I find useful stuff at the dump and make long winded rants against consumer culture. Inspired by Pickle Rick and whatever I can scrounge.

Quit buying shit from companies that destroy the earth in the name of making the already rich even richer.

Unless they build something that isn’t locked down and obsolete shit after 5 years, it is just as fucking useless as a 5 year old iPad.

Clearly some people should donate their opposable thumbs to someone who might be differently abled and actually get the point

Great counter-point. So we are offended by a commercial AND calling for a ban on differently abled people from using music creation apps! How many differently abled people in your life would love a $1000 iPad designed for an able bodied person? Or would they want something designed with them in mind? Speaking of condescending. "Sounds like a you problem. Don’t piss on everyone else’s parade. “I think a lot of people here are confused and angry at clouds” “I’m sorry your music career didn’t pan out after all that work. Not everyone can be a musician.”
Dis you?

Does anyone know an even slighty successful musician who uses a 5 year old iPad? Now, are there any slightly successful musicians that we can think of that use a 5 year old (affordable) guitar? Or a 5 year old computer? How about a cheap drum machine or sequencer? How about giving a kid anything but a $1000 iPad (or a 5 year old paperweight)

Save us 5 years. Just put the new ipad into e-waste collection now. Meanwhile, anyone want to use all the real tools designed specifically to make music? Any kid with half a brain will spend their $1000 musicmaking budget on something useful

You are delusional to think even one of the 9 million kids living in poverty in the US would buy a $1000 iPad as a tool to make music. In 5 years that fucking $1000 iPad is only worth cracking open to harvest as e-waste. A kid buying a $50 dollar pawnshop guitar is far more likely to continue to make listenable music than some fucking dipshit buying an iPad. Maybe in 5 years they can sell that guitar for $50 to another kid who will successfully make music. Or maybe they luck out and that guitar is worth $5000. The kid who can afford to buy the $1000 iPad will hopefully use this as a chance to learn about planned obsolesence…
Here’s a thought, maybe an iPad is a wasteful piece of garbage technology. Maybe this isn’t a rant about technology and preventing opportunities, maybe its a rant against shitty technologies that are wasteful.
Get off all our fucking lawns.

Great point. Not a lot of people have time and two arms

Hey Apple, Great ad. It perfectly encapsulates what an iPad is…a shit product juiced from the tears of real creativity - A soul crushing, art destroying block of useless shit forged from real tools.

I would really like to say something positive and community building to this like @CubitOom lemmy.world/comment/8574037
or @BmeBBenji lemmy.world/comment/8570341But… I am compelled by my god Lemmy (Kilmister) and my only personality trait, to proselytize for projects that add value to the world.
What is more concerning (and more entertaining) is all the Windows wankers advocating on an open source forum
