"Apple users" is a bit harsh, the fans can definitely get this culty but it's not like the functional-but-overpriced hardware is literal shit. Someone else said NFT "investors", I'd go for fashion people who spend hundreds on a sweatshop-produced t-shirt which just has the logo of the company that's ripping them off on it (which to be fair does describe some people's relationship with Apple!)
Every whale in a P2W game.
So what you're saying is that low level workers are socialised to feel like lesser (even though the pandemic really proved who actually matters in the scheme of the whole job system) and also feel trapped by the design of the employment system, under capitalism and angrily try to take some ground back by having just one nice thing, bought with the feeling of pride, but are actually accidentally buying into the system that oppresses them.
Bluechecks
that's one of the arguments I saw in favour of sync
I wish people didn't care what technology other people choose to buy.
I want to break free off APPLE and I can’t because I love this app called CLIPS.
It’s a video editing app that allows me to hold down the button and take a few seconds of video. Lift finger, video stops recording. Hold button down again and the next clip connects to previous. And so on. Also a ton of great filters.
Addicted to it.
Please show me the android alternative.
Not kidding. I can stop being a shit eater for this.
Apple user here. Can confirm. My excuse is that Apple knows its shit and I am at the period of my life where just thinking about SUDO gives me allergy. So, as long as I do not have to deal with that shit, I am OK paying for this shit. Hell, I am paying for ChatGPT so that it does internet search for me and summarizes the results for me. My time is more valuable for me than dealing with that shit.
Not suggesting that my way is right way. Many people do like to play with that shit, customize it, fine tune. Those are not users for apple ecosystem. To each their own shit. It is nice to have a choice of shit.
People who smoke.
Ah shit here we go again...
Tell me how you really feel
You sound like a poor piece of shit /sarcasm
Haha le apple bad
Coming from Windows for decades, my M1 Mac is the most stable, battery sipping machine I've ever had. Shrug...
So true!
I am a kind of laptop addict. I sell and purchase laptops every 6 months or so. I've tried everything on the Windows side, and have had the most beautiful machines in my possession, but they all had some critical flaw that made me look at my work laptop (Macbook Pro M1) and think... "I get it"
They currently have a monopoly on the best computing experience, that's why it costs so much. The developer experience is 10 times better than Windows, but it's doesn't suffer the lack of software support that Linux does. It has the best battery life BY FAR of any laptop, which is important to people like myself who find themselves working on trains and planes. And the overall build quality and performance is so good that it can be resold 5 years later for 75% of the original price.
