has felt really sluggish when navigating between pages recently, and I think it's a deliberate thing by them, because I'm using an ad-blocker.

Mastodon's character limit is forcing me to reevaluate my two-spaces-before-a-new-sentence training/policy.

Right? And it’s wreaking havoc on my Lock Screen bios. May have to switch to screencaps of text.

This can’t be! America has never been racist. Nikki Haley said so and Trump agrees.

Clearly, that cross burned itself.

As an Apple shareholder, I wish Apple wouldn’t push for services revenue. How much better of a company would they be, if it was mostly about selling cool devices that everybody wanted to use? Would they make less money? Yes. Would they still be insanely profitable? Also yes!

davidhmccoy,
@davidhmccoy@mastodon.world avatar

@jamesthomson

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with diversifying their revenue stream.

I think the software and services make the HW more compelling.

I like Apple One, for example. I like HSV. Can’t have them without services.

davidhmccoy,
@davidhmccoy@mastodon.world avatar

@jamesthomson

They maximize HW. What’s the diff? But what poor decisions recently? Not saying they haven’t made any, but what specifically has you irritated?

If continues on this path I’m going to have to switch back to Android. The idea that they deserve a fee from developers for people simply running programs on their operating system is unhinged. The App Store fee is justified because it’s a distribution channel. But whatever this is, is nonsense.

@davidhmccoy@mastodon.world avatar

@Gargron @lisamelton

I know. They only make the hardware, the OS, the APIs, the distribution channel, the marketing, have the trust, did the R&D…what are they thinking?

Strive to live your life each day in such a way that, when you pass, you won't even be mentioned in the headline of your own obituary, but rather will be placed in context by your association with some celebrity.

Mastodon member followed by David H. McCoy makes a good point.

In light of the fact that women no longer have bodily autonomy, I'm even more resentful and annoyed by the various penis and impotence commercials.

@StillIRise1963

Well, to be fair, if we don’t solve one half of the equation, how can we possibly solve the other?

davidhmccoy,
@davidhmccoy@mastodon.world avatar

@StillIRise1963

Joke fell flat. Was saying that without solving for ED, you can’t get the pregnancy necessary for the forced birth that impacts the bodily autonomy of women.

Sounded better in my head.

    "You know, you can just push 6-0 instead of 1-0-0, and save a button-push."

    My dude, I am not operating a level where saving one microwave button-press per day is the kind of optimization that will push the envelope.

    And I really hope you aren't, either.

    That’s the kind of talk that keeps starships and insta-pizza from becoming reality.
