How about that touch bar

How about that touch bar?. That's a rhetorical question, because Apple doesn't care about your answer. They basically engineer to some ideal, then tell testers "use this until you change your mind about it." The design is set, the only point of the test is to discover how long it takes for people to accept it. "Hey here's an ipod with no buttons, how long did it take for you to forget what a scroll wheel was like?" Best believe I hate this touch bar. But Apple knows how long it will take before I stop hating it so they don't care. Well. Guess what. I found the hole in the loop. You can't get a person used to something they don't use.

Speaking of brain washing. How bout the singularity. Touch bar is just the start. I guarantee everything is conforming to the ipad mini. Phone getting bigger, laptops getting smaller. Less and less buttons more and more glass. All the testers kicking and screaming with their top secret unreleased button-less surface pro macs, monitored by gray bearded labcoats, counting the days it takes for the touch typing gene in their dna to die. 2 yrs? Check. Well. Guess what. I have a polaroid solution
