Seconded. Seth had to pitch the show to Fox as a sort of live-action family guy and kept it going for the first few episodes, but it quickly sheds that vibe and keeps getting better.

Then just remind them that they have something in common 😂
Thought at first your username said “Bannakaffalatta”
Don’t you think he looks tired?
Yellow 2003 Suzuki Aerio SX. Ugly-ass car, but had a 6-CD changer standard and despite a rating of 20mpg by my calculations I got around 40-ish mpg. As a teenager working a retail job at minimum wage, it was awesome.
Nah, mashed potatoes. He has a thing about that.
Trump’s GDP growth was 4% in 2019. I seriously doubt it would’ve doubled in 2020 without COVID.
Not that GDP growth is the only thing that matters, it’s just the comparison being used here.
It’ll be hilarious if they spend all their money and still lose.
What about the time we enslaved people who weren’t white for over a century and then almost split in half over it?
I’ll do that just as soon as you show me something definitive showing that Apple has an entire revenue stream based on selling user data that isn’t reported.
Dude, get ahold of your emotions. 😂
Samesies my dude
lol I give you a source that refutes your “Apple bad” argument and you have to resort to going after me personally because you have nothing left.
The data collection you mention is device and usage stats, which basically everyone collects. But that was never the issue, which was selling user data for profit. The source I provided compares what Apple and Google collects and determines Apple does not do this.
You can also look up revenue streams for both companies and clearly see that while Apple does not consider this as a revenue stream, it makes up a significant portion of what Google brings in every year. At that point I think you just have misdirected anger.
lol yeah that’s what I was agreeing with you on 🤣
Your turn ;)
You could also just look at the revenue streams reported by each company and see that most other tech companies make a majority of their money on what Apple has been accused of doing.
Also you could just……review their public financial statements and compare to other tech companies. Google is very much an advertising company, and it’s a huge part of their reported profits. The fact that you could ignore that and think Apple is worse simply because you feel like they are is just a silly debate strategy.
Agreed with the main points you said. It’s one thing for a company to collect hardware data and usage stats for their services but to compare Apple to the likes of Google and Roku which make a majority of their profit on collecting and selling data, then there needs to be evidence of data collection beyond that.
For your own argument? No, I won’t prove your points for you.
If you believe Apple is doing something, I await evidence they are until shown otherwise. If you’re just flipping that logic around to shirk this, then you’re not actually trying to converse in good faith here.

I really, really want to see Jordan Klepper debate with interview Trump and not hold back at all.
