Would Steve Jobs done the same?
bet steve wouldn't even answer the phone call. he was a bit egotistical, lol, and i doubt he'd have patience for trump's bullshit regardless of the consequences.

Definitely, as after this it was announced that Apple would not be affected by the 100% semiconductor tariffs.
You're kidding, right? Right?

Don’t understand how this isn’t criminal in America.
It is. Except that the law doesn't protect people. People protect the law. If a law is there on paper, but no one will enforce it, then it isn't a law. It's just some words on paper.

i kinda like how they dealt with gaddafi. i think thats the way to go.

I'm going from Android to Apple soon, because I'm finally totally over all the present day Android BS. Good luck, have fun.
Word to the wise: don't buy anything less than a flagship. Older flagship if you're wanting to save some money. Samsung is best. I've played around with all kinds of mid-tier Androids & it's a frustrating experience. The phones just don't work well for long. Motorola sucks ass, don't even bother.
What do you mean by "don't work well for long"?
I've been using my Sony Xperia phones for many years, without significant issues.

Imagine prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.
What is engraved on it? What is he saying?

Smells like an opportunity to cause Apple brand damage.

It’s like nuclear weapons
Unless everyone gets rid of them nobody will
Being the only one not to “bend the knee” will just hurt you if everyone else kisses his ass
wrote last edited by [email protected]Nobody should get rid of their nukes. In fact, more countries should have nuclear arms.
Such is life on planet earth.

I admittedly have no personal experience with Pixel; I have observed that people who get Pixels either love them or they're total shit & they hate them. No inbetweens, love or hate. My BIL got a shit one, but I see lots of happy Pixel owners.
I currently have an Oukitel Titan. It's a little quirky sometimes but it's also a beast of a phone, which makes up for any mishaps.
I recently switched from Motorola to a Pixel 9 and I'm very happy! Absolutely hated the 5 minutes that the Pixel was running stock Android tho (they remapped the Off button to an AI button and I couldn't figure out how to power down the phone), but once that crap was gone and GrapheneOS was installed I stayed 100% content. I'm not even a particularly security focused person, but Graphene's dedication to keeping bloatware and unnecessary dumb shit off the OS has been very appreciated

This almost makes me wish I still used Apple products so that I could boycott them.
Ive been Apple free for 20 years though.

I doubt many here would refuse to do this for massive bag.

All 3 of those are smaller than Apple. The only 2 companies with bigger market caps than Apple are Nvidia and Microsoft.
Market cap isn’t everything.
Meta by itself has a bigger cultural impact globally

wrote last edited by [email protected]That’s not how companies are measured against each other though. How are you even quantifying the cultural impact? You could have said many companies are bigger than Apple because they have a bigger physical footprint, bigger customer base, larger number of staff, bigger area of operation, larger mass of product or many other things but the fact is when we compare the “size” of companies, we are referring to their market cap.

Tim is smart. This is exactly how to survive your shit president, America. Bend him over and kiss his ass, and you’ll survive.
