Can’t actually buy MacOS, you have to buy their hardware. For the time being connecting with an Apple Account is still fully optional.
i dont think apple forces a account on you like microsoft does and they say they are "piracy respecting" like if you only want a editing machine then you dont need a apple account
Edit: Tbh the tracking pixels concern me but your personal data is not sold which is good and i remember in ios telemetry was opt out
the only issue with linux tbh is the lack of professional apps someone told me before that you have to use the open source alterntives but i have a affinity photo free trial for 6 months and i need either windows and mac to use it i can run it on linux by compiling a fork of wine that fixes it but time wasting
However anticheat games arent big of a deal anymore and i learned after switching to linux running anything in the windows kernel is very sketchy but i kinda want roblox but they well explained why they blocked linux tbh
i enjoy linux tho its very nice but i wish the app support is improved and ik this is a memes lemmy community
Use Sober for Roblox. It's closed source though but made by same dev of vinegar.
i kinda dont wanna use the android version of roblox to game but if its my only option then prob and thats why i still dualboot windows 10(downgraded from windows 11 bcs its soo slow and garbage even on my midrange gaming pc + i have heard about it before
No poblem. I only play Roblox to play my friend games. So, I didn't know about that.
this reason might sound weird but Mainly bcs some games think your playing on mobile i love how you can play pc only games and has good mouse and keyboard support tho
yeah i might have sounded akward
Linux installs have gotten so quick and painless over the past decade or so. Usually just following a GUI, waiting like 5 minutes for the install, and suddenly you’re booted into a fresh desktop.
On LTT there was a race and the person who chose to install Linux had a huge head start as the install only took a few minutes. While Linus took forever to install windows.
I forget the outcome of the video, but I wish he would show more support for Linux on his channel.
Is it really this easy? I want to side load linux onto my desktop so i can start transitioning over (especially because i have an ancient laser printer with linux drivers in the box, that windows 10 wont support!)
I basically only use foobar, firefox, and gimp as it is
yeah it's that easy, install Ubuntu, ignore anyone who says this is not good and you have to install something else, it's bad yes but it's bad in Linux standards still much better than windows
I don't know what's the easiest way to do it because my installations are all kind of custom, but I'd say make some free space (50 GB probably to start with) from within Windows and then tell the Linux installer to use the free space in the disk and that's basically it. If those are your programs you are ideal to be running Linux, though, you may want to try actual Linux music players.
After you get decently experienced with Linux, you're tempted to move to a "difficult-to-setup" distro for fun and more flexibility. Nothing wrong with normie distros, but these advanced distros are really good - you can strip down "bloat", pick your own init system, your own login daemon as well as your own job scheduler.
I think with memes, there's something of an implicit promise of at least some degree of comedy. I get the sentiment here about proprietary vs open source operating systems but there doesn't really seem to be even an attempt at being funny besides maybe the way the characters are drawn which, given that as memes, they are recycled art used to establish the format, they don't really elicit much of a laugh because there's not even an expression of humour through the original artwork.
This isn't really a commentary or a parallel or satire on that distinction between open source and proprietary OS installation, it's more accurately describable as a complaint. Simply placing this complaint underneath the yes chad and crying wojak's doesn't really feel like a step up from a text post that says "I don't like Windows or Mac OS because you have to pay for them and they make you sign up for and agree to things". No one asked for my opinion I know, but I think this is a critique worth making: if you sum up your attempted meme in a bland, emotionally neutral sentence and then compare that bare sentence to its proposed meme counterpart and you can barely see the difference then maybe it's not a meme that has to exist. The format is flexible, but you can still use traditional written words to express complex thoughts, not everything has to be meme-ified and if it's not even funny when it is, why should it be?
