The bunch has been spoiled...

Remember when Apple used to be a GOOD company?

Steve Jobs did great work when he came back in the late 90's to reinvent the company.  He was thinking different, and man, did Apple come up with some great ideas.  The iPhone, a combination of a cell phone and an iPod took the cake.

Then his successor, Tim Cook, had to fuck shit up...

I was having issues with syncing my iPhone Wednesday morning.  I was going to use my day off for Veterans Day to play Pokemon Go and have some fun with the Wild Area event this week.  And I concede that some of the problems I've been experiencing lately are self-inflicted.  Not being patient enough to wait.  Fortunately, my wife was kind enough to help me out, as she's been a huge Apple fan for years.

But after it was all said and done?  Her affinity for products from Cupertino is a double-edged sword.  She had "bought" (in quotes because I don't know if we're paying any money for it) into the Apple Music service.  I am not a fan.  It fucks up my carefully meticulously collection of albums and songs, organized on several levels with databases and spreadsheets, constantly reviewed and corrected (if needed).  I like being in charge of it.  Apple Music service fucked all that up.  It says "I'll manage all of it!!", then throws all my hard work into its dumpster fire.  My songs are not on my iPhone anymore.  "I'll store all your music in the cloud!!"  Did I ASK you to do that?  Fuck no!!

Now, the one rotten apple that someone with their company added to my bunch spoiled the whole thing.  Thank god I still use Windows, or they might have removed all my songs from my PC.  If Steve Jobs was still alive, I bet he'd be losing his shit over this.

I hope he's hard at work now preparing a special kind of hell for Tim when his time comes.  If I was Steve, I know I would be...
