Fuck, are they trying to make me fall in love with them or what?!

Apple Store Dubai is about to get its own cloud

As an American, I say let's fucking go!

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 37 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

US tech companies are effectively intelligence assets anyway. Considering how close the heads of these companies like to stay to trump to buy favor, I can't think of a more valid target for Iran. Trump may not give a shit about anything that doesn't directly impact him, but the tech bros will throw a fit when their shit starts getting broken.

They are they are more then legitimate targets, they're all involved in Israel's killbot fucking kill chain automated decision making bullshit lucrative contracts where they demand these companies put the data centers in their country to get them. US cash of course.

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 22 points 6 hours ago

Oh no! What a shame, a damn shame. I would jate for the tech parasites to lose some of their Israeli investments that Israel demamded they put in country for their lucrative killbot, et al dystopian programs.

Cool, may I suggest you kick things off by nuking Apple, Amazon, Google and Meta.

[–] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 31 points 6 hours ago

If they had nukes, none of this would have happened. 😅

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 17 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

Facebook first, then Amazon, then google then apple.

I NEVER thought I'd put apple last.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 11 points 6 hours ago

hate to say it but I would amazon last because they are kinda handy. X should be numero uno though.

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 hours ago

Google first. But fintech too.

hate to hand it to them but they've impressed me lately in the privacy/security space. apple has put itself miles ahead of stock android and microslop when it comes to enshittification of its services and spying on its users.

of course that's the bare fucking minimum and FOSS is always the best answer, but still, it should be said.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 5 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Apple used to be the kings of enshittification.

Proprietary forced bloat ware, files getting thrown wherever the fuck they want, consumerism instead of customers, Fischer price designs ,psychotic CEOs. I gave no idea wtf is going on over there, I guess when you hit rock bottom and drag everyone else down with you, you get to shock people when you start climbing out.

[–] brynden_rivers_esq@lemmy.ca 1 points 15 minutes ago

I guess everyone else learned the playbook and started beating them at it

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 hours ago

no place for a racist maga billionaire in your list?

[–] Asafum@lemmy.world 14 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

April 1st... So do we believe them or....

[–] Zedd_Prophecy@lemmy.world 7 points 6 hours ago

I dunno - I'm headed to Snopes to find out

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 7 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Iran Threatens to Attack U.S. Tech Companies Starting April 1

Oh thats like weeks away right?

[–] crunchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

What was that about national security and bringing those jobs back stateside?

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

Well, the jobs would still be there.
