so we are losing the only point of Android -- sideloading apps -- now it will be literally worse at everything compared to iOS :(

that's it boys. apple will take over the ENTIRE market with this. they will be at schools everywhere. only reason to not get a macbook before was the price.

the problem is - these don't work unless everyone uses them worldwide.

yeah I think trillions alone wouldn't be enough to replicate Apple's success and market dominance (especially the most valuable demographic)

damn you guys are naïve. this is ragebait (not the blog author, the person who told AI what to do...)

I'm not saying the author is malicious. These are typical vibe-coded codebase characteristics.

Mr. Rand, not just goods and services. also anything that taxes pay for, done by younger people than you. roads laid, cleaned, police, firefighters, public parks, etc. deal or no deal? there is no third option. if you're really mad about it i can make up a third option specially for you but you won't like it, probably.

it's fun but PLEASE watch out for malicious code/supply chain attacks from random vibe-coded .sh scripts:

downloads other scripts (peon.sh, uninstall.sh) and executes them or places them where they will be executed later

edits your ~/.bashrc and ~/.zshrc files to add aliases and tab completion

parses a remote JSON file to get filenames ($sfile) and then does: curl ... -o "$INSTALL_DIR/packs/$pack/sounds/$sfile"

the upfront cost

fine but the tradeoff is you are not getting any benefits or services from people younger than you. deal or no deal?

What is very disturbing, apart from the obvious, is the fact that they are using Google generated AI images. take the picture of the kid, put it into gemini.google.com and request @SynthID

most of them are needed at one time or another.

also a mandatory: and yet the macbooks are faster and more battery efficient than any PC laptop with linux/windows
