/me gets popcorn out
Apple people will be outraged about this post, even if it's mostly a joke.
My conclusion from it is that there are difficult topics, and, apparently, changing standards fast is not helping at all. (DisplayPort was finally more or less working, but sure, swap to another display outlet... and the same for a lot of things).
There is no time to build systems (hw or sw, or god forbid, the two together) that are _mainly_ bug free with common hardware. Windows XP in it's final days was close to this. The most stable desktop linux distribution I used was a short lived Linux Mint release, 10 (Julia), which doesn't make any sense.
Maybe if standards we slowed down a bit and we'd give more time to sand the rough edges tech history wouldn't constantly run in circles.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- proverbialbunny 7y agoWhy was Mint Julia more stable for you? On my end on the up-to-date version and it's perfectly stable on my hardware. (i5 /w a modern nvidia gfx card)
- SomeOldThrow 7y agoIdk, macs are pretty close to worry-free hardware interactions. It’s a plug and forget system. Maybe windows is too by now.
