Any time I would listen to a tech podcast, they'd discuss Apple/its products for a majority of the time, despite OSX having less than 20% market share (and iOS having like half of Android's as well). But obviously since their products are the priciest as well as the most """prestigious""" they deserve an inordinate amount of attention and hype.
The news about how Steve Jobs came out looking too skinny and the stock took a dive was one of those moments pre-Marxism younger me looked at the stock market and said "what is this bullshit, alchemy? John Dee horseshit?"
But then he DID die and the company hasn't had a single good idea since.
Like yeah on one hand he was a CEO and all CEOs are cunts and he was involved with tax evasion and etc etc etc
But on the other hand he's at the helm when they come out with the ipod, macbook and iphone, and since he died the "best" thing apple have done is "uh... Do you want a subscription service to bad mobile games??"
you're forgetting about the big heavy smart watch, so you can carry another device for all the times you don't want to look at your phone but want to look at your wrist instead
It hurts my soul that we already had the perfect smartwatch, it was made years before. The Pebble Round. This bitch had a color e-ink screen so you could use it in daylight, it was small and thin and light enough to look like a real watch on my tiny woman's wrist, it was navigated with physical buttons instead of a touchscreen the size of a postage stamp, had multi-day battery life. It was the only good smartwatch and I fucking loved it. And now it's gone, capitalism killed it, Fitbit bought the company and threw everything good about it in the trash.

Fitbit bought Pebble and then Google bought Fitbit.
