Apple is at the first major cross-roads since the passing of its late co-founder Steve Jobs 12 years ago. It finds itself still largely dependent on the product lines and businesses that Jobs left behind. Its Vision Pro has received mixed reviews on launch, while it is also facing several other headwinds including a major lawsuit against what the DOJ claims are its anticompetitive practices.

    A diet in which he thought would magically avoid creating body odor.

    Those of us who have this problem know that your diet really does affect that. Actually others can sometimes say what we’ve eaten a few hours before.

    However, Jobs’ case is kinda extreme, usually eating less sugar and fat and more carbs is kinda sufficient.

      Jobs actually believed he didn’t need to take baths though, it was more extreme than just reducing his smell, he legitimately believed he didn’t smell at all.

        Well, there’s such thing as nose blindness. If you stink always the same, you don’t feel your own smell. Which is why asocial people become smelly very easily.

        Jobs was clearly narcissist, though, so he’d just be in denial anyway.
