The whole outrage is so stupid. It is a very stupid fact of our modern capitalist system that some people can get a ton of money just for who they are, after becoming famous for various reasons (a lot of luck for many). It is just not fair

The problem with Fairphone is that the price just isn't right. I get that they don't have enough volume but they should find a way to make it viable at a competitive price otherwise it is useless. Who cares that it is easier to re

You seem to be the naivest one here, talking the bullshit Apple feeds you, when all that's required to remove the battery is a hairdryer, some prying tools and a bit of skills. They actually are mocking the whole thing by pretending th

Do you have a link and more precise details. I want to believe you but to me it sounds like a lot of fear mongering…

She wasn’t lying and they knew that. From their point of view she was the saboteur and they are objectively right. If you want to create conflict, you better have integrity and leave instead of continuing to use the resources of the group f

I’m sorry you get downvoted because that’s basically the truth. Previously retirement was done by investing in your children and environment. It makes a lot of sense, is a lot more secure and positive than any of the bullshit we came up wit

It’s not necessarily a capitalist thing. People will try to avoid any responsibility while getting the most of any system if you let them. A retirement system like we have in France where older peoples shift the pension responsibility to yo

The whole thing is a poorly written snooze fest. Lots of stories with many irrelevant details yet it contains pretty much no factual data.

I need to have an app on my phone to manage my health care payment. I don't need a console for anything in particular. It's hardly the same thing. Some services are not even available on a traditional computer FinTech started as

If all of that is true, I don't see why you would bother keeping in contact with them. At some point if someone makes it so hard to be contacted it sends a message that he doesn't want to be contacted. On top of that, I know some

And they have been rather uncompetitive lately. Nowadays, the only thing they do better than others is their own silicon but since it's not that relevant for phones anymore they need to do better. The worst is that because of greed the

As they have shown repeatedly Apple is not more trustworthy than any other company. Do you also shop only at Amazon because of this irrational fear? You have been properly brainwashed; you don't understand what you say.

But any other app that would get big enough would end up just like that. All those behaviors are just what happens when power gets concentrated (in a single company/group/hand, whatever the case may be). So, what is actually neede

France and Germany are still at war, just not overtly but in a covert feminine way. They very much butt head politically and economically. And as a French I will say I wish Germany would just fuck off because the political power they gained

I agree on the slowdown thing, it is normal in a way. But only if you consider that Apple should only do hardware to make 45% profit on it. And this is where I disagree, a lot more Android phones are sold every year because in the end peop

Yeah, I know about that but I thought it was turned off and it wasn't. So, I turned it back off, maybe it was re-enabled after a major update. I hope it's going to improve things, it should, but I don't think it's going

The fact that you have to do that just to keep compatibility with newer hardware that your purchase from them is just bonkers. Then you realize that you probably shouldn't use their service if you can keep up with the discretionary spe

While they are some annoyances, I also find Windows 11 to be pretty good (I was a lifelong Mac user previously). And I don't get any ADS after disabling the weather widget so I don't know where you find them really. I literally h

FaceID was such a cool marketing gimmick that ended up a major pain in the ass. When they announced it, I was so hyped because sometimes I had issues with TouchID (sweating finger after workouts, dirty finger when cooking, or damaged finger

That is just plain wrong. Android tablets absolutely don't suck if you put as much money in them as you would in an Apple one. It is just that people have been convinced by marketing and by people like you (believers) that they suck at

It comes from the top, it's CEO and executive. When you don't use a computing platform to do useful stuff, as a "bicycle for the mind" as Steve Jobs said, it becomes much less clear how iOS/iPad OS can be lackluster

They don't, it's part of the "believer" persona where they will excuse anything and everything, thinking that since it is so expensive and gives so much status that it can't be bad or wrong. The state of things is a

I agree and the fall has already started I believe. But they have "believers" that don't seem to understand the rational of people saying this. Funny thing is that even Steve Jobs said as much in an interview: basically, that

A company that is making 45% net margin, mostly from their hardware sales (revenue from associated services is very dependent on the limitations they put in, on purpose); is not trying to make even more profit. Like Apple sole focus in the

That will also be true for any laptop that is not bottom of the barrel and got taken care of correctly by its owner. I have non techies' friends using Windows laptops who greatly outlived any Mac laptop because of software support any

That's not exactly true, just the other day Snazzy lab complained about a MBP M3 Max throttling and making a lot of fan noise. Those are barely competitive with the heavier but more powerful gaming/creation laptops Apple's af

They don't care because they can't make money off it. They know very well that Steam would outsell their App Store offering so greatly (with good reasons) if they supported Vulkan that they don't see the point. They push thei

Worry free update has not been a thing with macOS in ages. I dread any OS update, since it will take ages at the very least and very likely to bring more bugs than the one, they were supposed to fix. And sometimes they outright remove suppo

I don't know how they didn't realize that. Maybe they just don't use their phone as much as they think. I freaking hate my iPhone Mini for that, load a YouTube video, a few tabs and a note and boom you are in for a reload eve
