Cook praises 'symbiotic' 30-year relationship with China

Any Socialist worth their salt, with two or more brain cells, knows that kowtowing to the CCP is A Very Bad Idea™.
You’re not supposed to deepthroat the boot, Timmy, only lick it until you can find an alternative. -

Apple employees face reprisals, possible termination over return to office policy
9secondkox2 said:It’s not a reprisal if your employer tells you to work at the office and you refuse.That’s grounds for termination.If the job description says remote or temporarily remote, great. Once it shifts back to “on site,” you work on site or lose the job.That’s how things work in the real world.You do t make up your own job description unless you own the company.
You shouldn't talk about 'the real world' as if you're accusing Apple employees or others of not knowing what it's like to work in it. The hours put in, the missed weekends, the missed social time, family time, lost time due to travel back and forth. The unyielding company towards you, but the company expecting everything from you. Yeah, that's the real world, and not just at Apple. But don't even imply that employees are somehow petulant for pushing back against all of that one-sided bullsh*t. -
Ugreen's new docking station can extend M1 Mac displays
AI_lias said:Good news, to right the wrong done by Apple by crippling these to only one external monitor. They should have also gone further and include inputs for two computers, so you can switch between two connected computers. It's surprising there's no good solution out there for TB or USB switching between two computers and one dock.
"Cripple". The M1 was always intended to be an entry-level product. It's not crippling a product to spec it to an intended market. -
BougeRV Yuma 200W CIGS solar panel review: lightweight, rollable, durable
JP234 said:Dubious about the utility of a 200W (in direct sunlight) solar array for over $600, including sales tax. 200 watts won't even get your Tahoe's battery charged. Your microwave is probably at least 1,000 watts.
You'd have to do a lot of "glamping" to get any value from it." And not many people are going to lug it around on foot, it's just too big and clunky. If you leave it at your campsite when you go fishing or hiking, someone's going to steal it.
Other than that, sure, I've love to try out a demo for free, (on the 50-75 days a year that Chicago sees the sun).
And with windmills you'd never be able to watch TV unless there's a breeze, right?
