  • Haven't tested macos myself (and ain't going to due to progressing hardware enshitification), but windows isn't any better, in my experience.

    The only kinda benefit is that you often don't need to install it and are likely accustomed to using it. But then come problems. First, you need to remove a metric ton of crap by both vendor and Microsoft, so much so it's often easier to install a clean msdn image (which negates the benefit of windows being preinstalled). And if you happen to remove more unnecessary crap than expected by Microsoft, you also get weird and hard yo track issues.

    Then reliability... The last time I needed it, w10 bsoded (oh, yeah, the famous undifficult to repair "smth died, and we want tell you what exactly"; so much better than logs in Linux, am I right?) 5 mins after install from an original msdn image, and after reinstalling touchpad and trackpoint didn't work properly, for example. So, that's actually worse than any Linux distro I've tried so far. But idk, mb I'm just unlucky. Also, crowdstrike 🙃

    Then the usual way to install software on windows... Which sucks hard: heck, even Slackware is better in that regard, and it kinda says a lot.

    Soo, basically leaves us with "windows good 'cuz I know windows".

  • So, lots of Linux fans should be fairly attractive. Like we read (the docs), know a few languages (at least bash), occasionally write scripts, travel (between distros), and archers became a huge meme 🙃

  • Yeah, but dudes there are kinda pissed off about semantics, IMO. Like, unless there's a PR from tuxedo using the same v3, I don't think it should concern them in the slightest... And instead of saying "keep in mind it's not upstreamable" they go out of their way to mark tuxedo's patches as proprietary 🤨

  • I mean, unless it's explicitly specified, one can still argue. For fun, that is. I did it a few times with stuff like using maps when the task said I couldn't use loops. Didn't really get into trouble since there was a proper solution ready as well.

  • The Zerocam app has been on iOS since earlier this year and has already amassed a loyal user base that swears by the limited processing look.

    With the free tier, you can only take 5 photos per day, but an annual $9.99 or $0.99 fee unlocks truly unlimited process-free photos.

    sigh I fucking hate those sheeple.

  • It never ceases to amaze me how ppl go spend a shit ton of money on clothes that aren't even more durable than their cheaper counterparts. I mean, they do they, if it brings 'em joy, yet weird nonetheless.
