“Make something wonderful” is canonized
If only there was a person who actually had anything to do with the Cray 1 they could put on it instead? Maybe that person will even share the name with the computer?
It gets worse the more you think about it. Cray and Jobs had completely opposing paradigms for how to develop computers. Cray was always innovating and providing capability, Jobs was always simplifying and burying low-level tools.
As cool as it is to hate on Steve Jobs, he did a lot of things right and I believe the digital landscape would be better if he was still around.
🤮
Jobs wasn’t innovative, he knew innovative people and took their credit. He was a businessman.
Nah. Jobs was crazy innovative and a major driving force for making computers accessible to the general populace.
“Think different” meant don’t be a fuckin retard who forgot what it means to be human just to fit in with other retards.
He worked very hard to make you think this, yeah. Meanwhile all the people doing the work remained pretty obscure.
Yeah, you people are absolutely clueless.
Glad I stopped taking the average internet moron seriously. All you do is chase snowball effects for brownie points among each other.
In many ways, this is exactly what Jobs meant by thinking different. Clearly none of you are capable of it.
Awww, someone is having a temper tantrum.
While I usually encourage punching up, maybe you shouldn’t do that with the average internet moron.
If you think this is a tantrum then you’re just reaffirming all my assumptions about you.
The average internet user is a moron.
No content, only crying and whining? Classic tantrum.
you’re just reaffirming all my assumptions about you.
All the assumptions? Reaffirmed?!
The average internet user is a moron.
Yet even they still keep showing you up. That has to sting.
Yeah, you’re projecting now.
I’m just going to ignore you and let you get it out of your system.
Keep being average.
The fact you believe this just proves how big of a scam artist he was.
His biggest success (and scam) was how he sold himself as being some tech god, which is still believed by many even this long after his death.
You don’t have to be a tech god to not be a retard.
His whole shthick was about making computers accessible to laymen, which most people didn’t care about at the time.
If you trawl Linux forums, a lot of people still don’t care about it and blame users for not “studying” how they should use their system or its programs.
Have you considered thinking before posting or are you trying for a Facebook cringelord “Sound and the Fury” vibe? Maybe try not emulating Benjy so hard in the future.
The “1977 trinity” shows where personal computers were heading. Mr. Jobs was one salesperson.
Were Sacagawea and Susan B. Anthony too woke?
Guy died of cancer because he thought he knew better than doctors. What a fucking idiot.
So… The perfect face for a us currency
Steve Jobs was the Edison of personal computing.
Jobs was a glorified salesman. Edison was an oligarch notorious for lying, cheating, stealing, and his complete lack of ethics and morals.
I’m absolutely no fan of Jobs but Edison was the bigger bastard.
Jobs took credit for everyone else’s work. He presented himself as a visionary and a creator, when he was mostly just a liar and a thief.
Maybe Edison was worse. I’m not saying Jobs was worse than Edison. I’m saying Jobs fabricated a legacy that a lot of people still believe, and will believe for a long time.
Yeah I’ll agree to that.
Wasn’t Woz really the brain behind it all?
No. Woz was technically-minded, but he did not push for accessibility the way Jobs did.
What does accessibility mean in this context? That basically makes it sound like Jobs just lead the sales and marketing department.
One of several, but the first and probably most influential. Met Woz. He’s brilliant, but a weird dude.
gross.
fuck Steve Jobs.
is this heads/tails? i dont think steve jobs had nothing to do with cray-1?
So, you think Jobs had something to do with cray-1? What was it?
