Live is substantially better on Mac.. I'm pretty sure installing packs takes about 1/10th the time it does on Windows too.

When I was young I really liked them, right up until my dad made me feel terrible for doing so. I'm pretty sure he was embarrassed by it.

I didn't really think or care about this for a long time, until randomly one time at an IKEA I saw a guy in his mid 20s who just chose a stuffed animal, hugging it and smiling. His family was with him, and they were smiling and supportive. When I got back to the car I couldn't stop crying because the only response I ever got from my family was being yelled at or mocked. I may even have cried while writing this, so perhaps I'm still a tad upset.

My wife really likes stuffed animals however - and we have a raccoon that comes in the bed sometimes. The raccoon also came to a music festival with me once:

Christ, it was stupid when they renamed it on macOS... this is just embarrassing now.

My experience editing Wikipedia:

• Made a small change
• saved it
• immediately realized I had fucked something up
• frantically figured out how to delete my edit
• never edit Wikipedia again

I'd rate the experience a solid 5/10

You forgot the sex bots that comment on every single new video that YouTube has decided to ignore

Me and 4 friends want to milk a cow together, is there a group rate?

International terror is where it's at these days

Projection?

I've been part of groups with cheaters and non-cheaters, so I don't think the rule is definite. However the two do seem to slowly separate automatically (presumably due to people who don't cheat eventually getting annoyed by the people who do's commentary on how badly they want to fuck everyone).

Also worth keeping in mind that everyone who cheats started off as a non-cheater, it just seems to be a one way ticket.

It could be argued that getting a job because your resume isn't terrible is a benefit?

A lot of automated application portals seem to require it... Considering where AI is at I see that declining in the future however

It is definitely a stupid strategy. I have a large iTunes library, and when they released the apple music app for windows a few years ago I tried switching over. Somehow the new app was even worse than iTunes, so I had to figure out how to switch everything back. At the same time I tried installing the iCloud app for PC - that may be literally the worst piece of software I have had the displeasure of using. It installed a bunch of services on my PC, added itself to the file explorer, and then failed to let me log into my account. That was also fun to figure out how to completely remove.

Maybe it is working again now.. I have no real desire to test it again. Clearly they released these applications (after years of complaints) knowing that they weren't functional, or possibly without any testing whatsoever. Overall it is a laughable effort from a company with a budget as large as Apple's.

Hating on a trillion dollar company is never dumb 🙂

They aren't incompetent, they want people to think "wow this is horrible, it must be my windows PC - I need to buy a MacBook!"

What?

Good point, maybe he shouldn't have hurt anyone though. I'm pretty indifferent on blowing up a fertility clinic however, I assume everything they did was insured and I can certainly understand the guy's point of view.

Don't worry it's just 900 local pumpkin and turnip farmers trying to make an honest living

Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure if I grew up in America I would have gone on some sort of rampage by now

As someone with BPD, I can confirm this guy is an idiot. If you don't want to be alive the first step is killing yourself, not someone else...

Don't forget Holy Moses
