Apple employees this month will compete in Apple’s annual “Close Your Rings Challenge,” meant to inspire employees to get up, move, and close their Apple Watch rings.
The challenge, which kicked off July 1, lets Apple employees compete in teams of four to close their Activity Rings for the entire month of July. “Over the course of four weeks, compete for bragging rights, points and prizes as you move, exercise and stand your way to a better you,” the company told staff promoting the challenge.
Employees who earn at least 1240 points will receive a special black quarter-zip performance jacket with the fitness ringæ

So will Tim Chef be closing his ring for this challenge, or is his pipeline well and truly open?
Seems yours is!
This is news?
A marketing blurb that could mean anything, or nothing. Not close to historical Apple pith. In fact = dumb.
How about;
Just Say No To Blubber, or
To See Your Feet Again, or
Prepare for Skyrocketing Food Prices & Shortages, or
Minimize Your Risk From the Fall Pandemic (What You Should Have Done the 1st Time Around)
Just say no to blubber
Just say no to flub
Don’t become a tubber
Don’t eat the whole tub
If you want to rub her
Don’t look like a grub
Don’t just be a pubber
Instead own the pub
Shun the drug-crazed clubber
Drop the foot-long sub
Close those rings you fat fsck
Fatness you must buck
Become a man of action
Bad habits chuck chuck chuck
Most of the idiot conservatives who look mighty stupid posting disinformation here regularly would be exemplary in a Close Your Minds Challenge. Completely lacking any objectivity but only conservative tribal gaslit cult buffoonery and incapable of independent thought they’d be a natural.
The depth of libturd stupid is staggering. End Quote. Repeat Quote
Funny, I haven’t seen any conservatives post any disinformation, but lots of libturds post lots of lies and stupidity. Too stupid to know that you just defined yourself.
Funny, every single conservative comment made here is steeped in misinformation and lies. It’s the currency and recipe of today’s Republicans who wouldn’t know a fact if it slapped them upside the head.
For conservitards it’s “Lies, Injustice and the Seditious Way.” (BTW I am not a liberal, not even close so that blows your lazy imbecilic theory. There are plenty of saner Republicans out there who want to kick your gaslit hillbilly butt.)
Would you like to review all the ‘facts’ from left and the media they graced upon us the last 7 years?
Your position lacks any reference to reality.
Closed Minds, you are a true gaslit socialist Biden-loving, Kamala cunning linguisticing super-fsck. A real maroon of epic proportions, who has drunk soooo much Biden kool-aid that your brain has already left for Heaven’s Gate but your body forgot to follow. Dimmer than a dementia-laden Biden brain, you stoop so low as to believe Democrat BS about life, the universe and everything.
Also posting on a Mac site suggests you have passed one of life’s intelligence tests, openly declaring you are on the side of big government socialists proves you have actually failed. Well, almost, it depends on how old you are, there is a single solitary case where the decision might not yet be final.
You see, if you’re under 30 and you’re not a socialist, you haven’t got a heart.
However, if you’re over 30 and still a socialist, you haven’t got a brain.
Hopefully you’re either under 30. Otherwise you truly are a massive America-and-freedom hating d!ckwad.
Positions lacking any reference to reality has always been conserviturds (like you) style. It’s the very essence of their M.O.. There’s no lie you won’t believe or go to if it suits your ends.
“(BTW I am not a liberal,” LMFAO! That’s what they all say!!
Just like when somebody says “I’M no racist, but…”
You make my point. I’m telling you a truth but you don’t believe being the self-servng moron without intelligent talking points you are. So you go to an imbecilic insult again showing your true nature as a reprehensible and disgusting human being. What you just said is far more revealing about yourself. And it isn’t pretty.
Mr. Closed Mind have a conversation with himself…posing, what seems to him an articulated position that’s a non sequitur, that he agrees with.
Both the thinking and angst of today’s human (some).
He brings his own bots to vote for himself, too.
That is clearly the sign of a man with a good argument — NOT!
TxUser, for those of us unlucky enough to remember him.
El oh el. This makes news but the wet-dream inducing “champion of free speech”‘s news that he won’t be buying Twitter (which everyone knew was a farce) doesn’t and the usual posters are conspicuously silent.
You mean the same guy that liberals loved when he was the Vanguard of Green and shooting rockets to Mars in search of places to live…but became hated as he challenged the Farcical Free Speech Portal to which you refer?
I think I hear a whaaa in the back ground.
Twitter/Facebook et al were never a free speech platform despite what Trump and his ilk tried to claim and the 1st Amendment never applied to them.
So you hide behind that as an excuse for their petty partisanship and fear of facts?
Then you have the nerve to claim the right doesn’t know facts?
You sound like an old, bitter, washed up attorney who ALSO claimed to be a Republican yet never ONE GODDAM TIME ever took a position on the right no matter the discussion.
This is how you leftist HAVE to control information in order to win and why you defend twitter.
It’s not an excuse Tower, it’s the truth.
See if you can follow along here: Twitter is a PRIVATE company, NOT a Government organization and as such they can promote whatever agenda they want. If they want to, as you said, engage in petty partisanship, they can do so at will and your rights to free speech are still intact and unmolested.
Quick Quiz for you Tower, what are the first four words of the First Amendment?
I never said they CAN’T.
But the fact that twitter and FaceBook BOTH hide news is very telling.
They can do it all they want, people are fools to believe what’s on there anyhow.
Again, this is what the Left requires to win, as they can’t compete with facts.
The disingenuous part is that they CLAIM to be fair while all the time deceiving people.
Simple solution, Mr Bungling Knowledge. Time for the US to force ALL companies to abide by the first amendment. If it’s good enough for we the people, it’s good enough for every company, too.
FREE SPEECH is wasted on maroons like you, but your right to it must be defended to the death, not ensured it brings you death by others.
It is extremely important to give people enough rope, so they hang themselves verbally, for those are the people who are happy to demonstrate the “wisdom” of opening their mouths and for all to be certain they truly are fools, rather than leaving their mouths closed and for us to all be in doubt.
You, BK, are one of those “wise” ones, and I’m glad to know it.
It’s cute Enough Rope you think I advocate for liberal 1st Amendment views.
I will defend anyone’s 1st Amendment rights just as much as I will point out when people incorrectly assume that a private company is beholden to that same amendment.
You want to say something along the lines of the most ardent conservative views, I will support your right to say it.
You want to say something along the lines of the most extreme liberal views, I will support your right to say that too.
You can’t have FS for one or FS for some. It’s FS for everyone, even views you don’t agree with.
Which, you blithering fool, includes forcing Facebook, Twitter and everyone else to respect first amendment rights too, the fact you don’t understand proves you truly are a smart-talking morrrrrrron
Caught, your grasp of the 1st Amendment is tenuous at best.
As I have said here many times, the First Amendment does NOT apply to PRIVATELY HELD companies. If we were to, as you say, force Facebook/Twitter etc the only way you could do that is by law and that would get shot down by the courts quicker than you can say “Freedom of Speech”
If a “public company,” might be more apropos.
I’ll add, what kind of person advocates, permits, or isn’t bothered by any company, that may not allow free speech, but at the same time permits fallacious info? Standing behind such a co b/c it advances your own narrative at the expense of truth is one ill person. Because it’s happening, it’s a sign of an unwell culture. The rudder is floating in the water.
Everyone should be forced to abide by free speech. Companies, organisations, schools, taverns, the lot.
There’s either free speech for ALL, in all situations, except apparently calling out “fire” in a crowded theatre, or there isn’t.
You lot here (you know who you are) want to deny free speech in vastly more circumstances than “fire” in a theatre.
Disgusting. Go and do us all a favor and move to Cuba and North Korea and China and Russia and even Canada await where they love people like you lot. (You scoundrels and anto-capitalists, pro-libturds know who you are). There’s a far, distant and very short queue to go into those countries
Please do your duty, stop living in the America you hate so much and join that far queue, stat
Leftest, “Everyone should be forced to abide by free speech. Companies, organisations, schools, taverns, the lot.”
Forcing someone to agree with your speech is in no way shape or form free speech. FoS doesn’t exist for speech you agree with. Rather it’s there to PROTECT speech with which you DON’T agree with.
“There’s either free speech for ALL, in all situations, except apparently calling out “fire” in a crowded theatre, or there isn’t.”
Nobody is prohibiting you from speaking. Why do you wish to do so for others?
“Disgusting. Go and do us all a favor and move to Cuba and North Korea and China and Russia…..”
So on one hand you decry people who deny free speech and yet in the same breath tell us all who you don’t agree with to go to countries that repeatedly deny free speech. Ok.
