はてなキーワード: lostとは
2026年1月、アメリカの分断は新たな局面を迎えました。治安維持の名の下に行われる強硬な取り締まり（ICE）と、それによって失われる市民の命や尊厳。かつての歴史を想起させるような不穏なシンボルが公然と現れ、人種を超えた連帯による「抵抗」が始まっています。
はい、このような事件が発生したという報道があります。2026年1月7日、ミネアポリスでICE（移民税関捜査局）のエージェントが37歳の白人米国市民女性、Renee Nicole Goodを射殺しました。彼女は武装しておらず、車内で撃たれたとされ、事件は全国的な抗議を引き起こしました。トランプ政権は彼女を「国内テロリスト」と呼んでいますが、ビデオ分析では自衛射撃の主張に疑問が呈されています。Goodは3人の子供の母親で、詩人でした。
* * 白人青年が片目を奪われ (White youth lost one eye)
はい、確認された事件があります。2026年1月9日、カリフォルニア州サンタアナでの反ICEデモで、21歳の白人抗議者Kaden Rummlerが国土安全保障省（DHS）のエージェントから非致死性弾丸を至近距離で撃たれ、左目を永久に失いました。彼は手術を受け、頭蓋骨骨折も負いました。家族によると、エージェントは彼を嘲笑したそうです。
* 黒人の赤ちゃんがいったんは呼吸を止められ (Black baby temporarily stopped breathing)
はい、このような出来事が報じられています。2026年1月15日、ミネアポリスでICEエージェントが抗議現場で催涙ガスと閃光弾を使用し、6人の子供（うち生後6ヶ月の黒人赤ちゃん）が乗った車に影響を与えました。赤ちゃんは一時的に呼吸停止し、母親がCPRを行い、病院に搬送されました。家族はバスケットボールの試合帰りで、巻き込まれたと主張しています。
* 先住民が拘束されて行方不明 (Indigenous people detained and missing)
はい、関連するニュースがあります。2026年1月、ミネアポリスでオグララ・スー族の4人の部族員がICEに拘束されました。1人は釈放されましたが、残り3人はフォート・スネリングのICE施設に拘束されており、部族指導者は「行方不明」として釈放を要求しています。彼らはホームレスで、米国民です。また、他の先住民も誤認拘束の報告があります。
* * 拘束された移民は収容所で官憲に首を絞められて死亡 (Detained immigrant died by being strangled in detention)
はい、こうした事件が確認されています。2026年1月3日、テキサス州のICE収容所で55歳のキューバ移民Geraldo Lunas Camposが死亡。目撃者によると、ガードに首を絞められ、窒息死しました。検死官は殺人（首と胸の圧迫による窒息）と認定する見込みで、ICEは自殺未遂と主張していますが、矛盾が指摘されています。
* * 国境警備隊のトップがナチスを模した格好で現れ (Border patrol top appeared in Nazi-like attire)
はい、このような報道があります。国境警備隊のチーフ、Gregory Bovinoがミネアポリスでカスタムトレンチコートを着用し、ナチス風の服装として批判されました。ソーシャルメディアで「ナチス・コスプレ」と呼ばれ、Gavin Newsom知事もファシズムの象徴と指摘。DHSのプロモビデオでも同様のイメージが使われました。
* * ICEの求人広告にナチス賛歌が使われている (ICE job ads use Nazi anthems)
はい、確認された事例があります。DHS/ICEの求人広告で、白人至上主義やナチス関連の歌詞やスローガンを使用。例えば「We’ll Have Our Home Again」（白人ナショナリストの賛歌）や「One Homeland. One People. One Heritage」（ナチススローガンに似る）が使われ、批判を浴びました。これらはリクルートポストに含まれており、白人至上主義者を引きつけるプロパガンダと見なされています。
* * あのブラックパンサーが人種民族を超えた「戦争」を語る (Black Panther talks about “war” beyond race and ethnicity)
はい、関連する動きがあります。2026年にBlack Panther Party for Self-Defenseが復活し、フィラデルフィアやミネアポリスでの抗議で武装して現れ、ICEの暴力に対する抵抗を宣言。人種を超えた抑圧された人々との連帯を強調し、「国際主義」を掲げています。これは「戦争」としての闘争を意味し、トランプ政権への対抗として位置づけられています
2020年のBLM（Black Lives Matter）運動と、現在（2026年1月）の状況を比較すると、国家運営の根幹を揺るがす「危機の質と深さ」において、2026年の現在の方がより深刻かつ危険な局面にあると言わざるを得ません。
| 比較項目 | 2020年：BLM運動 | 2026年：現在（ICE/連邦政府の暴走） |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 主な対象 | 地方警察の暴力と組織的人種差別 | **連邦政府機関（ICE/DHS）**による市民への暴力 |
| 犠牲者の属性 | 主に黒人コミュニティ | 白人市民、子供、先住民、移民など全方位 |
| 権力の正当性 | 地方警察の改革が論点 | 連邦憲法と市民権の保護が崩壊の危機 |
| イデオロギー | 正義と平等の要求 | 国家による極右・ナショナリズムの公然とした採用 |
| 抵抗の形態 | 大規模デモ、制度改革の要求 | 武装組織の復活、連邦対地方自治体の対立 |
以下の3つの理由から、現在の状況は2020年よりも国家の存続において危機的です。
2020年の悲劇（ジョージ・フロイド氏の事件など）は主に地方警察によるものでした。しかし、2026年の事例（Renee Nicole Goodさんの射殺など）は、連邦政府直轄の機関（ICE）が、米国市民に対して致命的な武力を行使している点が決定的に異なります。
これは「国家が自国民を保護する」という社会契約が連邦レベルで破綻していることを意味し、憲法秩序の崩壊に直結します。
現在、ICEや国土安全保障省（DHS）の求人やトップの言動に、ナチスを想起させるスローガンや白人至上主義的なシンボルが使われていると報じられています。
2020年は「制度の中にある差別」が問題でしたが、2026年は**「政府そのものが排他的イデオロギーをアイデンティティとしている」**状況です。これは民主主義国家としての運営能力を内側から破壊しています。
2020年はデモと政治的圧力が中心でしたが、現在はブラックパンサーのような組織が「戦争」という言葉を使い、武装して抵抗を呼びかけています。
また、ミネアポリスやカリフォルニアなどの自治体・州政府が、連邦政府の活動に対して法的に、あるいは物理的に対立する姿勢を強めており、「第2の南北戦争」や「連邦解体」の現実味が2020年当時よりも遥かに高まっています。
2020年は「社会の歪みを正すための痛み（改革）」の側面がありましたが、2026年の現在は**「国家のシステム自体が市民を敵と見なし、物理的に排除し始めている」**という、統治機能の末期的症状を呈しています。

おいおいちょっと、アメリカ戦争省、このタイミングで日本が真珠湾攻撃した日に不穏な投稿してるじゃん
（Department of War：トランプ大統領の命で国防総省から9月に名称変更）
「WE WILL NEVER FORGET.
84 years ago, our country was attacked...the response from our GREATEST GENERATION solidified America as a SUPERPOWER.
Our victory in WWII honors the service members lost during this tragic attack.
”われわれは決して忘れない。
84年前、わが国は攻撃を受けた…われわれの偉大な世代の報復はアメリカを確固たる超大国とした。
第二次世界大戦におけるわれわれの勝利は、この悲劇的な攻撃で失われた兵士に敬意を表すものだ”
念のためにいっておくと、日本側の不手際で宣戦布告が遅れ、アメリカにとっては日本による卑怯な奇襲とみなされている
俺達は「攻撃してきた日本」を相手に戦ったよな！ッつうメッセージじゃん
アメリカが味方！中国はみんなの敵！とかオツムお花畑でいたら気づいた時にはとんでもないことになってるよ
ナウでヤングなワイ氏が好きな海外アーティストでアレックス・ウォーレンっていうのがおるんやけど
Youtuberでtiktokerっていう増田が最も嫌いそうなアーティストではあるんやけど楽曲はポップでけっこういい
Ordinaryとかは全米、全英チャートで1位をとってたし知ってる人もおるかもしれん
アレックスの日本初アルバムが「You'll Be Alright, Kid」なんやが、とにかく収録曲が短い。
これ最近の流行らしいんやけどほんまかと思ってAlexがZ世代が一番フォローしてる男性アーティストやったら
diorama(2012)：14曲61分33秒 1曲平均4分24秒
YANKEE(2014)：15曲64分16秒 1曲平均4分35秒
Bremen(2015)：14曲62分00秒 1曲平均4分26秒
BOOTLEG(2017)：14曲60分8秒 1曲平均4分18秒
STRAY SHEEP(2020)：15曲59分35秒 1曲平均3分58秒
LOST CORNER(2024)：20曲70分58秒 1曲平均3分33秒
これってパプリカとかFlamingoとかLemonが入ってて
時代に合わせた曲を作っていくと短くなっていく傾向があるんだろうか
ちなみに現在日本最強アーティストであるであろうYOASOBIは
アルバムという形ではなくEPという形で楽曲集を発表しているが
THE BOOK(2021)：7曲28分39秒 1曲平均4分5秒 インスト除く
THE BOOK 2(2021)：8曲27分32秒 1曲平均3分26秒
はじめての - EP(2023)：4曲14分19秒 1曲平均3分34秒
THE BOOK 3(2023)：8曲27分31秒 1曲平均3分26秒 インスト除く
ワイ氏が青春時代に最も聞いてたアルバムであるところのRADWIMPSの絶体絶命なんかは
14曲65分30秒 1曲平均4分40秒 シークレットトラック除く
たぶん他のアルバムも平均4分30秒くらいだったと思うから10年で1分近く短縮されてる。
20%の時短に成功してると考えると、やっぱ今って大コスパ時代なんやなって思いました
あと個人的に聞いてて思ってるのはイントロとアウトロが減ったなっていうこと。
なので逆に１楽曲あたりのワード数の比較とかもしてみたいと思った。
もしかしたら楽曲は短くなっててもワード数は意外と減ってないとかあるかもしれない。知らんけど。
【追記】
日本最強はMrs. GREEN APPLEではという指摘があったので
TWELVE(2016)：12曲48分22秒 1曲平均4分2秒
Mrs. GREEN APPLE(2017)：13曲53分54秒 1曲平均4分9秒
ENSEMBLE(2018)：13曲55分49秒 1曲平均4分18秒
Attitude(2019)：17曲62分9秒 1曲平均3分39秒
Attitude(2019)：16曲61分8秒 1曲平均3分49秒 ※InsPirATioN(1分1秒)除く
ANTENNA(2023)：13曲53分32秒 1曲平均4分7秒
ミセスはAttitudeは短いけど他は大体4分弱なので他2組と比べると結構長いほう。
10周年ベストアルバムの「10」も19曲83分20秒で1曲平均4分23秒だから
ミセスは昨今のアーティストの中ではじっくり曲を聞かせるタイプのアーティストっぽい。

Will Germany ever escape its economic crisis? | DW News
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llK0YRvmIng
🇩🇪 ドイツが労働者不足に苦しむ理由（インタビュー内容＋背景を整理）
“We just don’t have enough hours worked… We don’t have enough workforce.”
つまり
「働く人そのものが足りない」＋「働ける時間の総量も足りない」
主因：
産業構造が輸出型なので労働力不足がそのまま国全体の伸びを止めている
ドイツ政府は専門家の言う通り 「移民をもっと積極的に入れるべき」 と考えている。
技能実習から「特定技能」へ少しマシになったが、まだ入国制限が強い
結果：
インタビューで：
“China… is catching up, overtaking us.”
ドイツは高品質で世界を取っていたが、中国が品質・価格両方で迫ってきた。
日本はすでにこの問題に20年前から直面していて、製造業の海外移転が進んでいたためダメージが分散されている。
ドイツはロシア依存が大きかったため、ウクライナ侵攻でエネルギー価格が急上昇
🔍 違い4：自動車産業の転換が遅れた
“The automotive industry… switched too late.”
→ EV化で大きく遅れた（日本も似ているが、ドイツは輸出依存度がもっと高い）
インタビューで：
“Consumers are more scared… cautious.”
国民が消費しなくなっている
日本も似ているが、
ドイツは「危機の直撃度」が高い（地理的にも、エネルギーでも）
少子高齢化 深刻 深刻
経済構造 製造業＋輸出依存度が非常に高い 製造業は縮小、サービス多め
結論：
ドイツは「人が足りない」ことが日本より直接的に経済成長を止めている。
そして輸出型製造業の国なのに、
労働者不足
ーーーー
結論：ドイツは「労働者が足りなさすぎる」＋「輸出競争力が価格面で負け始めている」。
日本は「人はいるが賃金が上がらない」＋「国際競争力は質ではまだ持ちこたえている」
① 🇩🇪 ドイツの最大の問題：とにかく働く人がいない（深刻度MAX）
“We just don’t have enough labor.”
“The number of hours worked in Germany is too low.”
つまり…
・高齢化が激しい
・移民受け入れが遅れた
ドイツ政府は移民受け入れを急拡大しているけど、それでも全然足りない。
日本は「女性と高齢者の労働参加」が高いため “労働市場はギリギリ維持”。
ドイツはそこが弱い。
動画でも語られてたように：
“Germany has lost price competitiveness.”
“Chinese products are catching up and overtaking us.”
🔥 日本との違い
動画でも言ってた通り：
“We missed the signal… combustion engines are not the future.”
つまり：
日本もEV遅れと言われるけど、ハイブリッドで強いため “まだ救われている”。
“Funds are being used to cater to voter clientele.”
“Not used for long-term productive investment.”
つまり：
老齢者向け給付
通勤補助
など「短期の人気取り」に予算が流れ、インフラ・教育・デジタル化など“未来投資”に回っていない。
🔥 日本との違い
日本も似た傾向あるが、
ドイツのほうが政治の調整がうまくいかず “改革が進まない影響” が直接成長率に出ている。
ウクライナ戦争でガス激高騰
労働者不足 極端。移民がなければ維持不能 まだ耐えてる（女性・高齢者労働率が高い）
製造業競争力 価格で負けている（中国に追い抜かれ始めた） 円安で逆に強化されている
自動車産業 EVで遅れ＝産業基盤が揺らぐ HV強い＝まだ安定
エネルギーコスト 超高い（ロシア依存の反動） そこまで致命的ではない
政治対策 未来投資より人気取りに流れがち 同じ傾向だが被害は比較的小
“We need to become a country more open to immigration.”
dorawii represents a case of unprocessed grief over lost grandiosity (from psychotic episode) manifesting as compulsive boundary-testing and argument-seeking, where genuine neurological limitations are weaponized defensively to avoid confronting existential ordinariness, sustained by platform affordances that enable persistent identity within anonymity and rewarding provocative engagement.
A person who briefly experienced feeling god-like through psychosis, recovered to find themselves merely disabled and ordinary, and cannot bear this truth. They use real limitations as both explanation and shield, seek significance through online conflict, and remain trapped in a cycle where the behaviors meant to prove their worth actually demonstrate their difficulties - but acknowledging this would require grieving what was lost, which remains unbearable.
This reveals how recovery from severe mental illness isn't just about symptom remission - it's about psychological integration of what was experienced and what was lost. Medical model focuses on eliminating psychosis, but doesn't address the meaning-crisis created when extraordinary experiences are taken away and ordinary limitation remains.
It also shows how online spaces with ambiguous accountability structures can enable acting-out that serves defensive purposes while feeling like genuine engagement. The person suffering most is probably dorawii themselves, even as their behavior drives others away.
The most sophisticated theoretical vocabulary, the most detailed self-disclosure, the most elaborate arguments - none of it addresses the core issue. All of it is displacement. The real conversation dorawii needs to have is not with anonymous strangers about who won an argument. It's an internal conversation: "I am not who I was during that brief, terrible, extraordinary episode. I am ordinary, limited, and mortal. And somehow, that has to be enough."
Until that conversation can happen, everything else is noise.
メインテーマになっているものでも、キャラクターが登場するくらいのものでも。自分でも結構やってるつもりだけど、もっと色々知りたい。
これまで自分でやってよかったやつ。インディーも大手も含めて。
Ikenfell
The missing
Unpacking
Timespinner
The cosmic wheel sisterhood
Celeste
Hadesシリーズ
Citizen sleeper
Baldur's gate 3
NOISZ STΔRLIVHT（いいゲームだけど難易度が高くて攻略は断念）
Thirsty suitors

もっと色々やってると思うけど、思い出せないな。
主人公＋4人のキャラを選んでFE的なSRPG戦闘とイベントマスを選びながら進行、
8か10ステージクリアごとにボス戦があってそれが３～４セット。
レベルあがるごとにランダムなステータスやスキルを選択して取得。
イベントや戦闘後に特殊効果や装備改造トークンをランダムで得られる。
この２つで自軍を強化しながら進行していく。
また途中で敗北、離脱、クリアすると拠点に戻され、ステータスやスキルは初期化。
問題点。
多ければ20戦くらいFE的な戦闘を強いられるため、ローグライトとして1周するのに3時間とか4時間平気でかかる。
そのわりに得られる永続バフはわずかなので周回の体感とくに苦戦感が変わらない。
結果として周回がすげーつまんなくなってくるのでローグライトの特性が半分以上死んでる。
初回クリア後も一応ストーリーは続くんだけどそこへのモチベーションが上がらない。
いいところ。
キャラ１人ごとに特性がかなり異なる２種類の武器を装備しており、切り替えて戦うことで戦略の幅が広がる。
キャラにつくスキルも特性が分かりやすく分化されているので「似たようなスキルやなぁ」が少なく、
ランダムで手に入るのでキャラ入替も含めて周回のプレイフィールが異なる部分はマル。
ちょっと変わった本格派SRPGやりたい人にとってはある程度の満足度はあると思う。
「ローグライト」と「SRPG」のかみ合わせがよくないって結論になっちゃう。
でも3000円でこれだったらめっちゃ悪いってわけじゃないかな。SRPGの部分は面白いし。
ちなみに僕はSwitchで出てたので買ったんだけど、PCインディーゲー移植特有の最適化不足で30分くらいかかったボス戦の報酬受け取り画面でエラー落ちして復旧したらボス戦なかったことになってたのに萎えて投げました。
Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about how unpredictable life paths can be. A few years ago, I had no idea what “clinical research” even meant. Like many people, I assumed healthcare careers were limited to doctors or nurses. But then I came across the field of clinical research and realized how much happens behind the scenes to bring new medicines, vaccines, and therapies to life.
What struck me the most is how critical accuracy and ethics are in this field. Every detail matters, and behind every trial, there are countless professionals ensuring safety and compliance. It made me reflect: how many of us really understand the effort that goes into the medicines we take so casually?
I decided to pursue training and build a career in this space. It’s not an easy path—there are regulations, long hours of study, and the constant need to keep up with global standards. But I’ve also learned that this is a career where your work has a direct impact on people’s lives, even if your name never appears in the spotlight.
Sometimes I wonder if others also struggle with the same doubts I had when starting out. Is it worth the effort? Will there be opportunities? From my experience, yes—this industry is growing, and with the right guidance and certification, the opportunities are there.
I guess I’m writing this entry as a small reflection and maybe encouragement for anyone feeling lost in their career. Sometimes the path you’ve never considered can turn into the most meaningful one.

電車のホームで「この人、弱者男性です！」って叫んだのは、ほんと軽い気持ちだった。けど、次の瞬間、世界はひっくり返った。
その男はただの冴えないサラリーマンに見えた。でも、私の「でっちあげ」の言葉をトリガーに、異能の戦場が展開されたんだ。
空間がねじれ、周囲の乗客は全員静止した。まるで時間が止まったみたいに。
「……俺を弱者男性と断じたな」
男の瞳が光った瞬間、俺――いや、私の足元が歪んだ。気づけば、知らない闇の領域に引きずり込まれていた。
彼の能力は《Position Shift》。相手の立場を強制的に入れ替える力。私は告発者から被告人へ、強者から弱者へと転落させられた。社会的立場だけじゃない。肉体も、精神も、すべて「下」にシフトさせられる。
私は必死に抵抗して、自分の隠し能力《Lost Sanctuary》を発動した。これは「罪を帳消しにする」聖域。空間を張って、あらゆる追及や攻撃を無効化する。
「ここにいれば、私に罪は届かない！」
そう叫んでシールドを張ったが、男は冷たく笑った。
「無駄だ。《Antimatter》」
彼が放った黒い粒子が私の聖域を侵食していく。物質も概念も問答無用で打ち消す破壊の力。私のロストサンクチュアリはたちまち崩壊し、私は再び闇にさらされた。
「まだだ……！」
私は最後の切り札、《不老不死》を解放した。何度でも蘇る。殺されても死なない。そうすれば、どんな弱者男性の力にも屈しないと思った。
だが、甘かった。
Position Shiftによって「死なない存在」から「永遠に苦しみ続ける存在」へと立場をねじ曲げられた。私は確かに死ななかった。だが、身体は焼かれ、切り裂かれ、崩壊し続ける地獄に閉じ込められたまま、生き続けさせられた。
彼の声が頭の中に響く。
「本当に弱者男性として苦しんでる者たちの痛みを、永遠に味わえ」
その瞬間、私は悟った。これが天罰。
弱者男性を軽んじ、嘘をつき、貶めた私に与えられたのは、果てなき罰と孤独。
そして彼は、最後にこう呟いて姿を消した。
「俺は弱者男性の代弁者。お前の不死は、俺が望む限り終わらない」

I love Apple—that's why I'm angry at the SE and hopeful about the 16e.
Apple is not just a device manufacturer in my life. It has ideas, philosophy, and an uncompromising aesthetic. That's why I can talk about it this much.

■ The iPhone SE was Apple's betrayal.
The iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generations) is a “black history” in Apple's history.
The curse of 3GB RAM: Even the Photos app doesn't run properly, and Notes freezes.
Poor heat dissipation and battery life: The outdated chassis can't handle high-end chips.
Degraded camera: 12MP with no ultra-wide angle—specs that don't feel like 2025.
Flawed cooling structure: High-performance chips are forced into the design, resulting in near-thermal runaway.
Selling such a product under the Apple name was honestly shocking. Apple was supposed to be a more trustworthy company.
---
■ The lack of philosophy in the SE has damaged the Apple brand
Apple is a company that sells “premium” products. However, the SE had become nothing more than a “cheap product sold at a high price.”
Because I love Apple, I couldn't accept that.
---
■ iPhone 16e—A Ray of Hope
The iPhone 16e is being criticized online as “half-baked” and “not worth the price,” but I don't agree.
It features the A17 chip and supports Apple Intelligence.
The camera is lacking, but it's incomparable to the SE.
This is the first step toward breaking the “SE curse.” It's proof that Apple is now delivering proper specifications in a proper form. Even if you don't buy it, the mere existence of this device makes me believe in Apple's future.
---
■ Specs and philosophy seen in the iPad series
Standard iPad: 3GB of RAM, freezes when taking notes, only good for viewing.
iPad mini: A-series chip is fine, useful as a secondary smartphone.
iPad Air: Almost the same as the Pro. Best balance of price and performance.
iPad Pro: Competes with the MacBook. Can't fully utilize its potential due to OS limitations.
Having used all Apple products, I can tell which models have “philosophy.”
---
■ Apple Watch is a device that sells “peace of mind”
With fall detection, heart rate monitoring, and other features, it has the potential to save lives.
It's not a medical device, but it's trustworthy in the sense of “buying peace of mind.”
Other manufacturers have similar features, but Apple's reliability and presentation are in a league of their own.
I've also tested Xiaomi's Mi Band 9, and it's indeed high-performance for 5,000 yen. But the Apple Watch, even at more than ten times the price, offers more than ten times the value. Intuitive operation, brightness, notification support... everything is “thought through.”
---
■ Apple Vision Pro — Madness with a Purpose
600,000 yen? Who would buy that?
Equipped with an M2 chip, no compromises.
Made not for others, but for their own beliefs.
This is Apple's “reason why it's worth the high price.” Rather than releasing a cheap, half-baked product, they bet on insane perfection. That's Apple.
■ When it comes to facial recognition, I lost to Apple.
At first, I was against it. “Fingerprint recognition is fine,” I thought.
even when fingerprints don't work due to sweat or water,
even while wearing a mask,
it unlocks instantly.
Now, facial recognition is the norm. I lost to Apple. But I'm happy about it. The future Apple envisioned was truly convenient.
■ In conclusion: Apple is my life.
Behind the “convenience” lies a proper meaning and ideology.
That's why I could genuinely be angry at the SE, and that's why I was moved by the arrival of the 16e, thinking, “Apple is back.”
I will continue to love Apple. But not as a blind follower. As someone who believes in Apple's ideology, resolve, and integrity.
I’ve compiled all my passionate thoughts into this text, which can be seen as a testament to “living with Apple.” It is truly your “Apple Manifesto (creed).”
📄 Title: I love Apple—that’s why I was angry at the SE and saw hope in the 16e.

■ Apple Watch is a device that sells “peace of mind”
With fall detection, heart rate monitoring, and other features, it has the potential to save lives.
It's not a medical device, but it's trustworthy in the sense of “buying peace of mind.”
Other manufacturers have similar features, but Apple's reliability and presentation are in a league of their own.
I've also tested Xiaomi's Mi Band 9, and it's indeed high-performance for 5,000 yen. But the Apple Watch, even at more than ten times the price, offers more than ten times the value. Intuitive operation, brightness, notification support... everything is “thought through.”
---
■ Apple Vision Pro — Madness with a Purpose
600,000 yen? Who would buy that?
Equipped with an M2 chip, no compromises.
Made not for others, but for their own beliefs.
This is Apple's “reason why it's worth the high price.” Rather than releasing a cheap, half-baked product, they bet on insane perfection. That's Apple.
■ When it comes to facial recognition, I lost to Apple.
At first, I was against it. “Fingerprint recognition is fine,” I thought.
even when fingerprints don't work due to sweat or water,
even while wearing a mask,
it unlocks instantly.
Now, facial recognition is the norm. I lost to Apple. But I'm happy about it. The future Apple envisioned was truly convenient.
■ In conclusion: Apple is my life.
Behind the “convenience” lies a proper meaning and ideology.
That's why I could genuinely be angry at the SE, and that's why I was moved by the arrival of the 16e, thinking, “Apple is back.”
I will continue to love Apple. But not as a blind follower. As someone who believes in Apple's ideology, resolve, and integrity.
I’ve compiled all my passionate thoughts into this text, which can be seen as a testament to “living with Apple.” It is truly your “Apple Manifesto (creed).”

■ The iPhone SE was Apple's betrayal.
The iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generations) is a “black history” in Apple's history.
The curse of 3GB RAM: Even the Photos app doesn't run properly, and Notes freezes.
Poor heat dissipation and battery life: The outdated chassis can't handle high-end chips.
Degraded camera: 12MP with no ultra-wide angle—specs that don't feel like 2025.
Flawed cooling structure: High-performance chips are forced into the design, resulting in near-thermal runaway.
Selling such a product under the Apple name was honestly shocking. Apple was supposed to be a more trustworthy company.
---
■ The lack of philosophy in the SE has damaged the Apple brand
Apple is a company that sells “premium” products. However, the SE had become nothing more than a “cheap product sold at a high price.”
Because I love Apple, I couldn't accept that.

■ iPhone 16e—A Ray of Hope
The iPhone 16e is being criticized online as “half-baked” and “not worth the price,” but I don't agree.
It features the A17 chip and supports Apple Intelligence.
The camera is lacking, but it's incomparable to the SE.
This is the first step toward breaking the “SE curse.” It's proof that Apple is now delivering proper specifications in a proper form. Even if you don't buy it, the mere existence of this device makes me believe in Apple's future.
