It Just Didn’t Work
As a follow up to my daughter’s iPhone 5 woes, we finally declared it a piece of junk and swapped upgrade dates among phones to get her a new one. We had been basically playing crazy games (unplug, put in airplane mode, plug, restart, turn back on, dance the Macarena) just to get it to charge above 50%.
It just didn’t work.
Feel free to ask me when I’ll be switching from Android. You’ll hear the laughter all the way from Brooklyn…

I Know Nothing
Tom Brady channels his inner Sargent Schultz.
Brady also said he was not aware of the rules that govern the inflation levels of footballs until after an Oct. 16, 2014, game against the New York Jets.
Yet in 2006:
Brady sought Manning’s help because he felt a change by the competition committee would be advantageous for quarterbacks since most have specific preferences for how they like the football.
Former Broncos quarterback Jake Plummer told AZCentral.com that Brady also reached out to him several years ago regarding the footballs. He signed a letter for Brady to show support for a rule change.

Tabloid Fun With Brady
I had high hopes for the NY Daily News and NY Post today after Brady’s suspension was upheld, but smashing a phone just isn’t as funny as talking about his balls.
The Daily News was pretty conventional with bad puns:
Front:
Back:
The NY Post ignored it on the back cover and had this strange hybrid Gisele/Tom front cover.
Can’t say I understand it, but if it sells papers…

How To Destroy Your Cell Phone
I’m not a Sen. Lindsey Graham fan, but after Trump yells out your cell phone number at a political stump speech, this is pretty amusing.
Though someone needs to point out to him that phone numbers aren’t tied to physical phones anymore…

Pluto
xkcd has Pluto nailed today:
And, What if the New Horizons Hits My Car? One of the best lines is:
How fast is 14 kilometers per second? Here’s my favorite comparison for putting that speed in perspective: If you were standing at one end of a football field and fired a gun toward the other end, right while New Horizons flew past you, the spacecraft would reach the far end zone before the bullet made it to the 10-yard line
If you aren’t following xkcd you have zero nerd credentials…

Grexit
A fascinating interview with Yanis Varoufakis, the former Greek Finance Minister, just before the latest agreement.
There was a moment when the President of the Eurogroup decided to move against us and effectively shut us out, and made it known that Greece was essentially on its way out of the Eurozone. … There is a convention that communiqués must be unanimous, and the President can’t just convene a meeting of the Eurozone and exclude a member state. And he said, “Oh I’m sure I can do that.” So I asked for a legal opinion. It created a bit of a kerfuffle. For about 5-10 minutes the meeting stopped, clerks, officials were talking to one another, on their phone, and eventually some official, some legal expert addressed me, and said the following words, that “Well, the Eurogroup does not exist in law, there is no treaty which has convened this group.”
So what we have is a non-existent group that has the greatest power to determine the lives of Europeans. It’s not answerable to anyone, given it doesn’t exist in law; no minutes are kept; and it’s confidential. So no citizen ever knows what is said within. … These are decisions of almost life and death, and no member has to answer to anybody.
