Xenia! My beloved

I may be cute, but my compulsion to read every line really hampers my ability to complete basic tasks.
Look at the alt text on the original post.
I'm using a new M3 MBP at work and it literally brought my compile time from 20+ minutes on a pretty beefy Windows machine down to about 6 minutes. Based on that alone, it's hard to imagine using anything else for serious dev work at this point.
Having said that, there's a lot of goofy Apple fuckery going on too. Multi-monitor support is limited to two displays, so if you want more than that you're stuck with an expensive third-party dock and DisplayLink drivers, which cause color artifacting in high motion like you'd expect from a heavily compressed video, which leads to eye strain. Mouse support is terrible without a third party app to fix the goofy scroll wheel acceleration curve they've built in, and even buying first-party peripherals doesn't solve it. I need a third party app just to prevent Mac OS from opening iTunes every time I connect a Bluetooth headset... So many little dumb things to deal with.

I have Macs for 10+ years and I never had them open iTunes when connecting a bluetooth headset.
noooo why is the text in the background i wanted to read that
You can read all of it as alt text on the original post.
I read the part where it called me cute :)
Why does it have to be furries all the time..

This is one of my favorite blogposts of all time. It is an extremely well written, in depth writeup of several security vulnerabilties of a popular app.
It also opens with:
Please keep in mind that this website is a furry blog, first and foremost, that sometimes happens to cover security and cryptography topics.
Because the Venn diagram is a circle.
I never knew I was one myself. Any good sites to make my own fursona?
I've read Xenia's rant and agree with it 100%.The only thing missing is something about media servers and self-hosting.
You cannot fix me, for I am not broken.
Hot?
I hate Apple with passion, but my GF has a 2013 Macbook, that is still getting security updates and is totally usable.
I replaced the spinning hard drive a while ago with a fast SSD, while using Clonezilla to copy the content and partitions of the drive.
And you know what? It started like a rocket. It has an Intel CPU, but I don't think installing Linux would have made it much better, especially UX wise.
MacOS is more than half the reason most people buy a Mac and not a cheap laptop.
Still nice meme tho. It's way more relatable than I want to admit it.
2013 Macbook, that is still getting security updates and is totally usable
How? My 2015 MBA doesn't get any updates afaik ~~but it's not on latest supported OS so I'm not sure~~. Did you use OCLP?
Linux would provide you with security updates for a significantly longer time
Just imagine the concept of software updates that don't care about the hardware.
There were no 2013 MacBooks with spinning disks, last year for that was 2012
Whoops! Then it is even older, you're correct.
Then it's a 2012 model.
One of the best they ever made imo

Yeah, that's where I stopped. Learn another adverb!
literally this
Not to get all Apple-apologia, but my wife's old Macbook is still going strong for casual use (email, video streaming, web browsing) after nearly a decade.
Not really a badge of honor or anything, just that it takes a lot to bog down even substandard out of date hardware to a noticable degree if you don't do a ton on it in the first place.
Did you install Linux on it tho :3
Btw might be a good idea to clean its fans and air vents, especially if it gets hot and/or slow fast
I personally like the aluminum case. It keeps them alive longer than plastic laptops.
On the inside its just like any other laptop except more solder points between the components (I used to do repair work on them). And they can sell more used since everyone wants to pay the apple tax.

You could also just put it on the old MacBook...
Christ, this image is like a 50-post long thread on Mastodon, etc: the worst possible choice of format/platform for that type of content.
"I have an essay to share, and I'm going to send it in snippets of a few hundred characters!" Why?
(Looking at you, Doctorow... π)
What?
