Oh. Ok

Did you manually add a shutterstock watermark?

I agree. I use gnome on nix and it has been great, especially on a touchpad.

Regardless of the number of people involved in this conflict, nuclear escalation could only increase the number of deaths. There is no world in which atomic weapons solve this issue

Limited capabilities? I haven’t found a game in my library it couldn’t play locally. The ui is great, the controls work well, and it can even be used to run desktop apps.

Have you actually seen the video? It’s mostly about the exaggerated media coverage surrounding the nonexistent NyQuil chicken “trend”

I’m not sure what it could be, since I never get double inspected the same way twice in a row. I’ve had devices swabbed for chemicals, pat-downs, being made to walk through the metal detector multiple times (3+), and even standing still while a bomb-sniffing dog walked in circles round me.

Wow, I guess I’m not the only one this has happened to. I’ve been inspected or forced to jump through some additional hoop 90% of the times I’ve gone through airport security. It has been going on for as long as I remember, and happens regardless of which country I’m in.

These beef stroganoff memes have been great, and I’m very excited to see lemmy forming its own identity as a platform.

Wow that was a quick mood shift!

I’ve been using a fun read-it-later app called Omnivore. It has a great ad-free reader view, and it even supports saving lemmy posts.

I’m not sure what kind of trans people your interacting with, but your negative reaction may have soured your belief of the entire community. The vast, vast majority of trans people just want to live their life without having to feel like worthless outsiders from both their own bodies and fellow people. There is no push to make other people trans. If your not trans your not trans, and that isn’t a bad thing. Being cisgender or transgender doesn’t make someone any more or less valuable as a person, and it certainly doesn’t effect the validity of their opinion.

Sure, but saying it won’t work with Firefox at all is inaccurate. I hate this menu, but it’s incorrect to say it doesn’t give the option of using Firefox.

It opens Firefox. They’re complaining about nothing.

I’ve just wishlisted Shadows of Doubt. Seems interesting.

I’ve been playing a handful of games:

• Demon’s Tilt: an excellent pinball game that runs great on the Deck. Also, the pixel art is very nice.

• Hades: a great roguelike, finishing the last few side quests now.

• Void Scrappers: a fun little survivors-like. Cheap and addictive.

• Cassette Beasts: similar to Pokémon, if Pokémon had actually innovated in the last few years. Awesome mechanics, and all the battles are doubles matches.

Good to hear about more people playing Hollow Knight. It’s excellent, and I highly recommend avoiding story spoilers until you’ve finished the main quests.

Answering your question on the inconsistent back button, there are simply too many of them. Sometimes it is the small text link with an arrow in the top left corner, sometimes it is a built in app back button, and sometimes the text version sticks around during navigation for no reason until it is clicked accidentally and throws back to the previous app.

Wow, you weren’t kidding.

Your point is solid, but that level of polish on Apple products is only skin deep. For example, there are several missing features and issues with MacOS that have gone unaddressed for years.

• Window edge snapping is incredibly frustrating. Linux desktops and Microsoft Windows have had proper window snapping support for decades.

• The app uninstall process is inconsistent, with some apps remaining contained in the .app folder while others spill out all over the system.

• The recovery mode process for resetting an Intel-based Mac is incredibly tedious and time consuming.

However, MacOS isn’t the only Apple product with issues.

• WatchOS has an inconsistent and difficult to navigate UI. The bubble menu is inconsistent and difficult to navigate, and the list view requires that you sort by alphabetical when a “recently used” sort would be significantly more efficient.

• IOS doesn’t allow sideloading apps.

• TVOS is filled with ads for Apple’s premium services like AppleTV+

• IOS home screen icons cannot have blank space and must instead tile to the top of the screen.

• Methods for going back to what was previously onscreen are inconsistent in IOS.

• IOS browsers are required to use mobile Safari’s web engine.

However, this isn’t to say that Apple products are bad, simply to remind you that they do have flaws. Based on your wording of “bootleg os’s” I can’t quite tell what your referring to. Windows is the only OS I’m aware of other than MacOS that has heavy advertising, but your phrasing seems to place it in a different category altogether. Although if you are looking for a new OS to try I highly recommend looking into the many Linux distributions available. I recommend Linux Mint to beginners, since it is generally the simplest to use.
