Apple recently announced an app called Breathe for their Apple Watch. The 2 minute video below will explain all the reasons Apple think we will approve of any crap they throw our way!

See, mindfulness is useful, but I refuse to have a digital reminder everyday!

I take time to breathe and calm down, but I refuse to use a digital thing to tell me to Anxiety, people.

Plus, I hate being strapped to gadgets. I have my 3DS on me every day, but that's different!

Totally agree! That being said I carry my phone with me everyday, not my 3DS XL. :)

I'm not pleased with the alleged redesign of the upcoming Macbook Pro. Why would they think it's good idea to put the butterfly keyboard on a prosumer machine, and where's the SD card reader?

If it turns out to be real the current one that I'm using will be the first and the last Mac I'll ever buy (not counting hackintosh), I'd rather have a laptop that's slightly thicker and heavier if it means better battery life and less thermal throttling or fan noise, instead of a ultra-thin one with a uncomfortable keyboard and limited connectivity.

What if you use an Apple device you didn't pay for? What about jailbroken users? Not denying Android is better, but not all Apple users are crap.
If you didn't pay them it's fine, i have an ipod 4 that i last used 3 years ago, that i didn't pay for

Welp, nothing beats an jailbroken iPad 2 (and upwards) in terms of usability tbqh. It beats the living shit outta every Android tablet I've owned/used in the last 5 years.

I wanna try using a Mac because I've only ever tried using Linux and Windows, I don't see how that makes me stupid.
It doesn't make you stupid at all. It makes you a jack of all trades as you are extending your horizon with new experiences and information. If anyone tells you that your stupid for it then they ought to do a reality check. Thanks for watching the video and commenting on the forum!

Oh crap. I did not know they were going to be bringing their crappy butterfly keyboard on to their MacBook Pro line! I despised that keyboard. There is so little tactile feedback that it almost feels like you are typing on an iPad. Well if anyone wants the current range of Retina MBP's then looks like you will have to make your purchase now before this becomes the industry standard on Mac laptops.

Do people still stand out in line for 72 hours before the new iPhone is released?

My sister has an iPhone and a Mac Book, I used her Mac Book a bit while over her house, and was not pleased with it. I guess I'm too used to windows. I still haven't figured out why I cannot transfer Cia Angel to her Micro SD card with her Mac Book. It just corrupts the file, and FBI or the other Cia installing programs cannot install it. Also, I felt like a dip shit for having to Google "How to right click with a Mac Book"! :P

My homeroom teacher in grade 7 had a Mac in her classroom, and everyone barely used it because the mouse was literally just a huge left-click button.

Yeah, Mac's do give you different configuration options. All you have to do is go into System Preferences, Trackpad, Secondary Click, that will bring up a drop down menu and then you can change how the trackpad picks up a right click.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
