I can probably kill my social credit with Apple instantly by just pulling that old iPod Touch 3 out of the drawer and turning it on. Proabably, though, the Safari on it is incapable of connecting to apple.com.
At my new job, I work 8-5 with an hour off for lunch. I learned very fast that working past 5 is not possible. The owner wants to shut things down and lock up at 5.
I work at a small electronic manufacturer these days.
Apple spent many millions of dollars trying to come up with a new OS for the Macintosh that had preemptive multitasking, like Windows NT at the time did.
In the end, they gave up and let themselves be taken over by NeXT, and adopted the NeXT OS which was a unix clone.
At the time of the MacOS 9/OSX convergence, Apple truly did have a bankrupt bunch of morons in charge of software.
The only reason the Wintel monopoly ever came to be was because Apple sued all of Microsoft's competitors out of business. They ran the GEM desktop and Geos out of operation. They then handed the Windows mantle to Microsoft by losing the look-n-feel lawsuit. By then the market was wiped clear. It was either Mac or Windows.
Microsoft embedded IE because it made complete sense. They had explorer.exe already, it was an act of cluefulness to make it web-savvy.
And Netscape at the time had plans to continue to release their 'low cost' browser technology, with proprietary hooks that only their httpd provided. They wanted to own the web with proprietary extensions and make the web the application platform, supplanting all desktops. They were not golden saviors trying to rescue the world from anything.
Whenever I install NetBSD one of the first things I do is build SeaMonkey from source. This builds a good foundation of dependencies for a modern desktop. Usually, I then build fvwm2, so I have a modern window manager, too. The tab window manager (twm) is a built in part of the X11 system, but it's kind of primative.
At this point I imagine bottles of asprin say "If you have a headache while using this product, consult a physician. Do not use if you are susceptible to mortality."
At this point any over-the-counter medication has so many warnings and cautions on the label that the label wraps all the way around the bottle with warnings.
If you want to find out how many of the pill you should take (the actual usage recommendation) you need to peel the label back and scan the REST of the warnings wrapping down the BACK of the label to some small print at the very bottom that says how many pills to take.
Be thankful you don't have CenturyLink, where you can request a limited low-cost Landline plan, but they plain ignore your order change and just continue on with the high cost plan you wanted out of.
I don't owe money to CenturyLink any longer for service I didn't use at all for several months before they finally stopped pretending I had ordered it. I 'owe' money to some collection agency they sold my 'debt' to.
Smash isn't the sort of game I would ever want to play in the first place. I am holding on and waiting for the new Animal Crossing to come out on Switch.
Go to any low-common-denominator retail store like Target or Walmart, though. Try to find a quality pair of wired headphones. I am sure you can special order them from places on the web. They've essentially disappeared in regular retail spaces.

He's busy flipping around in the bottom of the boat. And wondering why he wasn't even considered worth throwing in the live well.

Hey, Apple is required to do this kind of thing in China, why not make use of the tech elsewhere, too?
We wouldn't want Apple to fall behind and not have this kind of tech developed, tested, and ready for when it becomes mandatory.
Correct. And again, it has nothing to do with health care.
Walmart employees, however, don't hover around in the parking lot and steal merchandise from my cart as I'm putting it in the car.
Probably, deny your claim.
Life Insurance has nothing to do with socialist health care systems. You have to be dead before you can collect. That isn't exactly health care.

The ideology that Ford implemented is called Taylorism.

Apple isn't a good enough software company to build code for an open platform. It's much easier when you have a minuscule install base to support.
"Any PC that was supported by Vista can run Windows 10"

Hint: here on Slashdot you can create a '.signature' so you don't have to type your name at the bottom of your posts.
Oh, and you forgot to include the body of your post in the above.

Thanks, Apple legal team. You fuckers.

Your mom's potting shed has to be kinda cramped, you punk.

Do you even know what the term 'asshat' means?
