I don't approve of the cult of Jobs. Buncha fucking consumer zombie Applewhores all over his jock for pimping slick looking but shoddily constructed weapons of mass distraction.

God damn this is a terrible movie, not because it's poorly-structured, but because Steve Jobs was an absolutely terrible person if this is really how he was. I'm sorry to hear it took him as long to die as he did. What a loser.

the hippy generation was a failure.
we have a better chance now of being a productive hippy generation, but we still aren't productive.
so basically hippies aren't productive and Steve Jobs is like the prototypical hippy.

Yea. The movie itself was pretty good I thought as far as cinematography and direction but they indeed depicted Jobs as a total douche. I hope he wasn't like that in real life. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt since he's dead.

I lieked old macs... Power PC's and the likes. Definitely a far cry from the neo-plastick hipster sheit they sell now.
So likewise, I'm sure he was a super bright innovative, slightly sheisty guy who started strong on his former characteristics - but business and money started to bring out the latter more with time.

Jobs was very ambitious and competitive, also highly focused. That probably didn't make him the nicest person for all the people worked with. But at the end of the day, he did get the job done. That's the other side of the same coin.

Here's some objective information about Steve Jobs from an utterly reputable news source.
Quote:
Steve 'Rim' Jobs (Steve Jewbs) was the world's second greatest douchebag, the bearer of the Reality Distortion Field, he was the Antichrist, the man who broke Woz's heart, and the man whose company (Apple) has had to be paid by Microsoft to stay in business. He is also the great messiah of Apple and the mysterious power behind homosexuals. Steve Jobs was the world's most lovable asshole. His real name was Berkley Blue until 1976, when his co-workers renamed him "Jobs" due to him being handy or something, in more ways than one...
On September 14th, 2010, it was revealed that Mr. Jobs was in fact a ninja as well.
On August 24, 2011, a gaunt Mr. Jobs resigned as Apple CEO, heralding the death of the company (and his own). He will be re-buried in 3 to 4 months when a newer, better coffin is released.
On October 5, 2011, Mr. Jobs died after catching a bad case of death. Some argue it was the reaction of God, being disappointed by the revelation of the iPhone 4S instead of the iPhone 5. Others argue that it was his own damn fault for being too hipster for mainstream treatments like chemotherapy, medicine, heterosexuality and any treatment that was managed by a non-apple computer. He instead opted for much trendier and colorful crystal therapy, homopathy, acupuncture, and chiropractic treatment.

From what I understand he was in fact a douchebag but I wouldn't take the movie as being 100% factual necessarily.
I saw a parody of this movie called "iSteve" that was pretty funny. A good tv show in a similar vein is "Halt and Catch Fire," about a fictional company making one of the first IBM clones around the same time the original Macintosh was introduced. There is only one season of it so far though.

I've read about him and he was that way. He'll ridicule people and single them out and tell them they fucking suck and fire them on spot.
I couldn't finish the movie because it pissed me off.

I think he wasn't necessarily a douchebag. I think he was just focused, demanding and quite inflexible when it came to altering his vision or his approach to things. Working with Jobs must have been stressful, as recognized by many who have spent time with him, but others also attest to the fact that Jobs' circle could also be very energetic, productive and stimulating. Different strokes for different folks. I doubt I would have been happy working directly for him, but others certainly have enjoyed it - at least at times. Putting the guy down as a douchebag because of his demanding management style doesn't do justice to his character, I think, just as it doesn't do justice to him by portraying him as a demigod.

that's probably because he is a dick, he was into holistic medicine and believed all
that good vibes and crystal energy shit but to illustrate my point, whe is the last
time you've heard of someone that is nice becoming mega wealthy? yeah, that's
because it doesnt happen. complete assholes get rich

He certainly achieved a lot in his life and that itself is impressive, but I think that's kind of a separate issue from the question of whether or not he often acted like a shitty person. IMO he was more than just a douchebag, but he was still a douchebag (both personally and professionally.)

Wozniak seems like a fucking hero. Jobs was a gigantic fuck face, but evidently very good at making people think excessively thin, shitty computers are good.

That's a very good point.
To answer your question, no. Hitler does not get a pass from me.
I've never been interested in Jobs enough to do any real research on him as a person.
Everything I know about him comes from the media, this movie, and a netflix documentary about Apple.
The pass I said I was giving him is based solely on lack of knowledge and/or interest in the guy.

I was honestly surprised as to how much of a dick he is in that movie. Never knew he could be such an asshole. If thats truly how he was?
The movie made it seem like Apple was never even his idea, he just came up with the name and innovations to build off of someone elses work

I don't know about funny, but it'd be quite ironic.
I can just see the future now. We'll be celebrating Steve Jobs' day as a national holiday. We'll eat chocolates shaped in the form of 1st gen Ipods on that day, and whack old IMac computers with a stick until candy falls out.
We've celebrated and revered many douchebags in the past and present. It's only natural we immortalize Jobs by celebrating his douchiness in the future.
