The "Rape Joke" from the prior articleSome of the complaints Mic reported on include a female engineer whose "male-dominated" team made jokes about an office intruder coming to "rape everyone."
SERIOUSLY?

Apple is horribly toxic, sexist environment

Re: Apple sucks
At a tech company? That's shocking! Shocking I say!Women only make up 32 percent of its total workforce
People like “Danielle” are simply the worst human beings in existence. Toxic work environments are a real thing, and she's using it as an excuse to try and get attention on herself. Why? Because she's a miserable cunt. Claiming to feel unsafe because someone quoted a famous internet meme is not about the work environment, but about how this woman is living a miserable life and is desperate for attention and acceptance.
Fuck her and fuck everyone that empowers her. I love that they gave her a month off and she didn't realize the real reason was that they didn't want her around.
You won't lose your air buds because Tim Cook doesn't lose his, so rest easy.
Nobody exercises or dances harder than Tim Cook, and since all ears are exactly the same, he's 100% right.

But what about TWO Airpods?I have never personally had one [AirPod] fall out.

Seriously. Meme reference = joke about someone entering the office and raping everyone.

I don't have a horse in this race but I can't keep earbuds from staying in on their own, either, no matter which sizes I try. And the left falls out easier than the right. This seems like a bad decision to me.

Re: Apple sucks
Maybe you should stop wasting your time convincing people women need special consideration in order to get hired to do certain things and instead spend energy convincing girls in school to move into more math/science areas. But shit, you wouldn't want to oppress any of them by telling them what careers they should and shouldn't shoot for, would you?Mr. Cook,
I have been the only woman on the [redacted] Team in the [redacted] organization under [redacted]. [Redacted] is the head of that team, with 30+ people. I have attempted to change this, by trying to alter the recruiting methods, and improve the culture.
This is the part that's pissing me off because it follows immediately after her pointing out she's the only woman. The subtle implication is that when men hold a monopoly on the office, psychological domination is the status quo and anyone who doesn't share the frat boy mentality is unfairly discriminated against by some shadowy cabal of bros.Except, yesterday, I was greeted with rape jokes in our work chat.
Not to be brutal, but that's your fucking problem and hangup. If one cannot make jokes about anything which has caused trauma to someone, *incredible* or otherwise, firsthand or not, then it means your fragile feelings have placed a gag order on everyone within your earshot. But whatever, she gets a month off, comes back, and promptly starts bitching:Rape jokes in work chat is basically where I completely draw the limit. I would prefer not for folks to make fun of something, which for me personally has caused me *incredible* trauma, having actually been sexually assaulted in the past.
Yes. Nothing changes, Danielle, because you are a dumb-ass that probably spent that month doing next to nothing when you could have used to to defuckify your head.So as far as I can tell , nothing of any serious consequence has happened within the last month.
Apparently, I’m supposed to return to work as normal? Nothing changes? I had a month off due to PTSD triggers, and business as usual.
Lovely.

Re: Apple sucks
There are some real problems with how some women are treated in some parts of the world.
This is not one of those problems.

....... you're talking about islamic cultures, right? they hate women, gays, and transgenders, as a rule?

Re: Apple sucks
Sure, those are real problems.
There are many others.
This still ain't one.
PS: On behalf of Corey Haim I'll also point out that a "rape joke" that is not specifically directed at women is not inherently sexist. People who aren't women get raped, too.

Re: Apple sucks
Hah.
While the TechRax video demonstrates that the headphone hole he drilled does not actually work, it hasn’t stopped several users from actually trying it out. In fact, the YouTube video is filled with comments from people who claim to have tried the technique—only to discover that drilling a hole into the smartphone leaves it unusable.

Who steals ideas better than Apple? Nobody!
They probably shouldn't have copied this feature...
Oh, but it gets better...

The phone got so hot that it damaged the dresser, a pair of glasses and two Apple Watch stands.
Wow! How compassionate! "Hey, we almost killed you, but we'll give you an old phone to replace that one if you want."The company offered Estrada a new stand for the Watch, a charger and a free replacement of the iPhone 6 Plus. An upgrade to the iPhone 7 was also offered, but she’d have to pay for it.

Re: Apple sucks
Whoa, whoa, whoa. You expected to use 100% of your battery?
In my case, my iPhone 6s will turn off with around 30-40% battery remaining, and will act like it’s run out of battery. To fix the issue, I have to plug my phone in for a bit, which will promptly show me that, miraculously, I still have 30% battery life left.

Couple suing Apple for FaceTime because the driver who killed their kid was using it.
I rarely come to Apple's defense, but this is a ridiculous lawsuit.
