Keyword here is “yet”

They’ll need to build a case sufficiently for it to be impossible for him to weasel out of. It takes time but there’s an old saying that “the wheels of justice grind slowly but finely”. If the Trump indictments are any guide of what to expect from Justice, it’ll take a while but should be substantial.

Hopefully it slows people from doing any business with him, especially after the Ukraine revelation.

No - it's good. He's inflated his net worth, so we get him for all the loans he's gotten using that false valuation.

Apple shares back up today. Not sure what you're all about, bubby.

Wow! I'm immediately so excited for this! Grew up with Godzilla movies in the 60s and mostly love the current incarnation, especially the 2014 movie. Looking forward to seeing where this goes!

appleTV+ is home to the best sci-fi now.

Fuck that.

All I need is some tracking app that's required by my company for communication, harvesting intel off my phone. I try to keep it lean and curated - I don't need some wild-west version of the app store where there's no boundaries.

You want all that? Go Android.

He has an opinion, and without any evidence it's just that.

That he's getting any upvotes is just the paranoid and the apple haters coming out of the closet.

Bleed.

Good.

Still have one of those, but I prefer the lightning one - to each their own. The plug in the front would work, but occasionally checking on battery status makes either location moot. When you see it’s at 25% or so, just plug it in before bed.

To me, this argument is less about the connector placement and more about users not watching over or caring about their tools.

If your lithium batteries run down below 10%, you’re damaging the batteries and they’ll reduce their possible SOC. It’s just like an EV in that way.

No, it means I check on the status of my batteries occasionally and plug it in at lunch (or overnight) to charge. It’s not the logo - I take care of my tools.

I mean, I’ve only been a web developer for 30 years and used these mice since they came out, so it’s not like I know what I’m talking about.

If that’s the hill you want to die on…

C’mon - that was an excellent switcheroo, like killing off Janet Leigh ⅓ of the way through Psycho. That they’d kak a big star in the first 42 minutes (just checked) is a great way to throw an audience off-balance. Now we’re back in classic disaster-movie territory, and you’re not sure who’ll actually survive.

I mean, if it was called “Cranston” and not “Godzilla” and they did that, I’d feel bad.

How to say you’ve never used an Apple mouse without saying you’ve never used an Apple mouse.

Looks nice, but I’m on different platform.

I’ve a bunch of 2600s on my Miyoo - never play them.

I won’t begrudge someone from getting hardware if this is how they swing, but I never was into the 2600…ColecoVision was my first 8-bit. Man’s gotta have standards, you know.

If we could only decide WHICH channels we want - let the people who want shorts have it, shitty as it is. Just let me turn it off (and games, film and music while we’re at it).

I never used them. I never will use them. They are just in the way and keep me praying for a YT alternative.

Anything from the Apocalypse Now soundtrack.

Also, Fleetwood Mac’s “Go Your Own Way”

Ah, you’re right. I thought it was longer … time is weird these days…

Isn’t it time for new AirPod Pros? (He says, waiting for a reason to upgrade from his first-edition AirPods..)

Yep, ‘cause they’re the same kind of movie.

He’ll be a moustache for Xi - he talks bluster, but his financial ties to China cut both ways.

I mean, let’s be real - NO ONE comes out like that unless they’re a puppet
