My easy to make Joker prophecy came true.

 

Everybody is gonna fap frenetically on this Joker film.

 

Trying Times we live in.

 

I was hoping people would come to their senses but no, it seems they cannot.

Hey ladies, don't try this on me.

I knew what people were gonna say on this Joker project the moment it was announced.

It s almost comical actually.

Don't invert roles.

It s not very hard to smell the cynicism bullshit of this project, how and why it is made to appeal to certain people.

 

Shazam! has a pure heart, this Joker thing on the other hand .. ykes.

 

This year, People are gonna fap on a funny book movie and call it Art, from the Dudebro Phillips guy, I really just can't ...

That's probably the most horrifying realization of the current paradigm, the intersectionality between

 

cinephiles, critics and dudebros.

 

They are somewhat fusionning and it s not a pretty sight.

I imagine generation of critics often became one because of some movies/directors.

 

You had a strong generation of Tarantinesque (apparently some year's 50%+ of Sundance entry curators received were some version of reservoir dogs), a decade later we probably are quite the Nolanesque generation of commentators.

Never bought anything they made I think, but really considering it now more and more, their pay in advance for stuff you see making you the consumer model is becoming more and more interesting in a world when we tend to be the products not the consumer in today tech worlds

160 gb ipod is the only apple thing I've ever bought I think. gave out on me recently after almost six years. 

[Napoleon]

Apple is like the Disney of tech companies. Just pure evil.

[The Futurist]

Cry me a river, all these products are made in the same slave shops in China.

 

Unless mybe you don't give a crap about chinese workers.

 

Good for you.

For the longest time, I never had an iphone, went through 5 or 6 non-Apple smartphones. The only Apple product I ever had was my 160GB iPod Classic which I've used for about 10 years and it still works great.

 

then when my latest phone contract expired i just wanted a small phone and only Apple makes small ones so bought the SE. Really preferred using iOS to android. So for my next phone (i dropped my iphone down the toilet and it broke) i stayed with iphone.

 

Would never buy a Mac though that'd just be stupid.

Why are they evil? Because of the labour treatment? Or tax dodging? Both of which are practices all the other tech giants do.

What makes it better than Spotify?

 

I do't know why I would switch to another service although being able to use voice search would be nice (i assume you can use Siri to play apple music?)

[Goffe]

i hate it that there still isn’t a spotify shortcut for iphone. like fuck. all i am asking is to play my favorite playlist without having to touch my iphone while i’m driving.

 

shortcuts is useless as of now. what a waste of a potentially great tool.
