Historys biggest villains have tended to not be very sympathetic.

and most serial killers come from broken homes and were abused, not saying it's their motive but at least theres something there.

When I play a game and I just see characters going around doing nonsensical things and spouting ideologies nonstop it just seems like extremely lazy writing. Like they couldn't be bothered to invest in anything other than the gameplay.

yes

Devs couldn't even TRY to make them sympathetic? "I'm going to kill everyone who isn't strong just because"

Like what has to happen for someone to arrive at that?

yes

usually if someone refuses to answer a question, it's the negative option but they're too afraid to say it

yes

the people who get hung up on it are weirder. As long as they're legal age why is there any reason to care?

at least they were in the open when that happened, so it was feasible

Dani literally gets caught like 6 times the same way, after opening a door. Makes you wonder why they dont use that tactic more often. and villain logic enables them to escape

yes

they get trapped every other gunfight
you'd think after the second go around t hey would be prepared for people waiting around corners

you try to go to a meeting between your superiors you weren't invited to and see how that works out for ya. Doesn't matter what the meeting was about

"The tweet thread went viral, quickly spiraling into a conversation about free speech and cancel culture. Netflix then suspended Field along with two other employees for trying to attend a director-level meeting they werent invited to. Another trans employee is quitting the company over how the special and Fields comments were handled."

maybe this is just what we needed, the anti vax trump supporters wouldn't wanna be associated with BLM, so they'll start getting vaccinated. All we need is for Fox news to run its hits again

Why is this always the immediate go-to attack when there isn't even an implication that's what TC is/did, and why is it that 90% of the time it's someone with a Samsung phone that hasn't received an update in 4 years lol.

Usually coping due to being disappointed in ones own life situation. Whether its not being able to afford a phone, no real social life, anything.

Oh, I mean 90 hours over two months doesnt seem that unhealthy. At least from how much I played mmos back around 2004.

As a functional adult maybe not that great?

90 hours over two months is childs play tbh

That's when you realize thanos was insignificant in the grand scheme of things, kinda why captain marvel fucked off somewhere else in the galaxy too if you think about it

Wouldnt make sense considering he was ending half of all life, which is pretty fucking massive

If someone doesn't do something perfectly, everyone in the universe gets fucked? That's like... a billion times worse than whatever Thanos was doing

people complaining that apple isn't copying whatever gimmick is in android devices rn and then complain if Apple does add them that android had it first

it's not out because it runs poorly, thats the real reason. Android OS sucks, iOS is supposed to be a refined user experience. Wireless charging is ass and results in more issues than it fixes, sorry to burst your bubbles. They were already looking into having your airpods charge from your phone and the result was it didn't work well, so that's why it's not there.

why are PC users so attacked by Apples existence

there should be a what if episode, "What if the iPhone was never invented"

i mean i'm sure steve jobs wouldn't be the only person in the world with a vision for a touchscreen phone, but just where would we be now and how would our technology look? hmm

I remember the reaction to the iPad being nothing but mocking, then it swept the market.

i was one of the ipad naysayers, i was like ehhh its just a bigger iphone. then i got an ipad mini and used it for a few years, now i have an ipad pro and i still...barely use it. It has an absolute stranglehold on the tablet market though.

---

yes

some people are afraid of change

not all change is good of course, honestly i still feel motion controls are a gimmick because they only make sense if you're in your room gaming, not on the go and often times they just add an annoyance factor instead of make stuff easier. But to play devils advocate, i'm actually a fan of the touchbar on the macs, it seems like a natural progression of the function keys.

man technology changed after that keynote

there are probably some deranged people who will say it wasn't revolutionary

yes

why tho

yes

so many people in the tech industry thought it was a toy, and that it wouldn't sell because it doesn't have a physical keyboard, among other things.

stuff like this

---

yes

yeah that $5000 XDR screen or whatever is hilarious, but i think they price it that way because they know the average consumer isn't gonna buy it. Just like I didn't buy that magic keyboard and instead bought a $50 case off amazon that basically turns my ipad into a laptop and swivels

I feel people who hate Apple rarely actually use Apple, those of us who have actual Apple products rarely have any serious complaints lol.

well yeah people wouldn't use things they hate lol

Although I did see someone today call the iPhone 12 the worst camera they've ever used in a smartphone. I'm half convinced they were trolling. They also said you have to open your email on iPhone to refresh it(also false) so i'm sure they were just being an android troll

---

yes

i have an SD card slot reader on my mac with an adapter but thats only for my 3ds files, my windows desktop didn't even come with one and its a gaming desktop. HP probably thought nobody would use it.
i have a 256gb iPhone and i dont even use 50gb of space and I have downloaded a lot of music from spotify/apple music lol. Do you two use your phone primarily? I guess if you use your phone as if it were a PC it would be critical

---

yes

i thought the apples macbook air is the current best price for performance laptop on the market or something?

and the restrictions thing feels like such a non-slight. "You can't plug your SD card into your phone" like theres people that consider that a critical feature of a PHONE lol

yes

Havent Android phones slowly started becoming very similar to the iPhone in terms of price and features? I remember reading the new Galaxy phones were not doing the SD card slot anymore which was always a big GOTCHA against Apple and also ads inside the phones/tvs.

they always adopt apples new designs tbh

like wasn't there a big ongoing lawsuit for the better part of the 2010s about Samsung copying apple?
A lot of them don't even have headphone jacks anymore

I can't describe it but I hate how Apple was marketed for the longest time. Like it really bugged me whenever I went to the store and saw "iPods and MP3 Players", when iPods *are* MP3 players. Or "iPads and Tablets".

And Apple fanboys were the real elitists for the longest time. Had some kid in high school try to tell me that my iRiver MP3 player was an "iPod knockoff" despite the fact it had a completely different design philosophy, better equalizer options, and supported a wider range of file formats...

It was just stupid. Now everyone's just kind of slinging mud at each other.

its probably like that so people know if they are actually selling those things in the store. If you just put "MP3 players" a lot of people are gonna skip over it, but if you put "We have iPods" then you'll draw some attention. I think some stores aren't authorized apple sellers so they can't legally sell them either

yes

I've been seeing a lot of android users go straight at Apple users, calling them sheeps and stuff and the whole thing just reminds me of the current vaccine debate
