Ahh the classic “it works on my machine” - yeah, good for you. The year of the linux desktop can all be run on your machine in particular.

mate one issue is the one installed by default on many distros is wrong, the idea that the average person is going to be able to run horrible commands to rip the kernel drivers back out again and force install a version that isn’t the one recommended by the repo (which is what I had to do to get mine working) is simply ridiculous. THAT is not a user’s fault.

Lmao this is absolutely false, and the fact that you think this means you’re either hilariously misinformed, actively sticking your head in the sand, or outright lying.

Lol no, there are far too many problems still with linux. I recently did a dual boot setup to run arch and windows 11 on the same machine, and was saddened to learn that the process would be just as horrible and impenetrable for your average user as it was literally like 15 years ago. It’s just one example, but linux on non linux certified hardware is still far too often running into some kind of issue.

…surely not

lol right?

you can agree or disagree, but you should at least understand that this was done very much on purpose, for what they consider to be a good reason

well yeah, half of the users would’ve just left it plugged in all the time if they were able, defeating the point.

sorry this is an apple hate thread, you’re not allowed to go against the grain here

different people have different opinions, more news at 11

I think this sounds just a tad biased.

With the touchpad, by decent you mean the best in the business, nothing else comes close. I don’t personally like their mouse and keyboard either, but I wouldn’t say it’s bad, just not for me. I like my mechanical keyboard and chunky mouse.

good is subjective, what you meant to say was “not to your liking”

I honestly can’t imagine a non-at-least-slightly-problematic reason you’d bring this up… but putting that aside for a moment, in general I agree with you that overanalysing these can be tiresome. The problem with this one in particular is it’s such a contrived variation that it really brings it upon itself. In fact, it’s precisely because it’s particularly context dependent, that I have more of an issue with it.

It’s more that it doesn’t meet the bar of an abstract thought experiment that can be discussed without context in the first place that it’s the issue, and most thought experiments do, including the original one.

Basically I’m saying “this one would require contextualizing and overanalysis in order to get anywhere at all, and that’s tiresome, therefore that’s why it’s bad”. Do you see?

P.S. There’s also no part where we’re taking this “literally” per se.

source that socialised healthcare will be dismantled because of that?

maybe try moving countries first, it’s just terrible in the us
