Third party stores are a real hassle when it comes
to refunds. Apple App Store refunds occur within 48 hours.
Third party requests for refunds take forever and it’s hard to deal or find their customer service department.

Not sure where you got this from. Got a refund on the Epic Store within 24 hours.

“We don’t have anything to show for in June in respect to useful AI, Tim. We now support a new cool cartoony variety in Image Playground, but that’s it.”

”What about Vision Pro?”

”We have 16 active users now. Not exactly great ROI, Tim.”

”What we could do is skin our operating systems with the Vision Pro OS look, to get some value out of the R&D. It’ll distract our user-base from the lack of innovations. Frosted glass, please.”

What I love about this narrative style is that it completely ignores decades of Apple history and creates a magical reality in which things just happen on a whimsical thought.

sure Apple has been working on overhauling the user experience stack with swiftUI and it would make sense at some point they’d want a new look to streamline that and show off what it capable of. 

But hey nope Apple has the power of whimsy….
I’d have thought they’d use it to create an amazing robot machine that sits in each store and recycles your existing device in front of your eyes in to a brand new thing. 

I was sarcastically joking, to suggest a meeting at the coffee corner during lunch break. I’m just shooting the shit 💩

If that's true the tariff won't stand up in Court. You can't tariff people you don't like. The Constitution has a thing about Equal treatment. 

If one thing has been proven is that the US has very weak filters in place to keep a democracy, a democracy. I fear at some point a civil war may be the only option for true and lasting change. God forbid that ever happens.

In less than a week, Apple has proved to be extremely vulnerable. 

Its supply chain is under attack by tariff's.

Its flagship product is under attack by its former star employee.

Its AI is nowhere to be found.

Apple is under enormous pressure and let's see how M. Cook can address it. 

There's a bunch of kids on this forum disliking everything they don't want to hear versus what they don't agree with. You are right, Apple is in a tough spot. Why would any adult user of this forum 'disagree' with a simple fact like this? No, instead they 'dislike' the comment because it's not the reality distortion field they feel comfortable with. That attitude feels very MAGA to me.
