    How to Back Up Your iPhone to the Cloud or a Hard Drive

    Really? We're sinking to the level of "what mac" magazine now are we? How is this news, important, useful, or even relevant? How many iPhone owners haven't seen this feature over the last, what, 4 years? Utterly pathetic, even worse than your "what's on my streaming service this month"...

    Living with Windows 10: The Best and Worst So Far

    The new "snap" is godawful, and the "assistance" it offers is just in the way. I don't need nor want help in adding a 2nd app to snap left or right, in fact if I snap an app left or right, that doesn't necessarily mean I want a 2nd snapped at all. F*** off with the "help". The borderless...

    How Obama's Hacking Laws Could Make You a Criminal

    Obama is clearly a half-wit. It's quite a big bloody relief that he is on his final term.

    Moto 360 Hands-on: A Smartwatch You'll Want to Wear

    Quick question, how can a circular display be measured in an X:Y co-ordinate fashion? "The 320 x 290-pixel LCD display" Confused muchly.

    How to Brick Your Car by Looking for Hidden Options

    This isn't "news", I've been "hacking" VAG group MMI units for years, enabling features that were disabled by default, or adding in features that needed additional hardware then coding in. I thought it was particularly common knowledge how to access the "green menu" from an MMI console, so I...

    How to Remove Trovi Search

    Can we have a "how to remove all the ads on Tom's Hardware" article? Or how's about "filter out the bulls**t sponsored 'articles' from the newsfeed on Tom's Hardware"?

    Super-Secure Blackphone Shipping by July

    So let me get this straight. all communication is encrypted and sent via Silent Circle's server farm? a) That's the blackberry method, and it wasn't the b-all and end-all of security, and b) surely "the powers that be" will just go to source rather than handset? Pointless phone is pointless...

    Governments Snooping on Our Phone Calls, Says Vodafone

    How many times can you miss-spell Vodafone in one small news report? Useless Tom's (or should I spell it "Thom's"?) strikes again.

    Adobe Adds 3D Printing Functions To Photoshop CC

    Users have been able to work with 3D objects in Photoshop CC for years? Photoshop CC is 7 months old! Seriously "Tom's", what exactly do you do when writing an article? Find the most misinformed "source" in the world and take their "story" verbatim?Also, what's going on with the retarded way...

    PS4 Controllers Will Work with Windows — Does It Matter?

    Weaned on console hits like Call of Duty? The PC was playing Call of Duty, Call of Duty: United Offensive, and Call of Duty 2 before most of today's generation of "gamers" were out of diapers.

    Microsoft Retiring Windows Live Messenger March 15th

    That would be lovely if it weren't for the fact that Skype's IM is fundamentally flawed and full of bugs. Case in point is the random way it tags incoming messages with a timestamp. I've (within the last 15 minutes) recieved a message that got stamped with a time over an hour out of date...
