The logo that’s utilizing Apples trademark colours
The "trademark" colors they no longer use on their products.
, the specific call-out to the App Store, the ongoing lawsuit involving Apple...
What I'm seeing is this being nothing more than a dig at Apple by including a Samsung phone. The whole thing is stupid and childish and by MR posting this crap it's just to annoy Apple users. News we don't need here.

Did the people who approved this endeavor ever read "Don Quixote?"

If I had gotten any of this swag in the mail, I'd hawk it on eBay to make a quick buck.
 
It's just to get them mentioned in videos and articles like this. Hey hey look at me... No no no don't lose focus. I'm still here... I promise I'm still relevant. 😂 😂 😂
 
It is already free. People have a choice. They can go to another platform. Obviously people might be thinking fortnite is not really important to them.

I’m team Epic till Apple allows sideloading. I really think Epic would back down if Apple did.

I don’t want to say Epic is the reason Apple started taking 15% down from 30% from small devs, but I’d say it certainly helped.
Apple allows side loading on M1 Macs...which play Fortnite. The Epic supporters need to really wake up, look around, and stop guzzling the Epic Kool-aid.

The novel version is far different from the movie versions we have seen over the years. "Don Quixote loud incoherent man who you try to avoid eye contact with and cross the street to avoid is significantly closer to the truth. - Classics Summarized: Don Quixote

The great irony is the lives of the people he encounters are far more interesting than the fantasy world he lives in.
 
for a moment I thought they were sending these famous exploding Galaxy Note 7 tablets
 
Are they still on this? I thought Epic wasn’t fighting for themselves as much as fighting for the “small time developers” to get Apple to take a smaller share of the App Store price. They won - it should be over!

What? It was never about that? Odd.

Wait we’re still talking about this?? I genuinely forgot this ever happened. So minor compared to everything else that’s happened this year.

Typically hamfisted attempt at guerilla marketing by Samsung. I mean, if you're going to take an underhanded shot at Apple, at least get the typeface right! it looked like someone was too cheap to license the actual Garamond font, and opted for a knockoff instead. It would be like using Arial to stand in for Apple's San Francisco typeface.

The package tries to invoke class, but it just looks tacky. The jacket is in that awkward part of the fashion timeline where it doesn't look retro enough to be cool, while appearing old enough to still be way out of style.

And using a knockoff version of a typeface that they no longer use.

MR wants clicks. And boy are we adhering to their wishes!
