Apple without Jobs is just another company with no vision or aesthetic.
The notch is now wider, the 3 cameras at the back makes the whole thing uglier. Why do they refuse to make a simple clean shape and find a way to hide the cameras?

What YouTubers? And yeah, I think that's the killer feature of this new model, even if it's one that few people will ever use. Still, it might save lives. I'm betting even before that stream ended some Samsung executive started screaming at their engineers in irate Korean telling them that feature will be on their next Galaxies so they'd better get it figured out.

The SE is still there with no notch or Dynamic Island(tm) and only one camera on the back, if you want it. As for a "simple clean shape," what do you have in mind? The entire industry has pretty much settled on a flat rounded rectangle unless you care about those goofy foldable ones.

I bought an ipod video to take on a deployment for porn and it served admirably. It didn't last long after I got back, but it got beat to hell. The only complaint was the retarded click wheel. I have an original Zune HD from 10 years ago that's still going strong, although that isn't really a fair comparison because it doesn't have a mechanical harddrive. My favorite Apple product has always been:

I cashed in three free months of apple fitness with the intention of using the rowing and spin class specifically so I can go at 4am before the influencers show up and preen.

God they picked some nasty ass ugly fat black chicks, brick Shit house dykes, pregnant things. There’s only one trainer that’s kinda hot. It would be more motivation to see an actual attractive person in a human shape, male or female.

Someone wiped their old Macbook(2010) and I've been trying to reinstall MacOS. It's driving me fucking insane.

I was at the point where I created a new AppleID for myself and after googling I figured out how to enter the 2FA code despite there not being a field for it when installing over the internet. I know I shouldn't leave it like that but I was hoping that if I could install the fucking OS I could do a factory reset of sorts. Turns out I have no registered purchases on my AppleID and I don't have any Apple shit and I tried the web version... I have tried so many things at this point. I tried to download a compatible version on an Apple M1 following Apple's guides but MacOS just goes "nah brah, you have the latest"

Today I used a bootable USB stick made with TransMac and Yosemite, following several guides. Did not work. I have now made it into a GPT partion and put High Sierra on it, if this doesn't work I'm out of ideas but you Mac people know a thousand times more things than me. What can I do? Why is this so fucking hard? Are the people at Apple actually retarded? Guide after guide on the internet with people having the same problem...

At end of life (an MBP from 2010), I just installed PeppermintOS on it. Then rEFInd (a fork of the rEFIt boot manager that replaces EFI). Then Windows 10 and dual booted it. Both ran faster than High Sierra.

Does it still have the Recovery Partition? I think Command-Option-R gets you there, and should just automatically go to the Internet if not and download the latest supported version. I'd consider completely wiping the drive of all partitions.

Apple doesn't officially support it any more which is an issue, and may be deliberately being obnoxious about even letting you download or install it.
 
Surprised nobody was talking about how bafflingly retarded the new iPad is. Why would they release a newly-designed product and have it not only be not compatible with the objectively better Apple Pencil 2, but also be barely compatible with the original Apple Pencil 1, requiring a fucking dongle to charge?

It really seems like Apple just doesn’t know what the hell iPads are supposed to actually do, because the whole lineup is just a confusing mess. But it really isn’t that hard, in fact I’ll do their job for them:

- iPad Classic - cheap iPad with old form factor and home button, intended for school, business and checkout counters
- iPad Mini - exactly what it is now
- iPad Air - exactly what it is now
- iPad Pro Max - existing 12.9” iPad Pro

That’s it, doesn’t need to be any more complicated than that. Who the hell is this new iPad even for?
