I have a few 2015 laptops, the last time the apple logo lights up like it damn well should, (and their operating systems are still getting updates almost a decade later) ipods and an iphone 6 I’ve fixed, apple TV because it was cheap enough. all told I’m in it for less than the cost of a new macbook and apple hasn’t got a cent yet. I have an imac from 2008 I found on the side of the road that actually needs linux but a computer of that vintage in 2008 would be a paperweight at best, the fact it’s still useful as a computer at all is astonishing to me.

I had a 7800 with custom bios and ram cart and would play a kaboom hack that started at max difficulty and ramped from there

a lot of early 2000s 2600 homebrews would probably make my list but Thrust+ is the GOAT

I recently got into the apple ecosystem and am loving it.

I know this is a linux community and apple is literally the devil but I haven’t had a bad experience with it yet.

…or as I’ve come to call it grep+linux

if I cleaned it up I wouldn’t know where anything is

you wouldn’t download a brain

I think I destroyed a USB stick back in the day doing this shit. be careful they don’t lock the stick and if they do make sure you use the program to wipe the stick ASAP before you forget what program you used to make it.

I have a ventoy stick for this exact reason, just copy iso to stick, no need to burn a new one every time.

Depends where it is.

3rd party reviews? Those should be removed. Company website? Knowing they use DHL is very useful to set expectations low.

entirely reasonable for a customer to be upset with poor customer service

oh no

anyway

Vimeo is explicitly not competing with youtube

FTFY

repair is a revolutionary act

you’ve never been even remotely close to the cult of management have you?

was?

I use Wayland instead

if you’re running a single instance of a game it’s already there. (I multibox so fuck me I guess)

if you’re waiting for native support it’s a chicken and egg scenario, your best bet is to switch asap and show developers there’s a market.

they don’t bother me

probably because they would have to back down of pretending they require specific hardware I’m not going to buy.

probably life or execution

if maximum sentence was like 3 years or something I’m sure he’d have bought his own plane ticket

so I can read full colour comics on an e-ink e-reader then?
