Face ID supporting just one face makes a lot of sense on the face of things (sorry), since unlike with Touch ID, users have only one face to use for their unlocking purposes. Touch ID ostensibly allows multiple fingers to be registered because you have quite a few digits of your own, and depending on how you’re using the device or in which pocket you keep it, one might be more convenient to use than another.

The issue is that people also often register the fingerprints of their significant others, or even kids, depending on how they use their device. The phone can store up to five fingerprints, which makes it relatively easy to keep a few of your own as well as those of a significant other on your device just in case.

A one phone, one face policy obviously won’t support that kind of arrangement: If you want to give your loved one access, you’ll need to smile for the camera, or share a backup passcode so they can get in that way. The passcode option is only marginally more inconvenient than a registered Touch ID fingerprint, of course, but it still makes a difference, especially if someone’s only very occasionally accessing your device and might not have committed a pin to muscle memory as a result.

I think this is more of an issue if Apple ends up moving Face ID across its product line, to devices like iPads that are much more often shared gadgets. Still, depending on how your use your phone, it might be another decided factor in whether you go with iPhone 8 or iPhone X – or, of course, neither.

  Why should they pick him over a dozen more senior men?”  “Because,” his father said, in a tone that suggested Tyrion was quite the simpleton, “if they do not vote as they are told, their Wall will melt before it sees another man.”  Yes, that would work. Tyrion hitched forward. “Janos Slynt is the wrong man, Father. We’d do better with the commander of the Shadow Tower. Or Eastwatch-by-the-Sea.”  “The commander of the Shadow Tower is a Mallister of Seagard. Eastwatch is held by an ironman.” Neither would serve his purposes, Lord Tywin’s tone said clear enough.  “Janos Slynt is a butcher’s son,”

Tyrion reminded his father forcefully. “You yourself told me”  “I recall what I told you. Castle Black is not Harrenhal, however. The Night’s Watch is not the king’s council. There is a tool for every task, and a task for every tool.”  Tyrion’s anger flashed. “Lord Janos is a hollow suit of armor who will sell himself to the highest bidder.”  “I count that a point in his favor. Who is like to bid higher than us?” He turned to Pycelle. “Send a raven. Write that King Joffrey was deeply saddened to hear of Lord Commander Mormont’s death, but regrets that he can spare no men just now, whilst so many rebels and . Suggest that matters might be quite different once the throne is secure... provided the king has full confidence in the leadership of the Watch. In closing, ask Marsh to pass along His Grace’s fondest regards to his faithful friend and servant... Lord Janos Slynt.”  “Yes, my lord.” Pycelle bobbed his withered head once more. “I shall write as the Hand commands. With great pleasure.”  I should have trimmed his head, not his beard, Tyrion reflected. And Slynt should have gone for a swim with his dear friend Allar Deem. At least he had not made the same foolish mistake with Symon Silver Tongue. See there, Father? he wanted to shout. See how fast I learn my lessons?
SAMWELL
Up in the loft a woman was giving birth noisily, while below a man lay dying by the fire. Samwell Tarly could not say which frightened him more.  They’d covered poor Barmen with a pile of furs and stoked the fire high, yet all he could say was, “I’m cold. Please. I’m so cold.” Sam was trying to feed him onion broth, but he could not swallow. The broth dribbled over his lips and down his chin as fast as Sam could spoon it in.  “That one’s dead.” Craster eyed the man with indifference as he worried at a sausage. “Be kinder to stick a knife in his chest than that spoon down his throat, you ask me.”  “I don’t recall as we did.” Giant was no more than five feet tall - his true name was Bedwyck - but a fierce little man for all that. “Slayer, did you ask Craster for his counsel?”  Sam cringed at the name, but shook his head. He filled another spoon, brought it to Barmen’s mouth, and tried to ease it between his lips.  “Food and fire,” Giant was saying, “that was all we asked of you. And you grudge us the food.”

Davos was reminded of Patchface, Princess Shireen’s lackwit fool. He had gone into the sea as well, and when he came out he was mad. Am I mad as well? He coughed into a gloved hand and said, “I swam beneath the chain and washed ashore on a spear of the merling king. I would have died there, if Shayala’s Dance had not come upon me.”  Salladhor Saan threw an arm around the captain’s shoulders. “This was well done, Khorane.

You will be having a fine reward, I am thinking. Meizo Mahr, be a good eunuch and take my friend Davos to the owner’s cabin.  Fetch him some hot wine with cloves, I am misliking the sound of that cough. Squeeze some lime in it as well. And bring white cheese and a bowl of those cracked green olives we counted earlier! Davos, I will join you soon, once I have bespoken our good captain. You will be forgiving me, I know. Do not eat all the olives, or I must be cross with you!”  Davos let the elder of the two eunuchs escort him to a large and lavishly furnished cabin at the stem of the ship. The carpets were deep, the windows stained glass, and any of the great leather chairs would have seated three of Davos quite comfortably. The cheese and olives arrived shortly, and a cup of steaming hot red wine. He held it between his hands and sipped it gratefully. The warmth felt soothing as it spread through his chest.  Salladhor Saan appeared not long after. “You must be forgiving me for the wine, my friend. These Pentoshi would drink their own water if it were purple.”  “It will help my chest,” said Davos jobs in macau. “Hot wine is better than a compress, my mother used to say.” 

“You shall be needing compresses as well, I am thinking. Sitting on a spear all this long time, oh my. How are you finding that excellent chair? He has fat cheeks, does he not?”  “Who?” asked Davos, between sips of hot wine.  “Illyrio Mopatis. A whale with whiskers, I am telling you truly. These chairs were built to his measure, though he is seldom bestirring himself from Pentos to sit in them. A fat man always sits comfortably, I am thinking, for he takes his pillow with him wherever he goes.”  “How is it you come by a Pentoshi ship?” asked Davos. “Have you gone pirate again, my lord?” He set his empty cup aside.  “Vile calumny. Who has suffered more from pirates than Salladhor Saan? I ask only what is due me. Much gold is owed, oh yes, but I am not without reason, so in place of coin I have taken a , very crisp. It bears the name and seal of Lord Alester Florent, the Hand of the King reenex.

I am made Lord of Blackwater Bay, and no vessel may be crossing my lordly waters without my lordly leave, no. And when these outlaws are trying to steal past me in the night to avoid my lawful duties and customs, why, they are no better than smugglers, so I am well within my rights to seize them.” The old pirate laughed. “I cut off no man’s fingers, though. What good are bits of fingers? The ships I am taking, the cargoes, a few ransoms, nothing unreasonable.” He gave Davos a sharp look. “You are unwell, my friend. That cough... and so thin, I am seeing your bones through your skin. And yet I am not seeing your little bag of fingerbones...”  Old habit made Davos reach for the leather pouch that was no longer there. “I lost it in the river.” My luck.  “The river was terrible,” Salladhor Saan said solemnly reenex.

'I had come out without a necktie; and there I was, spoutingmy lines to the three Graces, as DECOLLETE as a struttingturkey cock.'
The only other allusion to poetry or literature that nightwas a story I told him of a Mr. Thomas Wrightson, a Yorkshirebanker, and a fanatical Swedenborgian. Tommy Wrightson, whowas one of the most amiable and benevolent of men, transcript of Swedenborg's works.
His writing was a marvel of calligraphic art; he himself, acuriosity. Swedenborg was for him an avatar; but if he haddoubted of Tennyson's ultimate apotheosis, I think he wouldhave elected to seek him in 'the other place.' Anyhow, Mr human resources jobs.
Wrightson avowed to me that he repeated 'Locksley Hall' everymorning of his life before breakfast. This I told Tennyson.
His answer was a grunt; and in a voice from his boots, 'Ugh!
enough to make a dog sick!' I did my utmost to console himwith the assurance that, to the best of my belief, Mr.
Wrightson had once fallen through a skylight.
As illustrating the characters of the admired and hisadmirer, it may be related that the latter, wishing for thepoet's sign-manual, wrote and asked him for it. He addressedTennyson, whom he had never seen, as 'My dear Alfred.' Thereply, which he showed to me, was addressed 'My dear Tom.'
Chapter 36
MY stepfather, Mr. Ellice, having been in two Ministries -Lord Grey's in 1830, and Lord Melbourne's in 1834 - hadnecessarily a large parliamentary acquaintance; and as Icould always dine at his house in Arlington Street when Ipleased, I had constant opportunities of meeting most of theprominent Whig politicians, and many other eminent men of theday. One of the dinner parties remains fresh in my memory -not because of the distinguished men who happened to bethere, but because of the statesman whose name has sincebecome so familiar to the world.
Some important question was before the House in which Mr Hong Kong shopping.
Ellice was interested, and upon which he intended to speak.
This made him late for dinner, but he had sent word that hisson was to take his place, and the guests were not to wait.
When he came Lord John Russell greeted him with -'Well, Ellice, who's up?'

"I saw a little girl weeping，"said the Moon："she was weeping over the depravity of the world．She had re- ceived a most beautiful doll as a present．Oh，that was a glorious doll，so fair and delicate！She did not seem creat- ed for the sorrows of this world．But the brothers of the lit- tle girl，those great naughty boys，had set the doll high up in the branches of a tree，and had run．
 "The little girl could not reach up to the doll，and could not help her down，and that is why she was crying．
The doll must certainly have been crying too，for she stretched out her arms among the green branches，and looked quite mournful．Yes，these are the troubles of life of which the little girl had often heard tell．Alas，poor doll！It began to grow dark already；and night would soon come on！Was she to be left  all night long？No，the little maid could not make up her mind to that．'I'll stay with you，'she said，al- though she felt anything but happy in her mind．She could almost fancy distinctly saw little gnomes，with their high-crowned hats，sitting in the bushes；and farther back in the long walk，tall spectres appeared to be dancing．
They came nearer and nearer，and stretched out their hands towards the tree on which the doll sat；they laughed scorn- fully，and pointed at her with their fingers．Oh，how frightened the little maid was！'But if one has not done anything wrong Office Furniture，'she thought，'nothing evil can harm one．
I wonder if I have done anything wrong？'And she consid- ered．'Oh，yes！I laughed at the poor duck with the red rag on her leg；she limped along so funnily，I could not help laughing；but it's a sin to laugh at animal．'And she looked up at the doll．'Did you laugh at animals？'she asked；and it seemed as if the doll shook her head．"
 
TWENTY-THIRD EVENING
 
  "I will now give you a picture from Frankfort，"
said the Moon．"I especially noticed one RMB exchange rate building there．
It was not the house in which Goethe was born，nor the old council house，through whose greated windows peered the horns of the oxen that were roasted and given to the people when the Emperors were crowned．No，it was a pri－ vate house，plain in appearance，and paited green．It stood at the corner of the narrow Jews'Street．It was Roth－ schild's house．
