More lies from our resident "scientist".

Remember folks. This person claims to be a "scientist". And as we all know,
scientists ALWAYS begin by insulting the people they are trying to teach.

So please explain what you mean by "dies".  Show us a video of a "dead" app.
Does the calculator no longer work?  Clock? Camera? Notes? iTunes no longer
plays on-device MP3s? Voice memos? Files? Reminders?  Calendar?  Settings?
Photos? Are you saying none of these work?

Because you see, I AM a scientist and thus I demand proof.  I don't just
"believe" all the nonsense claims I read on the internet.  Particularly from
you, since your track record is zero.

BTW,I have an iPhone 5 that has been offline for many years.  Every app on it
still works.
