Apple is infatuated with Tyler Durden

Right, I didn’t even wanna do this today, but I was vibe coding some fixes and what better way to push them to prod than have a new story? The fixes? The double heading issue should be gone, also, lists after the redesign were broken and quote blocks didn’t render as I wanted them to. I almost gave up, but I think it’s fixed now. Until Hugo does something funky and breaks my pipeline again. But that’s just modern programming. Anyway, just like last time, we’re using Czech source, deal with it and be happy that I write English.

So, what do I wanna say? Well, first of all, you shouldn’t be wearing an Apple Watch, okay. Like, the entire point is to addict you even harder to already addictive iPhone and in addition, it’s a good way to take hundreds of dollars off of you, just because. But people will say: “I’m not hurting anybody.” or “I use it as a fitness tracker.” or “It’s my choice to buy what I want.” I won’t be rebutting these stances, I have better things to do. So, why do I wanna cover the story then?

Remember the exploding Samsung? It was a godsend of a decoy for Apple. Right as their own battery issues were starting to leak, Apple hid behind the smoke and wrote off the early reporting as nothing more than a hit piece fueled by a butthurt Samsung camp. Well, nearly a decade later, Apple couldn’t help it and thought: “Why don’t we give our customers Tyler Durden’s kiss?” Of course it’d be difficult to distribute lye, people wouldn’t pour it onto themselves and those who would, could easily do so with vinegar at hand. So, … Damn, this is hard. Oh, wait, I know! We’re gonna let their watch burn them!

Other than that, it’s a classic case of blame the customer, don’t admit any fault, if situation gets hot, settle out of court. It makes me sick to my stomach and people defend Apple! People say the burnt guy made it up! Dude gets hurt, because he bought a faulty product and gets ridiculed for it. I don’t get it, man. Anyway, there’s no moral today, just a reminder, that you shouldn’t wear Apple Watches. Or any other smartwatch for that matter, let your wrist be gloriously free like in 2010.
