I don’t normally read the comments, but these ones give me hope. I know we are all seeing a lot of hate toward our Somali friends and neighbors, but I wanted to share these.

I hope they bring a smile to your face like they did mine.

The Airbus A320 mess is happening while I'm on vacation means I get to learn what happened and how they fix it later, without needing to figure it out in real time and report on it.

Good news is it is mostly software fixes. For those that need hardware it could be rough.

IMPORTANT: Stop calling the troops in LA National Guard Troops. They are not. When Trump activated them against the wishes of the Gov they became FEDERAL troops… like the 82nd airborne with no Law enforcement power! Don’t let them confuse you!

Freedom demands vigilance, then and now.

Then we approached people we knew in the community of Apple device administrators and asked them to participate in the survey.
