    OMG they found a messy room visually indistinct from almost any teenagers room. Fire Tim! Get Eddie Cue on the line! SELL the stock!!!
    OMG! I get to live at work and share every minute of my life with co-workers! How Awesome! It's just like being a teenager again! I especially love the prison mattress
    and the luxurious amount of space for me to live! Does it come in get me the fuck out of here? I'm sure they have an open bed if you can hack it.
    A post one would expect of someone who has never been to China.

    Part of this issue is people viewing Chinese culture through a Western lens. These jobs may be rough but they beat working in a coal mine, for one, especially a Chinese coal mine.

    I find it funny how that concept iPhone still has a headphone jack. He should have went all the way.
    Concept is from 2013.

    With Apple among others purportedly demanding even lower prices it's no particular surprise IMO that Pegatron along with other suppliers might tend to put off workplace improvements, ignore some safety issues,  pressure employees on overtime pay,  or put off hourly pay increases. 
    Here's the problem with this report. They blame the iPhone 7, but they're using two years of pay stubs. Is the iPhone 7 so powerful that it forced lower wages for over a year before its release?

  • Tim Cook's fundraiser for presidential candidate Hillary Clinton set for tonight

    I plan to vote for Hillary, so my next comment is not bashing her: it's curious that someone as wealthy as Cook supports Hillary when she is very open about plans to increase taxes on the rich. I guess Cook's motivation is driven by looking at the alternative to Hillary... and deciding that scenario would be much worse (not necessarily in terms of tax policy).
    Believe it or not, some people vote the way they think will benefit society as a whole, not just themselves. Plenty of wealthy people don't think they deserve even more than they already have. Or if you are looking for selfish motivations, Cook may want to repay the party that gave the gay community equal marriage rights
    Hahahahahahaha..haha..hahahaha. That was funny. 

    Leftists vote in their self-interest all the time. They want Big Government to put the chains on them and strip them of their freedom in exchange for 'rights' that aren't rights. Like "free" healthcare, "free" education, etc. To say otherwise is to perpetuate a disgusting lie.

  • Apple suggests five new professional emoji be added to Unicode Standard

    I think we need to dump about 50% of the emoji. There's too many to search through. Yes, I'm aware that people may use the lesser 50%. I simply don't care.
