Well, in the logistics department there is definitely more freedom. But it's not as much as you would think. You can ship stuff easily, travel easily, and send money easily, but at the end of the day, you'll have to submit to the

Stereotypes exist for a reason. It would be stupid to argue that every single Russian is exactly like that. But at the same time you'll find those traits exhibited in a lot of Russians at various levels of seriousness. Being bigoted is

They won't be able to solve the problem. The only reason all those roadblocks exist is to control/regulate everything in a way to ensure the maximum possible taxation. At the same time, bureaucrats get to justify their existence,

Well, that's a very hard question to answer without additional details. If it's graphics/presentation heavy, you most likely will need something like InDesign. If there is a lot of math, you'll need something like Latex

You can load unpublished extensions with developer mode. It's not as convenient but works just fine. Try that with Safari.

API level maybe, but what I care about is being able to install an extension with one click and no hassle. Apple makes this too hard to extort money via the App Store, so they can shove it where the sun doesn't shine.

Yep, it's just the reality distortion field. Apple fanboys can never admit they don't have the best stuff. In similar veins, they'll say that Windows uses more RAM than macOS. Yet on both an iMac that was bootcamped and a cus

You just dismiss all my critics as irrelevant and not something I should care about. Translation came later and isn't as convenient as on Chrome. I don't know why you think "never use any other hardware than Apple's&quot

Translation came out much later and isn't as convenient (no auto-loading). Form filling and login just work better on Chrome; that's not subjective at all. Tabs syncing works better and faster with Chrome, one of the reasons I swi

Apple took a shortcut for DPI scaling implementation because they only care about selling their own hardware. If you use anything else, it's a pain in the ass. This is a big problem of today's Apple, because they can't manage

I share your sentiment very strongly. Apple's change for the sake of change is extremely annoying, especially since the changes have been regressions lately. They always push their commercial interest at the cost of their users, refusi

And the problem with those comparisons is that they make it look like everything is swappable without any issue. Places where we raise cows generally do not support other types of agriculture (especially milk cows in the mountains). You may

The reason to use Chrome is better extension support, better/more useful functionalities (translation, favicon bookmarks, Google Lens), better autofill/autologin, and better performance for web apps generally. Another very useful

They are not as volumetrically efficient, but it's probably not too far from the approximation plus 10-15% I think. Potatoes are mostly water.

by seec 9mo ago
Potatoes have low caloric density (80 kcal/100 g), so the ideal would be to dry them and store them in a sustainable form like ready-to-use mash. At 2000 kcal/day average caloric expenditure, you could feed 1.6 million people for

Yeh, Linux desktops are pretty good nowadays; the problem is just software support. If commercial software were easier to make/sell for Linux, that would be great. There are not a lot of technologists left, and they are dominated by th

Alt Tab is alright, but it's not as smooth as native Windows window management. It always has a lot of overlays/orphaned/invisible windows hanging out in there. Something like that really needs to be implemented at the OS lev

Agreed. I feel like if you were to be content with those tools, you wouldn't really want to pay for them. I guess the argument is getting access to Final Cut and Logic for cheap, but there are pro software of the same quality accessibl

Yeah, in my experience, Pixelmator looks the part but isn't a very good software, especially for vectors. Affinity stuff doesn't look as good but gets much closer to Adobe quality tools.

It's OK but way too limited for proper layouts and doesn't have enough features for long/complex documents like books. As it is, it's barely better than GDocs but less convenient, and since people rarely need to print st

That has always been an issue. Pros buy Apple hardware but very rarely commit to Apple software. In my experience, they are perfectly right. Not only can Apple not be trusted to maintain the software to be competitive feature-wise, but they

Agreed. The problem is that native window management is pretty bad in macOS. And the 3rd party tools solving the problem aren't that great on top of being expensive sometimes. Apple could fix it, but instead they made overlapping windo

by seec 9mo ago
That's basically the problem of today's Apple, and it won't get fixed because they have an incentive to let the 3rd parties fix those problems (they win both by taking a cut of software sales in the app store and selling more

Macs have largely been the same. It is just a matter of buzy compute and letting all the accumulated tasks complete. When you buy powerfull computers, this problem basically doesn't exist, both on Windows or macOS. Since Macs have hist

The reason is money and control. That's it. Believing otherwise is foolish. They don't really give a shit about privacy or whatever is the supposed agenda of the day. It's about not paying as much to the US and being able to

Your parents determine a lot of your trajectory. If they don't make the same investement in their kids as the average for the socioeconomic, you start with a heavy penalty. You can work hard, but you'll have to work twice as hard

I'm mostly talking about people that don't really have a manager above them or all the freedom they need to organise payroll as they see fit. Restaurants owners, recreation center owner, tradesman, etc. They really could reward go

Ah yes for those use cases it makes perfect sense. Apple excuse for stopping the big iMacs was that when you bundle up the display with the compute it makes it hard to upgrade and the whole thing become useless. But in reality it just looks

Yeah I think the 40s series is the sweet spot for nearfield, definitely. I am not a subwoofer guy, in fact I am pretty much against subs. In my experience, the result never really match the theory. Bass frequency are not directional but if

Yes, I completly agree with your point of view, which is exactly why I said that. They are using capitalism as a boogeyman for everything, when in practice the system in place is so far removed from "real" capitalism that ones nee
