The 2019 Mac Pro will be what Apple wants it to be, and it won't, and shouldn't, make ever...
macike said:I believe that Tallest Skill has is exactly right.
This seems to be the major problem with Apple and professional hardware, and also explicitly with their professional software, too. Remember Shake? Gone. Tossed to the wind. And the Final Cut/Logic revamp debacle? How long has it taken Apple to restore functionality? Have they even restored all of it yet? Never mind their complete silence on timeframes for the restoration of those features, as well as regular updates for anything else....had better Graphics Cards, and the Apple left them in the dark as far as when/how/and what would be upgraded!
Apple has lost the professional market. It’s just gone. They’re not going to get it back. Not only in hardware, but in software, too. Think of the cost of waiting. Think of the cost of being forced to switch to a PC. Now think of the cost of switching BACK to a platform where you have zero guarantee of hardware support and no knowledge of what software will be usable when. How they expect to maintain a coding base after this five year debacle is beyond me. -
President-elect Trump considers potential Apple manufacturing in US a 'real achievement'

However, I’ll take Trump’s partial base’s economic knowledge to the mathematical assurance that Hillary’s (et. al.) ENTIRE base does not know how the economy works.It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning. – Henry Ford
Who would say they must?Does anyone really believe that Apple is going throw away its investments in the partners that have made them rich?
Over a trillion dollars in loans (ever more of which becoming truant) and a bubble bigger than the world has ever seen. What could possibly go wrong?The auto industry had a record year in 2016
Couldn’t possibly be because uneducated morons who don’t know how inflation works are demanding $15 an hour or anything…Even the fast food industry is looking to cut unskilled jobs with automation and robotics.
Drop all illegal federal energy subsidies (that’s a redundancy; it means all of them) and we’ll see what’s cheaper.Trump promised the Virginia coal miners the same thing, while knowing full well he couldn't deliver. Coal jobs aren't coming back, because coal is becoming more expensive than wind and solar.Take some of that personal responsibility that a certain political party is always saying that it believes in and educate yourself on what you'll be doing in the future, and learn something new (it's really not that scary).
The irony!Change happens; deal with it or suffer.
The days of the unconstitutional madness of “social security” are nearing an end. Best to retask people entirely.The days of working for one company for life, collecting a pension and retiring near palm trees isn't going to get there, for you, unless you make it happen for yourself.

foggyhill said:That's the same fracking argument about sexual harassment or why rapes and sexual assaults in general under-reported.
Yes, the men would lose their jobs, the men would not be believed, the men would be gaslit, etc. That’s exactly right. And even when men don’t rape, being accused thereof gets them the same punishment.The reason its not reported is because THEY would lose they jobs, not be believed by the police, be gasslighted by people like you claiming this is just boys being boys…
Try again with something this side of reality.And if a women said he did it now, would she be believed? No.. Would she demonized even if right? Yes. -

Apple hands out rainbow Apple Watch bands to commemorate LGBT Pride
why- said:have you ever been diagnosed with OCD? because you seem to have this unnatural base need for everything to be a certain way
So stage 1, then.secondly, those quotes are ridiculous
Nope, just prove you wrong. Ever wonder why communism has to be enforced at the point of a sword?I could tell you that communism is the perfect sociological and economical system and you would "ridicule" and "violently oppose" me.
1:the world becomes a lot easier to live in once you realise that as long as your truth brings no harm, there is nothing wrong with it.
Doesn’t exist. There is only truth. 2:your truth
is literally day care-level retardation (definitionally) and as such deserves nothing more than the mockery I’ve just given it, since that statement itself amounts to the intellectual capacity of a large portion of its proponents to defend it. Are you nuts? Moral relativism is soundly false.EVERYTHING IS FINE AS LONG AS IT DOES NO HARM
Exactly. And homosexuality is not part of that manner.As long as a society's people function in the proper manner it is a well-functioning society.
A decent argument against welfare.in fact you could say that they worked better, because everyone pitched in and helped it run smoothly.
Conservatism is fundamentally predicated on the belief that there is a single, objective reality that is intelligible (read: can be understood). This, in turn, leads one to adopt specific codes of conduct and behaviors that we call a moral core.
Leftist thought is fundamentally predicated on the belief that everything is subjective and nothing is objectively true or capable of being understood. This, in turn, leads one to adopt a fluid and contradictory moral relativism.
Leftists often attack conservatives for being hypocritical. Indeed, conservatives can be very hypocritical. Take, for example, anti-drug politicians who abuse alcohol, or so called “free market capitalists” that give subsidies to oil companies. They get attacked for this stuff all the time, and I’d say you’re right to call them hypocrites.
Here’s the kicker: a moral relativist cannot be a hypocrite, because there is no situation where he’s objectively in the wrong, even when he is acting in disagreement with his own “morals.” You can’t call someone a moral hypocrite if they functionally have no morals. So when Hillary Clinton professes to be a feminist while taking donations from regimes that abuse women, or Obama professes to be transparent while obsessing over secrecy, or Michael Moore makes a movie trashing capitalism while making cash hand over fist off it, there’s no problem for them. It’s all relative. They don’t care.
The second big thing–and this is their most beloved tactic–is this: They accuse you of what they are doing to you. Just meditate on that sentence and you’ll start to see it everywhere.

Soli said:So now you equate the natural state of homosexuality with public masturbation, child molestation and rape, bestiality, necrophilia, and incest
We are a civilization. You want to live in nature, go the fuck back to the trees.
1. I doubt it.Many societies have accepted homosexuality as part of nature despite your insistence that they are all degenerates and that it'll be society's downfall.
2. They all fell as a result of it, et. al. Like I said.
In before “Greeks and Romans accepted it” bullshit.
