  • Honestly they would likely manage the same.

    Both are obsessed about micromanaging every aspect of the device.

    Both work their staff to death and expect the impossible.

    Both create a company that is a brand. That is, there are better products out there, but people will pay a premium just to say they own an Apple device/Tesla.

    It's actually extremely logical/a great fit.

  • He was diagnosed with insulinoma, which unlike other pancreatic cancers, is curable and can be treated with surgery. Doctors recommended an early operation but Mr Jobs could not be persuaded to stop his pursuit of alternative remedies.

    Mr Jobs went public about his cancer in 2004 after finally agreeing to surgery that year, by which time the cancer had spread.

    He realised the delay had been a mistake and told his biographer Walter Isaacson: "I should have gotten it earlier."

  • Lmao at one of the most popular.

    I don't agree that Epic doesn't have enough resources, but realistically Linux makes up such a tiny proportion of systems I don't blame any other developer for not supporting it. Would be a waste of resources.

  • This is not correct for Australia.

    I'm looking at places in Melbourne at the moment. A 1-bedroom place is around $450 a week or $1800 a month roughly.

    You can easily get a cheaper mortgage than that for a 1 bedroom place. Potentially even get a 2 bedroom unit for same as you'd pay in rent.

  • They're both consenting adults, and it's just sex.

    It's yuck in the same way a teen might say old people (30+ yos) having sex are yuck.

    But there's nothing inherently wrong about it, your views are just judgemental. May also just be a cultural thing to be fair, or as societies attitude towards sex become more open, older views may still just be very conservative.

  • I disagree. You don't seem to understand piracy at all.

    If you're going to pirate games, you'll find a way. I have spent hours sometimes figuring out how to do so, and it's almost part of the fun.

    The only reason I'd look at buying a Steam deck in future is to play pirated games. If I absolutely love a game and developer then sure, I'd buy it if I have the cash but otherwise you may as well pirate it.

    The only reason I don't pirate games IS because of locked down hardware like Playstation Etc. Otherwise, I have pretty much never bought a game on PC.

  • You're using anecdotes to back up your experience which is never a good sign.

    This is a fairly basic TV stand design. If you honestly know 4 people who've struggled with this then I'm not sure what to tell you. Personally I've never heard of anyone have a problem with their TV stand. I myself have a central stand and it's pretty bulky/annoying itself and wouldn't fit on many smaller tables. But if you have an appropriate TV stand it's fine.

    So yeah, I do think it's entitled that people expect every TV manufactured to magically work on their specific table, and if it doesn't it's badly designed. Put another way, why don't you look up some reviews of this TV and see how many people rate it highly vs complain about the stand? When I looked at similar designs they were very highly rated, so at least for the majority of people it's well designed and acknowledging you cannot have a single design that works for everyone.

    OP in his post said he saw it in person so they even knew what they were buying and could easily measure it. I don't know how they can honestly go back and say it's badly designed and doesn't fit their table when they literally saw how it was designed and could have easily measured it out if they chose to.

  • Why is it cutting corners though?

    Ideally you'd have the option for both a central stand and the two sides in the one box, but then that's being wasteful and bad for the environment.

    There really isn't a good option here. In that case I'd say it's on the consumer to figure out beforehand what the stand is and decide whether they like it or not, not on the company to magically know what stand the consumer needs.

    Many companies do shitty things but this stand issue really is a non-issue.

  • I looked up the shittiest TV brand available at my local electronics store and yeah, they do list the width with and without stands.

    And if you plan on putting your TV on a table that is way too small, then I'd double check where the stands sit exactly, because it's not a design problem but a you problem.

    People need to stop blaming their shitty planning on "bad design". It's the most common sense design that will work in most cases.

    Next you'll have the guy who puts their TV on two separate chairs complain about the bad design of TV's that only have a single stand in the middle ffs.
