Somebody in the Trump organization must have noticed something I pointed out last month:
The Trump phone, assuming it ever actually becomes available, will not sport a tall “T” on back of the case.
The executives also said that while the phone will retain its golden finish and the American flag on the back, the large T1 logo would be removed from the final phone.

I’m waiting for the complete box set.
Two electronics repair guys I enjoy watching on YouTube are British. Mend It Mark is in England, while Graham of Spare Time Repair is now in the U.S.
By chance, Graham and Mark each recently tackled the same model CD player. It’s instructive and entertaining to compare how they go about the process of troubleshooting. (No, I haven’t yet replaced the battery in my Pixel 4a phone.)
Graham’s player had previously been worked on by somebody else and, it seems, modified. It couldn’t be fixed.
Mark’s player had a different set of problems. It was restored to working order.
The first time I ever heard about the potential for lasers working over fiber optic cables was on The 21st Century, a long-lost CBS-TV series hosted by Walter Cronkite. Another on-target prediction was every home office having a computerized communications console for remote work.
Is Amazon Web Services developing its own, presumably proprietary, high-density fiber optic cable packages? I have my doubts, but that’s what is said in this Marketplace report.
It seems more likely that AWS is doing what Meta is doing, and working with Corning’s new fiber optic products.
Maybe this has a fuller explanation of what AWS is doing. (Full disclosure: I pay AWS $0.15/month to store some files.)
