people don't cry, but your eyes can water a lot.

Yeah it's not actually crying. Onions release chemicals, when the inside is exposed, that irritate the human eye. In large doses, it can cause severe pain and your eyes are trying to flush that stuff out.

I didn't believe it happened until I had used an automatic dicer to chop a shallot. When I opened the container, my eyes were on fire, felt like I squeezed hot pepper into my eyes.

I was replying to this

No I understand, Im validating your statement. Im pretty sure they stated that it was called iPhone X in commemoration of 10 years of iPhone.

You can see the kid even wearing a rig for the noose, don't get your thong in a twist.

Also nice clickbait title

but where the forget is 9.

I mean it might still come out. The 8 is coming out alongside the X. Their next regular lineup might still be the 9. The X could just be the X (even though it is the roman numeral for 10), and we might see an actualy iPhone 10 a couple years from now.

To be fair this would technically be the iPhone 10 since the first iPhone was released in 2007

That's exactly why its X/10

So yeah, unless the 10 is super advanced and knows how my facial hair grows on a weekly basis, I'm not convinced. Im still not convinced about the finger print lock.

Touch ID, or really just fingerprint biometrics in general, is probably the safest and fastest way to secure and unlock your device. Touch ID (and so will face ID) is even used in first and third party software for authentication. Apple Pay auths through Touch ID. When I log in or buy stuff from Amazon, I use Touch ID to auth. When I access my bank account on my phone, I use Touch ID. The auth process is so fast and easy, there's no reason to use a pin or password. You can't unlock your phone while you're still pulling it out with a regular pin. It's that fast and easy.

If you need to make payments on a phone, you don’t need to have it.

Sorry to tell you but subscription based payments arent leaving any time soon

don't follow the herd-- that's why most people are in debt.

or maybe don't be stupid???

who wants to pay for a phone that's over 1000 when you can just buy 2 computers for that with much more power :D

because I can't fit a tower in my loving pocket or make cellular calls from it

Most people buy into a contract that lets them pay far less to stick with that phone for a few years. If you don't want to do that, Apple actually has their own credit plan so you can pay off the phone incrementally.
