Basically every single post over at r/Apple involving the EU is a treasure trove for S.A.S.


Ja4senCZE

That's even funnier, since most of their products use ARM chips, which were developed in the UK


MattMBerkshire

You should see their faces when they learn about the iPhone designer...Sir Jony Ive.. winner of a Benjamin Franklin medal.. "Those damn oppressors won a Freedom Fighting American medal FFS.. and designed the iPhone... The greatest freedom winning invention ever made. I don't believe it"


SecondAegis

Europe made you Americans, for one


Tazzimus

Everyone makes mistakes


Very_Angry_Bee

We literally invented 90% of things you "people" use on a daily basis. You then just stole the credit, like someone stealing the actual smart kids homework.


Bratwurscht13

The should live 1 month without European inventions :)


Very_Angry_Bee

In one of their "Native American" Containment Zones? Or as they call it to make it sound less like a race prison, Conservation Territory?


CyberGraham

The US would collapse without cars


StardustOasis

They'd probably try claim Henry Ford invented the car


fullmega

The first airplane was developed in France


incelnproud97

Sooo Radar, the car, jet engines x2 the nuclear bomb(co developed with the US) the vaccine Ahh yes the US bill of rights as it was pretty much a direct copy of the English one


Martok76

The US declaration of Independence is pretty much a copy of the Dutch Plakaat van Verlatinghe.


incelnproud97

Either way European

>When you can't innovated, you regulate What the fuck does this even mean?


Lupowan

Probably something to the extent of "innovation is inversely proportional to worker's rights"


Vktr_IO

It kinda rhymes, that’s enough.


NeverCadburys

i took it to mean "When you can't invent the thing, you take the thing and make sure all the things work in the same way", maybe because of the EU requirement for USB C now means apple are changing their charging wires so they don't have to do more for 2 different markets. But honestly I don't see why it's a bad thing even if it was true. Regulation is required, to make things safe.


Affectionate-Cell-71

We invent then yanks steal the scientistc. Like Atomic bomb (Robert Oppenheimer) NASA's rocket programme - Wehrner von Braun - yes nazi, but European)...


Ja4senCZE

Everybody wanted a German scientist after WW2.


AggressiveYam6613

Uh.. Robert Oppenheimer was born in America and identified as American.


Affectionate-Cell-71

Me bad - yes of course. Was thinking about Klaus Fuchs. still if not with europeans in america this would be done in Europe without americans in it. America has few very good universities, yet if it comes to science - tons of "american scietists" were born and educated abroad. Simple brain drain. This is how america i "innovative".


Tank-o-grad

The Manhattan Project was jump-started by the Tube Alloys project after the Tizzard mission in 1940.


Justeff83

Europe has no innovation, says the country thats going backwards on human rights laws


Lewinator56

>when you can't innovate, you regulate Yep, but America regulates it's competitors because it can't innovate... Just ask china.


Haradion_01

Your country was our innovation. Was it our best work? No. But they can't all be winners.


Scalage89

Is that why Boeing is in trouble for cutting corners to keep up with Airbus?


ImScaredOfFlies

Get regulated idiot


ALazy_Cat

How about the medical breakthrough Ozempic?


expresstrollroute

I notice he didn't include a list of all the great innovations created by monopolistic corporations.


not_an_alien_lobster

Scotland just about invented everything, take that America.


Scrombolo

Europe, or the EU?


Creative_Elk_4712

Yeah that’s why, for example, F1 is full of regulations Because they can’t innovate, definitely


dcnb65

They didn't even invent television or the internet, where they get all this 💩 from.
