Gen Z as well. My childhood was all cracking things open and seeing what’s inside. Then when I was in my teens they stopped making things easily openable. Fuckers

That’s my problem with Apple. They hide all files, treating is as a magic box with an incredible search function. But it prevents the user from understanding, and thus learning.

My wife has an iPhone and iPad and I thought she was an idiot trying to describe what was happening when I sent her an ePub file. Turns out that’s just the way it works…

Are you talking Apple back in the day or Apple now? It sounds like you’re talking about Apple now. It still sucks compared to a real *nix but you can still pull up a terminal.

Apple is just overcooked Linux.
