i mean do fight w/me here, i kinda feel distasteful having said that
I mean, his choice in who crafted physical objects for him was right-on but the dude didn't really have a definitive personal style other than a lack of putting effort into his personal style
mansion with no furniture -> jeans/new balance/turtleneck were his trademarks
his brilliance was as a taskmaster

right, but you can't tell me the guy didn't have the aura of apple design about him and that it wasn't part of his appeal imo--especially as the guy who had a second coming that revolutionized the company and brought about the products that design people jizz over.
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 10 October 2011 21:35 (twelve years ago) link
how was he a shiny product? like, his career or his personal life or his ability to make good stuff at the end of his life?

Nice work in Chicago--glass windows of the Apple Store covered with multicolored Post-It notes, each with a personal wish. Crowd outside snapping photos (silent snaps).

Hey have you guys heard that one of the side effects of cancer treatment is hair loss? I know, right?
xp that other dude is not balding, he has a shaved head and a widows peak.

wtf is this? My point was that ~imo~ his haircut does not fit with the Apple design aura
― Autumn Almanac (Schlafsack), Monday, 10 October 2011 22:51 (twelve years ago) link
The point is it may be less "haircut" than "making the best of a bad situation for someone who does not want his head shaved."

maybe haircut is physical representation of ipod's halo effect on mac sales?

One of Steve's less-discussed legacies is how he, more than any other single person, made it acceptable to wear casual clothes at work. Before Apple, *nobody* who was the CEO of a huge company would give a keynote address wearing jeans and sneakers. The hair was part of the same aesthetic - just as he didn't want (for himself or his employees) to be constrained by uncomfortable suits, neckties, and leather shoes, he didn't feel like futzing with his hair for an hour before the big speech.

idk, i have been looking pretty casual at work for a long time. i have really lowered that tone.

xp Yeah, the scope of people feeling this loss seems without any of the usual barriers - I mean even ESPN was talking about Steve Jobs instead of football. Several of the signs with rearrangable letters that you see in front of stores, hotels, shopping malls around here have goodbye messages for Steve on them.

one thing this thread has made me think of is peoples tendency to want to define someone by the worst thing theyve done and whether thats legit or not - and then theres the tendency to want to make the worst thing the persons done seem worse than it is
