Next up is Tim apple announcing his conversion therapy was successful and that he will now be marrying a blonde fox news anchor on the white house lawn. He’ll then run for Lindsey Graham’s senate seat and carry on the tradition of being the most closeted man in the Senate… And the world.
When Lindsey Graham was asked who his first lady would be should he ever win the presidency, he replied… “My sister”.
Just can’t take those swinging bachelors off the market… one at a time ladies.
Apple is just like the rest of big tech. They tried to play it as if they were the ethical one, but in the end all these private corpos are just the same.
Wow and I thought this genocidal slave-labor corporation really cared… \s \s \s
- Rotten to the Core: How the Gaza genocide has revealed anti-Palestinian racism at Apple
- 7 Apple suppliers in China have links to forced labor programs, including the use of Uyghur Muslims from Xinjiang, according to a new report
- Apple knew a supplier was using child labor but took 3 years to fully cut ties, despite the company’s promises to hold itself to the ‘highest standards,’ report says
Tim Apple, Nazi collaborator and sympathizer.
Trying to get on president musk’s good side
Cowards
What the FUCK, Apple?!
At least the mask is off. Apple, Google, Meta. None of them care about anything but profit and there isn’t a value they aren’t willing to compromise on if it makes the line go up.
Imagine believing that these companies ever work masks.
They invited Mother Earth herself to announce the latest iWhatever on stage last year. They’re absolutely covered in masks.
You sound surprised…
I wonder if they will trash Pride.
I sound pissed off
I wanted to point out that it’s as futile as shouting at the sun for rising again and shiting into your eyes through the window and then I realised how often I do exactly that and now I’m 100% fine with your comment.
Edit: I meant to write “shining” but what’s done is done.
All in bed together. Didn’t they both attend Mar A Lago? No way they’re going to separate.
That ring, it feels nice to kiss it - Tim Apple
Not that ring… The other ring… - Tim Apple
The brown ring
I guess a lot of good people will ditch Apple now, right? RIGHT?
For other potentially worse manufacturers. I hate how far it’s all gone, but even buying a used/secondhand device is empowering the prior own to support one of these manufacturers.
I’m looking for silver linings and I suppose the marketing people at these companies are much less stressed to have to keep Googling, “how to pretend to give a shit about fellow humans” every time they need to produce a few hundred characters.
Which phone brand is recommendable at the moment? Fairphone uses android, which can hardly be trusted.
Google Pixel + GrapheneOS
Also, if you think Apple’s completely closed source software is more trustworthy than Google’s mostly open source software… LOL
Do things like banking and MFA apps work? I have to have Duo for work
For some it works, for me it doesn’t and graphene is detected as an unsupported OS.
Not sure, I’ve been looking at Graphene myself but haven’t used it. Just passing on what I’ve seen.
also, idk how true this is, but ive seen that google sells pixels at a loss when they’re on sale (they expect to make back the money by spying on you)
so if you were to get a pixel while it’s on sale and install grapheneos on it, not only would you get a nice phone with a secure os, but you’d do so while costing google money. win win win!
Well, the point is I do not trust either. I am on apple now, but my experience with android is that there are apps you cannot uninstall.
On the other hand I have once tried a custom rom, but it was not a great experience. I do think I will need to try this again.
Custom ROMs are all different. Some suck, some don’t. I’ve heard very good things about Graphene. You can even install it from the web in a couple clicks.
Fairphone uses their own custom OS to degoogle things and help ensure privacy. I dont think its perfect but its about as good as it gets. Otherwise you can buy a google phone and degoogle it with Graphene
Fairphone uses their own custom OS to degoogle things and help ensure privacy
no they don’t. the default Fairphone OS runs stock Android with all Google apps. there are degoogled custom ROMs available, and you can buy some models with it preinstalled, but those are managed by third party resellers/partners.
Yeah, the most “free” option is probably android custom ROMs (anything based on lineageos, I suppose).
There are alternatives that are slowly building up, such as postmarketos, but it’s not production ready.
I think KaiOS was a thing for a while, and it’s based on FirefoxOS. But you would have to ditch the confort of a real smartphone and I’m not sure it’s still active?
EDIT : KaiOS is indeed maintained BUT it is still based on Android (probably with less higher level components)
You can install CalyxOS or other custom ROM
GrapheneOS
not on the Fairphone.
You can install /e/ on the Fairphone
or CalyxOS if you’re not too fond of knockoff iOS UI. I’ve been using Calyx on my FP4 for a while now, works like a charm.
Forgot that runs on Fairphone.
Yeah, Calyx is the better option for it
I don’t get how this is even worth writing an article about.
Because they, a company that markets itself as free thinking, are supporting a platform run by a Nazi.
It never was free thinking.
It styled itself in that way to capture the upper-middle class market segment of people who wanted to use technology but couldn’t be bothered to learn how
Like every tech company, they sell you the ability to access the fruits of technology in exchange for your privacy and, in doing so, ensure you never have the motivation to learn how to do it yourself.
Want to watch a movie? Don’t worry about learning about media files, players, codecs, etc. Just install this spyware on your phone and pay us
$9$12$15$19.99/mo and you’ll never have to learn.You’re already on Lemmy, so most of you understand the stakes of signing up for corporate mediated technology. Just don’t use their products.
There’s tons of pictures of Tim hanging out with trump so I think it’s pretty obvious.
I don’t really watch news about Trump that don’t concern EU and Europe, so this was new to me.
