Ah that’s a shame.

I really cannot fully express how much I have grown to hate all these motherfuckers and their awful work - and I work in Silicon Valley.

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I am thoroughly entrenched in the Apple ecosystem, and I can’t stand those socioeconomic vampires.

I feel like throwing up even seeing Ive's "the work behind this turd starts with a carefully engineered thread of digestion, and the smell and texture were carefully selected by thousands of experiments handled personally by our engineers, it's a miraculous creation, and in its own way it's unique" face.

Product design Anakin used to make some dope shit before he turned to the dark side.

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 3 weeks ago

I am altering the design. Pray I do not alter it any further.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

God, I love that case design. Eventually, I'm gonna put a modern system in one.

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It seemed cool because everything was beige or white or black and square. "Boring" industrial design (that I liked, but those Apple stuff pictures I liked too, though not as much as chromecore GBA and PS2, remember when everything was chromecore?) and this bubbly-transparent-plastic-luminous thing.

I don't think I'd like it really using it though. And it is tasteless, like everything Ive designed.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

I’m mostly referring to how the case functioned. The door, the legs that tripled as handles and rack mount holes. The G3 / G4 cases were easy to access, upgrade, move, and store.

Ahhh, the good ole days

[–] ContrarianTrail@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Source on the quote?

[–] IllNess@infosec.pub 2 points 3 weeks ago

At least the previous version that uses AA batteries, you can swap them out and keep working. Now people need two mice just to continue working...

[–] helenslunch@feddit.nl 2 points 3 weeks ago

Cool-looking stuff sells, man.

[–] paf0@lemmy.world 25 points 3 weeks ago

Oh yay, another AI Pin or glasses or assistant thing that won't be worth buying. Yay.

I’ll take my chances with Cthulhu. With Baal as my backup.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 21 points 3 weeks ago

Is it just slightly unsecret enough that giddy investors can throw money at it though??

Came to make a "Jony Ive alive!" joke, but ya beat me to it!

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Whatever it is, I’ll bet it’ll be 3 nanometers thinner than last year’s model!

[–] IllNess@infosec.pub 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Less keys, more touch bars.

[–] whatwhatwhatwhat@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

One year later…

Touch bars are old news. We’re replaced them with this amazing new thing called “keys”!

[–] IllNess@infosec.pub 2 points 3 weeks ago

Apple, please do that but with the headphone jack.

[–] SoupBrick@yiffit.net 14 points 3 weeks ago

Can't wait to see what job they are turning into a gig next.

[–] chemicalwonka@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

probably a new device or software to control the users even more, to turn them into tech slaves

[–] krimson@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Deranged people attract one another.

[–] awesomesauce309@midwest.social 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
