I'm not a Mac stan by any measure. It just feels like a tired bit. How are people still laughing about this?
I'm not laughing... I find the whole thing kind of depressing. Real talk, though... I'm just as pissed off at Google and many other huge companies.
I'm tired of huge companies exploiting the ignorance of average folks and damaging the progression of consumer technology. We deserve better than this.
If Apple sold their products for a pittence, I'd be their absolute biggest fan. They not only push aggressively overpriced tech, but they convince impressionable people to buy into their "ecosystem".
What the heck is that, even? What is their "ecosystem"? Macs, iPads and iphones all work with windows and Linux. Heck, Mac IS Linux at a core level. I'll tell you what it is... George Carlin give me strength, because "it's all bullshit, and it's BAD for you."
Mac is not Linux. They're similar, but not the same
I never claimed Linux and Mac were exactly the same. They are both kernals of UNIX. Though they differ, they use the same "core".
