Nope I would short Apple. Everyone is out of work and even the Middle classes can no longer afford their products. China will replace them.

I'm going to buy my first apple computer ever. They've smashed it. I'm not going to bother waiting for the next iteration, I don't care about the touch screen or bezels. The OLED would be nice but whatever.

I was eyeing that as well. Is it legit fast or just meme hype? Was going to build myself a Ryzen PC otherwise but Windows sucks balls and all 5xxx series Ryzens are sold out everywhere

I'll be running Photoshop and Ableton on it primarily

Apple should get their own stable coin.

Wow, I’m so smart, can’t believe I just thought of this, damn!

Imagine the billions they will be saving if they like partnered with one of those stablecoin projects like XDB or that other one.

Oooooh So pumped for ZUSD possibly increasing my XDB bag price

Fuck yeah

[Anonymous No.24826781]

It is fast as fuck. Never gets hot in the slightest. I only got 8gb ram too
Only thing it sucks at compared to a PC is 3D rendering but obviously it’s not really made for that. Photoshop and Ableton will be buttery.

Not for long bitch, apple is not decentralized, it’s gonna be phased out in the next 10 years if they don’t join the fintech revolution

Holding XDB is a way to go long on ZUSD. Makes sense, maybe I would have believed you if you weren’t another 4chan retard.

But it does make sense.

I was a windows/android fanboy my whole life. One day I gave macs and iphones a shot and I'm never going back. I feel autistic for not trying them earlier out of some kind of devotion to Microsoft.

[Anonymous No.24827812]

>>24826252
not right now they're not....Covid stopped them dead in their tracks. Also they've exhausted their market share..also the last few years they have no major products that people are dying for. Hopefully for the they can get the M1 chips going so they can fuck intel but until that, all i see is people basically using this stock as a "bond" because bonds are shit returns right now. but what the fuck do I know I'm just some neet on 4chan.

They have seriously impressive performance in Apple-made software particularly. The operating system I find nicer to use too.
>>24826362
Yeah in fairness all the ching chong special smartphones are pretty good for the money, but I definitely think there is a stigma there that with time is not going to get better with all the shit going on in China, unless they shut down their concentration camps and tyrannical social score system all that kind of shit. That being said, the non-chingchong flagship Android phones are damn expensive (apart from the Google Pixel which looks to be pretty good from my experience).
Also the Mac computers are becoming cheaper while Windows devices become more expensive, whilst still being quite shit somehow.
Happy to be wrong though if anyone has more info

If it's that significant, I'll just switch to Logic from Ableton. It's far cheaper than Ableton anyway

I still prefer PCs. Apple computers are falling behind and are grossly overpriced. Microsoft has figured their shit out with their OS.

But yes, iPhones are more enjoyable to use than Android so whatever.

There's levels to this. First of all, "trickle down" isn't a real policy, it's supply side economics. Secondly the US is living proof of the fact that wealth does in fall cascade through the ranks as our poor buy 70" TVs, drive nice cars, and live in functioning houses with internet, TV, and plumbing whereas the poor in poorer states would consider their lifestyle godly. A rising economic tide does in fact lift all boats.

My point was the meglocorp problem wasnt created by trickle down. Bailing out companies that cheat, commit fraud, and crach the economy, makes them too big to fail, not the other way around. We havent stopped using deficit spending to buy corporate debt and having corporations pump the bond market using fake printed money, we've done it every year since 08. This creates the goliath meglocorps like apple and amazon that can never be threatened by anything, not deregulation.

As a kid I had the "but mac has no games!!" argument which was a solid argument. Plus pc had a huge range of different programs. Pc was so flexible. But now as I'm older the only game I play is casual League of Legends and the occasional Blizzard game. I don't use alot of pc exlusive programs anymore and the most I do with my pc I could do on a mac. Plus building a gaming pc nowdays is bizarrely expensive with the second best cards up in the 1000$ bracket. Last time I built a gaming pc the gtx 970 was the second best card and I got it for like 400$. The price on pc gaming parts have skyrocketed like crazy. I feel like a complete fool when I put together a decent upper tier pc and see the price. There aren't even any good games getting released anymore. Might just get a fucking macbook or something next time I buy a new computer.

This seems to have trickled into laptops, I could be completely wrong though.
I was looking for a laptop for my gf and holy shit Windows laptops are so expensive for the shitty hardware they have, they are made out of crap materials and look like shit. I haven’t looked at windows laptops for ages so my memory is probably a bit wrong but I was expecting them to be a lot better for the price idk if anyone else has experienced this.

I mean, I don't know. I'm still on the fence. I'm just bored with windows and pc overall and the "lower price" factor isn't a thing now with pc gaming parts skyrocketing in price. I scouted some pc laptops too and as you said they're ugly and plastic and surprisingly expensive. The gaming laptops might look badass to a 15 year old but as an adult I'm not into that red/black shit with leds everywhere and the "stealth bomber" design. Plus they're fucking humongous and heavy. As a 15 year I would've fucking loved it. But now that I'm older it doesn't and pc's don't fit in with the style I want in my home. I've been a windows user all my life and changing to mac would feel so weird at first. Almost like I'm selling out to "the man" or something.
