The previous owners of Twitter must be laughing their asses off.

The previous owners of Twitter are busy figuring out how to create the next disinformation center of the world. Twitter was never about money, and still isn't.

So Elon's new strategy is to prosper by suing the only Twitter users he has left?

Yeah that's definitely what the article said.

The product just doesn't make any sense. The iMac comes from a completely different time. A time where the look and feel of the iMac was a breathe of fresh air to computing, and was one of the few computers average people would actually want to look at in their homes. Those days are long gone, and a giant metal all-in-one Mac is huge burdern to bear. Moving it around is impossible. Getting service or support for it is impossible. Selling it (shipping it) down the road is impossible. It's wildly impractical. And the display itself will outlast the computer inside, turning it into a giant paperweight that can't be repurposed. I still have iMacs sitting in boxes in the garage because I don't know what to do with them. Can't reuse them for anything, and can't bear to just throw them away.

Displays on the other hand can be reused for a long, long time. I can't even count how many times I have packed an old display away in a closet only to drag it out again for some purpose at a later time.

The Mac mini/Mac Studio/Mac Pro approach to Apple desktops is how it should stay, and Apple should devote its efforts to making better displays, at varying sizes and resolutions.

I knew these could be fitted with prescription lenses, but I didn’t know you could wear them with glasses too. Was this already common knowledge?

you can’t wear them with glasses?

Of course not. They are form fitting goggles, there is no room for a pair of glasses. They require extremely expensive prescription lens inserts.

Yes worked great for the Apple Watch Gold. Makes sense, if you don't want to sell too many of these.

More like, they know they won't sell many, so they have to do something to make it difficult to acquire, since demand alone won't.
