Get Away From Me With Your Freedom Bullshit
Someone's always bitching about Apple and "control."
Get the fuck out.
Think about all the things in your life that you need to have control over. Pick a tough one. Wouldn't it be nice to not be in control? That's one of the big reasons the iPhone is fucking everywhere.
So you can't meticulously manage running processes. So you can't expand the big 32GB . So it doesn't have a fucking FM radio (really?). So you can't put whatever you fucking want on it. So you can't tweak every little detail about how it works and looks.
I know what my iPhone does and how it behaves, what to expect from it, just like <i><font color="red">I use these tags because I know what they do and how they behave.</font> It works perfectly 95% of the time, and that's a hell of a lot better than a lot of other shit.
Open (as in the recent commercialized usage) for the most part is bullshit. I don't want to have to choose between music players, I just want to know how my one works and what it does. Same for apps – at least the ones I keep on my iPhone. I'd rather have my expectations met and exceeded, than have to Google for why some built-in Google app is giving me shit.
If there's one company I wouldn't mind ruling the country, it's Apple. Ugh, can you imagine the FSF pulling a coup d'état? You think it takes forever to get good Bills passed, just you fucking wait. And there'd be data all over the goddam place. You could't find shit without messing with a hundred settings or knowing regular expressions.
It'd be great. Just wake up one morning and Apple has taken over. Ring ring.
"Oh yeah? Apple's running the government now? How about that. Wait, is this gonna delay the iPhone 7? Shit now that fucking sucks. So there's only one health insurance carrier now? They're pretty good? You had me at "simple" and yeah I'll take it. Better than what I got. Hey do you think they could put a Retina Display on the next iPad? Because it looks like absolute ass now. It fucking does. March 2011? Well I figure I'll have the $900 by then, right?"
