Secondly, if morons don't like dark chocolate bars then it's not the duty of the candy companies to taint their dark chocolate with milk, it's the morons who should buy milk chocolate bars instead.
Still hoping Apple brings back a 17" model at some point.
1. I don't think it will ever happen. Tim Cook seems to hate Macs and only uses an iPad. 2. Even if they did bring back the 17" MacBook Pro, it's going to have that awful, fragile, no-keys-travel keyboard with crap butterfly switches that fail either from dust, heat or manufacturing defects.
If you want to talk about dumb HIG things Apple's done, I'd start with the convention that half the menu options change if you hold the "option" key, essentially making you have to search through a second set of menus to find a particular feature.
It's even more insane because there is usually no indication whatsoever that holding "option" will give you more choices.
Incompatible may have a precise meaning, but only nerds and tech-oriented people know its meaning.
Almost every other gadget on the market has been compatible with other brands: cassette tape, VHS, DVD, Blu-Ray, etc.
You will now point out "VHS vs Beta" of course, and you may also mention "HD DVD" and especially game consoles. But remember that a lot of people back then never heard of Beta and a lot of today's users never heard of VHS either. HD DVD was such a failure that most people never heard of it.
There's still people who can't figure out why they can't connect their "yellow, red and white cables" into their HDMI-only TV. Hell I've seen someone try to connect those cables into the component inputs of their TV "because the connectors fit so it can only be the correct inputs".
To most people, a computer is a computer and a smartphone is a smartphone.
This proposal calls for solutions that enable law enforcement investigations to perform forensic analysis on blockchain transactions.
Oh sure. There's a special kind of maths that only allows law enforcement people to de-anonymize encrypted data. That kind of maths is not accessible by the general public nor the bad guys.
Then Firefox grew where it started to be too big, that is where Google Chrome came in (at around the same time Safari came in for Apple also based on WebKit)
I don't know which parallel Universe you come from, but Safari pre-dates Chrome by more than five years. Also, Google used WebKit, Apple's fork of KHTML, until Chrome version 27. Starting with Chrome 28, it used Blink as its rendering engine which is Google's fork of WebKit.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... January 7, 2003, at Macworld San Francisco, Steve Jobs announced that Apple had developed its own web browser, called Safari. It was based on Apple's internal fork of the KHTML rendering engine, called WebKit.[9] The company released the first beta version, available only for Mac OS X, later
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... The browser was first publicly released on September 2, 2008 for Windows XP and later, with 43 supported languages, officially a beta version,[33] and as a stable public release on December 11, 2008.

That was not my own metaphor as I was not the OP.

Dark chocolate bars are not supposed to have milk...
No, that's called kidnapping.
Did they try using 1.7 gigaasm instead?
How else will I run Linux on my SEGA Genesis?
Oh wait, x32, not 32X.
Carry on.
So they partnered with Japan for the blurring technology?

You mean like the fucking idiots who don't put the cancel button on the left like they should?
You could also call them "a bundle of wood sticks".

Which one really is safer?
So the registrar got fooled but somehow it's the linux community who's at fault?
You don't think you've never gone to Linux.org
Is that a new form of double-negative?
It's the kid version of unbox therapy.
I thought it was something on Netflix...
UPS has been using electric-assist tricycles for a while in Europe.

Idiots.
There's also this gem:
"Of course I'm paranoid, everyone's trying to kill me!" - Weyoun (Star Trek: Deep Space 9)
The way you wrote it, if someone is after you then it negates your paranoia.
The actual quote is:
"Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you." — Joseph Heller
I think Safari for Windows required iTunes and installed Bonjour, a networking component or something.

Check out Ripple. They signed contracts with banks all over the world months ago.
Nope, those are called tribbles.
