they must be getting some unreal tax benefits from the israeli government

either that or their executives are insane zionist fanatics

or both i guess

or they were just born before like 1980 ish and so the concept just makes sense to them. personally i think we should have just given florida to all of the jews but there ar eprobably some religoious reasons that wouldnt be acceptable

my dad went on a business trip to the Israel Design Center once and he had to wear a kevlar vest and a hard hat in case of mortar/rocket attack. lmao

i can't be bothered to back up this statement with facts, but i'd bet he was in far more danger of being killed by a car (or maybe even plane) accident than any mortar/rocket

maybe cremnob is right re: intel. 5 generations of desktop CPUs show almost no improvement in more gaming. but that's gaming where the GPU is more important i guess.

i'm in and will shoot silver alicorn an email later.

prologue:

i just moved into an apartment and it's basically empty. there's a rule about this apartment, though: only good, well-considered, ethical crap goes in it. like i want to slowly build it into a place that reflects myself and my values rather than just do an ikea run. so for you the gift getter there's basically a chance to buy anything! but also it should not be bad for the planet or whatever, please

turn offs:

novelty items
candy
meat except sea meat (vegetarian lol)

turn ons:

Apple products
cooking/kitchen things
metal cups from asia
alcohol (honestly on a non-drinking binge atm, but it'll pass)

turn ons very much big time:

GTX ~970 (stock speed, blower cooler only, mini PC build)
1440p 144hz monitor
Blendtec Total Blender/Classic (probably buying this on friday though)
A queen size futon
330W power brick for Alienware X51

a list of interests since i don't know if the above says anything useful:

movies with a dystopian future
communism (no relation)
really weird mangas
genre-busting stuff like Watchmen, Evangelion and MGS 2
feminism
Club Monaco
sushi

EDIT:

oh, i'm a web developer
i don't really play video games cause i lack a monitor and mouse
really wanna play metal gear solid 3, 4 and 5 though
clothing size is small to medium tops, size 32 waist, 30 length for pants

apple wants companies to make ios pro software. most ctos are old idiots who have never used a mac but they have iphones and like them. it threatens windows on the enterprise and it helps the iphone.

i mean i didn't ean you have to osx on it but if the ipad pro is going to be anything more than an ipad plus theya re gonna have to keep giving ios more fiel sytsem poo poo, more intra app intregation etc

i mean, stuff theya re kind doing, but we can all see it's becoming less weidly as a mobile os and really blurring the lines between that and a desktop os


welp. if anyone can pull it off itll be apple, but I think its fundametnally messy, in te way that the settings app is alrady a shambles compard to what it used to be

lmao, guy that doesn't understand chips writes about chips, proves that he is an idiot.

quote:

In fact, you could argue that it's more likely that Apple would create an iPad Pro with an Intel chip than a Mac with an Apple chip. Intel really wants in on Apple's iOS business, and if it reaches its goals for the next few years, why should Apple continue to design its own chips? It's a useless expense.

Apple built a single-purpose world class chip design team, and spends billions producing the best mobile chips in the world, but an Engadget writer thinks it's a useless expense.
