that's code g3n3ralgay

and now, back to general

anyways

reason they did it was because it was competing with: https://www.apple.com/apple-pay/

oh yeah apple pay

yeah ngl apple is pretty gay

homo enormous

like, i watched highlights of their recent unveiling of their apple products

and that was pretty much a fucking joke

OMGWEHAVENEWPROOOOOOOODUCT

TIME TO CONSOOOOOOOOM

they JUST added a compass on their newest apple watch

slightly better camera specs for their phones. recyclable materials

lol, recyclable

right

maybe 100% of the plastic in 5% of the parts

none of it was worthy enough for an entire convention imo

but whatever makes them money i guess. i think i'm more disappointed in the people who buy it and the journalist that advertise it than apple itself

i'm not, because I get it, they're mush brains

they have no ability to determine quality or make objective comparisons

so they just kick back to what an external source claims

or, they're getting paid to have that oppinion

it's expected from large companies like apple to grab garbage, slap a new coat of paint on it and call it new. but for people to believe in it and spend their money on it is frustrating lmao

yeah i agree

their MO for decades has been just sniping obsolete patents and giving them a fresh marketing paint job

Shit that's a good name @Sleepy

Consoomer

Lemme make something from that gimme a sec.

i've been playing with it for a couple weeks, I like it more than most of the oomers

Yee

>imagine buying apple because of the brand name and regal status it brings
>***(aristocrat chortle) yeeasss. I have the new apple watch, isnt it amazing and expensive? You poors will never understand, ha haha ha haaa~***

i've been using 2 different oneplus phones for the past 5-6 years maybe. i like em

It could also be a sort of post-modern art thing though, If I really squint at it.

not sure if i'm gonna get any of their newer phones tho. not a really big fan of 3 cameras

Like, they know it's retarded to buy apple stuff

but do it to make other people freak out about it

and secretely they use something else

people who buy apple?

>they use windows phones
