring the cable and not the brick to be chipped is stupid, I withdraw.
Nobody was really buying the fake bricks. Everyone has tons of spare bricks from the iOS devices accumulated over the years, people upgrading to the newer devices only found their cables obsolete and most of the time, it's just the cable alone that was being sold.
Apple doesn't have the consumer's interest in mind here, that shouldn't be a surprise for anyone but a zombie like w4rh3ad

Is there a disagreement that thunderbolt wasn't the right move? Afaik the battery isn't anything new but it will fully charge in a little over 2 hours. I also enjoy using the hdmi adapter instead of the razrs seperate hdmi output. Android was shitacular btw at changing view modes when hdmi was plugged in. That may be a moto ish more than android, but it wouldnt consistently give me the same output options on a given presentation day. Some days it would properly fit the tv screen others it would be off and overscan settings wouldnt fix it.
It just works on the apple, I plug it in, and it does everything. No 5 minutes of dicking around.
Apple isn't the best charging but clearly it shows the issue with the knock offs.
You guys are in a world of butt hurt if you watch Carmacks keynote this year, he rips in to android pretty hard.
well what if the damage is it makes the phone operate strangely and it becomes a source of great frustration? What if you're in the car and it hangs on you when you're trying to open Nav and you get in a wreck and die. Much more likely.
Hey bro, why does the guy in the mirror keep doing the same thing as me? Man that dude in the mirror is an asshole!
