I do agree that superhero movies have been taking themselves entirely too seriously for entirely too long. Go back and watch the original Spider-Man or The Shadow and then jump forward to today. All the camp is dead now.

7·3 小时前We should just keep trying systems that push everything to the absolute extremes. It’s worked out for every other fallen civilization. Why should we be any different?
I finally broke off my dependency from Windows last year. Still have the Mac for music, but not having to deal with a single Windows update or bug for six months has been such an improvement.
I’ve always said that with Linux, it’s a buggy, under-development experience, but the mistakes are honest. When one of the biggest companies in the world can’t stop from putting out one broken update after another, all for the sake of short-term profit, I had to just call it quits completely.
If you don’t think you have flaws, I don’t like your flaws.
What I would give to be able to comfortably give up MacOS. I don’t even hate it, but Ableton is about the only software that I need it for.

5·2 天前Uhhh. Okay. That’s not one on any of my bingo cards. Haven’t heard their name since I was using Windows 7 and wanted Rocket Dock. Hopefully it works out for them. I’m amazed their business model is still running all these years later.
How do I know how cool they are? Their bash doesn’t even open with a fastfetch command!

This is why I ended up diverting into production. All of the tech jobs were harder and harder to get and the quality of them was rapidly declining as well.
At least with my production job, I get to get up from my desk regularly and have realistic, concrete goals to hit.
This isn’t aimed at the person making the video because there’s about 1000 videos like it, but these videos I find are rarely a help. They walk you through enough to follow the instructions found on their official documentation and then the presenter is like, “and there you have it!”
There’s always so many things glossed over and no matter who you are 12 minutes will never be enough to introduce Docker. And yet you will find video after video of people doing 10-minute Docker tutorials.
There are just so many things ignored like how to setup reverse proxies, file locations/permissions, backups, and more that all get obfuscated by Docker and people never mention in these videos. Why do people keep making this style of introduction?
Anyone can follow the first three steps of a GitHub Readme. It’s the 10 steps after that a beginner would want to know about and that’s right where all these videos end.
Sadly was taken over and no longer has the iconic voice and music. Now it’s just some crap TTS without the same level of whimsy.

Technology@lemmy.world•Apple introduces Macbook Neo - cheaper Macbooks starting at $599English
261·8 天前I’ve been running an M1 for years now. So tired of the argument that Mac is underpowered. No, it’s not a video editing/compiling/gaming powerhouse, but it more than makes up for it with an 8+ hour battery life, best-in-class display, and silent running, going on 5 years now.
It still handles everything I throw at it just fine. If I need to bust out the compute power, Mac just isn’t the right rig for it. But that doesn’t make them useless.
Y’all need to take some time away from the internet if a random meme about an open-source operating system you’ve not heard of negatively affects your state of mind.
I mean, that’s their model, yeah. That’s exactly what it is.

9·8 天前Exactly what I was thinking. If I were to be angry enough about this when it actually mattered and I could have steered the boat, I was way too young too even see that it was happening.
Not to say I don’t actively pursue and promote OSS all the time, but I feel like the impact is so much more minimal than it could have been.
