In 2007, a little over a month before the iPhone was scheduled to appear in stores, Mr. Jobs beckoned a handful of lieutenants into an office. For weeks, he had been carrying a prototype of the device in his pocket.

Mr. Jobs angrily held up his iPhone, angling it so everyone could see the dozens of tiny scratches marring its plastic screen, according to someone who attended the meeting. He then pulled his keys from his jeans.

People will carry this phone in their pocket, he said. People also carry their keys in their pocket. “I won’t sell a product that gets scratched,” he said tensely. The only solution was using unscratchable glass instead. “I want a glass screen, and I want it perfect in six weeks.”

dogs that have a (non-appearance-based) purpose are good dogs

mutts and mongrels are also good dogs

the purebred creatures aren't bad dogs -- i feel sad when i see them

there are no bad dogs, just bad humans

example: beagles

little shits are always up to no good!

uhm no beagles are one of the better breeds

they are single minded and more difficult than some breeds to train but they are friendly good dogs that generally get along with people but also can be good working dogs

maybe if you don't like animals that "get into trouble" (i.e. have a personality) stick to fish lol

when i was a lad we had a golden retriever and he was really cool

another relatively robust healthy breed with good temperament that would probably survive without humans just fine

at least after a few generations weed out the 1/5 with hip dysplasia :(
