Bernie Sanders bemoans Apple's overseas supply chain, tax avoidance strategy
Firstly, the 27" iMac was made in the US last I checked. Secondly, he's a communist, what do you expect? And before some hippies come in spewing that "he's a democratic socialist" crap, Lenin and Stalin claimed the same thing in their early days.

UN high commissioner on human rights throws weight behind Apple in San Bernardino case
Thankfully. If I had my way we'd kick them out of the US entirely.SpamSandwich said:Believe it or not, the UN has no jurisdiction over the US. His opinion is noted. -
Apple, other tech companies decry North Carolina anti-LGBT law
So are Apple and other companies saying that only their opinion matters? Are they better than the voters of North Carolina that wanted this? I thought the left didn't like big business and money in politics?

Apple and the Bot War on Apps
These rants get more nonsensical and pathetic every time one is posted. The app boom is over, just as surely as the Wii shovelware train eventually came to an end. There's simply too much garbage in the Store now, and Apple won't do the needed purging. Will there be the occasional hit? Sure, but not like the old days.
I mean, this entire rant contradicts itself multiple times.

How Donald Trump's election as U.S. President could affect Apple
DED has no interest in being accurate, merely in spewing crap he got from Daily Kos.red oak said:Your obviousluck seething about the election results, being you were so far up the Democrats and HRC's asses
BTW, it's a 10% tax holiday and then 15% going forward on all foreign earnings. Apple will be all over this and will be able to bring $200B back to the US if they wish
More important, it would be a 15% income tax on everything going forward, vs the current 26% Apple has been accruing. It would be a massive windfall and dramaticallly improve operating results of the company going forward. Was this too inconsequential for you to mention in your tirade?

Who has time to read a 650,000 word rant word-for-word? The Macalope manages to take down anti-Apple idiocy in about 750, and he's far more humorous. In the beginning your editorials had value, now they're simply random babbling about perceived slights.DanielEran said:
No, you'll have to read the article before you can summarize it.thewhitefalcon said: Should be easy to point out. But you thought the article was about garbage in the App Store, so maybe you should read it instead.rogifan_new said:So the shorter version is Apple is all about apps not bots therefore apps are good, bots are bad and apps will win out in the end.
Or, to paraphrase Steve:We have to let go of this notion that for Apple to win, [other company] must lose.

Oh, look, more clickbait from DED.
Don't give him the satisfaction, folks. He's not worth it.
