Seriously? Is this meant as some sort of last-minute Christmas joke??? Do these idiots have nothing better to do? They obviously just don't know how to properly use their Mac and/or use the proper software, then go whining like a bunch of self-absorbed Millennials to the media, FFS...

Just the Java versions of Minecraft are affected. The bedrock versions are fine. So mobile, console and Win10 versions are good. There is no bedrock version for Macs as Microsoft will not allow the iOS versions to run on ASi Macs. Java versions will not cross play with the bedrock versions. 

OMFG, do everyone a favour and never speak of anything technical again! This is so incorrect, not funny...

Go to ArsTechnica, read the two articles there, educate yourself.

OMFG, this piece of WOKE human waste needs to crawl back under the rock she came from!

Having worked in retail 12 years ago, I can tell you it's always been a royal shit show of disrespectful, self-important, self-absorbed assholes who come in on an HOURLY basis sometimes, and working retail requires a VERY thick skin, of which MANY people these days just don't have for various reasons, and the pandemic just amplified this 1000x over, as people are routinely losing their shit every day more and more.

As for management, this doesn't surprise me one bit, and in fact is expected. This is NOT a defence of Apple in any way, shape, or form, but rather trying to point out that bad managers have become a pandemic in and of themselves. I now work for a university, and the managers here are even worse than those on sales floors. Think of them as the asshole customers on the other side of the counter.

Yes, Apple being the most valuable company on the planet should definitely be paying their employee more...
Yes, Apple should be doing everything they can to reign in bad actors in management at ALL levels of the company...

However, throwing money at this, and censuring "bad apples" won't solve the greater issue, and that's the public behaviour. Until people learn those long-lost social attributes like respect, calmness, and understanding, retail will continue to be one of the most brutal occupations you can be in. And things won't remotely get better until this pandemic is behind us, and the shipping crisis is resolved, both of which now look like they'll be with us a LONG time.

This will also continue to be an issue until the social axiom of profit at all costs of all modern companies is excised in favour of more ethical business models, and people who are the quintessential BMW-driving douchebags who always keep getting promoted to management because they rake in the dough, is stopped.

Here's my bottom line on this...

All these "woke", entitled and self-flagellating CEO scum saying what they say, makes me want to buy Apple versions of these products even MORE than theirs, because I sure as fuck won't support such scumbags with my hard earned cash. Not that Apple needs my cash, but at least they don't act like this, and actually put out RELIABLE products that WORK!
