anthropy, 7 months ago to random

I saw someone on twix whining about the EU improving the iPhone,

with some insane hypothetical iphone with a punchcard and floppy reader, and I just couldn't help but think "yea this is an apple device I would actually buy, unlike literally any other iphone"

The image they posted, showing a big brick sized iphone with a lot of connectors of all types, slots for CDs, floppies and punchcards, and a battery hatch
People ratio-ing the original poster with comments like "bro they just said change the port" and "you say this as if it wouldn't be the best iphone ever"
Readers added context they thought people might want to know: "The EU only wants the USB-C support on the iphone and sideloading on the iphone"

@anthropy (before I say something. I’m an iPhone user myself and love working with my Mac…loving many things about apple BUT)

some of us r a little bit…ugh…bonkers.

some tend to see the iPhone as a sacred relict and apple as a devine goddes and don’t u dare to tell THEM what to change about THEIR vision…

the „forced“ usb c change is THE reason I’ll get myself a new phone for Christmas 😂 (former 12 pro max, now 15 pro max)

and the punch card adapter would be another one…secret kink dunno.
