I had a boss who thought I was slacking off when I opened the "incomprehensible black screen with random letters and numbers".
Dammit, they're catching on
Were you?
To be fair, the way I would get around the URL blocker at work for some basic 10 minute diversion type games would be up just have Gemini code a game for me and run it locally.
My tip: Linux distributions have games. Debian has vitetris and bad games (air traffic controller/ATC)
Was sadly on Windows without my explicit consent :(
Same, but wsl exists (and is where I do pretty much everything else than necessities)
The Mac user just sees every non Mac user as poor.
Colours are fucked
All good on voyager
For me too, on Summit
Are you on eternity ?
I am and same colors here.
Still fucked
Why is your eternity like that? Mine looks fine
I feel at odds with this because I use all three on a regular basis.
Work laptop and music production desktop: Mac. Systems I administer at work: windows and ms365. Home desktop, server and raspberry pis: all arch or Debian.
I do too, I wonder how many of us are out there
Literally dozens of us.
Crazy how unapologetically biased this is
I used all 3 for a few years a short time ago until I traded my aging MacBook for a newer iPad Pro. I still think about going back but for a Mac Mini on the side of my gaming PC.
But then I feel like it’s more of a gimmick. It’s that feeling I get to just spend for the sake of spending to get something new and shiny, not necessarily because I need or would actually use it for anything I don’t use the others for. I didn’t do much different on there. It was nice for some situations when the other computers (let’s be honest, it was always the Windows PC) would act up like fixing a bad partition.
But now I am good enough with Windows and Linux. Doing my best to move solely to Linux, but VR and work keep me back. Ugh…
I loved using Linux, but I prefer and use MacOS for everyday productivity. Can’t afford losing time tinkering with the OS, too much of a temptation…
