Not the Grandparent, but I'd point out you turned it into an Apple vs everything else thing =]

How is your comment relevant to the grandparent comment in any way? A_COMPUTER was talking about the graphic design?

Note: the grandparent comment was substantially edited to remove the references to Apple, $20 flip phones, and Doom9, which might make this and other sibling comments a little out of sync.

I think you just proved the grandparent's point.

I think the grandparent was parodying patent language ;).

Haha, yeah, just look at the second line of the grandparent comment...

My original was Fitt's, which may make grandparent make more sense.

Grandparent [comment].

Yeah. Btw, I accidentally downgraded your grandparent post, so I upped this parent one.

Your grandparent but his child. :)

EDIT: I misread the grandparent post.

Clearly you interpreted the grandparent comment differently than I did. :-)

rusk | karma 4087 | avg karma 1.67 · | 2019-09-30 15:25:07+00:00

I think you've illustrated the grandparent's point perfectly!

(in a pleasingly condescending manner too - I might add!)

Please see my reply to grandparent.

That's really awesome - thanks for making me go back and actually look at it.

Upvoted the grandparent, just to keep it high in the list so that your comment would stay near the top of the page...

I think that the grandparent meant that you could sell it to end users.

jtbayly | karma 5198 | avg karma 2.1 · | 2021-09-25 09:42:33

Yeah, I meant to reply to the grandparent.

Grandparent asked for useful though :P

All of the things you say can be had by doing things grandparent's way with minor tweaks.
