I got caught in the cupspocalypse 3 weeks ago, because there is an unannounced dns vulnerability, do I get to bad mouth the penguin?
Average Usecase
Scaling, MacOS has no actual scaling it will only lower the resolution, and using Retina on anything that isn’t sold in an Apple store (and even then) just simply does not work. It essentially has no HiDPI support past using native resolution with slightly larger text that is not adhered to by most of the operating system itself. I am at a loss at why you think this is well handled, what criteria are you using?
I feel this is one of those few sectors, like wifi compatibility, where Windows completely destroys Linux, MacOS, and BSD. As someone who regularly switches between operating systems on bare metal & 4K, trying to use a HiDPI display on *nix is painful and will only kinda work with caveats after 100 hacks (as seen here), whereas Windows has a zoom slider that just works.
Plot twist, you have to partner with Richard Stallman for the first open source licensing to get off the ground and end up with GNU plus BSD and its all powershell commands.
All my homies hate wayland, what kind of desktop isn’t a file
As I understood it, the stereotype is guy linuxes all day, and here we have expectations subverted.
The pi 5 and cm4* have pci-e lanes available. On pi5 you need a daughterboaed to use it.
You have to hit ctrl on the keyboard while you click to bypass it. Apple Support Article
As I understand it, the stated purpose is to prevent supply chain attacks and ultimately possible damage to their brand. In practice many of these same vendors ship their own spyware and do not want it removed.
While I love this list, it is more applicable to the turn of the century than a a decade ago. I was half expecting to see “ram no longer has to be installed in pairs” on the list.

A Chevy dealership in Watsonville, California placed an Ai chat bot on their website. A few people began to play with its responses, including making a sales offer of a dollar on a new vehicle source: https://entertainment.slashdot.org/story/23/12/21/0518215/car-buyer-hilariously-tricks-chevy-ai-bot-into-selling-a-tahoe-for-1
The game is listed as not supporting SteamOS (Arguably the most popular linux distro for gaming right now) and incorporating drm that does not work on Linux, this is far from false advertising as I can see it. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2073850/THE_FINALS/
Sounds like the Internet Protocol I grew up with 😍
To me the funniest part is that telemetry is usually for ads to convince people to buy stuff, and secondly for nation states to track you, but the debloat crowd usually never leaves home (a registered address) or buys anything, and surprisingly apt at credit card points with the money they do spend (the og trackers).
