Do we reference broken arms in lemmy or does that stay at the old place?
“Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…“ — That’s how you get Nazi sympathizer. For all the research you did it’s amazing you couldn’t find the one thing that was beyond you. Hope that helps.
I came into this expecting a thread full of Stanley Cup champion, elite athlete at the highest level, and prime example of perfected male physique, Phil Kessel, but haven’t seen a single mention of him. So I’ll start it.
I would have guessed it stood for chocolate
After 10,000 years I’m free! It’s time to conquer Earth!
I mean in fairness it is Saturday. He’s probably phoning it in today so he can watch YouTube on the toilet.

Believe me I get it :) It’s hard for me to resist too but sometimes there’s no winning. And winning isn’t even what we’re after usually. Just an honest back and forth about the pros and cons about the tech we all enjoy. It’s too bad that kind of discourse is so hard to come by these days :/
There’s no point in arguing with folks like that. They’re way more interested in platform wars than an honest argument. When they stick to the tired “planned obsolescence” lines from 10 years ago and try to argue that having a 2 year old phone that no longer gets security updates is a good thing, you know they jumped the shark years ago and are just posting in bad faith at this point.
What’ll really aggravate you is that way back when cable was first rolling out, it was billed as paid TV service without ads (as opposed to the ad-supported OTA local networks). Obviously that promise didn’t last long.
It’s a tale as old as time. Its happened before, it’s happening now, and it’ll happen again.
It’s remarkable isn’t it? Now we’re the ones telling our parents to turn off the TV and get off the internet or it’ll rot their brains.
Yep. It’s easy to complain or change your profile picture or share a link but if putting your money where your mouth is results in even the slightest discomfort or change to your comfort zone, that’s usually where people stop having a problem with the latest offense.
As long as our lives keep moving unaffected we’ll abide anything 😞
Yep. And it’s already been a thing for a few years now. Facetime makes it look like you’re looking right at each other.

They have the cash, they just don’t believe in spending it. But once this falls through they’ll pretty much have to now that they’ve flashed it (I hope).
I feel bad for Lavia seeing them hem and haw over a few mil and then show their 111 mil hand.
I’ve been using it almost exclusively for the past 4 years or so ever since Google Maps missed multiple exits on the way home from Newark airport. The next time, I tried Apple Maps and it didn’t miss the exits and I haven’t really had to look back since I made the switch.
Your belt onions are looking spiffy today
I stand corrected. Appreciate you setting the record straight. Apologies if my response misled anyone.
I mean if you want to dig into it, Apple is a company that makes most of its from money from selling tech. They spend a lot on highly effective advertising, but they pay actual advertising companies to do that. So I don’t think that qualifies them as an advertising company unless you’re just trying to be dismissive. You make your money from making and selling tech, you’re a tech company first.
Google and Meta make the vast majority of their money by selling ads and selling user data to other advertising companies so they can create their own targeted ads. That by definition makes them ads companies more than tech companies.
Microsoft sells mostly software/services to enterprise clients, they’re a B2B software company. Amazon too with AWS, etc. I read the other day that with how big NYT’s word games have gotten they’re more of a gaming company that also sells newspapers these days.
Anyway, yeah you can call Apple an advertising company or a fashion company or whatever but the fact is they’re more of a tech company than most of the other companies you probably think of as tech companies. Apple-produced tech is regularly compared to the likes of Nvidia, Intel, and AMD. You can’t say the same for the other top “tech” companies.
