Hot take

I think they’ll just improve their MagSafe cable capabilities to try and get customers to buy that instead of the regular usb-c cable. But the rumor always sounded like bs to me. It’s just too on the nose.

hahaha, I know. I, for one, never liked him, but I can see most people did for a long time.

He was over that threshold from day one of his existence.

His lies caught up to him. From his ridiculous tunnels, his crypto pump and dump scam, his robotaxis, to taking humanity to Mars. The lies just collapsed and revealed they were empty promises all along. Hell, even his solar panels were a trick, and the goddamn truck. Not to mention the FSD that will never really work as promised because the tech just isn’t there.

Shape Builder is my favorite tool in Illustrator. It is extremely useful

Over here you can just rip the bananas you want from the bunch. They don’t care about bunches, just the weight of the fruit.

Potato potato. South Korea is the most americanized country in Asia by far.

You can’t? Are fruits/produce not sold by weight over there?

That’s interesting. I personally have an iPhone and am old, so it checks out.

I was brought into the Apple ecosystem with the iPod, then the Mac, and getting an iPhone was a natural extension of those experiences. I got nothing against other systems like Windows or Android phones, nor I feel better than anybody because of my goddamn phone’s brand. Apple became fashionable or luxurious way after I became a regular user of their products.

Yes, BBM was popular with my american contacts back in Blackberry days. What a cumbersome goddamn messenger with the PIN and everything.

That was my favorite Whatsapp feature, not having to ‘add’ anyone. My friends’ users were just their phone numbers. If it weren’t for Meta buying it, it wouldn’t have the bad rep it has lately.

The OS of people’s phone isn’t relevant at all in my social circles. I don’t even know who’s using what. The whole green bubble stigma is an extremely American thing. Everyone else moved away from the default messages app at least a decade ago. I only get some 2FAs there.

I know for sure that I bought Whatspp in 2010. It was a paid app back them.

All the examples you gave sound like it’s not a problem just plugging it in 5 minutes or so. But if it makes you feel uncomfortable or self-conscious, a power bank might be the solution to your problems.

A multi-billionaire accusing others of unjust enrichment. Cynicism is getting out of hand
