It's funny that the reasons for loving and hating Apple are equally bad. They break down to: I like Apple because I don't want to janitor my poo poo vs, it frustrates me that it's hard to janitor my poo poo on Apple devices.

Just buy the thing that frustrates you less. It doesn't have to be this big normative judgement.

nerds center their entire identity around being good at a thing that apple destroys so they can't be little kings in their kingdoms anymore so they're frustrated. it's telling because most apple users couldn't give less a poo poo about windows or andoird or w/e but hooo boy will the opposite talk your ear off about how wrong & dumb you are.

Yeah and there's Apple nerds who will tell you how dumb you are for not getting Apple too

there's idiot fanboys for literally every single thing.

i dont see apple fanboys tripping over themselves to post in samsung announcement threads or walking around on the street showing android-havers fake androids to laugh at how dumb they are. it's because they don't give a poo poo

My S5 is waterproof; not giving a gently caress confirmed over here at least

How many phones has waterproofing actually saved really

the secret is apple's competitors invent new features that the iphone doesn't have and hammer away at it knowing that's the only way idiots will buy their garbage. they do this while quietly adopting things apple led the charge on (removable storage, battery) or sitting and stewing because apple patented it (touchID, force-touch)

remember all the andoirds coming out with gigantic screens and 4G and wouldn't stop yelling about how small the iphone was and it didn't have 4G while quietly knowing none of their customers would realize their phones got <6 hours battery life until it was too late? lol

Different machines have different use cases. Outfitting a command control room like that with Apple hardware would be pointlessly expensive furthermore none of apples products are designed for that type of usage. Theyre high quality appliance machines used for common personal computing. Hth

hey lemme just pop on the apple store to see if the macbook pros have been updated since i don't pay attention to poo poo like this

oh, it... down. wait, down? so, apple can't keep their store online when they switch poo poo up?

I feel like that is wrong. I dont think amazon has to do that?

they always do this before releasing new stuff

gotta get hype
