    Haha, oh that's me... I just give Kudos to anyone who appears on my feed and has put some effort in :) I usually run at lunch break at work, where most the people here just sit and gorge on pasties and not even get out of chair :(

    *** VPN Thread ***

    I use PIA and find it fine...and I can toggle between locations really easily as some downloads I do only allow a few before your IP is temp blocked. I however don't bother with a VPN connection with torrents as it slows things somewhat, but instead just use the SOCKS5 proxy they provide free...

    ** The Official WatchOS 5 thread **

    5.1.2 is out, enabling ECG, but only in US and a few other places. I had my watch ready and set to US in a hope of fooling it, but they also pinned it down to where the watch was purchased Actually quite annoyed as it was a feature that really swung me to upgrade :)

    Why don’t amazon require Card CVV Number? People can steal my card!!!

    I have a feeling it will prompt if you change or are from a new IP address also, could be wrong..... It's like PayPal, I can withdraw funds instantly unless I change IP then it's up to 24hr for security purposes.

    It did get a dunk, but only surface water... certainly not 2m for 30mins, we are talking 6 inches 2secs, that really makes it manufacture fault in my book Thank god for Applecare+

    ***** The Official iPhone X(S/SMax/R) Thread *****

    I know the XS Max is not meant to be water proof, but 30mins 2m depth IP68 gotta be worth something ?, nah In the keynote they showed some guy diving down to pickup phone from pool, they said no worries it will be fine So on holiday I had been snorkeling around with a £10 soft waterproof case...

    I think the band is meant to be slightly larger than glass, that stops it insta cracking when you drop it... they are all like it Apple QC / QA is so high, the odds of you having two bad phones are like winning the lottery
