But that’s because the M1 and M2 Mac sold like hot cakes and we’re at a quiet stop in the product timeline.

So you agree that it's mainly Apple stans buy in whenever a new Mac drops, and hasn't been able to really influence non Apple stans.

That's what the poster above you said. Apple stans buy in because they're a cult, so of course their sales will increase once a new mac drops.

sold like hot cakes

The same was true for every other manufacturers during covid as everyone was bound to work from home and needed a laptop, but nobody seems to mention that

apple should have had this fixed long before

not if it was intentional. I mean apple bends over for authoritarian governments around the world. This could easily be used as a state surveillance apparatus and casually "fixed" when discovered down the road as a "bug".

are you surprised they didn't tell you? They probably released a PR in their own language, in their own country that no one bothered to cover. Because claiming east is moving ahead in technology (despite sanctions) causes people to feel bad things in their gut.

As demonstrated by the downvotes without arguments on this post.

USA was built on ulterior motives so there's nothing new. WMDs, genocide and false propaganda are all on the table. It just depends if the country allies with US interests. Saudi Arabia? free to use slaves, anyone else? they're going to feel what freedom feels like. War crimes? You ain't seen nothing yet, my boy…

With India, it's more likely they failed to pay the Police their dues.

Yes that's definitely worse than exploiting slave labour in China for 2 decades, amirite?

This is definitely puts a black eye on the service for me

Right, forget about all the sweatshops and suicide nets and slave labour. this one is crossing the line.

"but but but everyone does it…"

no shit, Apple normalized it.

Which ratings do think we should use that is not manipulated these days? Apple's own rating? IMDB? Any others?

For someone going after state actors like China, they could drop them overnight, or trickle it to go under the radar.

ratings… geez, next you're gonna say we should trust ecommerce ratings for online purchases.
