a456463··on MacBook Air with M5
dudee.. ihave 32GB ram in a laptop from 2015 and $300 laptop from ebay for compiling kernels. please.
a456463··on MacBook Air with M5
Same. Virtualization is worse than on windows. OSX is garbage made by wannabe designers who don't know anything about human design
a456463··on MacBook Air with M5
Eh. Just simply on stability and life, beyond CMOS battery and laptop battery changes, my 5x 2015-2018 lenovos are working like a charm. I love the plastic case, it flexes and catches falls better than the mac. The MBPs have fallen down and dent like crazy, leak electricity through the metal body, weight like crazy and still no OS freedom and no free app store and you got to rely on "homebrew"? It is wild that we are relying on "home" brew for making a machine from on the richest companies in the world palatable.

lmao the koolaid in this thread is mind boggling. most of the development on mac unless everybody is doing iOS and Swift development with 3rd party web services / APIs, is going to involve brew/virtualization. currently running 29GB out of 32GB on M4 for work. This is just absolute unrealistic claim.

I also survey and manage development env for a 250 engineer tech org. 8GB is not going to fly

Tbh it is unfit for my in laws as well. And one is a gambling addict. The real regulation won't get done but policing people and becoming authoritarian, sure

How about you parent better and prevent your kids by educating them against the dangers of said things?Limit their time online and what they can do? Why should democracy be at stake and people's freedoms, just so you can get away with not parenting.
a456463··on EFF to Court: Don't Make Embedding Illegal
Clowns who know nothing about internet want to regulate it. Shows how their monopolies are propped up in real world. On lies and disparity and subduing people.

Your ipad babies are not my problem. It's called parenting. Don't do ipad parenting then. We didn't get a SEGA console and cable TV was restricted to only 2 hours. It was fine. It was fun. The only thing I wish for from my child is more time with friends not more screen time.

Stop making your kids my problem! We have everything to hide. It is called personal identity. All data online managed by companies will always be misused, lost to scammers, blamed back to you for something you never did, and hunt you down.

Using with JMP.chat/Snikket for family.
a456463··on US orders diplomats to fight data sovereignty initiatives
The republican population and the foolish minded people who want to be centrists have led to this situation of democrats and republican politicians acting out this way. More than 50% hopefully don't feel that way. I don't

This sums it up so well.
a456463··on Red Hat takes on Docker Desktop with its enterprise Podman Desktop build
Thank you!!! Been struggling with time skew on Podman desktop for around a year now with no fix in sight. At least in the initial test since I saw your comment a few hours ago, this is working great!
a456463··on Text-Based Google Directions
Love this! Thank you
a456463··on What it means that Ubuntu is using Rust
agreed!
a456463··on What it means that Ubuntu is using Rust
But rust!! and AI!! and safety!!! /s

This noise around rust is aggravating. I loved Rust. Learned and used it from the first book but this garbage propaganda and MIT license thing is annoying so much

a456463··on What it means that Ubuntu is using Rust
Yup. Work hand in hand with FSF. Use GPLv3. No. it is about fat binaries that are just blobs without any introspection and ownership.
a456463··on What it means that Ubuntu is using Rust
> If you don't like what Ubuntu is doing, just don't use it.

They said this for systemd too but look LFS dropped non-systemd support

a456463··on Open Letter to Google on Mandatory Developer Registration for App Distribution
Maybe we should take away peoples' phone calls, ability to use knives, walking on the street, swimming in water, drinking liquids of any kinds, alcohol, trains, while we are at it.
a456463··on IDF killed Gaza aid workers at point blank range in 2025 massacre: Report
This is such a garbage assessment. I have don't see post of pro-Israel companies and startups that fund/enable this massacre being flagged for political content?

What is this facade of impartialness and too much politics? Tell that to the people massacred.

Good. Flock deserves it. So, do all big tech companies that have been "move fast break things"

a456463··on The peculiar case of Japanese web design (2022)
Japan is "old" But old is not bad. The VC and SV fetish of new just so that can steal people's money needs to get old, by that token
a456463··on The peculiar case of Japanese web design (2022)
And now all AI slop coded by anyone is that. Tell tale signs: AI likes to make cards, implement SVGs by hand, all cards have a left hihghlight border, off center font spacing, badges and notification icons, etc.
a456463··on The Age Verification Trap: Verifying age undermines everyone's data protection
not saying that I support age verification in any form, but you seen the vape sales?
a456463··on The Age Verification Trap: Verifying age undermines everyone's data protection
eh... they are more like `dumbocracies` with these measures. None of this is to protect children. Except to satisfy rabid parents who think the world needs to serve them.
a456463··on Keep Android Open
I flash phones almost every other week. And tablets. I have been flashing since Androids came out. But never bricked. But maybe that is why I don't have any problems.
