Enshittifying the hardware to lock the faithful into royalty-producing "Apple-approved" compatible accessories.

That culminates in Liquid Ass, which Saint Steve would have burned to the ground.

Now, pushing ChatGPT for everything - all stuff no one wants.

And somehow, the Tame Apple Press and the Apple Reality Distortion Field will bring forth enough cult members to sell millions of whatever crap the company wants to push on them.

[Remember "More powerful than a supercomputer, right on your desktop" ? Pepperidge Farm remembers. And no, I'm not an Apple fan, at least not the Apple of recent decades.]

Die Elbe/Łobjo in Dresden/Drježdźany wirkt wie ein Realitätsverzerrungsfeld. Sie schafft es immer wieder, Radfahrende am Fluss entlang zu locken. Jedoch führt die kürzeste Radstrecke von Radebeul/Radobyle nach Blasewitz/Błožeńcy nördlich der Neustadt durch!

Tim Apple's retirement announcement reminded me of a saying that is more relevant now than ever.

That would be Iranians firing ordnance that has been obliterated, from weapon systems that have been obliterated, from military sites that have been obliterated? 🤔
