Imagine being a billionaire, running one the most powerful, corporations in the United States, and prostrating yourself to Donald Trump in this very public and embarrassing way.

        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.

    Goddammit Tim Apple, it doesn’t even look like anything remotely interesting.

  • plm00@lemmy.ml ⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    This is my own conjecture, but I’m willing to bet that playing nicely with Pres. Trump somehow saves Apple billions in lost revenue to tariffs and legislation because Trump rewards those who are on his good side. I’m also willing to bet Tim Apple is pressured to do this and has a very different attitude behind closed doors. Not that this excuses anybody for their actions, but it’s clear they’re trying to game the system the best they can in the name of “business”.

    source
    • forrgott@lemmy.sdf.org ⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I don’t know, I mean if any corporation can eat the loss, it’s apple with their insanely high margins.

      I’m more inclined to believe there’s some form of quid pro quo going on behind the scenes.

      Besides, I simply cannot picture Tim Apple as any kind of a hero in this picture. No way he got bullied. He’s getting something out of it. You scratch my back. I’ll scratch yours.

    • skulblaka@sh.itjust.works ⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      You’re probably right.

      That doesn’t change my opinion, though, that everyone at Apple can go suck-start their own asshole, and they’ll never receive another cent of my money for as long as I live.

      I already wasn’t buying their shit but this has signed and sealed that for the rest of eternity.

      Apple stock did, and unfortunately it even makes sense why. Considering how self-centered Trump is, and how easily swayed he can be by a literal shiny rock being given to him, this was probably a legitimately good trade for Apple.

      They spend some money on a gold brick with some laser-cut glass, and the president of the entire country either gives them preferential treatment, or simply doesn't take any more extreme actions he was planning to take against them.
