yeah I was speaking historically. I use a Mac M1 at work and I like it. I know the newer machines are even better. I am not sure based on what I read mostly, that Apple Si is better than Zen, better at certain things but not all things. MacOS is better than Windows11, Windows11 is a steaming pile that should make anyone forced to use it want to scream, I know I do every encounter.

I love my Slackware PC at home. I XFCE is a better UI than MacOS at least if you are willing to tailor things to your liking.

You only think that's not political because you're confusing centrists with leftists.

No, it's because of all the idiotic enablers. We could just solve the problem by walking into the halls of power en masse and removing them but you can only get that kind of energy from total fucking clowns who want anarchy, and not the good kind that doesn't exist (as it leads naturally to feudalism) but the bad kind with only chaos.

Web apps make at least some sense when you are delivering the exact same app via the web and as a local application. But Microsoft isn't doing that, so they make none...

Amazing how Mr. Regulations, suddenly gets it when "wrong people" people are able to use them to obtain a barrier to entry.

Yet regulations are never a problem, when small shops are threatening to out compete big union controlled entities, private schools make public education officalls running indoctrination mills look like clowns, etc.

No infringement on the rights or property of adults is to great if it advances your Bolshevik agenda; but when government actually steps in to protect people who actually are able to be responsible for their own well being, like children, suddenly - government bad...

Very interesting indeed... Says so much about you!

Yeah but Work 6.0 on Windows was actually pretty good. It had everything you'd expect for the most part even in a contemporary word processor to day.

I don't think if took Word 2019 away from most users and gave them 6.0 they'd care much, if you could some how make the document compatibility issues vanish.

The problem with Word on Mac's was the Macs, by the time PC got 33 or 66mhz 486 CPUs, PCs were just better than Macs all around.

So much this. Unless there is a reason you CANT continue without an update, or possibly on first run, you should never ask a user to update on start up. They already use the software. They did not click it because felt installing something right now. The clicked because they wanted to do something. Let them! Ask if they want to update on close and do it in the background!

If you feel you really must, you can pop up the 'what's new' dialog the next time they fire it up.

Thanks for making my point for me there bro

I'm going to go ahead and assume bad faith on your part, because otherwise you're very stupid. But nobody in your potential audience is stupid enough to believe there aren't lasting effects to being bombed to shit.

I take your point about this being before the dawn of ubiquitous tech companies, but what kind of chilling effect did the Bell monopoly have?

Do you think about me when you're jerking off, too? I know you do.

It would take an AI to not get bored trying to construct working configs for SElinux

Perhaps you did not buy a Tesla. They are probably the most service-hostile vehicle ever sold in the US. Not sure about the UK, I haven't heard stories (horror or otherwise) about service for Chinese EVs yet. They would have to try really hard to be worse than Tesla, though.

So basically the FCC said guys, say your really sorry and promise not do it again.
