He literally didn't invent anything, but forced other people to invent things for him to show off and take all the credit for. That might have something to do with it. Just a thought. And even after his death, people still act like he was the Jesus Christ of technology or something. It's cringe-worthy. --- Press X to jump. Press X again to double jump.

Solid Sonic 11/29/19 6:10:59 AM #9:	When it comes to Apple I think both sides see it as if youre not with us, youre against us.

TheWitchMorgana 11/29/19 6:27:12 AM #10:	i'm not a diehard for apple but people who say they're the same thing with a higher price tag are being kind of disingenuous. there isn't really very many laptops with the same build quality as a macbook for example. although i do think they are starting to lag behind in the phone department, the android flagships are starting to get more attractive --- and love comes back around again, it's a carousel, my friend <cite>TheWitchMorgana posted [p:930859771] in Why are pe...

Add in planned obsolescence and them doing everything they can, be it parts availability or how they design things, you can barely work on them yourself anymore. Which wouldn't be bad, if they actually fixed things instead of lying about what's actually wrong, so as to push new hardware or charge you ungodly amounts for a simple fix.
