Odd to see so many people who were defending EU and attacking Apple over unfair App Store practices suddenly come to defend Apple's practices when Elon is attacking Apple. It's just so blatantly obvious objectivity went out the window a long time ago LOL.

What an odd reply. Maybe you don't agree with what is happening regarding the EU and Apple, but at least there's a coherent argument that you could agree or disagree with.

What is Musk even complaining about here? It's completely unverifiable.
 
Apple hasn't done anything nefarious with their products. Apple should be able to make exclusive APIs to work with their smartwatch just as much as they should be able to select "curated experts" that decide what apps to feature on the App Store. It's their platform, their App Store, their rules.

We can agree to disagree.

But it seems like you want it one way that benefits you (you seem to be able to want to use any watch, not just Apple Watch) so you side with EU, but the other way doesn't benefit you so you side with Apple in that case.

Is me saying "Apple isn't being a cartoon villain in this specific instance" the same as siding with them? Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Besides - as far as devils go, I'll take Tim over Elon. At least Tim makes hardware with great build quality at usually pretty good prices. Can't say the same for Elon.
 
That was an absolute genius move that was.

Absolutely ghastly trinket and vague long term manufacturing promise so they can the push the boat out until Trump is gone.
And now I’ll go to the Trump Presidential Library in 20 years just to look at the Apple product I can’t have 😭

Not being objective is what I'm having an issue with. You can't think Apple is in the right or wrong because you hate Elon for some reason.
“For some reason” is doing so much work. Hmmm, I wonder why anyone would have negative feelings about him? Like has he done anything condemnable or behaved inappropriately in the last 8-10 years, on the regular? Outside of lying about FSD being two years away, fathering multiple(i.e. over a dozen) children from as many women, championing free speech while regulating it on his own vanity platform, giving interviews/speeches in public while zooted on ketamine/THC/???, trash talking his child in public, I really can’t think of anything that he’s done that might influence my opinion of him. Oh yeah, the Nazi salute. And the incessant whining. Ooh ooh, remember how he wanted to fight Mark Zuckerberg, MMA? Something something about something, it didn’t happen. Or how Grok says and does the most out of pocket things, but it can’t possibly be related to Musk’s behavior, right?
He’ll talk himself into an early grave and only his sycophantic brood will mourn, because he only runs his mouth when he’s altered and has an especially inflated sense of self worth. Don’t carry water for the Plutarch’s, because they wouldn’t do it for you.
