Oh, they make tons of money and will continue to do so for years, but unless they can find someone to replace Steve Jobs, they're going to start (and then keep) losing market share again, until they once more become a niche brand.

The VA went through the same thing a few years ago. What is worth noting, it's essentially impossible to be infected with HIV this way, and damn close enough to it with HepC.
So why all the urgency and scare? Simple. Liability. In other words, if you ARE a clinic with poor sterilization practices, your patients who acquire these infections BY OTHER MEANS can come back and sue you and say you did it... if you don't have proof you didn't.
That's the gist of it, plain and simple.

Posted by: Blue Hen at July 02, 2015 09:28 AM (Spluw)
To this day no one really knows. Apparently, seven of his patients acquired the virus from him, and there was enough analysis of the strains of virus to make it highly likely. There was one female patient who acquired it, and she was sorta the poster person for the cause for a while. She was like 19, and was said to be a virgin. I'm sure she's long dead now.
Anyhoo, the evidence, such as it is, suggests absolutely atrocious practices on the part of this dentist, and yes, it may have been intentional. So far as I know, he remains the only medical provider to have infected a patient (rather than the other way around, which happens somewhat rarely, but can and does happen).

Yesterday morning, picking up the pet food bowls, I managed somehow to snag my big toe in the cuff of my pantsleg. Maybe in another sixty years I'll learn how to walk.
I know, I know, wearing pants was my first mistake.
Falling down hard is an experience I've learned gets more dangerous as the decades pass, which lesson flashed through my mind, as I fell awkwardly, hitting on one knee, and crashing into a plastic dome pet house. To my astonishment, the pet house was soft enough that I did not injure my arm and did not even tear the pantsleg nor injure my knee!
But of course I couldn't get away clean. I must've really bent my toe, because it's still swollen and purple today. Really did a number on it. At least it's not broken; I can still walk. Would hate to stub it or have somebody step on it, though.
Pants should come with warning labels. I'm going to write my congressman about this. (Oh, wait, my congressman is a sensible person. I'll write your congressman.)

The continuity and handoff stuff is really good, and my Macbook is certainly better than any Microsoft laptop I've ever owned. Especially after the abortion that is Win8.
I'm done using anything Google, Windows Phones still suck, Amazon phones aren't ready for prime-time, and I don't want to dick with side-loading things. So in the end, the iPhone's are probably the least of the evils.
Maybe that will change with Windows 10, but Microsoft has shooting themselves in the dick in their corporate DNA, so I don't hold out a lot of hope.

Canquelles is struggling to fill small venues and doing so largely with her retinue. Sanders is filling huge freaking convention halls. The photos from Madison looked like a national nominating convention.
Since the GOP primary contains absolutely no one of interest and at this point is unlikely to ever do so, I am seriously figuring on crossover-voting for Sanders when the opportunity comes up. Let's just stop goddamned pretending that today's America is anything other than a nutty socialist mess.

Totally agree about Yosemite. I love my MacBook Air, though. We use PCs at work, and I've always found them to be great computers. Quick. No lag. But, at home, our PCs have been absolute slop. Even with the same amount of memory and hard drive space and all of that.
My Macbook Air doesn't overheat the way my other laptops have; it's much quieter, and obviously lighter. And, it is clearly superior in build.
But, yeah, I am not a huge fan of some of the Yosemite issues.

For the last few weeks I've had a touch of stomach flu or something that causes occasional diarrhea. So last Sunday I was walking the dog when I felt it coming on. We piled into the car in an attempt to make it home but it didn't seem likely. I saw a convenience store I was familiar with and I knew exactly where the bathroom is. I screeched to a halt, piled out, and ran. I got to the bathroom, open and no toilet! They were remodeling the bathroom. Desperately I asked if they had another and the ladies' room had been converted into a non-gender-specific.
Boy, opening that door and not seeing a toilet was the stuff of nightmares.

The U.S. Justice Department says in a court filing that transgender students must be allowed to use the restroom that corresponds with their gender identity.
The department says in a statement of interest filed Monday that failure to do so amounts to sex discrimination under Title IX of the U.S. Education Amendments of 1972
