As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

when my dad was in college in the 70s he somehow got a super deal on a bunch of cans that had been in the supermarket when it flooded, so all the labels had melted off. the food inside was fine but nobody knew what they were any more. but hey it was just pennies per can! so for like a month he ate random luck-of-the-draw canned whatever for dinner. apparently it was mostly kidney beans and peaches in syrup.

i wish stores would still do poo poo like that

oh no, some nerdlords who complain about every product are also complaining about this product, the company must be doomed

it's a good product and the market loves it. i don't know why we don't make a smaller form factor for the people with hang-ups about size since we're apparently fine with a pretty broad product line, but personally i switched from a 5s to an x last year and can't imagine voluntarily going back to that screen size again

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:
1 NEVER TRUST ANY RICH PERSON.
2 NEVER HIRE ANY RICH PERSON.
BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC

making a small phone is harder than making a big phone, they get worse battery life and people will get pissy if you charge more for the small phone than the big one

apple would have to plummet historically hard to be worse than that

the iphone is most of the business still though (58%, but you pretty much have to add a lot of the 18% services on top of that, as they are for the most part intertwined with the ios ecosystem), and if they gently caress up a generation bad enough things will get iffy pretty quick. sure they have a lot of cash, but if the iphone sales tank the stock price will tank, and most likely there will then be an immense pressure for dividends or buybacks

the mac business is not going to go away easily, but there is a lot of room for a pretty dramatic fall from grace
