honestly i haven't seen a good stymie post in a while and that ones not bad. making a comeback perhaps.

also reminder that woz left apple after getting his IPO money and then relentlessly attacked apple in the media when it became popular again. he also had a hand in making the two biggest anti-Jobs works of fiction, the Walter Isaccson book and Steve Jobs the movie, both of which are condemned by any non-butthurt person who worked with Steve.

in true "those who can, do. those who can't, teach" fashion wozniak become a grade 5 computer teacher. and although wozniak claims he just wants to "teach kids and tinker with computers" he's nevertheless tried unsuccessfully to create other companies. he created CL9, a TV remote control company that had slow sales and was forced to liquidate after 1 year. the always humble woz also named a company after himself, WOZ, or Wheels of Zeus, made GPS-equiped crap but also closed down. finally he made Acquirer Technology which became Jazz Semiconductor and face planted in value before merging with a loving israeli company or something

Wozniak is a sack of poo poo. He disses Apple most of the time just because his services are no longer required actually his services were never required after his first computer. He had no input into the macintosh or iphones or ipads or imacs and he is an rear end in a top hat who basically didn't like jobs making Apple the billion dollar company. He wishes it was him but its not and when jobs left in the 80's this sack of poo poo if he was a loyal friend he would have left with jobs and said if he goes i go but he didn't and stayed doing gently caress all. All you lovers of his are fooled by him listen to his comments most of the time and he always rewrites history and slams Apple hell he even got in bed with Android. It's funny because he still gets paid by Apple and he still has the nerve to talk poo poo about them. gently caress him Apple is Jobs company and this fucker just got lucky he met him and in the process made a couple of mother boards and his the first lovely computer ironically which was priced at $666 funny because he's a Freemason who worship satan. He tries to be hip wearing lovely assed watches which no one could care less about HAHA what a jealous fucker.

remember when gates did reddit secret santa and he got someone "a $1 million donation to [blah] foundation in your name" but of course he posed for a photo with the cheque and posted it publicly on reddit so obviously everyone knew RippedOffRedditor69 didn't really donate that monday themselves.

in short gate gave himself the gift of more self-promotion.

Woz was a competent electrical engineer, perhaps even a slightly clever one, but that's it.

And now that he grows more bitter & butthurt by the day, it's extra hilarious to watch nerds fawn over him.

I think on the "not being dead an account of totally treatable cancer" scale Woz still wins by a landslide
