You know how in SciFi movies everyone has the same phone? This is why.
Huh, I always put that down to the fiction part of science fiction 😉 Can you imagine a scifi story where the lead says "oh, sorry, I can't send you this file cause you don't have a [brand device]"? 🤣
Sure, a sci-fi comedy.
At some point they have to go on a quest to dig up the coder who wrote a piece of software that stopped working but it's so old nobody knows hpw to fix it anymore, so they need to do a National Treasure type adventure to find the journals and notes of the guy who wrote ImageMagick.
I'd watch that movie about planned obsolescence and shitty tech infrastructure growing ever-more-fragile.
I'll buy that for a dollar 😁
There will always be at least one person who doesn't.
I'll go live in a shack in the woods cut off from humanity before I ever give Apple a dime of my money.
Yes but the SciFi movies are not about people living in wood shacks so we don't see them.
I would like to see that sci-fi movie though
For all we know Locke is a SciFi movie about guy living in the year 2050 and refusing to use modern phones and cars due to privacy concerns.
