I'm probably weird but I don't really care what Apple does in their closed platform marketplace.
It's not over but we need to hope that Mecklenburg swung Dem extremely hard
Oh okay.
Well I don't care what the headlines say tomorrow. This race being this close is very bad news for the GOP.
Lol won't stop the Dems in Disarray takes from CNN/NYT
I'm just gonna drop this with no context:
Maybe he's just a weirdo.
It didn't stop after Dems won big last year either, so what else is new.
I don't know how to read this and thus all I see is a mooninite giving me the finger.
There are tones of problems with big tech we should tackle... I feel like the App Store is super low on that list.
Umm... someone in her inner circle needs to talk to her about this one lol
This is only partially her team. I say this as a fan, but we're seeing Warren's weakness right now. She's the candidate of "plans"...she churns them out like McDonald's churns out chicken nuggets. And that's the thing...a lot of Warren's plans are...frankly, shit.
I'm really needing someone to take her to task for that.
I mean I genuinely don't get it and am probably a shillary witch.
Apple doesn't have a monopoly on the smartphone OS market.
They operate a walled garden marketplace on their OS and set the rules anyway.
What constitutes antitrust/competition law violation?
Would it be illegal for Apple to e.g. not allow Spotify on iPhones?
I mean I only vaguely recall the 90s antitrust against Microsoft and pre-installing IE. My old Galaxy had a bunch of Samsung bloat, my new Pixel had all the Google Apps?

I did not see the argument the EU had against Google and Android either. So what do I know?
It's 28% of percents reported that doesn't include the early vote.
Remember this guys. % reported =! % of the vote left. Well over 60-70% of the vote is probably in in Mecklenburg.
Maybe Carlson got it wrong. Maybe what he was really saying is that "John Bolton is a man who left the WH."
Union's all counted up now it's down to Mecklenburg
It's bodes well since it's almost a 4 point improvement from 2018 so far

I kinda want Tulsi on stage so someone will ask her why she goes on a white supremacists TV show
Honestly, if I were Gates I'd be a lot more pissed off than he is. Looking at Big Tech today it's a fucking joke that Microsoft was very nearly broken up over Internet Explorer.
To clarify, I think that ruling was a good thing. It's just shit when you think of the next to no regulation current Big Tech faces. It's a real regression from the 90s, and I don't think we're better off for it.
I agree but I think it's kind of inevitable with her. The dollar menu is coming back loaded with Forma's plans. She's super intelligent so I know someone could get through to her on her thinking differently in regard to the app store. But the way in which she communicates a la plans galore is basically baked into her political DNA.
I like Warren, I feel reassured by her primary polling, but I hope that can translate to a solid lead in the GE as well. And yes there are GE polls from time to time but we are so far out they're kind of hard to take seriously. I just hope she's not gonna be locked into that "eww regional/Northeastern librul who can't win" stereotype.
I was a Biden stan for the longest time but over the past few months it's hard for me to feel the same way. I really was excited about Kamala but I don't think she's going to pull it off and I question her political aptitude and how passionate she is about what she's preaching after the whole "retard" incident. Mayor Pete and Beto are pretty cool, not sure if they're Presidential material.
I guess at this point I don't care who wins but they have to beat Trump. Even if it's Biden, fine. But I have so many concerns about how he'd run his campaign, he is like in his final form that is far more extreme than the gaffe machine of 2008 and 2012.
Because losing close House races is apparently your stepping stone to a Senate run now
(I get that the conditions are different).
Yuuuup, it's a wrap in NC-09. Not super disappointed, it's a special election in a R+12 district in a gerrymandered district and they only won by less than a couple of points more than likely so no big deal. Onwards and upwards.
Still though, would've been nice for the narrative.

Literally. I believe the Bishop endorsement tweet said the exact same thing, just swapped out the names. It's like Sasse only purchased the "Basic" package endorsement from Trump. A grifter like Trump needs more if you want a Tweet with custom copy.
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
I just looked up this.
This simultaneously seems bad...
But also... I don't really care weirdly?
I mean I'm not going to use another search, mail, maps, app store, browser anyway? It's not hard to find others... But why would I bother.
I'm lazy. Plus they have mindshare and brand with me already. If they weren't pre-installed... I would find them and install them?
