Idk about fitting in. Most people are just lazy and unimaginative (me) and aren’t trying to improve something that has worked pretty well for them.

Warren extracted the value out via buybacks and dividends and now he’s slowly getting out without flooding the market with shares.

Here’s where Cook completely blew it…..

quote:

He (Jony Ive) and legendary Apple CEO, Steve Jobs, worked hand-in-hand on the company's products. Ive left the California-based tech firm after cracks appeared in the relationship with Jobs' replacements.


I think ‘cracks appeared’ was because Cook’s ego didn’t like Jony Ive being seen as the genius of Apple after Jobs died.

The Apple board is being stupid to not push Cook out.

Apple has always been an overpriced hustle looking for its next mark.

All you have to do is turn off the permissions for 3rd party apps and make it to where only Google has access to the data just like Apple gets the data from iPhone users.

This is one of my favorite quips of the iPhone fans. Android has done all kinds of things first that Apple has these big press events to announce as these huge innovations while Android/Google had already done it.

Here's an article of 10 examples:

I've seen a lot of stuff from people saying that, but a lot of other people saying that Ive leaving is the best thing to ever happen to Apple so they can abandon form over function and start really developing shite again.

The problem is that they just don't have a visionary anymore, Cook is not one.

I would argue air pods and the apple watch are great products. Nothing completely revolutionary, but for what they make.. everything is high quality.

I still have a mid-2010 iMac that I use every day and its never been upgraded.

I dont understand how companies are still trying with glasses, and even VR headsets.




i actually know quite a few people with the rayban metas.

Android innovates all the time. Gemini is so far ahead, Apple is joining it.

You are the one that claimed Android never innovated. I just posted evidence to the contrary.
