Exploding Note 7

Shiller. After the >no jack debacle, seeing him try to justify the new MBP was hilarious.

I'd be tempted to say Apple or Samsung, but if we add foundations, Mozilla is clearly a challenger.
>event
Pixel Launch was the most underwhelming.
>innovation
The only innovations I can think of this year are the botnet dildo and the ddos from IoT devices with Mirai.

>person
Donald "encryption backdoor is okay" trump
>company
Apple, and their beginning of a long, slow, painful decline.
>event
Galaxy note 7, the whole thing
>innovation
VR, and their target audience disconnect

>>57599798
Everything past 2009 was a mistake. Technology is heading towards redundancy and form rather than improving functionality and optimization so smaller and more mobile devices can overshadow traditional x86 computers reducing consumption of power and cost of buying hardware every 6 months.

>touchbar

>not removal of a headphone jack
>or should I say, a courageous iphone 7

>>57599852
If anything, Nutella has been saving Microsoft.

He didn't have to justify anything. They sold record amounts and intel fucked up on the RAM
>>57600120
>le courage meme
>painful decline
Have fun hanging on to legacy ports for 10 years.
>>57602639
This is the shit you fucking pajeet/poorfag retards keep spamming with anecdotal evidence and no idea about anything. Lastpass fucked up, not Apple. Apple can't possibly anticipate shitty third party devs being incompetent.

>>57599852
pretty much this, but maybe I would change Rajesh Nutella because I actually liked the Microsoft Surface Studio and mental canvas.

>>57602704
Do apple shills do it for free?

>bad reviews
Coming from:
>autists on /g/
>an autist on youtube that people keep parroting
>people who didn't buy the macbook to begin with
AKA the vocal minority. This shit happens over and over. The /g/ echo chamber is full of lonely angsty nerds that like to shit on everything to make them feel better about themselves.

>>57603447
Im sorry but that is not the case
Back to the topic, there's already enough Apple threads in here

>>57602704
I hope you don't do it for free.
