I got a MacBook Pro M2. It’s a good piece of hardware, MacOS was kinda annoying at first since it’s my first MacBook but I got the hang of it and it’s basically a normal desktop environment to me right now and I can’t see that changing significantly in the near future, I don’t think AI is gonna move that fast as to completely eliminate the need for typical PC desktop environments.
I’m not sure if that’ll happen any time soon, they’d lose out on the IT professionals, audio professionals etc.
I got one just this year and it certainly doesn’t feel like an iPad at all.
Not sure what you’re talking about, a whole lot of people use MacBooks, I don’t think their market share dropped significantly. Desktop Macs, sure maybe but I think even that won’t completely die out.
Oh that’s already a thing. Remember that AI girlfriend app Replika?
Damn the cognitive dissonance must be wild.

Couldn’t this be more efficiently solved by having only approved users post images? Like people with some posts/comments and positive karma (or whatever it’s called on lemmy).
You’re not the target audience, the target audience is edgy teenage boys. Postal 2 was the perfect game for 13 year old me.
You’re right labeling them as “legendary” is just weird tho.
Death to the concept of intellectual property and all but I’ve never actually felt Denuvo making problems for me when I played a game using it, you’re right it seems to be working as advertised.
I’m still hoping someone to crack it in a more reliable and fast manner, fuck large gamedev companies and their profit margins.
Death to all golf courses. Except minigolf, that’s fun.
I’ve used it a few years ago, it might have gotten better but when I was trying to use it it was annoying as fuck, cross-application links that you would expect to open the browser or whatever other app just didn’t seem to work right and that was kind of a big deal for me since I use Slack a lot.
Also I’d imagine your disk usage would go through the roof with it.
I just don’t see the point in it tbh, what was wrong with Linux package management as it is?
I’ll take Linux hardware support over Microsoft any day of the week.
I’m really undecided on this. It really depends on the type of hardware, for example when dealing with graphics card drivers, especially nvidia I’ll take windows over linux any day. On the other hand on Linux I don’t have to install drivers for almost anything and things mostly just work unless the device is brand new.
I’ve been using all of the major OSs and they’re all good and they all suck in their own way. Windows does suck a bit more than the others, but I don’t think it’s as terrible as diehard Linux fanboys make it out to be.
I still use Windows on my home PC because bideo gaems and music production. I’d prefer to use Linux instead but oh well it’s not the worst thing.
I’ve had pretty much the opposite experience. My friend has a macbook that he drops all the time and still works.
Also it’s not like other brands are immune to denting, it’s just kind of the nature of the material.
Kinda agree on the keyboard but I got used to it and also most brands have that type of keyboards nowadays anyway.
ThinkPads are far superior than MacBooks for longevity
Not sure that’s true. I have a pretty top-of-the-line ThinkPad (3 years old) and it started falling apart after like a year of regular use. Maybe years ago that was true but nowadays I feel like everybody except maybe Apple has crap build quality.
Ah you’re right, completely forgot about those. They were absolutely dreadful to use.
I’m on a relatively well known private tracker. It’s just a kind of a tradition of some release groups to do this. I think it goes back to the times where this shit was shared through unstable FTP servers where you needed to restart the download of a file if the connection broke so they .rar it and split it into a dozen or so chunks. Nowadays it’s almost certainly unnecessary but they still do it.
I’m seeing it less and less thankfully.
Not so sure about that tbh, I’ve found my decompression speed is often slower than my download speed.
It’s super annoying when they pack movie/show torrents in .rar, just a complete waste of time.
I’m here for it, it’s already a complete shitshow, might as well go all the way.
Oh that’s definitely going to lead to some hilarious situations but I don’t think we’re gonna see a complete breakdown of the whole IT sector. There’s no way companies/institutions that do really mission critical work (kernels, firmware, automotive/aerospace software, certain kinds of banking/finance software etc.) will let AI write that code any time soon. The rest of the stuff isn’t really that important and isn’t that big of a deal it if breaks for a few hours/days because the AI spazzed out.
The torrent protocol wasn’t designed with anonymity in mind, not Tor.
