That's cool and I can respect that, definitely. I just don't really appreciate having to read the same bullshit argument for 20 years that isn't even close to true, about Apple products. You know better. Find a better argument.

For the price they should be nice, and they are, but they are consumer level products in my opinion. I've used them before and they're perfectly fine, just pricey. I think the original poster though is more concerned about the apparent fawning of Tim Apple over Trump.

There isn't any actual fawning here. Tim Cook is just holding his nose and doing his fucking job to save his company from hundreds of billions in idiotic tariffs. He's doing the bare minimum.

Apple is the third most valuable company in the world with a market cap $3.164 trillion. They could fight him if they wanted to, but it would take some personal pride on Tim Apple's part. If Tim Apple has no personal pride why should give him any benefit of the doubt. Fuck him.

I don't have a problem with you, and should we really be concerned about Tim Apple showing us who he is?

I built my own dual boot system so I can natively boot into Ubuntu and the Windows portion is pretty much a gaming rig. We have consumer level products for a reason, building your own machine isn't for everyone.

So in other words you did 15 minutes of assembly using a set of very very easily-assembled parts that others built. I'm sorry. Building a PC is not terribly impressive. Don't pretend you are Edison. That shit is trivially easy these days.

It was about two to three hours, don't pretend your macs aren't built by political prisoners. 😁

BTW, who built all the parts you assembled into a PC? Let me give you a hint. It wasn't folks that are all making a living wage.

By the time I brought up I built my own machine I was in the process of cutting you some slack, shithead. People like you will be running the party in 2028 which is why we're absolutely fucked.

You probably should keep going with your first instinct, then. Sounds like it was a good one. I won't be "running" any party at any point. I've got a lot of concerts to do plus a "real" job. You will have to find someone else to blame for whatever bad decisions Dems make next.

Seriously, good luck with your concerts.

Political prisoners. I'm aware. You know what, fuck you. This is what I get for giving you the benefit of doubt. You seem like mainstream Democrat because you're as unlikable as me. Motherfuckers like us go us here, you'd think with everything going on you'd learn to STFU, but you're a Democrat.

You can say "fuck you" all you like, but I'd rather you just support your argument better. What does my political alignment have to do with any of this?

I'm not really interested in fighting people in opposition to Trump, even if I don't like them personally. I'm sure I make you feel the same. Sorry I let this get heated.

Try backing up that argument. And oh! Two hours! Gosh. That completely transforms your argument into something reasonable. Only no, it kinda doesn't.
