We were moving between countries and could not bring it all. Transporting it would be the big hassle, and we dont need the like maybe some 100€ at most we could get for the stuff, so we put it up for free. Lots of people were bringing candy, store bought and even homemade, for the stuff they were getting. Very nice actually.

It may only be possible to say so because I have not used windows in 20ish years, but I find mac to be completely horrible.

Super slow. Even the arm ones, to switch to the workspace where my vscode windows are takes like 4 seconds, starting bash (I have gone through my bashrc like 10 times) takes several seconds. After a boot it takes minutes before everything is loaded in the settings, meaning some settings are not available directly after boot (why is the settings window modular and dynamic like that?)

The mouse speed and accelleration just feels like I’m stuck in butter. I have made some config change outside of the settings to speed up the mouse, but I have to reboot to make them take effect is insane. Accelleration is suppose to be off, but that disgusting buttery feeling is still there. If I switch to linux it is not.

They had an update where they broke ssh. They fucking broke ssh for like two months. How the fuck am I suppose to work on it?

Not having a proper distinction between left and right opt/cmd/control which makes adapting keyboard layout to your personal workflow hard as shit.

You have to like click everything and random shit grabs the window focus all the time. So many times I have switched workspace or something and it displayed it but the focus is still left on the laptop or something. Randomly you have to click on a window instead of just using a keybind to get there.

After a day at work, forced to use mac, I just have to start my linux machine, even if I do not have anything to do on it, just to feel sane again.

They should make a usb-port with a spring in it which can be released with eject. Until then I have to be content with just making sound effects when I run eject on other devices.

Like a fairly realistic one: measurement exclude a cosmological constant as the explanation for cosmic acceleration in favour of a quintessence scenario.

I guess it is different reasons for different people. But for me, I started using ubuntu in 2005. When I was learning linux, it was just not complete enough. You install another DE/WM, to try it out, and stuff started to break. So I switched pretty quickly. I tried to return every now and then, because it had an environment of newer packages which I waned/needed. But it was never worth it, this or that always broke when you tried to do something peculiar. I use ubuntu every now and then, but it is mostly no good. The issue is really just snap. Snap firefox on rpi, which is the default, is just trash and unusable. It is crazy that they made it the default. I have also had servers where snap-services just eats too much cpu and first thing I have to do is to purge it. So, in summary, I don’t really trust them to provide a reliable system, and I am sceptical of their direction.

That screenshot is from another site. An account named longpanda has also appeared on lemmy and had their post/replies removed because of impersonation suspicions.

I think it is wise to take extra care on this issue on what you read and trust.

When you really have to look deep into god’s mind you just have to put templeOS on a supercomputer.

Yeah, there was always one broken on these fuckers

tell me how can I feel pain

Wait, this is just a post here on lemmy, not a reply in the issue thread? Or am I just not finding it? You should probably have this discussion in the github issue too.

“Some” appears to be 3. How many are left?

Analysts using Julia and Mathematica are confused by this meme.

I’m running PopOS on a computer for wathing media at home. I’m not too impressed. I read a bunch of comment threads recommening it so I treid it out. They seem a bit unstable – that at least falls in OP middle ground. I made an update and dpms management was just different, like the screen is no longer turning itself off. I’ve had some thing like this happen on it. It’s not breakage, it’s a bit annoying. “Just works”? Eh, sure, kinda’.

There is a subtle difference in the abriviation: “DN!” and “DN”. :-)

Just to type it out to make it easier to find: Democracy Now!

Not the person you were replying to, and don’t understand exactly what you mean with port and device id. But if it changes every time, -ish, you plug it in, do you mean like /dev/sdX device names? If so, then maybe look at /dev/disk/by-TYPE/ and use those instead? You have stuff there which is the same each time you plug in.

I have been forced to use mac now for like a year, and I don’t get the whole “just works” opinion of it. Like I have had so many issues with just basic stuff. Turning off mouse acceleration and the mouse still feels all slimy. Highest mouse speed is so slow and setting it higher requires some crazy tricks, which also does not work consistently through boots. It can’t wake up a lot of monitors, I have to turn them off and on manually. If it cannot connect to a monitor properly but tries, it like disables your keyboard for a few seconds while trying. Some items in the settings menu take a long time to load, as in if I reboot, log in, open settings, there is no mouse settings.
