I’m using macOS on an M1Pro MacBook Pro as a middle way between Windows and Linux. I’m also over 30 and I can’t stay I don’t like a profesional looking nice design and great materials/build quality. I had a really bad experience when I bought a new Lenovo gaming laptop 2 years ago with Ubuntu Linux. The trackpad and graphics card were not working due to driver issues. I think I also had to compile a kernel module…Full Disk Encryption I feel is also finicky. I always forget …is it LUKS on LVM or the other way around. btrfs was still not straightened out.

I wonder how battery usage compares on a MacBook between these 2 and Safari.

A great win for decentralization and censorship resistant networks!

Jfc I am underestimating how dumb these people are. Guess Monero is still extremely underpriced.

It’s actually the way the sound is remixed these days. I’m not going deaf😮‍💨. Old movie dialogue is loud and crisp as fuck. Just watch some TCM.

Why would they incur the cost of retrofitting their factories or production process for a small minority that wants removable batteries. If there was enough demand they’d know because they’d market it as a feature and profit from it. Truth is normies don’t care or prefer the look/feel of soldered batteries and unibody slim phones. I’d personally like all phones to have an unlocked bootloader but I know that’s not what the market wants and manufacturers rarely offer it. I can’t force them to make one for me so I just ignore them and buy the one with an unlocked bootloader.

The market has spoken. If there were enough normies who would want bulky phones with removable batteries they would buy them. But they don’t… They want shinny unibody phones with locked bootloaders and proprietary connectors. Only a small minority cares about these issues.
