I just want to run full Mac OS X on an iPad Air :(

- dangus 3y agoI think this idea of the market having the ability to be a benevolent force is so overplayed. It’s literally never been that way. The gilded age had to be ended by regulation just like the tech gilded age needs to be ended by regulation. The thing about the market is that it doesn’t care if people starve or if every company on the planet merges into a super conglomerate.
