  • I’m not an apple fanboy- in fact I own Android and mostly use windows and Linux. However,

    Apple single-handedly pushed the computer market away from x86 processors. Face ID changed the way people use their devices.

    Their computers, while no longer use upgradable, still last much longer and have higher overall quality than their competition.

    The OS pushes you toward using iCloud, but doesn’t mandate it or advertise everywhere like windows 11.

    The HomePod introduced room-equalizing to the masses and sounds way better than it should for the size.

    The integration between all their products continues to get better. Using an iPad as a second monitor, local processing rather than cloud, actual E2E encryption, while locked inside their bubble, was developed and released 10 years before it became in vogue.

    The list goes on

    Yea, no new devices but I think they are pushing tech forward still. Hard to say they aren’t innovating.




  • Have you read their charter? It literally says so:

    First, they believe in a day of judgement that requires the eradication of all Jews:

    "The Day of Judgment will not come about until Moslems fight Jews and kill them. Then, the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out: 'O Moslem, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him." (Article 7)"

    They will do this by first destroying Israel:

    Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it

    Then they will proceed to do the same with the rest of the world:

    "Zionism scheming has no end, and after Palestine, they will covet expansion from the Nile to the Euphrates River. When they have finished digesting the area on which they have laid their hand, they will look forward to more expansion. Their scheme has been laid out in the ‘Protocols of the Elders of Zion’." (Article 32)"

    Hamas is literally founded with genocide in mind.

    It goes on to say that they will also refuse any peace treaty, and condemn those (such as Egypt) who have made peace or attempt any peaceful resolution with Israel

    Haha! No trump is the muddy cliff. I don’t know what the third option is yet. To be clear, I have plenty of reason to vote. But I also have plenty of reasons to not choose either candidate. Also, I happen to be in a red state which gives all of its electoral votes to one candidate, I will vote for who I want, since the outcome has already been determined.

    Nah, it’s the difference between a grassy cliff, and a muddy one. Doesn’t matter, still a fucking cliff.

    To extrapolate your metaphor, I will vote, but for a third option: a dirt road. Yea I’ll be in the minority, but we are all good as dead anyway since everyone else including my state reps believe one cliff or the other is the path to Valhalla.

    You’re very wrong here. These ships don’t lose speed quickly. They can take MILES to stop. Some of the heaviest vehicles on earth with the most momentum and they are designed for effective displacement.
