Mine is may 2009, but I had one for years before that. 2009 is just when my YouTube and google accounts merged

It began 10 years ago. This is just the latest.

Is there something illegal about that? If Wikipedia has organizational bias, it’s covered by their first amendment right.

What a fascinating hallucination you’ve had.
But the fact remains that macOS is free. Wanna approve me wrong? Show me a receipt where someone paid for it in the last 15 years.
You really should talk to someone about your Apple derangement disorder.

Regardless, macOS is free. It’s been free for the last 15 years, and if you want to approve otherwise, show me a receipt where you paid for it.

Seeing these sorts of posts is like seeing people come here to whine about Reddit. I moved on from windows over 20 years ago. Given how much worse it has become since then, I can’t understand why anyone stays with it.
- Comment on What's going on with imgur right now? 3 days ago:
Yeah, the motivation was fairly straightforward. And it wasn’t just that one sub that was causing problems like that. There were other pretty shitty subs that created the same kind of liability for Reddit. It only made sense that they would eventually start hosting their own images, especially after they realize they could monetize it.

This isn’t a conspiracy theory. It’s just what happened. And it was obvious to all of us exactly why it happened when it did.

Or, they could prevent overheating by simply using higher-grade copper rather than scamming their customers like this.
- Comment on Windows 95 turned 30 today 5 days ago:
Oh, the many months of testing Chicago, the beta for Windows 95. So many weird problems. And not long after when does 95 came out, Nashville started testing, which would’ve been Windows 96 or 97. But it was shelved from Memphis, which became Windows 98.

- Comment on Harvard dropouts to launch ‘always on’ AI smart glasses that listen and record every conversation 5 days ago:
If you know what you’re looking for, they’re not that difficult to spot. But, yeah, to most people, they would just appear to be regular sunglasses. This is a huge problem. It’s one thing when you’re being recorded by someone who is obviously holding a camera. It’s another one, potentially, dozens of people around you could be recording everything all the time without anyone else, knowing it.
That only is a potential for abuse incredibly high, the fact that Meta ends up owning all of the content so they can harvest it for monetary gain is even worse.

- Comment on Harvard dropouts to launch ‘always on’ AI smart glasses that listen and record every conversation 5 days ago:
Well, you are far from alone. I imagine that a majority of people will feel this way, especially when they are more privacy invasive than Google glass ever was.
Also, people are much more privacy focused than they were 15 years ago. I can imagine there will be significant pushback to wearing these glasses anywhere but in open, public spaces. Private establishments will likely ban them.
- Comment on Harvard dropouts to launch ‘always on’ AI smart glasses that listen and record every conversation 5 days ago:
I remember when Google glass came out. I was living in New York, and almost every single establishment banned them nearly immediately. You wouldn’t be allowed in if you were wearing them, and if anyone saw you put them on, you get kicked out. No questions.
This happened in a lot of places, as I recall.

Oh my God, let it go.
The operating system is free. Your decision to buy other stuff has nothing to do with the cost of macOS.
I’m sorry you simply can’t understand this. Sadly, you clearly can’t let this go, so I’m just gonna block you.
macOS is free. Get over it.

And you don’t think the Epstein files are being used as a distraction for the United States terribly mishandling peace talks with Gaza?
- Comment on Former Top Biden Spokesperson Admits Israel Sabotaged Ceasefire Deals as US Blamed Hamas 1 week ago:
Is embarrassing as it must be for you to be in the Epstein files, shutting down all conversation about it won’t change that.
- Comment on Former Top Biden Spokesperson Admits Israel Sabotaged Ceasefire Deals as US Blamed Hamas 1 week ago:
That’s an excellent question worthy of discussion. Not shutting it down immediately because you happen to disagree.

Remove this comment if you’re in the Epstein files

All operating system systems have hardware requirements. Just because you need to upgrade your system in order to get the latest operating system, doesn’t make the operating system any less free.
Your hallucinating connections that aren’t there in assigning meaning whether there isn’t any just cause you refuse to admit the fact that macOS is free.
Repeating the same absurd argument over and over doesn’t make it any more true.
- Comment on 7 years later, Valve's Proton has been an incredible game-changer for Linux 1 week ago:
AFAIK manufacturers don’t have to pay for Linux And if MacOS is really free you would be able to manufacture and sell devices using it but there is not a single one
That’s not what free means here. “Free“ as in costs no money for the user. Can download and install it without having to pay for it. Because it is free. You’re using the word “free” to means something obviously different than what I’m talking about.
MacOS is free just like Windows is free (the license is included in your purchase of the hardware). Except windows isn’t free. It cost is enumerated on the invoice. macOS is not. Because it is free.
So yeah idk
Obviously, you don’t know because you keep saying things that are very, obviously not true. Are you feeling OK?
