Ios 7 and why you should run like the wind

Post by Reeltarded »

Because ios7 sucks monkey balls, that's why. What a suck ass piece of crap.. and on the suject of engineered crap, let's discuss remodeling my home in the middle of the night for a second..

When i am used to a machine's behaviors I can well interface with it.. the GUI.. the Graphical User Interface. Ok. It's like knowing the floor plan when you go to sleep so you don't piss in the pantry @4am, no?

Too many people with jobs at Apple. Way too many people with jobs. They have decorators on staff ready to change my experience 24/7.

Run far away. Run run run run run run..

Just closing apps on an ipad makes you look like a moron playing Wii Karaoke.

No offense to Wii playing moronic karaoke lovers, I'm sure.

I'm liking iOS 7 so far, though I do hate the zooming icons. A LOT.

Butch would kill you for crapping on the bus. I did cover it in a gallon of honey once.

I got a MacBook Pro. Big deal. I can't for the life of me figure out what I'm gonna do with a smart phone. Really. Better pichures I guess. Why have one? And an I pad is worse maybe. I waste most of my time on a lap top and now they want me to waste the rest of it with a smaller version I can carry in the sack with my whisky while I'm driving? I don't get it. Help me understand.

Hey, you guys that don't want the gizmos...don't need them!

Me, I love 'em. Got a new 27" iMac, Macbook Pro, iPad 2, and iPhone 5. I line them up in order of size and gaze at myself in all the reflections. :P

Of course, computers iz how I earns my bones.

People do not like change, we enjoy our creature comforts.
I am no a fan of phones, landline or otherwise, so, when my family insisted that I get a cellphone I resisted for quite some time.
Now that I have a "smartphone" the most used feature on the thing is the calculator. I also snap an occasional photo and use it to check my multiple e-mails; this is the feature that I find most convenient.
But, what baffles me most is the choice between 16/32/64GB's.
Really, people actually fill up a mobile device?
Let me rephrase that.
People have the latest gadget long enough to fill up 16GB's?
It has taken me about 7 years to fill up my 4GB Power Book.
I await the diagnosis from the academy of mental health for the latest obsessive compulsive term ... iHorder. :wink:

iOS7 seems like change for the sake of change. iOS6 was fine, it had the "look and feel" of a strong cup of coffee. iOS7 looks and feels like a luke-warm, watered down cup of coffee. I'm not digging it, so far.

I didn't allow the setting where the phone tracks, and reports back to the mothership, my whereabouts. That's sensible (not allowing it), yes?

I assume you can also disallow the finger print detection and reporting to the nsa ship?

The worst thing that has happened to computer stuff in the 21st century is Microsoft trying to make their products look and act like Apple products, and Apple trying to adopt some of the attitudes and features of Microsoft products.
They call it competition.
I call it "People, there was a reason we bought your individual products! You're polluting that! Now it's all the same sh*t!"
