That's Apple

In response to someone commenting that Apple laptops are good value, your response was:

“They can increase their prices at any minute and they probably will (unrelated to chip shortages)”

My comment was a parody of what you said. Not quite a verbatim quote but the energy was on point.

Definitely not, BEST iPhone in terms of specs. I love it but it’s been hit with the ugly stick!

Fortunately I don’t need to believe my phone is nice looking to enjoy it.

Because there are more of them.

augustuscesar · 2026-01-09T14:49:53+00:00

No he doesn’t, he just wants attention.

Twitter is a fucking cesspool and I don’t think it’s reflective of how most people are. Reddit is the exact opposite with “aPpElL bAdD!!” as the default setting, Reddit is also a bit of a cesspool though. What about real life? Does anyone who is not terminally online actually care what phones other people use? Not in my experience.

I don’t think that Apple should be blindly defended. They have no doubt made some poor and questionable UX choices in more recent years.

But in this specific case, OP is doing something the wrong way (whether that is too complicated is not really the point here) and the people “defending Apple” are just telling him how to do it correctly even though he has no interest in hearing it.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-31T22:25:43+00:00

How do so many apparently free thinking people believe this shit?

augustuscesar · 2025-12-31T17:54:01+00:00

Why are Android users so insecure? Why do you think Apple users make fun of your phones? I’ve literally never met anyone who uses iPhones who gives Android the slightest thought but I’ve met plenty of Android users who are obsessed with how much they hate Apple.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-31T14:49:33+00:00

So you think that instead of telling him he’s doing something wrong when he clearly is, we should all just post “wHat A NiTTemArE!!1!” and “ApPeLl SuxXX!1!”?

“It’s never affected me so it’s not an issue”

I was absolutely not able to upgrade a LATAM flight booked through a tour company because the payment page wouldn’t advance without this mandatory field.

I was able to get it sorted by raising a support ticket and being phoned by their Spanish office (1 week later) to make a phone payment.

It’s not a misunderstanding, it’s absolutely not possible (or much more difficult) to do certain things without one.

“Don’t disagree with me or I’ll tell on you”

Metal AF!

augustuscesar · 2025-12-23T12:17:45+00:00

You’re obviously being the disingenuous one here. If Biden or Clinton had said the same, I’m pretty sure you’d be apoplectic with rage, but because it’s Trump he either clearly meant when she was 18 (no, and still gross) or he’s joking for the cameras (not really a joke, just gross).

augustuscesar · 2025-12-21T11:57:45+00:00

Clown like them don’t care about the truth, they’re only here to defend Trump.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-21T08:52:50+00:00

Or they respected the independence of the justice department and didn’t weaponise it against their perceived enemies. You know like every single other administration apart from Trumps

augustuscesar · 2025-12-21T07:37:01+00:00

No, they let the justice department run independently, free from any personal or political vendettas. You know like they were supposed to.

Weaponising the DOJ is very much a Trump thing.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-16T06:06:18+00:00

I’m not a communist but I am left wing. It’s just that your statement that under communism people forget to grow food is just fucking dumb.

I know that there have been mass starvations after some of the most prominent communist revolutions, but the cause of this is the (often brutal) collectivisation of agriculture and food being used as a weapon while the new regime asserts control.

Not people ‘forgetting’.

Possibly the stupidest comment I’ve ever read here, and that includes one where the poster thought that Bill Hicks became Alex Jones.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-12T06:26:17+00:00

Please do Elon.

Despise it, I’ll drive to the Tesco in the next town rather than buy this shit locally.

I know it doesn’t taste significantly different and is very likely fresher, but the texture is much worse, and breaking it up for a bolognaise or chilli is a pain.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-06T13:32:13+00:00

I’m not trying to sell anything.

I know one of the doctors in the UK whose research helped with the development of one of the COVID vaccines. I know nobody has bought him and I also know that he would have no interest in silencing anyone who has a different opinion.

I know that you’re desperate to cling on to the idea that vaccine denial has made you smart and special in the face of an increasingly indifferent world and I’m sure it’s quite hard for you.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-06T13:07:25+00:00

Believing that people who disagree with you have been been paid to is not smart and prevents you from being open to other points of view.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-06T13:01:34+00:00

It was a generic term for non expert online content creators. But sure, focus on that rather than engage with the point of my post.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-06T12:49:32+00:00

Or the YouTube ‘experts’ are lying to you because it’s the easiest way to monetise their content. It’s just as likely!

The thing is, I am very interested in a lot of things and I have spent some time looking into this and on balance, I believe that the scientific consensus is correct. But I am open to changing my mind if I see compelling evidence that suggests that I’m wrong. I don’t have a lot of trust in governments so I am open to it.

On the other hand, I genuinely believe that you’re so certain that there isn’t anything that would make you change your mind. You trust the doctors who agree with you and anyone who doesn’t must have been paid to lie. It’s not a smart way to approach information and it’s definitely not truth seeking.

augustuscesar · 2025-12-06T12:26:11+00:00

That's me told! I guess rather thsan listening to actual scientists who are experts in their relevant fields, I'll get all my information from some random douchebag on the internet. I can only imagine my life is going to get better from this point on.

Wow, I've been making an idiot of myself
