I don’t use apple for the same reason I don’t use fisher price as an adult. You are free to use your technology made for babies that’s beside the point. The point is that the article in discussion is about Tim Cook and Apple providing a recent bribe to Trump.
Your comment is providing no value. You are attempting whataboutism and really shows the type of person you are more than anything.
To be clear, if googl was caught bribing and someone said “buh buh buh Apple!” Id be saying the same thing. Stop sucking dick like they owe you something to take a side.
When Google bribes Trump with a 24k gold gift let’s discuss Google then ok?
With the degree of information, and capacity to profile individuals at scale and model complex systems, Google likely knew Trump would be in the white house long before anyone else. They fired up the bribery train early on.
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.
Tim Cook, and Apple, is supporting a pedophile. Remember that when you walk into an Apple Store, if you can afford to.
“Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai visited Trump at Mar-a-Lago after the election, and Google donated $1 million to the inauguration fund”
So is Google and every major company
You’re right it’s both now can we fuck off with the “buh buh buh the other company!” bullshit?
Article is about Apple not Google.
On nerdy sites like Lemmy people tend to fawn over Google and they can do no wrong
And every slight Apple does is The Worst Ever
If Google does the same thing, out come the excuses. 😀

Uhhhh… What. My experience has been the literal opposite. People here hate Google
And still rock an Android phone proudly
I don’t know about “proudly.” Preferred to Apple? Sure.
Simping the worlds largest ad company is weird to me
But that’s just me 🤷🏻♂️
I don’t know who you’re referring to here… Is that how you read my comments?
That may have been true a few years ago but not anymore. Google gets lots of hate on Lemmy, Reddit, and various other tech sites.

I buy pixel phones, because out of the sea of bullshit, it’s at least capable of being rooted/flash to a new os. The PinePhone sadly isn’t ready.

So if it’s only an 18k carat gift it’s just fine? Because Google are the good guys
Is the article about Google or Apple? Really easy question for you.
real big yet you participate in society energy
I bet most of the people here replying in the comments are typing on what helped pay for that gold plated ass kissing device.
Is this a “you criticize society yet you participate in it” thing?
Ayy yo we got Ben Shapiro on Lemmy? 🤣
Great reply, from your iPhone.
I have an android. I hate them both but at least I can install any application I want.
To any & all Android users: you should install Grayjay. But don’t do it from the Play Store because that’s the stupid nerfed version.
I bet you’re using electricity from the power grid!
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.
Exactly, they all are sucking that orange teet now.

Nope.

Maybe if we were on reddit, here I really don’t think that’s true.
