Eh, to me it just feels like he made a bunch of excuses for apple. I dont need or care to understand a multibillion dollar company who loves to rip off the consumer.
Jordin Ward Rip off the consumer? Millions of people flock towards Apple because of the brand. Where else are you going to get iOS, and macOS, and the sleek modern lines of Apple products? Whether they make good products or not is always going to be opinionated. Whether people buy them is always going to be factual... I hate to burst your bubble, but Apple can’t possibly be ripping the consumer off when the consumer continues to pay more and more for their products.
The extra tools required is a mirror so you can see the fool who paid 700$ for wheels that’s more expensive then a entire set of new tires on your car... that don’t lock even....
@@noobyng because people are retards and would buy anything to find their self unique. While everyone alse has the same retarded overly priced product.
Or you can buy some luxury brand "premium" rims and tires and pay more for them than the cost of the car. That's the point of all this - luxury is expensive because if it wasn't, it wouldn't be luxury.
he wouldn't have done that even if he could. its too embarassing for him since tim cook went too far. even if he did he would go back to the grave avoiding all those reporters asking him for comments all day
I just watched him say “our products aren’t premium priced” and that’s when I remembered the wheels. He’d be spinning so fast in his grave smoke would be pouring out of the coffin.
He wouldn't care. Y'all seem to think he was some tech saint with wholesome morals and passion. He was little more than a wildly successful ruthless business man. So long as Apple stayed well within profit margins he would be ecstatic.
I mean my S10 was £800 and it was brand new with 75GB of data and 128GB of storage. You can still get flagships for a "reasonable" price. Then there's Apple and it all goes to shit. heY dO yOu guYs waNt a £1000 pHone?
Ofcourse, just look at the shitty cablle ties with a piece of paper saying LTT and the fucking cringewear they sell, Linus is a snake oil salesman himself
Looking back at this from 2022, it seems plausible that Apple already knew, thanks to their role in the industry, that economic, political, and social factors were going to make the manufacturer of of consumer electronics too unstable to manage traditionally. If true, they would presumably have sold those Wheels at a deranged price to introduce the market to this new level of demand price, so that the current, alienating price of tech didn't seem like as much of an encroachment.
The problem is that people will never stop writing about and making videos about it because the big creators and writers get a lot of views and clicks so they generate income and the small ones do it so that their channel or platform grows. And companies Like Apple know how to take advantage from that because companies like apple in the industry have reached a level (which is amazing) that they can manipulate markets without hitting that thought in the mind of general or passive users.

I don’t think age is the sole purpose that someone knows about a Limp Bizkit song
@@atomicpasta7073 I'd generally disagree. Limp is kind of ancient history tbh. Commendable discography but not universally relevant across age groups.
Lumpy Bisquick was a manufactured MTV band. Lots of "catchy" songs with easy to remember lyrics, and of course a bit of angst in there too.

pee is stored in the balls, why need your kidneys?
Doleey O - I’m disappointed that wasn’t an actual website
Not to be that guy, but if you were to sell both of your kidneys to buy the Mac Pro, stand, and wheels, you'd still have $2300 left. Apperently kidneys go for about $10K each.

Don't feed the troll feeder, Linus. The cycle goes on, only good choice is ignoring the whole situation. Moreover LTT is as much guilty of riling up about stupid BS and now tries to act above that.
Original Title: Here’s why Apple’s $700 wheels aren’t crazy.
More accurate title: Halo products and marketing to consumers.
Why marketing super high end products that most consumers won’t buy (like Titan series video cards) works.
Agreed.
But nobody would want to watch a Video with the second title, because they get tired before they even finished reading the title.
Yeah it was more of a video essay than a regular LTT video
Thank God these types of videos get occasionally made. This and videos like the Tom Scott video on why computers can't count.
At least a few people will shut up about things like "10 views 1000 likes smh"...
linus needs the publicity too his videos with apple in title get more views because its controversial and most ppl know about it.
He titled it that because of how mad he gets seeing these shitty opinion writers write about something they don't understand.

@@Lanurus more like free publicity.
@@Lanurus that part is not "good publicity" for Apple but it gives the reader trust that the writer isn't biased, so when he does praise other Apple products it feels truthful and trustworthy, unlike actual ads.

Eh, to me it just feels like he made a bunch of excuses for apple. I dont need or care to understand a multibillion dollar company who loves to rip off the consumer.
Jordin Ward Rip off the consumer? Millions of people flock towards Apple because of the brand. Where else are you going to get iOS, and macOS, and the sleek modern lines of Apple products? Whether they make good products or not is always going to be opinionated. Whether people buy them is always going to be factual... I hate to burst your bubble, but Apple can’t possibly be ripping the consumer off when the consumer continues to pay more and more for their products.
The extra tools required is a mirror so you can see the fool who paid 700$ for wheels that’s more expensive then a entire set of new tires on your car... that don’t lock even....

Or you can buy some luxury brand "premium" rims and tires and pay more for them than the cost of the car. That's the point of all this - luxury is expensive because if it wasn't, it wouldn't be luxury.

Looking back at this from 2022, it seems plausible that Apple already knew, thanks to their role in the industry, that economic, political, and social factors were going to make the manufacturer of of consumer electronics too unstable to manage traditionally. If true, they would presumably have sold those Wheels at a deranged price to introduce the market to this new level of demand price, so that the current, alienating price of tech didn't seem like as much of an encroachment.

The problem is that people will never stop writing about and making videos about it because the big creators and writers get a lot of views and clicks so they generate income and the small ones do it so that their channel or platform grows. And companies Like Apple know how to take advantage from that because companies like apple in the industry have reached a level (which is amazing) that they can manipulate markets without hitting that thought in the mind of general or passive users.
