Fuck Apple. Fuck iTunes. Fuck iOS 7.
Seriously. I got a new phone recently and decided to do something nice and give my now retired 4s to my mom. She is still using a 3gs. Seems like a simple process. Back up old phone. Wipe new phone. Install stuff from old phone onto new phone. Ha. No. Error messages left and right when trying to keep iOS 6.1.3. Every error message I resolve prompts another. Eventually I spend about 2 hours with this and decide that she can just live with the abortion that is iOS 7. Great. So now it takes another hour to resolve all those errors but it finally wiped the phone and put a clean os on it. Restore backup! ...no apps or settings were backed up with the backup. Some fucking backup that was. So here I sit nearly 4 hours into a process that should have been simple. Apple just works. ...fuck you. Share your apple hate!

You should put those apple products in the trash can where they belong. Right next to the AKs.

Hate Apple. Hate 'em, hate 'em, hate 'em. I hate my iMac, my Macbook, my iPad, my iPhone, and my iPod. Okay, maybe "hate" is too strong a word. You should put those apple products in the trash can where they belong. Right next to the AKs.
Sounds like I need an AK |

Sorry to break it to you, but everything you wanted is pretty easily done. User error. http://www.iclarified.com and go to tutorials. It'll show you how to keep your old iOS. I am well versed in working around apples nonsense. I have been working on them, modding them, repairing them, jail breaking them for years. I couldn't even get it to let me keep it using tinyumbrella. That usually works. Something just got plain fucked up. Oh well. Not my problem now. |

I hate that after I bought a Mac Mini, they told me they would answer my technical question for $19 because I didn't buy a service contract. Good machine, asshole company. |

Apple's software/OS resembles a walled garden while Android is an open field. Apple = Too restrictive Firefox is open source too, and it has turned into total shit in the last 6 months. So open source doesn't necessarily mean better. Hell, I have to resort to IE for some web pages to load properly, and Chrome for others. On my MBA and iDevices, Safari works on nearly everything, other than the Flash issue on iDevices*. On my PCs, I have to play browser-roulette to see which one is going to work properly. I also find the Google cock-sucking around here ironic. A company that collects so much personal information on users, and has now been able to integrate themselves into so many aspects of our digital lives shouldn't be blindly trusted. At least one benefit of Apple's lower share and "walled garden" is less vulnerability to cyber attacks (smaller user base.) Digital terrorists go where the biggest impact can be felt and exploited, thus why Microsoft was the biggest target in years past. Google will be a bigger target in the future. *Come on Apple, Jobs is dead, time to bury the hatchet with Adobe..... |

When I had my website, I wrote it in HTML (nothing complicated, believe me) and checked it on IE and Firefox. Since then, Firefox has been fighting a losing battle with IE and Chrome, and Safari. I guess people no longer care to cross check for Firefox anymore. There were a few things that wouldn't work across IE and Safari. |

Fuck apple. Bunch of yuppie bullshit and their computers are slow pieces of crap geared toward the lowest common god damn fucking piece of shit denominator. You're my fucking hero Fuck apple I was selling MP3 players back when they released their first couple generations of shit. None of it was unique or ground breaking. Everything they did was stolen from Creative Labs at the time, they just had better marketing and CL didn't give a fuck. Overpriced pieces of garbage. Recently made the fiancee dump her Iphone or I wasn't letting her stay on the plan. Can't stand those fucks |

I refused to buy anything Apple till I went through 3 different Androids looking for one that didn't randomly crash multiple times a day. Open source is a great concept. I didn't find it to work that well in practice. Love my MBP. Got tired of rebuilding my PC every time I wanted to watch some porn.

the new iOS sucks balls. it is the worst thing they've ever done. i hope whoever was in charge of that chokes on a donkey cock Again, what specifically sucks about it? What does it not do that iOS 6 did, or what does it do now that it didn't before that sucks? How about some specifics? Or do you not really have any and just want to complain? Apple does stuff I don't like (non-standard connector, no card slot for memory expansion, etc). But I don't see the issue with iOS 7 overall. The control center is a nice addition, but otherwise I don't notice any real substantial change from previous iOS versions. |

Or the launch of the next stupidly named Android OS launch? What is it now, Whoopie Pie? In reality, what suck the most are the CARRIERS! The price we pay for the coverage and features we get is pathetic vs the rest of the world. |

The key to being effective in forming any kind of argument is to avoid making statements that immediately destroy one's credibility.
The words in bold are simply nonsense. I suspect you are aware of that though and just want to partake of the circle jerk. Quoted:
