PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh police say an intruder entered a woman's home and groped her in the shower before she was able to scare him away.

Police say the woman's front door was unlocked when the incident occurred about 8:30 p.m. Thursday at a residence on the South Side, a working class neighborhood that has been redeveloped with numerous bars, restaurants and clubs.

The man didn't have a weapon, but police say he was wearing a hooded sweat shirt which he used to cover his face when he stepped into the shower with the 23-year-old woman and grabbed her from behind.

Police believe the suspect is a white man in his early 20s, but they've yet to identify a suspect or arrest anyone.

I like my door locked if I'm inside. I really don't want to deal with somebody randomly walking in. Call me paranoid, but considering it is so easy to lock while I close the door it isn't like I'm going out-of-my way for a false sense of security.

Why is that so weird to you?

My door is locked... ALWAYS. Even when I was living in the countryside of New York State, I had my door locked and bolted.

Our doors are only locked when we are sleeping or when everyone is away.

When it is necessary to lock your doors when your in your own house, think about moving to a friendlier neighborhood. (it should not be necessary to lock your doors!)

how about when its not necessary, but you do it anyways? we've always locked our doors when we dont need them open, and we live in a very safe town

Logic prevails again! :D

    • Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb by Karthik Mudaliar Image via Apple Apple is reportedly trying to get a clearance from the Trump administration to buy memory from ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) to get some relief from soaring DRAM prices. As per a report by the Financial Times, Apple approached the Commerce Department more than a month ago and also spoke to other officials and allies in Washington. For starters, CXMT is a company that's already been placed on the Pentagon's list of Chinese military companies. The Chinese company is the country's top DRAM maker. For Apple, the timing is certainly awkward but not surprising. Tim Cook had recently warned that Apple would have to raise prices because AI companies are buying up large amounts of memory for data centers, and just like that, Apple raised MacBook and iPad prices. Micron also recently revealed that customers have committed billions of dollars to secure memory supply years in advance, which shows us how aggressive securing infrastructure has become. This gives suppliers such as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron more leverage, while pushing hardware makers to look for alternatives. CXMT is one of those alternatives, but not the simplest one. Apple has spent many years trying to diversify parts of its supply chain away from China, especially for final assembly, while still depending heavily on Chinese manufacturing and suppliers. Even domestic brands from China are moving towards CXMT and YMTC instead of relying on Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix. For Apple, though, it would invite more scrutiny than local Chinese companies. For now, this is more like a lobbying effort rather than a confirmed supply deal. There's no official statement from either of the parties. What is clearer, though, is the pressure behind such a request. AI demand has certainly made hardware a bottleneck, and companies are trying everything they can to bring things back to normal, even if that means making politically sensitive choices.

    • I did test it a month or so back, but ... the results I expect to be on the first page are not there.
    • Neowin is saying these are good prices? Thats crazy. As others have said they are just ######. Time for big tech to bring down the prices for real not this fake crap.
    • The iFlyTek AINote 2 is among the thinnest E-Ink tablets. It has an EMR stylus, a built-in fingerprint reader, and plenty of built-in AI features. You had me until "and plenty of built-in AI features." That and any company that still does the iProduct naming trope is an immediate pass. It suggests the company isn't very imaginative or creative and is trying to piggyback off another company's success. Extremely lame. Also kind of expensive. Better choices at lower prices out there.
    • These are not "great" prices... just "less awful". Apparently "Those who forget the past are doomed to pay higher prices and think they've won."
