That’s a cell phone!

Nah, he threw it on the ground. DUH!

That’s pretty neat.

Thankya! I subbed to over half of those just now.

He specifically said he wants less politics, not politics he agrees with. He hasn’t given you any reason to attack him, but you did so anyways.

I started using Sync, despite disagreeing with their privacy policy, just so I can block entire instances, and use filter words. I’ve added Musk, Trump, Politics, Twitter, and a bunch of other filter words to my block list, then filtered hexbear completely, and a couple of other problematic, one-dimensional instances, and Lemmy is a lot more enjoyable now. It’s okay reading about those subjects occasionally, but my feed was like 95% filled with those topics. Some of them aren’t even topics that would normally bother me, but it was like every single post.

Woz himself has said as much. The guy has more money than he’ll ever be able to spend. He’s fine.

Android was a poor comparison when iPhone first released. I had one of them. It was neat because it was new, but realistically it was a piece of shit compared to the iPhone. I’m no Apple fan boy, but they genuinely changed the world in many ways

I’m still waiting for something good coming out of his pocket money spendings for good causes.

The eradication of polio isn’t good enough for you?

Now they do, but the iPhone was revolutionary when it was released. Apple literally changed the world with their invention.

He did not deny her until the day he died. She even lived with him during highschool, and he named a computer after her, even though he made up a bogus acronym to pretend that wasn’t his motivation.

Woz was worth $500m at one point and is worth $100m today. It’s not like he was cut out of the game, he just wasn’t interested in money or success the way Jobs was. Without Jobs drive for success, Woz would never have shared his inventions with anyone, it was just a private hobby to him.

Steve was definitely an asshole, but there are plenty of valid criticisms to levy at him, you don’t need to misrepresent anything.

He was a visionary who was able to see the applicability of new technology, and was able to force his will for better than the standard upon people who would otherwise have thought the improvements impossible. The guy was a fucking jerk, that’s true, but he also completely changed the world with his vision. To say he was nothing more than a Musk, or a thief, is to be disingenuous.

Not for you!*

*Since you’ll be unemployed

What is this, the billionaires club? Ain’t nobody got time for tests!

I always rush to finish first when I learn someone else is working on the same files. Ain’t nobody got time to figure out how to merge your shit with my beautiful, perfect, new feature.

Yeah it’s weird how complacent about data everyone is. I was buying a book a couple of weeks ago and they asked for my email address. I said “no thanks” and the cashier started typing “nothanks” and then blinked and was like “wa… what?”. I told them I’m not interested in sharing my email address to buy a book, and their brain melted. They were like “but you have to!” to which I replied “no, I really don’t”. They had to call a manager over because they didn’t even know how to complete a transaction without an email address.

Your phone contains germs and bacteria from everything you’ve touched throughout the day, and every surface you have placed it on. You touch things and then touch your phone all day long. You wash your hands before you eat to get rid of all those germs, but if you handle your phone after that, then you might as well not wash your hands.

Your phone is definitely not sanitary, unless you sanitize it.

I went to a restaurant once that wanted me to install their app to see the menu. I just laughed at them, left, and never went back. The sad part about that is that the kids working there don’t understand why that would bother anyone and view me as a crotchety old man who yells at clouds. .

I seriously doubt that a webserver running 24/7 has less environmental impact than printing 50 pieces of paper one time.
