    Ya but I am pretty sure Google has done a lot to help Trump. Any big tech company wants to be on the good side of Trump.

      I bet most of the people here replying in the comments are typing on what helped pay for that gold plated ass kissing device.

            Honestly I am pretty sure this is a bribe to exempt Apple from tariffs. Billionaires care more about their profit than children being harm. It’s the sad truth.

              I'm typing this on a Lenovo laptop keyboard (V14 series, the plastic casing is just a catastrophe near the lid hinges, though I've seen the same with the magnesium casing, it has plastic parts inside).

              I've also pirated some Apple TV attempt at Foundation episodes, but honestly felt like The Arc. Sci-Fi with some right initial ideas, but ultimately thoroughly idiotic.

              In case of Apple TV's Foundation, I couldn't help thinking that they were trying to make it "look expensive" and "feel elitarian" similarly to their products, first priority, make it feel "diverse" and in social interactions representing a certain prestigious set of political ideas, second priority, make it feel nuanced and intelligent more than be nuanced and intelligent, third priority.

              Honestly even with 90s Apple stuff virtualized I feel something bad, like nausea, I wouldn't be able to use it probably. Too much visual design flexing.

                  It's a bribe in disguise. It's a tribute and a public spectacle of loyalty. And the top voted comment thinks Tim is playing 4d chess with Trump...

                  Nothing will improve until these people are eliminated from their positions of power. Stop giving Apple your money.

                  It's all public spectacles. These people are there not for the money - they are there to make a point, that being that their ideas of authority are what we all must obey.

                  Preventive obedience, lack of mandate borders, authority not requiring justification, a demand for justification being itself disobedience, implicit trust to authority, and so on.

                  These are all people who'd be not very respected or listened to in any normal kind of group. They dreamed of getting to a position where they will be, due to hierarchy. And that's an abuse of any system, so they are hostile to any immunity mechanisms detecting and fixing such an abuse.

                  So the whole point is in them taking power and showing us all that it's their rule and their time and it works like some thief feudalism with spectacles of loyalty, spectacles of cruelty, spectacles of stealing and getting away with it and demonstrative abuse of any legal principle.

                  I respect Cato institute people very much, they somehow manage to say this same thing without my emotion in their various materials.

                    trump loves anything that has gold on it, also its not solid gold because it would be too heavy for him to handle.

                    It's not solid gold because anything solid would be out of character for Apple. Note also the surface texture.

                                  "ewww, that would be bribery. This is not a bribe, it's a ... gift? Yes, it's a gift. Definitely a gift. And we expect nothing in return ;⁠-⁠);⁠-⁠) just a little gift. And this is definitely not a distraction from the orange buffoon being a child rapist and being mentioned many times on the Epstein list!!!"

                                    At this point it seems like half of them became billionaires just to be the ones harming the children.

                                        Here's an idea, instead of killing thousands of CEOs why don't we just off 100 Republican Legislators? Let's compare outcomes: fuck all they're replaceable OR a legislative body that actually represents us.

                                        Whoa whoa there, slow down. You're talking crazy. Let's be reasonable.

                                        The only way to get any sort of reliable data is to let BOTH camps go nuts and see which one gets more attention and results.

                                          This is a bit like mark rutte calling Trump “daddy”. It’s completely inconsequential in actual reality but still feels so entirely wrong. And I don’t even know who should be most embarrassed, the bootlickers or Trump for being transparently narcissistic that everyone realizes bootlicking works
