yet you participate in society i am very smart
It was just such a low hanging fruit I couldn’t believe nobody had said it yet lol
Nobody said it because it's such a low hanging fruit that it's actually just straight up rotten and fell off years ago.
Yeesh point taken.
...but Apple is a publicly traded company.
I feel like one of us got whooshed, though I'm not entirely sure who.
With an entirely proprietary lineup
Sure. But that's unrelated; Apple is a publicly traded ("public") company. IKEA, for example, is a privately funded ("private") company. Being largely proprietary is separate from the ownership structure...
Please do not lecture me on public vs private companies lmfao. That was the most condescending comment I’ve seen in a while. This is a joke post, and we were making little asides. You can allow a little loose interpretation in service of a joke.
