Yeah...I ask a question looking for objective reasons why people like something and a bunch of Apple fans lose their shit on me...aight... I got my answer...they don't wanna talk...they wanna yell about how you're wrong if you have an opinion that differs from theirs.

Hey, could you please stop posting flamewar comments? It's not what this site is for, regardless of how wrong other people are or you feel they are. I don't want to ban you again - we unbanned you a while back and it has mostly worked out pretty well, but if you keep posting this sort of thing, we're not going to end up having much choice.

On the other hand, these are great!

It would be a shame for HN to lose contributions like that, so if you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and be more mindful of the intended spirit of the site, we'd appreciate it.

Options beget choice. Choices need a decision, which requires energy. We can reframe what is called in german Innerer Schweinehund as our innate, hardwired wetware program to conserve energy. Lions and all other cats sleep most of the day, because hunting, which succeeds 1 out of 10 times, requires a lot of energy. We now live in an environment where food is abundant, no running after gazelles till think break down f…

That's nonsense. Having options doesn't mean you have to pick one. Having 1 choice or 10 with a default set is the same unless you start digging into options. This smells like "Apple Knows Best".

I don't use Apple products

Ive installed Linux on dozens of machines, wifi works out the box on about 8/10. Bluetooth (after driver download) on about 1/3 without doing more troubleshooting. On Mac? Both work 100% of the time on every one I've purchased. That's the difference. 100% vs 80%. If my software deployments broke 20% of the time at work, I would be fired.

And? Wifi works on 100% of the laptops I've installed Linux on out of the box because I select laptops with parts that Linux supports. Just like Apple makes their OS work for their components. Linux supports far more hardware out of the box than either MacOS or Windows.

People pay the "premium" because they do not have to make any effort in selecting which laptop will work out of the box. Effort takes time, time is money. In general, people would rather pay the money upfront, rather then pay with their time later.
