Linked – It’s Now a Crime to Fly With a Note 7, So Please Return Them

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

If you plan to fly, you’ll have to leave your Note 7 at home. The FAA now states that passengers may not carry the phone “on their person, in carry-on baggage, in checked baggage, or as cargo.” If you manage to get it on a plane, you’ll be forced to power it down immediately. If the airline finds you have a Note 7 before you get on the plane, they may deny boarding you at all.

On recent flights I have heard many announcements about the Note 7, and that it’s basically illegal to turn them on, or connect them to power. Apparently, the FAA is now going one step further, and saying you can’t bring them on an airplane at all.

Yup, probably time to get a different phone if you own one.

    Recently, I’ve become painfully aware that my personal phone, an iPhone 3S, might be lagging a bit in the technology department. Actually, it’s not so much the technology lag as the number of things that kinda sorta work some of the time. For example, there was a recent occasion where my wife sent me a…

    Linked: Insurrectionists’ social media presence gives feds an easy way to ID them

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    On Wednesday, as we watched the invasion of the Capitol building play out, my first thought had everything to do with how little police and national guard presence there was. The reason that was my first thought was because we have watched this rally, and the ensuing violence, be planned on right in front of our faces on social media for the last few weeks. All you had to do was pay even a little bit of attention, and it was clear that there was a significant number of people who weren’t there to simply protest, but were there fully expecting this to be the start of a civil war. It was obvious enough that I knew it, just from an occasional look at Twitter or TikTok. I didn’t even have to go to the dark corners of the web to find it.

    For Valentine’s Day this year, the wife and I had one rule. No spending any money. For her, that meant using some of the crafty things we already had around the house to make something for me, above. For me, heretofore known as the crafting disabled, this provided something of a challenge. Since I love…
