Apple no longer allowed to be shit

[bigtoughralf]

New EU law will prevent Apple from making its money by doing shit things like locking people into its hardware with unique adapters:

That junk is made in China.

Isn't that the factory that includes suicide nets to stop its employees being able to kill themselves?

Presumably they're killing themselves with shame at having made such shit chargers.

And it's one way they can leave the country.

We'd probably need to ask HitRed what their motivations were, I think he's the only person on here capable of speaking to dead people.

[HitRed]

I am alive today just as I was then, so many years ago, so far away from here. I live and see and hear everything around the world. I knew about all this during my Passion as I walked to my death on the cross. I saw everything and felt every pain that ever was to be on my body and in my heart. A very deep and painful experience that I went through to save mankind from sin and death. Not all will be saved. Some have chosen their path and where they will spend eternity. There are some right now trying to drag others with them to the misery that awaits them.

You're confused ralf. I don't think Red is John Edward.

Is that the kid from Sixth Sense? Spoiler alert

I believe Hallie Joe Osmond would be a third seperate person.

Best way to fight Apple and it's bullshit business practices is to advocate, promote and or lobby right-to-repair legislation.

The EU also brought in right to repair laws:

There's hope yet.

is the EU going to allow them to use that pedo scanning bullshit to make sure you don't have any kiddie porn on your apple products still? heard this was going to be a thing a few months ago now - seems a tad invasive, imo...

Spoken like a man who keeps his portable hard drives buried at the bottom of his garden in case the FBI make an unexpected visit.

[riskllama]

i don't have a garden, or an FBI for that matter...but seriously, have you heard anything about this?

[bigtoughralf]

I think I saw a headline. I was fairly whatever about it because I a) don't have an iPhone and b) don't have a phone full of child porn.

But I am a Female Body Inspector
