Imagine being CEO of one the largest corporations in the US, and prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.

    Tim Cook, and Apple, is supporting a pedophile. Remember that when you walk into an Apple Store, if you can afford to.

      “Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai visited Trump at Mar-a-Lago after the election, and Google donated $1 million to the inauguration fund”

      So is Google and every major company

      I bet most of the people here replying in the comments are typing on what helped pay for that gold plated ass kissing device.

        Is this a “you criticize society yet you participate in it” thing?

        Ya but I am pretty sure Google has done a lot to help Trump. Any big tech company wants to be on the good side of Trump.

        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.
