Swift is accomplishing a lot of what BitC set out to do.
You have to learn to fear and respect that complexity.

Good for Microsoft. Cloud customers should own and control their own data, including when the government seizes it. https://nitter.catsarch.com/t.co/1l6X31hv3Y

Belkin has a decent one for the 6+ but it’s steep with lighter devices in it (it rocks backwards). I’m going to try Twelve South’s HiRise.
It is surprisingly hard to find a good iPhone dock for desk use. Apple’s is at too steep an angle for me. Any recommendations?
I’m guessing that the iPhone dock with a fake iPhone in the product photos isn’t a winner. amazon.ca/dp/B012HW7FHO
