@georgia maybe in 100 years we will get a suitably featureful linux distribution working on the M1 Macbook

@sun the whole doubling the time estimate thing is super dickish imo

@georgia @sun this has been Apples M.O for years.

I was a wee lad when the first iPad came out, everyone acted crazy over it.

Sure, the first touch screen smart phone was pretty innovative and changed the game for normie computing forever, but after the first few releases it was obvious that every model was slightly tweaked with additional features the sheep would buy without hesitation.

That was just for the iPhone. There was no iPad yet. So imagine my disbelief when Apple essentially re-releases the iPhone in a bigger format, and without a camera when the iPhones out at the time already had cameras.

What the the sheep do? Immediately purchased the first iPad after the iPhone, then waited a year for the new iPad model to come with a camera before purchasing.

I understand the novelty with some of their hardware like the M1s (I would personally love to get my hands on a 2015 MacBook), but the airpods and the last decade of design decisions has ensured that I will never purchase an Apple device in my lifetime.

@subnetter @georgia @sun gigachad take. there is no argument to be had. Apple is Apple and Apple sucks. never buy Apple, technical aspects dont matter, they're fucking gay dawg.

@subnetter @sun it asahi doubling the time estimate not apple, apple sucks though youre right. I really want their battery life and lack of IME though
