  1. It's more like infantilising ... It looks like it was designed for small children.

  2. And yet, even Windows 11 has a moderately-competent window manager ... and menu bars that are attached to the damned windows. They may have made a dock-like thing (without that derpy bouncing-icons thing), but they failed to suck as much as macOS.

  3. The goofy detached menu bar sucks on modern machines that have multiple monitors.

  4. Can confirm that Finder is utterly incapable of finding anything. Mind boggling that it's faster / more likely to get a good result to just pop open a term and run find ...

  5. What about surjectively and bijectively?

  6. Run everything in Ring 0; what could go wrong!?

  7. Languages aren't fast/slow memory-efficient/inefficient. Implementations are. Programming languages are abstract, symbolic, mathematical systems ... not to be confused with their approximations/realisations.

  8. macOS: The worst of *nix combined with the worst of Mac Classic.

  10. I mean, we still have TempleOS and EssenceOS for people who want to run ... unique things.

  11. Also 'most GUIs suck' is a bad argument; you only need to find / run one that you don't think sucks.

  12. Can confirm that the 'jet engine' Mac lived up to its name ... Had one when I was a PhD student and ran Linux on it; during boot, the fans ran at 100% until I logged in ... which was fine -- except for those times when my officemate was in and I was not.

  13. ... and so limited that only a child is happy to run it.

  14. omfg, the detached menu bare is truly the worst. It comes from an era when people only did one thing at a time (i.e., no possibility that you'd confuse which window is active / which bar it is) and only had one display ... and had tiny displays (it now can be a giant pain to move the mouse back and forth betw the window and the bloody menu bar when you have a 4-up split and you're using one of the lower windows).

  15. It's way worse than Windows. At least with Windows, you can install your distro of choice on WSL and pretend it's just a Linux box.

  16. I'm kinda surprised that anyone who buys a Sys76 doesn't reformat their machine and install Arch or Debian immediately.
