I think the problem is there is no grey area in opinions on Apple. Either they are perfect and pro-privacy and all good (not true), or they are anti-consumer, anti-privacy, anti-user pro-capitalist (again, mostly not true.) Truth is somewhere in between, and judging the product without one of those preconceived notions above is helpful.
For me, I could never use a laptop by another maker because the trackpad on non-Apple devices are (in my experience) absolute garbage.
Apple products are without critique for sure. But if they last 2 or 3 times as long, are they all that anti-consumer? Compared to Windows, are they all that anti-privacy? I suggest you take another look, without your preconceived notions of Apple products.
With the enshittification of the rest of the internet, I’m starting to welcome simple email and rss feeds.
Including room and board and books. A foster youth exiting high school or aging out of the system can now depend on four years of housing in exchange for getting an education. Fucking awesome, and why I’m proud to be a Californian.
Sounds like what I’ll do. The mods on Reddit were stubbornly against any spoiler warnings. Hoping we could have that here.
If we’re not going to post spoiler warnings, I’m gonna need to block the entire community.
Seems to be what those in most of the US would call a standard size pickup truck. Not “compact” like a Hilux/Tacoma, nor comically oversized like the oft-lifted 3/4 or full-ton trucks.
Calling this truck an “SUV” is very mildly infuriating.
Calls it a “proxy war” and yet still is upset when it’s suggested they have Kremlin sympathies. GTFO with all that.
I’d like to see the big subs each create an official mastodon account for the sole purpose of announcing trustworthy information. One the subs come back up, especially if it’s earlier than expected, how will we know if they were taken over by the admins?
Lemmygrad.ml on the block list is the primary reason I chose this instance over others. There’s value in having a pleasant place to digitally reside.
Great to know, however I don’t ever see myself buying a Windows laptop. A superbly built laptop (and trackpad) running Linux is the grail.
