  • You’re out of your mind if you think the regular guy off the street should:

    1. Know the difference between IMAP and POP3

    2. Know the inner workings of iMessage

    If Apple requires proof of understanding to sell their tech, they should submit users to a test. Otherwise, their tech should work how the users expect it to. And deleting messages when I press the damn “delete” button is how any sane person expects things to work. Now, if Apple wants to make a copy and store it in their asshole, and I have to penetrate them anally to delete it as well? That’s fucking debatable in court if it’s a reasonable expectation for a user to have.







  • Every year young people are different. They may have a strong feeling of being a part of society this year, they may feel completely disenfranchised next year. Because every year there’s a new set of them.

    Every year old people stay the same. Because their views are already set in stone, you won’t convince them of anything new. Also, they had time to form good behaviors. They had time to learn to vote even if they feel disenfranchised. They had time to learn to complain if they think something isn’t right (even if they’re wrong about it), and that you can make a difference and have your voice heard. They had time to learn these lessons and now, even if their opinion is wrong, they’ll go out and vote, they’ll put in the effort to get what they want.

    Unfortunately, children haven’t really learned all this. The average 18 year old is still getting bullied by his McDonald’s boss to come in on their free time, and indoctrinated by their bad teachers that you shouldn’t question authority, of course they don’t think their opinion matters. They also don’t understand enough about politics to know which way they want to go on some issues. This drives them to be indifferent towards it.
