blastdoor said: When I first read that Apple executives wouldn’t be talking to John Gruber this year (https://daringfireball.net/linked/2025/05/29/the-talk-show-live-tickets-2025) I interpreted it as a snub. But now I wonder if the Apple exec…

So investors are even getting bored with TACO trades. I guess, those who want to leave the US markets are already out, waiting to return once the US to put that convicted felon into prison or the nut house.

I pulled my investments, money and accounts out the US in preparation for the current idiot ... in December .. and plan to keep my money out of the US and away from US companies for the foreseeable future. I don't like to deal with idiots, that e…

Takes me back to the 20th Anniversary Mac (yes I'm that old), that made it as a (Dis)Honourable Mention in PCWorlds "Worst Tech Products of All Time" feature in 2006. Overpriced, underperforming and finally killed by Steve togehter with that "damn …

Finance people are parasites to society. The unsocial welfare kings and queens of the 21st century.

If I have to go outside of the Apple Ecosystem to make in-app payments I re-think my intention to spend money on that. Why!? 1. Because it usually is a pain in the a... 'behind' to cancel a subscription outside of the Apple ecosystem. So I rather a…

So most of these analysts haven't considered the growing anti-US sentiment outside of the US. Do they really think this will not negatively impact Apple sales outside of the US!? Sounds a bit naive.

Makes so much sense to not chip from China ... then again, tomorrow the orange clown in the White Power House might figure this out and also increase tariffs on India, Vietnam etc. It's about time Apple removes it's focus from the US market and fin…

Of course companies will benefit. Prices will rise and US buyers will learn to accept this. Don't forget that over 67% voted for tarrifs in the 2024 elections (Yes I always assume non-voters agree with the winner, otherwise they would have voted dif…

Can the US please stop boycotting Apple NOW! (Or at least shut up when the EU does the same)

This is laughable. Apple has rarely delivered all it's feature to EU users (eg. Apple News is not available to most EU citizens). Lot's of other features (e.g. TV+, Fitnes) came later long before the EU did get involved, quite often they never came.…

Why should this be a tentpole feature pulling buyers to become/or stay in the Apple hardware buyers!? You can watch these shows on several SmartTVs for a long time already and they've also released TV+ on Android. So no specific reason to stay. I d…
