[PIC] Steve Jobs Afer Resignation


Recommended Posts

TMZ would not Photoshop a copyrighted image. Plus why would they want to? It is real.

Was thinking the source might have faked it, the image just looks a bit odd tbh, the way him and the other guy are just standing there standing impassively while their pictures are taken.

I also don't know how reliable TMZ is, if they source the images themselves or if they are pulling it from a 3rd party site. I'm just sceptical since I'd have expected more news coverage if he was as close to death's door as that image implies.

I doubt it is photoshopped, that's how very ill people look. They can go from looking totally fine to very bad/thin in a short period of time.

Just look at how quickly Jack Layton (Canadian Party leader who died this week) went from

(May 2011) to
(July 2011) and then death.

Steve has been looking thin/ill for quite some time, so it wouldn't surprise me that he looks the way he does now if his illness has gotten worse. I somehow doubt he would have quit as CEO if his condition was improving or had a chance to improve in the near future.

great example..

To say that mans condition looks bad would be an understatement. I fully believe that the image is NOT photoshop. It is quite possible that Steve just doesn't want to stop working, that its the only thing making him feel like his regular self, and thats also why he took so long to step aside. He's always seemed like a huge workaholic. But yeah, with the right make up and stuff its easy to look healthy for a presentation.

I do think it's photoshopped. Squizzed 10 maybe 15% vertically. Everything in that picture looks a little too thin and tall (the other guy, the truck, floor tiles) IMO.

I don't know, I'm no doctor but the pic might've been taken just comming out of a chemo session or something. I tend to think that someone in that particular condition wouldn't be able to stand on their own or wouldn't be allowed to leave bed to avoid any mishaps.

To sell even more? (It might have been photoshopped by the original source though)

Just looked up the cancer he has... It makes people look this way in a very very short time span... I wish him the best of luck... My grandad passed away of lung cancer on the 6th and he never smoked, He never looked like this tho.. Thanks God... You just never know.

As much as I'm no fan of Apple or Jobs for that fact I wish this on no man and hope for him to recover. No one should go through the pain and suffering of cancer

Agreed. It's horrible to see anyone have to go through something like this. It's truly a shame.

Some people are in denial because they like Apple and they can't imagine him gone. He is in bad shape. This is obvious. It is most likely that cancer is taking him and we don't know how much time he has but the reality is that it's not good. He wouldn't have resigned Apple if he was capable.

The photo is most likely not altered (I won't go into ethical aspects of publishing these photos when the man should be left alone to spend this time at least without media on him) because TMZ bought the photo from PacificCoastNews.

    • Payday TWO!! Is 13 years old man I feel old - I remember trying it out and if I did not know I would say 5-6 years ago or something
    • Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Payday 2, the most popular entry in the heisting game franchise, is getting a surprising update after all these years. This is slated to be a complete engine upgrade that will enhance almost every aspect of the 13-year-old title, targeting performance, loading times, file size, rendering backend, and more. Developer Sidetrack Games is planning a beta to test out the new version ahead of the full public launch. The development team today revealed that the long-awaited upgrade to the 64-bit architecture is happening with this Diesel 3.0 engine update. By letting the game use more ram than 4GB, it is said to improve stability and compatibility on most hardware. It should also help modders in the long term with implementing larger changes too. "While many of the changes are made on the backend and not everything will be visible to you guys because it is a massive rewrite of the entire codebase, there will be a lot of things that you can look forward to," Sidetrack explained. Payday 2 will also hop over from DirectX 9 to 11. Instead of visual improvements, this is slated to reduce the amount of VRAM used by the title, letting more lower-end hardware access the title and run it better. Since these changes would require a complete redownload of the game anyway, Sidetrack says it has revamped "the game's packaging and bundling system." This should reduce the installation size from 86GB to 32GB. "So, now it's time to finally move the game to your SSDs," added the studio. The Payday 2 Diesel Engine 3.0 update is entering open beta on June 30 for Steam users. No console release plans were announced today. Sidetrack Games says it has been working on this complete rewrite of the codebase for the last nine months. While these changes should break most mods, the studio encouraged modders to use the beta period to repair their creations with support from the development team.
