The creepiest thing mine has done is have the Peanuts cartoon screensavers be relevant to the weather in my area. Seeing Snoopy and Woodstock get blown around on a windy day is oddly nice haha

I don't actually know its happening, I might just be more aware of the windy cartoons or rainy cartoons when I'm actually experiencing that weather ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

It's cutesy until it's not. Anybody who has long-term experience in recommending any brand will tell you that the brand will eventually decide they don't need to be outstanding in any category.

Apple just started pushing ads in its maps app, which was supposed to be the better alternative to Google Maps.

Right.. but the discussion is specifically about how Apple is pretty much the only consumer friendly TV device available right now. Hopefully a new, better one comes along but to your point, that one will eventually be shit too soooo idk whats the point its all going to burn
