Well yeah obviously apple aren't the first to come out with a hot water receptacle with an ergonomic handle, but they just do it better don't they? I'll be in the queue at midnight waiting for mine

Yeah, but what you’re forgetting is it’s a b2b mug handle. It’s not for your normal consumer, it’s premium.

If you pour any non-Apple proprietary liquids into the mug (i.e. poor people liquids), the cup turns green to signal to bystanders that you're less worthy of love.

Theres a hole in the bottom. The plug is also $999

The hole is for you to fill the cup, because filling from the top makes too much sense.

Is that an actual apple mouse or a satirical photoshop? Because I could see both being the case.

This is real. The magic mouse cannot be used while charging, Apple designed it this way because it gives the mouse a sleek appearance and Jony Ive (Apple's former chief design officer) loves form over function. He is responsible for many of the most idiotic design decisions in modern apple history like the butterfly keyboard, touchbar on MacBook Pro, the choice to make the devices so thin that they thermal throttle like crazy, the MacBook with only a single USB-C port and no other ports. I think he is also partly responsible for getting rid of the headphone jack, but I could be wrong. You can actually see once he was no longer at the company, the MacBook Pro series became thicker and had better cooling, as well as a normal keyboard (though they still have other controversial design decisions).

Apple, Think DiFfEreNt...

Also available separately: Convenience Adapter™ that allows the iHandle™ to connect to the iMug™.

You forgot the $500 glue needed to put it together, otherwise it will be incompatible

They've made the connector an open standard so that 3rd party accessory makers can make their own handles!

Will it let me download more RAM though?

[–] DonJefe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago
