More reasons for the US government to break them up. Their walled garden kills innovations and competition.
Can you imagine Microsoft stops selling Win11 to the OEM and is only available on their hardware? Same for the app store. Imagine having to buy your games through their store without the ability to side load software?
How come Microsoft gets shit but Apple doesn’t. Fuck Apple.
It’s timing the US doesn’t give a shit about monopolies or whatever now. If Microsoft did what they did now no one wold care.
That’s the unfortunate truth. Fortunately Microsoft ISN’T doing this. Apple and Google seems to be the ones doing most of the evil.
Meanwhile I type this on an absolutely gorgeous Motorola Edge 2023 that costs half the price of either…
The reality is that Samsung doesn’t care. They make iPhones displays for them so they make money either way.
You know how in SciFi movies everyone has the same phone? This is why.
Huh, I always put that down to the fiction part of science fiction 😉 Can you imagine a scifi story where the lead says “oh, sorry, I can’t send you this file cause you don’t have a [brand device]”? 🤣
Sure, a sci-fi comedy.
At some point they have to go on a quest to dig up the coder who wrote a piece of software that stopped working but it’s so old nobody knows hpw to fix it anymore, so they need to do a National Treasure type adventure to find the journals and notes of the guy who wrote ImageMagick.
I’d watch that movie about planned obsolescence and shitty tech infrastructure growing ever-more-fragile.
I’ll buy that for a dollar 😁
There will always be at least one person who doesn’t.
I’ll go live in a shack in the woods cut off from humanity before I ever give Apple a dime of my money.
Yes but the SciFi movies are not about people living in wood shacks so we don’t see them.
I would like to see that sci-fi movie though
