  1. It will cost a lot to Apple, which is my point.

    As for IBM, it will cost them time so we can only wish they'll put even more pressure on Apple about fixing this problem and maybe not letting the industrial designer in charge of fucking everything the next time around. When your engineers tell you "enough is enough" it's time to back off.

    What's his fucking goal, anyway? A paper-thin laptop?

    But the keyboard was still better than the 2016+ MacBook Pros.

    On one hand I agree with you in principle

    I know it's sad, but there's so many people using the word "principal" when they meant to use "principle" that I feel obligated to give you this virtual moderation:

    +1, Proper grammar.

  4. That was not his question, you idiot.

    Me, I'm a fan of the ZX Spectrum +3 because it was the first ZX Spectrum to support 384KB of RAM and microSD cards up to 4MB.

  5. Great, now I have to search for "ten foot pole furry porn" just to see what results I'll get.

  6. You mean all the keyboards that Apple has to repair out of their own pocket?

    I hope it teaches them a fucking lesson about screwing a perfectly good keyboard design just to shave off 1mm of the thickness of their fucking laptops.

    Long live the MacBook Air!

    Slashdot can take the time to add Microsoft-only "window.is_euro_union" shit in their code but they can't support unicode in 2018.

    Oh shit, you said the "app" word.

    Come to think of it, we haven't seen that guy in a while. Maybe he's dead? Or maybe he switched from being "the app guy" to "the trump guy"?

    He was an asshole if you worked for him. But he was also the guy who prevented Jony Ive from making laptops 1mm thinner and needing to change the keyboard mechanisms to unreliable pieces of crap to get that 1mm.

  11. The government is actually ruled by ca$h. You're a dog.

    The logical conclusion is that Dogecoin is the future of money!

    Your comment is also out of order, this is neither of the threads about "Fewer Than Half of Young Americans Are Positive About Capitalism".

    What do you mean? ROT13 or ROT26?

  14. Just put the movies on the 512GB iPhone.

  15. Where in TFS is it mentioned they'll support SD storage?

  16. A computer?

  17. Even if Amazon, Apple and Google sent their smart speakers to my house for free I wouldn't use them.

    Nope, I was wrong. This is a shitty condensed version with a really bad "music".

  22. Oh, a slap fight!

  23. Don't be stupid. In typical Apple style they'll want a lot more profit from that sale.

    I say offer them 600 dollars just to be sure.

  24. No need for a valuation. I'll offer Apple 100 times their own valuation. If what they say is true, they should accept my offer.
