7 Persistent but Untrue Myths About Steve Jobs

There are many myths about Steve Jobs that simply won't die. These are but seven of them.

You can find articles like this all over the internet from all different perspectives. So... to answer you question it's not fact. It's a recount of something that happened from "someone who was in the room" with their perspective. I'm sure there was another "person in the room" who saw things very differently... that's what happens when people get fried. However, you're free to choose which side of the fence you fall on as far as what YOU believe. I had the pleasure of actually meeting the man, so I have my own opinions... which I also wouldn't consider facts.

Fair enough we can have different opinions.
I wish I had been lucky enough to meet SJ. That would have been quite an honor!

0% chance this makes it out of R&D, an even lesser chance of me purchasing such a device.

The phone won’t do more than 2 functions only: call and DM via twitter, lol

 

[Isamilis]

Sad to see this place turn into clickbait, troll posts....

BTW if Tesla builds a phone with no data collection sharing of data, then they are out of the game. Data is king for these devices.

Hmm, I can see reason, why he took over twitter and start to build his own phone.

What would undoubtedly be a terrible phone by a terrible human…cool

Oh the brainwash. You know him I assume?

 

[AustinIllini]

Well if its like any of his other "creations" he will buy a phone/OS from someone else and then claim all the credit.

And it will be held together with masking tape.

 

[AustinIllini]

Oh the brainwash. You know him I assume?

He's not a great dude, but if his history is any indication, the phone will be shoddily built and not very good.

Musk is goading Tim Apple.

Did you work alongside Jobs? Do you have first hand knowledge or are you judging the man based on second or third hand accounts? Not having known him personally, I can only go by how he presented himself publicly. There is a gulf between the two in that regard.

Well who is going to present themselves publically as a douche?

Hec, I can't say but have read years ago before Apple was a big thing or was just gaining big with the iPhone.......not sure when but it was years ago,...... that he wasn't the nicest guy.

Elon isn't going to have a phone out of mid air anytime soon and doubt the die hard Apple peeps will just throw them away for a Tesla phone.
Hec I won't do it neither til I see results. I didn't buy an Android phone right away til the Samsung Galaxy 1's ,( in my case the Vibrant,) came out.
But i wont doubt him. If I was going to get solar on my house I'd go with Tesla over the fly by night companies.

where the hell is the downvote button

Yeah, why do we never get those?

 

[IllinoisCorn]

yeah but he berated employees yelled at them and ended their careers. He would demand people work for weeks on end and belittle and fire them if the balked at it. Some of the same things people are roasting Musk for Jobs did. But people celebrated those actions.

Then to be honest here twitter was over staffed and very unproductive and is now running at a higher capacity with less people.

Stop making sense!!

To find that answer, you just need to visit Twitter — where the water and vinegar of the internet collide.

Well yeah, just regular Joe internet tough guys that nobody knows lol.

 

[Evil Spoonman]

Why do people seem to care when Musk lies?

 

[egodspeed]

I'd buy it. I buy everything else Elon makes. I can care less about his political view because I'm not buying that.

 

[RedTheReader]

But Linux is on its deathbed

On phones, right? Because it’s doing better than ever on server, and gaining traction on desktop.

 

[Shirasaki]

Well then going by what you wrote there are no facts….only opinions…..at least as far as we humans can interpret

Gravity on earth dragging everything down to the surface is a fact. Sun being the Center of our solar system is a fact. Water able to penetrate anything given enough time is a fact. Elon Musk is the worst man in the world is hardly a consensus, not a fact.

 

[MuGeN PoWeR]

lol what a moron just living in his own world.

 

[tCdemon]

Jajajaja...I can already see it...twice as much as an iPhone, with gaps, and missing parts...warranty claims about 2-4 months out...order now and you will receive it in 12 to 14 months!

 

[Thehangmn]

No, he should just Buy google, and then fire everyone there too.

 

[Analog Kid]

I'd buy it. I buy everything else Elon makes. I can care less about his political view because I'm not buying that.

You bought a rocketship? 😳

 

[Sami13496]

it’s not just a phone he needs to launch. It would be relatively easy to man of his status to launch yet another Android device. But if the idea is to ditch both ecosystems he would have to develop new operating system and new ecosystem. Good luck with that 😄 Apple and even Android operating systems are result of years of developing and refining. If Elon would release an OS I can only imagine what a nightmare it would be from usability and user ecperience stand point.

 

[enterthemerdaverse]

You mean the Autopilot that exists in every Tesla sold today? Or the rapidly-advancing Full Self-Driving beta? Both things exist today.

Both of those are not road worthy and unsafe. Most cities in the world aren’t like those American cities that have 30 mile straight roads and no visible pedestrians. FSD will never be a thing in any car brand in cities like Paris, Hanoi or Mumbai that grew organically over 100s of years and are very densely populated with a lot of footfall.

A ticket on an exploding rocket ship or suicide colony on Mars.

Solar City was a fly by night scam.
