It’s an apple house unfortunately.. company policy..
Minimum wage in where I’m from is okay but nowhere to the point I can just switch up OS.. what is the big difference?
Discussion
In terms of functionality, probably not much.
The point of the original note is about choosing systems with more freedom instead of ones based on centralized control.
Apple products are always overpriced (compared to computing power) and aimed at people with plenty of spare cash.
Ok I see what you mean… when I was 16-17 I had android and it’s always been Apple since - majority of working class fiat miners are on Apple here for some reason..
The reason is "brag factor", unless there's some shipping, or tarrif, issue with Samsung and your region.
Brag factor = less sats
So my current phone is 3 years old - paid off and I was looking to upgrade - company will pay but if I don’t upgrade I don’t get the cash.. so that’s the catch..
Here it’s a tax break if we buy from a company which is owned by previously disadvantaged people - so that’s the only reason I can think..
Not my company not my rules..
Apple is considered to be owned by previously disadvantaged people?
So buying the products via a company owned by previously disadvantaged people gives the company a better score and bigger tax breaks.. that’s how it works here..
Ah, that makes more sense. I knew Steve Jobs was crazy, but that didn't seem like a qualifying trait.
No it’s our government…
When you wanna learn about it google “BEE Africa” - you’ll understand what I’m saying - becareful it’s a deep rabbit hole if you enjoy history and investigation of how other places work…
All I get are results for Africanized bees. 🤷🏻♂️
