A photo of a man having coffee at an outdoor cafe in Cairo has gone viral after conspiracy theorists claim it shows the late Apple founder Steve Jobs alive and still. The photo, taken in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has sparked conspiracy theories that Steve Jobs faked his own death to lead a simple life in Egypt. The real Steve Jobs is dead, and when it was announced that he would be stepping down, analysts worried that the man in the photo, barefoot and presumably Egyptian, does indeed look an awful lot like Mr. Jobs. However, the real Steve Jobs is dead. He died from pancreatic cancer in 2011.
The main conspiracy theory is that Jobs conspired against himself by delaying seeking proper medical care and then (sometimes) trying to manage his illness. The photo has caused controversy on Reddit, with some users believing it is a Tupac-style comeback. The author, whose biography of Steve Jobs was an instant best seller after the Apple CEO’s death in October 2011, sets out to correct this misconception.
Steve Paul Jobs was an American businessman, inventor, and investor best known for co-founding the technology company Apple. His death in 2011 led to speculation about his last words on his deathbed. The photo has sparked controversy among conspiracy theorists, who believe that Steve Jobs is alive and hiding in Egypt.

I think the biggest secret of Jobs was during an interview – he was asked how lucky his children were that they had Jobs as a father and how great it must be for them to have all these iPads, iPods, etc. Jobs said “They don’t have any of these things.” When asked why, Jobs replied “Because I know what they do to people.”
The secret is him correcting himself saying:”This was in the early 90’s”(0:55). He then said the early 2000. That glass touch display was already in the making in the early 90’s. These corporations have developed technology further then we know. They are 30 somwhat years ahead of us. They want to keep making money, so they drop it piece by piece and stretch it as long as they can go. Think about that.
Based on the comments, it would seem that any level-headed discussion about Apple’s products in the comments section of a YouTube article is impossible. “FUK APPLE” “FUK ANDROID” How about this: Whatever floats your boat floats your boat? I myself am more partial to Apple due to personal reasons, but even I can see the raving lunacy in some people when Apple is mentioned, either for or against. Can’t we just all get along? Think about it: iOS is, for the most part, about ease of use and design. Android is about openness and modular design. One is tied into the hardware, the other has tons of hardware variations running it. People will find what works for them, and if they like it, they like it, end of story. If someone likes Android more, I’m not gonna start hating on them.
Seems to me no one understands his words. I don’t think he wanted to let people know this. But knowing he will die, I am sure he said, “what the hell.” He had a project set LOOOOONG ago and no one knew about he. He is proving that he still had ideas although unobtainable, was still in the works. The secret was the way he built devices. He was always thinking about the next big thing. The best way to be a competitor. Apple is literally the only company that stays to their roots and will never release garbage. They make sure their shit works. What an awesome man he way in the tech field.
Also U all forget Steve Jobs was a businessman first. He is an entrepreneur who wanted to make something out of his life. Money comes first naturally. So ofcourse like many businesses do, he steals ideas of other companies. It’s business. Not saying its ethically responsible but that’s how it works. The reason why people are admiring Jobs is because he had a certain vision about technology and Apple product. And people liked that vision. Every company has a certain company mission or policy and Jobs always said that the users were his first priority. Technology should follow the user’s needs. That’s why the iphones and ipads and it’s user interfaces are so “limited” and compact because it’s easier for people to handle. No extra programming options, no jibber jabber, just simplicity. Unlike android. Thats why some people including most programmers and computer nerds prefer using android. That’s Apples philosophy brought to u by Jobs. U can hate all u want but the guy and Apple accomplished something. Thats is producing amazing products filled with technology. But in the end no matter how u twist or turn it, he was always a businessman first wanting to make money. Now go buy a 700 dollar phone every year and make Jobs proud
I still think the keyboard idea he had is a great idea. The only problem, just like with phones and tablets with touch screens, is the lax of physical feedback. If you’re someone like me who can touch-type very quickly, what is the incentive for me to switch to a device like that? They need to invent some kind of screen that can physically manipulate. Push out a little in the sections where the UI has buttons or something so I can feel the keys, but certainly a customisable keyboard, just like apps with unique UI on tablet and phone is a very interesting idea.
It was his ideas and concepts that revolutionized the mp3 player market, the cell phone market, and made the dying mac desirable to customers once again. Jobs was the source of all these innovations, not the programmers and engineers who worked for him, they just did what he told them to. Anyone can do what they are told to, but far from everyone can be the kind of driving force of innovation that Jobs was.
Retail stores were his idea, and he might’ve designed the interior. As the Apple’s CEO, he definitely was a huge part of the overall corporate strategy of Apple, and he decided what and when products should be made. His idea was to have a computer that people ‘could type on’. That’s a vague description of an idea that’s been around for decades. It’s his engineers that came up with concepts like inertial scrolling, or the layout for iOS. Engineers took Jobs’ demand and created their own ideas.
Sam Walton, the founder of Walmart, was a great businessman who revolutionized the retail industry. What he did is historic. Steve Jobs also revolutionized an industry…….SEVEN times. . Jobs had no playbook to go off of when envisioning new products, he created the playbook. He wasn’t just a good businessman, he envisioned the tools that would transform society over and over again. The biographer of Albert Einstein and Steve Jobs agrees, Jobs was indeed a genius.
So I’m not trying to belittle Steve Jobs, I think he was obviously extremely good at what he did and very very smart. However, for him to say that he came up with the idea for the virtual touchscreen keyboard is just not true. I’m not sure why he had a habit of making false claims, but even though I’m not a fan of Apple products I still think he was a good man from the little I know of him.
Do people not understand? Jobs may have not been a genius, but he is a brilliant salesman. He made the simplest things, seem unfathomable at the time he released new products. Swiping up and down, who knew that could be so exciting? Yet Jobs delivered, he delivered the announcements hyping up Apple’s new products and selling them to millions of people around the world. No, maybe he’s not a genius in the technology industry, but he sure is a brilliant and significant figure in modern business.
Steven Paul Jobs (San Francisco, 24 de febrero de 1955-Palo Alto, 05 de octubre de 2011) fue un empresario, diseñador industrial, magnate empresarial, propietario de medios e inversor estadounidense. Fue cofundador y presidente ejecutivo de Apple y máximo accionista individual de The Walt Disney Company. 69 AÑOS 56 AÑOS 13 AÑOS.
When i worked for Apple back in the early 90s. In Silicon Valley we where building Macintosh and Macintosh SE’s. Steve Jobs got the whole assembly warehouse together for a meeting he dicussed multiple things but i specifically remember that he said we are in the process of creating and developing a huge change in the future we are going to make computers as small as a pack of cigarettes. Apple was the best PLACE to work at for me back then. Offered 401k, life insurance, great health insurance, dentle and vision. Covered on the day your hired and apply. Not wait 3 months. Profit sharring which at times was about $1500.00 a month. Partys all the time. Exspensive luncheons at meetings. Paid time off, sick leave, christmas bonuses even with profit shareing. Apple for me was a life saver for a single mom recently divorced 3 kids and scared in the world of what i was gonna do. Worked their 5 years and moved.
Ok,… Here is a sad story, which tells you the genius is more of a matter of luck…. And the barbaric nature of our economic reality… To put a long story short… TDK, a Taiwanese company, first developed the multi-touch technology, envisioned a product like iPhone, and approached Nokia, proposed this idea, and expected a pay day to recover all previous expenses of research. Surprisingly, Nokia stubbornly rejected. After 2 years and 3 tries, TDK was desperate. Then Apple showed up, happily grabbed the good luck….
Had Steve Jobs never pursued technology and computer development, the world today probably wouldn’t have hundreds of millions of device-addicted, braindead spectres walking around staring at their phones. If you ask me, in many ways he helped bring on the curse of technology through saturation marketing in the 90’s and 2000’s, eventually creating the dependency of far too many on their devices to function day-to-day. Usually, it’s better not to create something that ushers in an era of arrogance, ignorance, and all-knowing behaviorism, but not in his eyes. Only in death did he realize what he sacrificed…a life for the pursuit of wealth. I consider his story a tragedy more than a success story. The saddest part of it all is, he pushed that technology on the world as a solution to its problems, but the social ills that have spawned an entire generation of disaffected youth, spoiled by the very technology they embrace like a life-source, will be its inevitable downfall. While I value tech for its practical science virtues, I see the inherent flaws that it has cast upon the globe: a dependency for electronic devices to survive. The flip side of that coin is…now we no longer have a choice to turn back…it’s too late. The world is grossly overpopulated, and without the tech we’ve grown to rely on, we simply would not survive as a species, and that’s truly pathetic. To go from self preservation to slavery in 3 decades….slaves to technology. Yeah thanks Steve…I regrettably (and honestly)saw this coming 22 years ago when I was studying Electronic Engineering Technology.
In The Name Of GOD Nothing valuable On The Earth than creating new idea when you hear it, your immediate response is (( impossible )) but afterworth when you see it implemented your reaction is (( GREAT )) but the funny is the GAP between (( impossible )) and (( GREAT )) is that YOU are called as a Crazy and Mad. hahahahahahahahahah
So they planned on making a massively overpriced tablet PC, for business users. They realised the competition was too fierce, so they created a massively neutered tablet PC in a phone form factor, which competed with ‘smartphones’ ; so it was objectively better than the competition, and ended up being a massive hit. Then it started the trend of touchscreen smartphones for the masses, which became huge and more important than PCs.
He is (…was) a leader. He inspired those who had a gift to see their own full potential and bring it to life. He gained from his ability to motivate others and network thoughts and ideas together. Steve Jobs was a man just like you and I, but a great man indeed. The world owes him nothing but gratitude, in my opinion.
All these people dissing on Steve because of the bill Burr jokes. If you think without Steve jobs you’d be holding that miracle in you hands.. you’re mistaken. Case in point.. Steve is gone, tech has come a long way, there are probably better engineers at Apple.. and look at the shit they come up with.. no headphone jack, earpods..
So many people blaming Steve jobs for our own decisions. Do we blame The earth for its cliff when we all decide to walk off of it? We have a sheep mentality; we go where the cool kids go. We do what’s trending. Besides that, we should probably blame the fast paced society we live in, causing us to be too busy or too self consumed to care what our kids are doing. Maybe it’s just ignorance. This isn’t a hateful comment. I’m just pointing out blaming Steve jobs will not fix our problems.
Jobs as in the book of job…This guy was competition to a certain evil demon of commerce Job believed in meditation and he believed in a creator then suddenly because Saturn was unhappy he couldn’t sway a good, he cursed the good with a cancer. Cancer is a man maid illness. I wish I’d have know when my mom was living. She was diagnosed on her 50 birthday and died 6 weeks later a year turned to 6 months turned to 3 turned to any day now. 18 years ago I sobbed, because I was a horrible daughter I cried in her lap I’m sorry I don’t want you to die And she gently patted my shoulders and said it’s OK I knew this day would come as her mother also had the same cancer with brain tumors my mom went blind 2 days before her death her tumors exploded destroying optics. My mother was a brave woman caught up in this world of material slavery but she figured it all out before her death. In the Bible Christ says no one enters heaven with riches or clothes no one enters the father house which is the entire universe with material things flesh money or memories of the evil. Blessed are we all who seek as Christ said the Lord within ourselves you won’t find God at a church or a synogue of Satan rather the temple is you you body is the cross you bear it from your birth cursed are we at out birth by the demons of commerce your berth cert is the beginning For creator gave you the entire universe and earth all its free water and free foods an land all stolen from you at your birth you inheritance from God was stolen You pay for utilities you already own you pay to drink their poisoned waters and you pay to live on your land to eat poisoned foods.
I worked as a server at Apple’s campus in Cupertino and I asked a guy, “Did you ever meet Steve Jobs?” And he said, ” Yes.” “Did you talk to him?” “Oh no! I’ve seen him around though.” My impression was that he was the man and yet I still wonder why people were forbidden to approach him for conversation.
The idea for tablets (at least in theory) shows up in original star trek episodes in the 70’s. That’s probably where he got the idea. Plus it was VERY present later in the 80’s in Star Trek: The Next Generation episodes. Granted those were fake movie props, but the inspiration for a keyboard-less tablet thing has been around a very long time. It was probably in sci fi somewhere even before original star trek, if it was I’m too young to have seen those movies / shows.
Jobs and Gates did not invent anything both of them just paid off unknowing smart young developers. Having spent 17 years in the army, have to acknowledge the military has been the key developer for communication. Any Infantry guy knows we had what we call Pluggers way before Ipads or I phones. The MCS light program was in development and implemented in the early 2000’s. The JSTAR tac sat system has been around for at least two decades. Jobs and Gates are just patent thieves. Apple employs child slave workers in China to build the Iphones who if they get chance climb to rooftops of buildings jump off and kill themselves. Yea Great guy.
All your life is about money, cars, houses, but you don’t want to know who created you and where are you going after death, listen to your Lord in Holy Quran : “But whoever turns away from My Reminder will certainly have a miserable life,1 then We will raise them up blind on the Day of Judgment. They will cry, “My Lord! Why have you raised me up blind, although I used to see?. Allah will respond, “It is so, just as Our revelations came to you and you neglected them, so Today you are neglected. This is how We reward whoever transgresses and does not believe in the revelations of their Lord. And the punishment of the Hereafter is far more severe and more lasting”. (20:124 Holy Quran
I once heard a story about how Steve Jobs was in Sri Lanka in the early 90s with his wife apparently on their honeymoon. While here he had met up with Arthur C Clarke and shown him a prototype of a device that would later become the iPad. If this is true it explains why Jobs said 90s first and then reverted.
It’s really sad, but he’s simply lying. In the early 2000 and many years before the first iPhone came out, I was using smartphones created by a Taiwanese company HTC and sold under mobile operators’ brandnames, like Orange, Vodafone, T-Mobile etc. It is HTC who is to be credited for the creation of a smartphone, not Apple, as Jobs is suggesting. He simply took the idea and made it better. It’s embarassing.
Anyone thinking about getting some random rfid chip to be a phone on your ✋. That’s the mark of the beast. You just heard him tell you they have been playing with this since 2000, and maybe in the 1990’s. Who knows, I bet they had some funky stuff still cooking from the 60’s. I’m so happy with a burner ☎ lol 110 bucks lg shit phone ftw.
Some are saying other companies like Microsoft came up with the multi-touch surface/tablet idea and some are saying Apple. Nope. None of these companies came up with the “idea” of this technology. These technologies came from Sci-fi books/tv series like Star Trek. That’s where Bill Gates/Steve Jobs took their “idea” from.
“The iPhone ruins the quality of life with the power of convenience.” It’s called will power, have the drive to do what you want to do. With all of these “zombies on their phones,” doesn’t that mean less competition for you? Y’all are soft. He was one of the greatest inventors of our time, and yet people still take him for granted lmao
He was also a Beatles fan…. gave his adoptive parents all the glory, esp. his father… read it folks…read it… he was of muslim extract, given up for adoption (yet his biological parents got married & had more children)… what a story… what a man! My perspective changed totally about the man the press gave horrible coverage…ok he ddnt suffer fools… obnoxious to an extent but brilliant mind… quality was his whole goal, money wld folliw because of the xlnt products produced…put all big greedy corporations in their box! Oh to hve been a fly on the wall in those meetings… resurrection hope is a gr8 hope…R.I.P. u lovely peep…
According to the documentary, his guy came up with a mp3 player touch screen, he said, yes that’s pretty cool, however if we make this now, some other company will come out and make it a phone and a pad. Hint: more money, let’s come out with a little mp3 phone, sell millions of that, after we make a huge profit, we will have the touch screen monopolized and right before the 2 year or so, then we’ll come out with the iPad and have that monopolized…….. Think people, that’s how he made his billion’s, but let’s not forget, bill Gates saved his ass when he ran out of money and had to bring him in and bill Gates got shares to iphone’s and Mac…. These guys come in hire intelligent people, tell them their idea, the come up with proto call’s, and get almost zero credit and a good paying job, unless they bought shares to the company… It’s all common sense. Pretty soon we will see another company and it will be the same but not Apple or Android, “Google play. I think it’s 5 years monopolized. Remember alantic electric and Comcast got sued, because the bell Atlantic and the electric company couldn’t use the telephone tower’s. It was around 1998 something like that…
Watching this on iPhone XS. Remember when it hit the market, the original. Only fancy people had one. Then we plebs started to afford them. My first phone was iPhone 4, which I got as a gift on my 12th birthday. Ever since then had one. Good phones, albeit a bit annoying at times. Don’t like the iterations since X, there is so little progression. Why did they go back to the iPhone 4 shell? Odd. Old is new new.
God is the word! Every finger licking word you use to express energy and emotion or in effort to bring to the conscious mind a vision. Once man was def and mute, The Word of God (the word) first books/dictionaries ever worshiped lead to all possibilities. With out the Word Of God none of the miracles around you would be possible. Do you speak God? Where two or more are gathered I am in there presence. Word god/goddess. Word is power of all heaven and hell. The Word is God. Believe it! Jesus will return not in the flesh but in the truth of Gods word. Only good words lead to good, you cannot serve the spirit and the flesh. Jesus could not have been crucified without the word. Father is the word, the son is the body (flesh) and the Holy Ghost is spirit. sit next to a loose tarantula and tell me you don’t shiver in the flesh. That is the spirit, the Holy Ghost directs you subconsciously. Now look at Jesus on the cross and what the word did to him. Fear the word and fear GOD. Words shape our world and everything around and within us including our imagination. Without the word there would not be GOD. He does not discriminate. like the very first word you learned as a child. (Mine was juice)i was a little god with the word…..
O People, if you should be in doubt about the Resurrection, then (consider that) indeed, We created you from dust, then from a sperm-drop, then from a clinging clot, and then from a lump of flesh, formed and unformed – that We may show you. And We settle in the wombs whom We will for a specified term, then We bring you out as a child, and then (We develop you) that you may reach your (time of) maturity. And among you is he who is taken in (early) death, and among you is he who is returned to the most decrepit (old) age so that he knows, after (once having) knowledge, nothing. And you see the earth barren, but when We send down upon it rain, it quivers and swells and grows (something) of every beautiful kind.That is because Allah is the Truth and because He gives life to the dead and because He is over all things competent
Great heartfelt art that stucks comes from not so great loosers, mostly. Check Joy Division for comparision. But they will be nothing without that Tony Wilson prick. And this guy was just that. Energetic prick, that have smell for good guys. We have to go further and adore real inventors to give them boost. This guy was really fantastic manager. But just that.
Wow – you lot are very bitter. And I bet almost all of you think you’re artists of some kind. As the majority of teens and young adults do. It’s all “art and vanity” for most of you. So it’s no surprise that somebody like Steve Jobs doesn’t make sense to you. Because none of you have the ability to understand what made him great. I’d explain it to you, but I really don’t have the time or patients.
I have to tell you a secret, I had an idea before I was born to make an iPod and iPhone and iPad… I just had to use other people’s ideas and skills to build them and I tried to put “I” there to claim it for myself. Most modern geniuses are just psychos stealing ideas and knowing how to benefit themselves with those. Great marketer but not the most intelligent in sense of understanding “everything”. He said himself once that they are a software company, now he claims to have invented touchscreen pc and (smart)phone? He invented the way to market that handheld touchscreen product for masses and forced people to use their OS and app store. They still are sued for stealing patents. I prefer a world using open sourcing but these people are the ones trying to benefit from inventions and they aren’t making the world any better like this.
He “had the idea” to make a touch screen device. Not like idea’s like touch screen systems, article calls, and everything else that is a touch screen device had ever been imagined and shown to the world earlier by sci fi movies and shows, it was nothing more than Steve Jobs vision that he came up with ALL by himself. He might as well take credit with the idea of sweat shops like the ones Apple products are made in to avoid business expenses or god forbid, actually having to pay the people who make the devices a reasonable wage while he’s at it. That dude was so full of himself, good riddance!
Increasingly, there is a disenchantment with the novelty of “ideas”. Why? Because it is the essence of elitism. It separates those who have them, from those who don’t – – creating in it’s wake a duality that prevails to this day. All people have ideas. Some act on them, and persuade others they are special, different and to act not on their own ideas, but on theirs. This, is the basis of accumulated wealth.
He forgot to mention the part where the Idea for all of this didn’t actually come from his brain. The idea he came up with was to ask his very talented engineers if they could take the already existing tech from other companies and pretty it up for main stream adaptation. This man is such a fucking fraud, it makes me physically ill thinking about how much credit he gets for doing next to nothing.
i make this mistake a lot. i do everything on my own, too much – most of the things i do would be better off allocated to someone else so we both could focus on what we are good at and this is why those who are worldclass are worldclass – they work with people who are good at the things they are not, people feed off one another, that’s why steve gave his idea to someone else and then someone else and then someone else, that’s the beauty of collaboration.. each person adds something almost unexpected and then that thing spins off other ideas, it’s necessary and it feels a lot better than doing everything on your own, really.
the real secret is in fact that he did not invent the touch screen at all if you take in consideration that the government is a minimum of 25 years more advanced in technological aspects it is almost guaranteed that this technology was invented prior to his acknowledgement even before he ” thought ” of the idea. that’s the real secret cars from the 80s such as the Buick Riviera or the Oldsmobile Toronado had touch screen receivers
I’m a Linux/BSD guy, but I have to lay it out straight: Tim Cook is a genius as far as efficiency, management, and oversight goes — the shit that generates shareholder value. But nobody can ever top Jobs’s qualities of being able to think up original ideas (relative to the consumer industry) at exactly the right time, and the balls to gamble dangerous amounts of resources on actually developing it.
