Im not a fan of the non-replaceable parts, but i dont think they did it to force upgrades or anything. They just focus so much on compact designs that at some point they had to do it.
How was the kool-aid? I was gunna try it but you drank it all up.
So people are Nazis for wanting to restrict immigration from Syria?
No, you're nazis when you say things like no Muslims allowed in and let's make a database of the ones who are here. It's not about restricting immigration or not, you could say no Syrians because of what's going on there and that's perfectly valid. It's the blanket Muslim thing which tips the scale, how do you even define muslim? Actual practicing Islamic? From the middle east? Funny name? Brown skin? The Muslims in america are being made into the enemy of the state like Jews were then. It's not far (slippery slope, I know) from that to deport all the Muslims. Most people are like yeah, whatever and don't really give a shit where the trains end up as long as they can go along with their daily business and it's not in their face.
And you think that a country MUST accept any and all immigrants or else it is, by definition, fascist?
If that's based on if someone is a specific religion then yeah. Basically any argument you care to make, replace muslims with jews and tell us you don't sound like a fucking nazi.
This hydrogen atom was just chilling out, not hurting anyone then along comes the scientist and shoots it with a laser completely unprovoked. How long will we let this madness continue?
Their new system is a portable. That should have hit the point home that the new system would not be on par with PS4 horsepower.
Also the "Switch" is more a successor to the portable DS/3DS, where they are still healthy. Nintendo may not say that as the 3DS and Pokemon are whats selling from them this holiday, but make no mistake. Nintendo is done with (traditional) home consoles. The Wii U was its worst selling console and they know they cant directly compete. The main console market (AAA, FPS, etc.) is not even their main target audience. It would be pointless and a waste of their resources to even try.
So three years later you can't get the same or similar in a smaller system? Also this is talking about in docked mode. In hand held mode the performance is considerably worse, 60% worse in the case of the GPU clock speed.
In other news nintendo's new console less powerful than 2/3 year old rivals. No doubt they are banking on mario and mario kart, a zelda game, pokemon and all their other old staples to see them through.....again.
So? Both of THOSE are less powerful than a comparable PC. It doesn't matter. We've hit a plateau where the graphics aren't getting better by leaps and bounds anymore. The PS4, XBox, and WiiU / Switch graphics are "good enough."
They're not less powerful than a comparable PC, hence the comparable. Less powerful than a high end pc yeah, but are you saying graphics should be made for the lowest common denominator because it's "good enough"?
Are you sure you are not an executive/manager at an Apple Store? Because you are all up and down this thread condoning this behavior.
They broke the law. Made it hard for people to take lunch and even penalized them for it. They also didn't pay people properly. If you have no problem with that then you are either A) a paid shill B) a troll.
From a different post he seems to be an employer. What's good for the goose and all that.
They made, at the bare minimum using every assumption in their favor) just shy of 150 million dollars by breaking the law - and we "punish" them by making them give 2 million dollars back.
Yep. You really do have to hand it to them, they've set up an excellent system

We got sued by an engineer who passed his PE three months after being fired for lunch and breaks... because we didn't have proof he took them. (He did take lunch, despite being ineligible for breaks.) We won, but that is the kind of crap you get to put up with as an employer.
If someone is working more than ~4 hours they should get a break. If it's a full day they should get a lunch break. End of story. If you're just working people to the bone because you're legally allowed to then fuck your shitty company. What are they called?
I can't imagine how much it must suck working for Apple with the type of rude assfuck customers they get there.
If I worked at an apple store I would tell people the most retarded shit about the phones to see what they believed. "Oh yeah they have a microwave receptor converter so if you ever lose your charger you can stick it in the microwave for 30 seconds for a full charge" etc..... I probably wouldn't work there long
Confucius say he who fish in other man's well often catches crabs
Confucius say state of pregnancy exist when woman takes seriously something poked in fun.
Confucius say woman who wear G-string, high on crack.
Confucius say man who bounce woman on bedspring this spring, have offspring next spring.
Ah, from that ancient Chinese proverb book, So You Have The Flu, by Sun Tsu.
Or is it too hard to grasp that allowing the future president to write himself a long list of people to dispose of the moment he takes office is a Bad Thing?
But that's his job. Running the executive branch. That's literally what we put him there to do.
Seems to me you put him there to fuck shit up, and that is certainly what you're going to get.

The idea was for a mobile passport app to facilitate checking in at Customs in the airport. I went to the app store and found one in about 30 seconds.
He was disappointed.
Doesn't stop most other app developers.
Fair enough.
So much interesting stuff to explore and try and so many people who want to push the boundaries.
With all due respect, boundaries of what? Talking on the radio?

Google employees always tell you where they work 30 seconds into meeting for the first time. Don't know if it's the same for Apple employees...
If they're anything like their customers then 30 seconds seems like a long time for them.
Or in this case somehow managed to get pecked to death by chickens.

More likely they were about "working lunches" where a meeting or such is scheduled for lunch time and employees are expected to eat while working.
This is people working in the shops, there's no eating while you're trying to upsell.
Like?

Name calling! The cornerstone of every logically-based argument!
He's obviously taking cue from your mangod Trump, it worked so well for him.
Or is it too hard to grasp that allowing the future president to write himself a long list of people to dispose of the moment he takes office is a Bad Thing?

Trash. You are fucking Nazi Trash.
MUFF CABBAGE!!!!
Standard low-IQ response from a leftist.
If they "rebel", he will just shut down the entire department. If they do a job worth doing (energy does not), then he will reform it with new people.
You can ignore reality, but you can not ignore the consequences of ignoring reality. Snowflakes like you will learn this soon. Trump will teach you.
So you can do either exactly what he say regardless or you can fuck off? Is it that it? Because that's not a president, that's a dictator.
