Beast of Bourbon posted:i just purchased a $29.99 USD adapter that goes from Thunderbolt 2 (the apple monitor cable) to Thunderbolt 3 aka USB-C so that i could make my apple thunderbolt monitor connect to my pc. in addition, i had to buy a thunderbolt 3 expansion card specifically for my motherboard ($59.99). lol why the gently caress would you use the Thunderbolt Display (iOS capitalized that for me, haha) on a PC

mostly the lesson is that the good ones are cheap now, so it really is stupid to nickle-and-dime yourself into a panel ruined by creaking plastic and spastic interface logic

another prototype video from Sunny Dicks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eJZH-nkKP8 it says a lot about the clickwheel version that forestalls interface was picked even though it was much more primitive in every way aside from the ui paradigm

Rate these ideas to revitalize with some old blood: * rehire Forstall. this might involve acquiring Snapchat  * get Jean-Louis Gassée back, buy up the Haiku project, plus BeOS from Access * Tony Fadell is probably not doing anything right now * what does Woz even do these days? nah but having C-Fed in charge is probably the future, and the right way to go

poty posted:buy tesla and make elon musk ceo. also buy sony The thing about Apple as a company is there's a weird sort of hagiography of its execs that's especially pronounced, even among Silicon Valley stories. but I guess many of these people really were so good that they were indispensable? the whole NeXTSTEP acquisition for the sake of Jobs, and the dramatic turnaround, really provides justification for those personality cults. there's something about Apple that's always looking back fondly at golden ages So Tesla doesn't count, they're the future. But sure, buy up '80s Sony if they can get the ghost of Akio Morita

here's hoping that Evan Spiegel's Steve Jobs worship and assholishness aren't just cargo culting but he really is a visionary product sperg, and Snap Inc. is NeXTSnap
