Perhaps it will be helpful to review the specificpoint I;m asking you to clarify I wrote You wrote I wrote You replied There is nothing in the article about charging people to repair devices that were under warranty. So again, what are you saying?

Would you clarify what you mean? Because it sounds like you are saying Apple refused to repair malfunctioning keyboards that were under warranty, which I am not aware of as an issue.

Not to be pedantic, but defective keyboards were always covered under warranty. The issue is the standard warranty is only one year, much too short a timeframe for an essential component of a very expensive device. So that made the extended warranty a mandatory purchase, pushing the price premium even higher. It's estimated that some 80% of all Macs sold are laptops. What Apply announced was a repair extension program where they will repair a specific component of the units covered in the program, regardless of the warranty status of the device. https://support.apple.com/keyboard-service-program-for-mac-notebooks They even had to add the current generation of MacBook Pro laptops, that contain the 3rd revision of the failed keyboard design (which is estimated to still fail at a rate more than double the previous scissor keyboard design), likely because the amount of justified negative coverage was beginning to depress sales. This is a staggering admission, effectively "We know the current model is defective, just buy it and we will take care of you." Keep in mind, Apple has almost 100% visibility into the repairs needed by all their equipment, regardless of age. Based on the rest of your post, it appears you never bought a computer with the defective butterfly keyboard design (they are listed in the Apple article I linked), so avoided the issue, which I'm glad, no one should have to live with a failed design. A coworker has one and said it induced rage every time he had to use the builtin keyboard, until Apple repaired it. The amazing part is this has been going on for 4 years, when the MacBook was refreshed in 2015. Good news is in the last day, a reliable source is reporting that Apple is giving up on the new butterfly keyboard design and will be reverting to a more traditional scissor design as they refresh each model, starting with the MacBook Air refresh coming this Fall. Just before this news came down the wire, I was seriously considering buying a MacBook Pro from mid-2015, the last generation before the butterfly keyboard debacle, and hoping it would get me through until Apple got this sorted out. Obviously Apple gets almost no money from these sales of old used units, so it makes sense if they really move forward with this.

It was just an example, I didn't want to single out any real account handle.

Everytime I've submitted a review, there was a checkbox to control if that review would appear on my profile page, so it's possible for people to leave reviews that are only visible in the list of reviews on the page of reviewed provider. If the reviewer has a unique enough handle, you can execute a search at google.com for their handle and by adding the search modifier "site:rent.men" you will only get hits from the site. So the text in the search box would look something like oldNbusted site:rent.men

That's interesting, I always understood it to mean 'back in the/my salad days', but maybe I'm overly prone to see William everywhere...

I'll need to process that/that's a lot to process.

You could do much, much worse!

I went to see it, it's good, nothing to deep for sure, fun and a little funny. Kate McKinnon is hilarious as a rapacious American music industry operative.

Ah, funny thing, I think it's fine, because have an obvious shill for the site here posting lies and making personal attacks on forum members, I couldn't think of a better or faster way to discredit that entire operation.

My favorite is that because some web browsers have been unable to resolve the supplied A4A URLs, that the @LeonTrotsky account is a sock puppet. Since this argument is a logical fallacy (the first part has nothing to do with the second part) I would expect this to be befuddling. I'll take a Hawaiian!

You beat me to it! I applaud you! Not the subject of confusion in this topic, but I am always amused when regular people say 'the internet' when they mean the world wide web. I only correct them if it's relevant.

While I don't like most people, I am a very keen observer of them. So I certainly enjoy observing someone I find interesting (for whatever reason, including physical attraction) in different scenarios, including being out in public. Also, shared experiences (even if they are not experienced together) are a foundation of interpersonal interactions. As a fan of the BFE, a diversity of activities enhances the experience. I enjoying observing reactions, in real time, good, bad, or indifferent. My impression is that people who are prone to be disapproving is it almost always revolves around the monetary aspect, which I wouldn't expect to be a factor in this forum. For example, in a scenario where where an older guy connects with a genuine 'daddy-chaser', and finances are not a factor, many times the same people who tut-tut over public displays of escorting will say 'how lucky you are!'. Having said that, here on the forum, I've always found the disapproving puzzling, as it denies the escorts their own agency, which is to say, that there is something wrong with an escort agreeing to such an public engagement, 'they are only doing it for the money'. I know when I was younger, as most of the escorts tend to be, I sure as hell didn't want to hear some old dude tell me what I should and should not be doing based what they personally approved of, so their advice was not based on my own best interests.

Just saw this:

The obsession with thin, a feature no one was asking for on the pro side, has crippled the keyboards since 2016. The guy who was driving this is leaving the company, so hopefully it will get fixed. I am overdue for a refresh, but not happening until they get this sorted.

I know the feeling. After the SCOTUS decisions today, I had a long call with a friend, it was some quality ranting. Anyway, thanks for restoring my faith!

Not such a leap, mostly because you didn't actually say anything, you implied..something. I was kinda expecting better from you.

He didn't put me through this. He also wouldn't do any of the things he agreed to do before we met, so maybe he's not just a good example.

I'm good at the moment after I bought out the store brand white flyless stretch boxer briefs at Nordstrom. But I am definitely checking out Hanro.

It happens. Whenever I reach out, I try to keep in mind that basically I'm imposing on them in a way they may never have thought would happen, so I keep my expectations nonexistent.

How about the link itself? So all the people who could not load https://www.adam4adam.com/profile/view/SexyAsianStud go ahead and test the mobile variation https://m.adam4adam.com/profile/view/SexyAsianStud

My favorite is when accounts on my ignore list downvote my posts.

I've observed a lot of these free sessions, and I find them real puzzling. Usually there is someone who is clearly in very poor condition and the trainer is putting them through the grinder. Is it a conspiracy to make them so worn out they never come back, even though they keep paying for a membership?
