> During a visit to the United States for the filming of the documentary The Man Who Saved the World, Petrov toured the Minuteman Missile National Historic Site in May 2007 and commented, "I would never have imagined being able to visit one of the enemy's securest sites."

That's actually really cool. Must've been really surreal.

9to5Google pointed out that the Apple ad is a near exact copy of this LG ad from 2008: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcUAQ2i5Tfo

The (accidental?) plagiarism of the ad is nearly as bad as the vibe.

What an untasteful advert.

I hope India does the same. The number of scams and fake businesses proliferating via WhatsApp, targeting the most vulnerable is totally out of control. Its like half my day is spent blocking spammers and scammers.

5 years in jail for editing some Pokemon save files? This seems like a parody of sort.

Taxi is not the main way to leave airports in large part of the world.

I went digging out of curiosity, and it seems you are correct. According to this article [1], around 80 of the top 100 airports have rapid transit connections.

Oh yes, it's there, thanks. I wonder when they added it...

Edit: Waaait a bit. I have it on iOS and I have it on some laptop where whatsapp desktop is an old version.

I can't find it on my desktop where their desktop app is the latest and greatest...

They probably "improved my whatsapp experience".

Edit 2: besides, that just doesn't download the photos, I think? They still take half the screen that could be used for displaying more text...

The option to disable auto download has been there since day 1.
