  Bro what? It’s a greentext - it’s 4chan. They all need theraphy.

    Sure, but does nobody know what a paperweight is?

      No, they probably don’t 😅 just like floppy disks. The term now generally means “useless”

        That is literally the exact definition I am trying to explain to these worthless dumbfucks.

    Yes. The person who correctly points out that functional computers are not paperweights is a cultist. If you legitimately believe that, you need a whole lot worse than prison.

      computers

      Apple don’t make computers, they make wealth extractors.

  “Functional machine” is the working term here. But I guess we have different definitions of what counts as “functional” :)

    We do not have different definitions of a functional machine. If you think they’re overpriced, fine; underperforming per price:performance ratio? Fine. Whatever you want. But brand new Apple products work and you all sound ridiculous defending calling them paperweights.
