                Was that today's NASA press conference announcement? I've been doing actual work today, didn't get to check it yet.

                    I just came in here to post this 😄

                    BBC article: http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-39034050?ocid=socialflow_facebook&ns_mchannel=social&ns_campaign=bbcnews&ns_source=facebook

                    Interesting stuff.

                            Old news. They've been saying that for months. Another carrier beat them too it and started offering that a month ago. We fly Norwegian so keep up with this. It's not that shocking since they are $200 from NYC to Rome already without this new "special deal." If you are shopping for the cheapest locations, it's not been that much more than this for a long time now.

                                  Although looks like Apple engineers made a mistake and the malicious malware was something internal.

                                    So the next time you're frustrated by the arcane processes of your health provider, remember—they're in place for everyone's protection.

                                    What things would that be? oh you mean the things that cause my data to be at risk? lol

                                            We can't be sure, but like @coliver said, it does sound like Apple.
