  • Apple is pretty famous for doing a lot of price ladder stuff. You can jump up to the next tier of a product by paying an extra $100 or so, and then once you get into that next tier, you see that the upgraded product has a cool feature you can unlock for another $100 or so.

    Those price ladders are pretty carefully crafted and they make the company a lot of money. I’ll bet that they’re going to keep those price points the same until all MacBooks and iPads are being sold sans charger.

    That said, there are ways that Apple could’ve given people a complimentary chargers if they needed one. Hell, if I spend n about of money, give me credit toward a free item.

    The real reason people shit on AI here is because it’s a platform with a bias toward people who are fairly tech savvy and or work in a technology field. Which is why every 3rd technology post here is a Linux circle jerk.

    A lot of users here understand the technologies and are working in spaces where they’re being asking to “implement AI” by idiots who don’t understand the tech and aren’t trying to solve a user problem.
