I think it's because Apple has a "fandom", whereas when's the last time you heard someone being a weird fan of Microsoft outside of Xbox? It just doesn't really exist. The people with Apple devices are often "fans" of Apple, not simply people who bought a product. I think it's that simple.
America is an incredibly evil country that has done considerable harm to the world in its brief existence.
because they gave me a license anyways
I think the people who already really like Apple would be okay with it and find a million reasons to justify it. I don't think that's a good thing.
The new album rules. My favorite of the year so far.

It's absolutely possible and there are several studies on the subject going back to 2020. Probably a part of why people are getting sick with things like RSV more regularly too.

for the purposes of this survey, Dippy is 100% a tankie. Read it in their own words:
Unfortunately one of the problems with tankies is they don’t call themselves that most of the time.
No I’m not [a tankie].
Dippy's a tankie, you heard it here first. This person loves crushing people with tanks. This person is an authoritarian monster that crushes people with tanks. Dippy's actually the tank driver in the tank man photo. Don't look up the video, Dippy 100% crushed that dude. Any video showing tankman walk away is an AI fabrication.
A ridiculous question. "Tankie" isn't a term anyone self-identifies with, it's mostly a term used by liberals to hurl at anyone to the left of them or anyone who agrees with western foreign policy. The survey results will be as meaningless as the term "tankie" itself.
I used Ubuntu for a long time, because it was easy to use and I wasn't really a power user on linux (was just using it on a cheap laptop for classes a long time ago). When I built a server for myself recently, I didn't really explore distros and plopped Ubuntu on it.
More recently, I got a new laptop and ended up installing Fedora on it. So far, I like Fedora a lot. I know there's probably a better distro out there for me, but this one worked without fiddling and I'm liking it a lot more than Ubuntu. Ubuntu snaps kinda screwed my server for a year or so. I need to replace Ubuntu on that soon, I'm just not looking forward to dealing with that so it silently stays Ubuntu.

Yoku's Island Express. Before playing it, I didn't like pinball or search-action games (metroidvanias). I ended up loving it. I still don't really enjoy pinball on its own, but I now have a deep love for search-action.
