You can tell how old an image is by counting the jpg artifact rings. This one is from 2005 by my estimates.

For one, it's got Steve Jobs in it, and he's been dead since 2011.

If I were to make the same meme today, I would still use him, so I'm not sure this dating method holds any water.

I think that's the right choice. If i need to imagine "apple boss" the face of jobs appear in my mind. The current one is Tim Cook, right? I'm sure I'd recognize him if I saw his picture, but at the miment I'm not able to picture him.

Did he always dress like Steve Jobs? I mean, I do too, but it feels creepy

[–] wick@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago

I'm sure his wardrobe is carefully curated by a committee to sell more phones.

Recognizing Tim Cook is easy, he's the puckered hole between two flabby buttcheeks.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Fair enough

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

he's been dead since 2011

how is this new to me 💀

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I've no idea. I've made probably 50 jokes about "the ghost of Steve Jobs" in the last decade

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

i knew he was the founder of Apple but that's where I was out of fucks to give

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Oh, well you may be interested to know he died because he attempted to cure cancer by eating nothing but fruit

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

by eating nothing but fruit

let me guess, apples?

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Nah just fruitarianism

[–] LilaOrchidee@feddit.de 3 points 6 months ago

An exercise in fruitility

And it is stil, accurate (except S. Jobs death). Fuck we do not evolve. :(

I feel the Linux - Linux fanboy is very wrong these days. It does not have a monitor at 22 degrees

[–] redcalcium@lemmy.institute 4 points 6 months ago

I'm often blinded by flickering due to the recent Nvidia issue on Wayland so it's still accurate.

[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 5 points 6 months ago

Still relatable to this day, though.

Those square screens are gone now.
