Re: To Remove a Stuck Lens Filter, Try… Tapping it With Your Finger

SimpleTechGuru — Wed, 07 Nov 2018 03:00:16 -0000

This is crazy! Thank you so much. It worked after days of trying to muscle two stuck filters, I put them back on my lens and tapped and voila! Took maybe 30 seconds.

Re: Entrepreneurship, U2, Apple and Songs of the Free - Audiophile Review

great article Mark, but ya know that U2 didn't do this for "free." Apple surely paid for it. Possibly the answer is getting a sponsor (like Apple) to pay the costs. Maybe it's subsidized music and selling the high def music to those who can appreciate it

Re: Photoshopping Illegal? France Set to Regulate Airbrushed Pics

SimpleTechGuru — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 16:58:47 -0000

Enfin! While we do know that there will be some photoshopping, let's get some "truth in advertising" here in the U.S.! Trying to keep up with a lie is exhausting! The Dove beauty campaign has got it right!

Re: A Pre That Looks Like an iPhone? There’s An Ad For That [Video]

SimpleTechGuru — Sun, 23 Aug 2009 16:52:51 -0000

The only thing I see that's a ripoff is the hand close up scrolling across the screen. It doesn't say "there's an app for that" it says "move easily through multiple apps". It's showing that it is a little different.

Too bad they aren't emphasizing multi-tasking and opening multiple apps - palm pre's strong suit. Or made a big deal about the how the pre can slide.

I wonder if they wanted it to look so much like iPhone because they wanted people to see it as being "just like the iPhone" only with a different carrier. They could have made it more campy and played up their features in comparison while making the commercial look so much like it.

If their phone is as half-baked as their commercial idea, then I won't be getting one anytime soon.

Re: Why You Might Want To Set Your Twitter Account to Private

SimpleTechGuru — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 15:18:26 -0000

Good info for tweeps. But I'm curious as to why you would want to limit the people who can follow you.

People in this environment should follow the advice they would give their teenagers..."don't reveal personal info that you don't want other people to have."

If someone wants to write personal info, they should do it in a DM or another way... possibly use facebook for that.

You can always "block" people that are bothering you.

just wondered why people feel the need to screen and would want to limit themselves anyway.
