Yeah no, that's not what they meant and it's pretty obvious.

Look harder, stop doubling down to cope, we all make mistakes

Our argument is that colonialism didn't directly destroy the entirety of Saudian Arabian history
You know, rebutting the original point being made, instead of the one you switched to after realising the mistake but not admitting it

No, it's the bit about Mac OS 9/10
This is exactly what I'm talking about

Proving it would take more effort than it's worth, for someone who is going to clap back with semantics and not understand what I'm saying
The thing that broke me was thinking that there are versions of Mac OS without exploits or malicious software, after you saying that is very clear you're not prepared to listen, so I'm gonna take the downvotes from other pedants that don't want to look things up on here so I can enjoy my day off and not waste time researching on you

I'm not going to write you an essay or provide you sources because I get the feeling you're not going to accept them and I have better things to do
Google it or not, you have enough info to easily find all of it, I don't care if you believe me about the reality of these things

> Safari
Look up on a CSS comparison sites the specific version of safari you used and what was missing, I only noticed this because I was doing web development and constantly had to make similar """fixes""" for safari, potentially more than IE in some cases
> Feature film
It's possible to make an indie film or YouTube videos, their marketing suggested you could make the NEXT CINEMA BLOCKBUSTER
It's misleading, the case study they wrote on it also discussed the entire process like it was cutting edge, when it was really simple stuff
> Viruses/malware
Pal, you and I both know that paragraph is both a lie and full of cope
We can also go over the multiple kernel security exploits Apple constantly creates, despite claiming their software is """more secure"""
> OS 10
They did, what are you talking about?
> Car
I'll admit I might be wrong on this one, I'm pretty sure I've heard the company discuss the idea before though

They constantly make claims that are "half true" about their products
The biggest example of this is Safari being the """fastest browser""" because they disabled most WebKit features that took effort to optimise
Or the time they claimed that you could make a feature film with final cut and an iPhone because ONE under budget studio made ONE indie film that barely anyone watched
Or the claim that Macs never get viruses, despite them having some absolute conkers in their time and the only reason they made that claim was because so few people used Macs at the time that nobody really bothered to make viruses for them, which rapidly changed with their popularity
Or the multiple times they've been announcing and delaying their self driving car
However, the stuff with their watch always seems to work, so I'd go with the product lines past performance, rather than trusting Apple as a brand, I have hope that this will be somewhat usable or at least shippable
