    I never would mind admitting when I'm wrong - because I'm an actual adult.

    My value added is that everyone can trust what I say is correct.
    And part of that trust is openly admitting when I'm wrong - which I did.

    You Apple trolls are nothing like me in that your ego doesn't allow that.
    Your ego is fragile because you've been told you're stupid your whole life.

    So don't ever make the mistake of assuming I'm anything like you trolls.

    As I said, there is one thing iOS can do that Android cannot do.
    And that is access ports below 1024 for servers such as for SMB.

    However...

    I can't name a single other thing though that iOS does that Android can't.

    Name it and we'll discuss it, which is what adults do on adult newsgroups.

    If you think there's another functionality other than servers on privileged ports that you feel iOS can do that Android can't do, just name it.

    Note that we're not talking about brand names but actual functionality.

    For example,nospam would tout AirDrop as a unique Apple feature for fast,
    local file sharing but Android has had a similar feature for years called Nearby Share (now evolving into Quick Share in collaboration with Samsung
    and Google).

    Yet many iPhone users still believe Android lacks this capability because
    Apple branded it so effectively and Android's version wasn't as heavily marketed.

    So name a functionality (not a brand name) you feel iOS can do that Android can't.

    Once you realize they won't exist, then you're ready to learn why.

    I can't name a single other thing though that iOS does that Android can't. >> Can you?

    You're a man child troll who spends his every waking moment trolling newsgroups for products you hold a seething hatred for.

    The adults on this child-like Apple newsgroup will note that both Chris and Jolly Roger claimed there is something else iOS can do that Android can't.

    Yet, the response from those child-like Apple trolls was rather revealing. Nonetheless, the question is apropos for this iPhone & Apple related ng.

    Q: *What else do you feel iOS can do that Android doesn't already do?*
    A: ?

    Note: Once these Apple herd animals finally understand there's almost
    nothing that iOS can do that Android hasn't done long ago, then, & only
    then, they are ready to begin to understand Apple's strategy as to why.

    For the adult record, neither Chris nor Jolly Roger have come up with a
    single item to back up their claim that "there are others" iOS can do.








    Understanding why iOS is so astoundingly limited is a key step in adults understanding Apple's strategy of designing iOS devices as dumb terminals.

    FTR it is Arlen who famously makes unsubstantiated claims. Even when he's
    been routinely corrected, he continues with the same claims for weeks and months and years.

    True to form as described by JR Step 1 is denial.

    The Apple trolls are deathly *afraid* of what amounts to a simple query:

    From: Marion <marion@facts.com>
    Newsgroups: misc.phone.mobile.iphone,comp.sys.mac.advocacy
    Subject: Is there really only one thing that iOS can do
    that Android can't do?
    Date: Sat, 2 Aug 2025 17:37:54 -0000 (UTC)
    Message-ID: <106lidi$6h7$1@nnrp.usenet.blueworldhosting.com>

    In previous threads, I've proven by my own detailed testing, that there
    is at least one thing non-jailbroken iOS can do which unrooted Android
    can't.

    But... is there anything else?


    Once you know the answer to that question, you know a lot about Apple's fundamental strategy of designing the iPhone as a crippled mobile device.

    But until you can answer that question, you don't know anything at all.
    Once you understand the answer, then I can begin to teach you why.

    And now he just pretends that never happened, right along with
    brainrotdude. The fascinating thing is they actually believe if they lie
    we'll all just magically forget about it as if it never happened. They
    actually believe people are as fucking dumb as they are. It's pathetic behavior.
