Yeah that’s Bonjour and having a fixed platform.

They are both products focused on being fairer for consumers with upgradable components and better repairability. In terms of this discussion yours is a distinction without a difference.
Like others who have responded I’ve simply pointed out an example that refutes your statement. You don’t seem to be capable of even opening the smallest sliver of your mind to the possibility that anyone else might have a rational different perspective on this matter. It’s tiresome.
I’m not American. You might want to think about your assumptions and what they do to your ability to process information, particularly feedback.
He’s calling for the killing of Iraqis, you know people in Iraq. You know, those innocent civilians the American government lied about having weapons of mass destruction. Then Toby Keith’s dream came true and the US set about levelling their land and killing millions of Iraqis.
Why the fuck does 20 years matter? Your statement did not mention a timeline. Show some integrity.
In your own words:-
calling for the military to go and kill a citizen of another country
Are Iraqis in Iraq not citizens of another country?
Have you read the lyrics? Do you struggle with understanding context?
Oh, and justice will be served and the battle will rage This big dog will fight when you rattle his cage And you’ll be sorry that you messed with The U.S. of A. ‘Cause we’ll put a boot in your ass It’s the American way Hey Uncle Sam, put your name at the top of his list And the Statue of Liberty started shakin’ her fist And the eagle will fly it’s gonna be hell When you hear mother freedom start ringin’ her bell And it’ll feel like the whole wide world is raining down on you Oh, brought to you courtesy of the red white and blue

There’s plenty more. Or are you just being obtuse on purpose?
You know how this isn’t 2015 right? People are no longer fooled by you guys creating accounts to concern troll.
Republicans ratfucking due process and democracy is expected. Don’t feel bad for Biden, he can take it. He’s a player and a good one at that. Feel bad for Americans who aren’t smart enough to recognise ratfucking when it happens.
That process, the decorum you so richly despise is what keeps people from killing you for being such an ignorant loudmouth. People like you never think about the realities of a world where people kill without recourse and everything is an emotional knee jerk reaction with terminal consequences.
That article seems like utter bullshit designed to make Biden seem out of touch. There’s no proof, it’s all hearsay about him supposedly seeking questions from his advisors. What is CNN’s angle here?
Yeah that’s not correct. Facebook bought into the oculus project in a share swap/cash deal with Lucky Palmer. Carmack joined the project later because he believes in VR in a big way and he contributed very important parts of the rendering methods to greatly improve performance.
Exactly this. What a terrible exercise in reductionism.
Man that is one vapid piece of writing. VR is definitely a thing - there’s a whole market of devices, accessories and apps and experiences made for it. If your articles hinges on the idea of dismissing something that exists because you think it’s pointless then your article is reductive. Reductive posts on forums are thing but paragraphs of reductive reasoning is proof that some people need to touch grass now and then. I have no interest in Vision Pro but complaining that VR is pointless isn’t what I need to do to justify my lack of interest.

First, you said iPads are the entire market and I just proved that isn’t remotely true, so accept that. Switching up the goalposts to insult people in markets that either don’t have access to iPads or can’t afford them isn’t ok.
Scale of economy isn’t the reason that globally Apple cannot go beyond 40% of that market, it’s a competitive market and Apple would need to sacrifice profit to sell at prices their competitors can to match them at scale. Apple will not be able to meet even their nearest neighbours down from Samsung because they will not scale their soaring profit margin down to match.
If you care the to be honest about subsidies then you may want to ask why Google dominates all Apple products and why Facebook used to - remember when Facebook had its own preferences before being migrated to the app settings? Apple has often subsidised product with brand relationships to certain third-parties to maximise profits.
As to your vague statement about every iPad shitting every competitor that is is bullshit and dismisses all value propositions in favour or brand comfort and some subjective synthetic benchmarks that rarely reflect real world experexperience. In practice I own a really great Lenovo tab that gives better than or equal to current gen iPad Pro experiences for much less. And I get to side load apps and remove bloat and ads at my behest. What do you get on an iPad? Whatever Apple supplies in the AppStore and that’s it. Wipr is ok if you are ok with Safari but you can’t easily or consistently remove ads from other Apps and you can’t recompile them on device to add features or remove other annoying ones. Synthetic benchmarks don’t tell the real story and never have.
Nope, iPads are less than 40% of the global tablet space
The Saudis are never on the right side of anything. They do not give a shit about Palestinians and they never did - this just how they attempt to be a thorn in the side of the US.
Yeah but fuck the Saudis.
I think you have mistaken the author’s intent. The delineation isn’t to say one group is better than the other but rather to illustrate one is more toxic and that some of that toxicity is getting push back.
