All of our laptops are either Mac or Linux. Eight or ten years ago it was all Mac but now it’s mostly Linux. Ultimately, clients that have closed Windows ecosystems always provide us with laptops or a jump station to connect to. So if they are going to do that anyway, there was no need for us to Windows internally.
This is Lemmy after all.
Me, a Gen-X’r in tech since the mid-90s.
…the French, in principle, rarely distinguish between fact and impression.
The author comes out swinging and still manages to bore quickly.
Smells just like the Brexit gamble.
Lemmy has dedicated porn instances (lemmynsfw.com and pornlemmy.com). Too bad some instances have defederated them.
Voyager for Android shows one tall image.
I miss Austin sometimes.
Honest question: What does Microsoft expect people with no Internet access to do?
Every bone in your hand and wrist broken? I carry a .45-70 rifle when I hike and it kicks like a mule.
EDIT: This is what I carry (Marlin 1895 SBL). Same ammo. Notice the slight size difference, and this is meant to be compact and easy to carry.

Genocide is bad.
Oppression is bad.
Racism is bad.
Those don’t seem like difficult concepts to grasp.
Every time I see these generational memes I think of this one.
Apple gets a free service that would cost an insane amount of money if they were to pay API fees or build their own data centers and models…
All true.
OpenAI gets free advertising by being included in millions of Apple devices.
Also true but woefully incomplete. They also get millions of Apple devices and users to train their models at no cost. When I say you are the product, I mean that Apple sold access to you and everything you do to OpenAI in exchange for OpenAI functionality at no extra charge. I have no doubt that Apple will make a best efforts to anonymize data, but OpenAI absolutely will have deep access.
Because the end user is the product.
Absolutely. Enterprise license and MSDN was expensive and a pain in the ass. Once we dropped support for Microsoft as a whole and transitioned to Google Apps (early adopters) everything became easy. OSX never broke, although the hardware could be problematic at times. The main reason most of us started transitioning to Linux from Mac was Apple’s hardware choices. That said, I have a MBP M3 Max for music and graphics and that Apple silicone is absolutely beastly.
