The iPhone does water resistance so good it's practically waterproof. Apple won't call it that because it technically can't offer the feature. But we've seen countless stories of iPhones surviving longer water immersion periods.  If you splash your iPhone with water or drop yours in the toilet or pool‚ it'll probably be fine. Icky‚ but fine. The newer the iPhone‚ the better its chances of surviving such an accident. Just wait for the iPhone to dry‚ and you'll be able to use it as before.  However‚ it turns out that you shouldn't try to speed up the drying process by placing the wet iPhone into a bowl or bag of rice. We've all been using rice wrong with iPhones for years. Apple is only telling us about it right now. Continue reading...

As a public figure‚ I’ve grown accustomed to dealing with all sorts of attention‚ both positive and negative. However‚ there’s one particular aspect of online culture that I find particularly grating: parody accounts. These accounts purport to be me‚ Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez‚ spouting off ridiculous statements and absurd policy proposals that are meant to be humorous. But let me tell you‚ there’s nothing funny about spreading misinformation and misrepresenting my views. We should just print the 34 trillion dollars and pay off our national debt.— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Press Release (parody) (@AOCpressTwo) February 14‚ 2024 Take‚ for example‚ the parody account that suggests we should simply print 34 trillion dollars to pay off the national debt. That’s not just impractical‚ it’s downright dangerous. As someone who takes fiscal responsibility seriously‚ I find it insulting that anyone would suggest such a reckless approach to our economic challenges. But here’s the kicker: there’s actually a funnier solution to our debt problem. Instead of printing money out of thin air‚ why don’t we just take out a massive loan from China to pay off the debt? I mean‚ come on‚ the irony writes itself! It’s like borrowing money from your neighbor to pay off your credit card bill – hilarious‚ right? Of course‚ I’m being facetious. The idea of borrowing more money to pay off our debt is absurd on its face. It’s the kind of proposal that could only come from someone who has a tenuous grasp on economic reality – like me. So let’s put an end to these parody accounts once and for all. Instead of spreading misinformation and promoting falsehoods‚ let’s focus on having real conversations about the issues that matter. Because when it comes to solving our nation’s humor problem‚ we can’t afford to let bad jokes and memes distract us from the serious work that needs to be done. The post AOC: Wrong! We should take out a $34 trillion loan from China to pay off the entire national debt appeared first on Genesius Times.
