Comment Re:Apple is for stupid people now. (Score 2) 290

I agree with you that Apple has been changed for the worse greatly by Cook. With Jobs they were releasing something that transformed the world practically every two years. Money was secondary. Now they're just a money-making machine that tries to retain the level of design they had under Jobs, to varied success. But I want an Apple Watch because I don't want to carry a phone any more and it actually replaces a phone. Seriously. I will have no need to carry a phone any more now. That's awesome.

Comment I was skeptical but want one (Score 2) 290

I thought the Apple Watch was just another example of how Apple had gone to hell since Steve Jobs died with their not having a single cool new device since he'd departed in contrast to the years prior where it seemed like something world-changing came out every two years. Apple Watch looked like a joke. But now I do actually want one more than a new phone. I'm sick of phones. At this point I just want the functionality they provide without the necessity of carrying big rectangle around and sliding it in and out of pocket all day. Actually really excited about the watch. Feel like it will liberate me from phones which I've somewhat grown to hate.

Comment iPad Pro (Score 1) 235

How about an iPad Pro? I've basically switched to an iPad Pro. The battery life is insane, the portability and weight are insane, and believe it or not, the speed is insane as well. It's much faster than my 10x as expensive desktop workstation at Lightroom and Photoshop, for example. I'm frankly flabbergasted by its performance every single day. Never going back to traditional computers.

What? I don't even understand what you are trying to say. You sound like you think you might know more about communism than I do even though I grew up in a communist country, was raised by parents who lived their whole lives under communism, and have a detailed knowledge of the history of life here before, during and after communism. How ignorant can you be? It's funny you mention Asia. Look at the capitalist countries Japan, South Korea, Singapore. Are you saying you think life in China, Vietnam, and North Korea is better than life in the others? If so, you are insane. Life in those countries for the most part is largely miserable. You have no idea what you are talking about. Frankly, you disgust me.

Why don't you move to a country that you like more? I ask this sincerely as someone who lives in a former communist country? It's amazing to me how many people complain about their countries while not doing the strongest thing one can do to voice their objection, which is to move. That way you can contribute to a country that you support.
