  • I think that's a deep answer. Insecurities rarely create good situations.

    Since you're from New Zealand, do you own sheep? Have you put a toothbrush on the fence? Do you like Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement?

  • It's possible that was deliberate but they don't usually announce things they don't originally plan on releasing as that can damage their reputation. Possible that they truly couldn't meet deadlines or that they were purposely trying to create hype, hard to say without being upper management in Apple

  • I've been off apple products for over a decade now other than my 2012 macbook that I basically just use as an exclusively youtube player so I'm not too familiar with Apple Intelligence, it looks like it's their proprietary AI algorithm so in that case, it's less staggered release and more the fact that AI gets better the more it is interacted with.

  • A marketing prof once told me that a lot of phone companies, Apple in specific, split their projects up into several releases as a form of planned obsolescence. You're more likely to find this in matured and established brand names because they have the power of goodwill to retain their market share whereas an up and coming company relies on being innovative in the sense of being early adopters of new, sometimes not fully tested, technology.

    So for example, you see 3 iPhones being released in the span of 2 years. Those were likely 1 project released in a deliberately staggered manner so that "fanboys" "early movers" "brand loyal" (basically materialistic people who either don't understand or love being manipulated by corps) will pay for 1 project that a team worked on, 3 separate times.

  • Good choice garfield

    No survival plans?

    Reasonable choice

    The dragonballs from the manga/anime dragonball summon shenron the dragon when you collect them all and you're allowed to make 1 wish, even including bringing people back from the dead

  • I'm full of random questions

    If you could only eat 1 dish forever without worrying about vitamin intake or macros, what would it be?

    What would your plan be if you woke up tomorrow and everyone else on earth disappeared without a trace?

    What's a skill you want to learn and what's stopping you from learning it?

    What's the largest animal you think you could beat in a fight with just your hands?

    You stumble upon all the dragonballs, what is your wish?

    Does anybody else understand they need to make deep connections with people but their social battery has been dead for a while and can't put up with people's BS?

    Moving away from physical currency has been very detrimental to the homeless industry

    What's the worst tasting meats you've had that aren't chicken, beef, pork, or lamb?

    Does the "White Power Ranger" seem like an odd title?

    What's your favourite meat that isn't chicken, beef, pork, or lamb?

    Having the ability to lie and manipulate with no remorse will get you much further in this world than having morals and being correct
