Have you seen the whole situation with settings vs control panel? That’s damn infuriating especially for power users.

Also you think macOS consoles are bad compared to Windows? Windows can’t even decide on one command line or shell language.

Honestly it feels like neither macOS or Windows was designed properly for power users. At least Microsoft tries I guess.

areyouevenreal ,

Then why did they start making 120 FPS macs?

areyouevenreal ,

They make 120 FPS macs for a reason. They are talking about reducing frame rate, not increasing it.

areyouevenreal ,

You can install Linux on Apple Silicon Macs. Check out Asahi Linux.

areyouevenreal ,

I wasn’t trying to defend macOS. I am pointing out that Windows (which you adore) is also bad from a “power user” perspective.

macOS uses the standard command line shared by Linux and other Unix-like systems. Windows doesn’t. The fact that it has two of these non standard systems is even worse. Are you saying it’s actually better than using bash or zsh? If so then why hasn’t anything else adopted something similar?

There are entire businesses built around automation tools that literally just write powershell scripts.

That’s true for Linux too. It’s true for any good programmable CLI as that’s the point of having a programmable CLI in the first place.

You’re incredibly biased towards Microsoft in a way I just don’t understand.

Also your talking as if I am a current macOS user. I am not. I use mainly Windows but I have experience with all three systems. All are bad in their own ways and all are good in their own areas.

areyouevenreal ,

Yes I am aware. It’s made a lot of progress though. I wanted to point out that it’s an option.

areyouevenreal , (edited )

Telling someone to check something out isn’t the same as saying they should use it. You were stating falsehoods that paint Apple products in a bad light.

It’s also quite usable. The reason it’s in beta is because certain features don’t work.

areyouevenreal ,

Nice

areyouevenreal ,

You really think the only reason is gaming?

It’s for the same reason we went to 120 FPS on phones. It makes the interface feel significantly smoother and more responsive, especially scrolling. Benefiting games is just a side effect. It gets to the point that 60 FPS systems feel slow to me now.

areyouevenreal ,

You don’t have to. Look it up if you want.

areyouevenreal ,

Depends on what your use case is. If you don’t need the features that are still being worked on then it’s fairly stable and usable.

Lots of x86 systems also have driver issues with Linux.

areyouevenreal ,

If the mouse has hot keys it likely presents to the system as a keyboard as well.

We produce more than enough food to feed everyone. Even if you say something like logistics is an issue, we could still feed everyone in the developed nations at least, but we don’t. That’s a choice.

Climate change is much more of a practical issue than starvation and poverty. We already have solutions for starvation as I said.

areyouevenreal ,

We have enough food and we have a global shipping industry that is very efficient. So why can’t we feed everyone again?

areyouevenreal ,

That’s what I am trying to tell you. There are no logistical problems we don’t have the capacity to solve, it’s simply not profitable to do so. Feeding the poor who can’t pay you isn’t profitable so it doesn’t get done.

areyouevenreal ,

taking into account real geopolitics"

So you admit then that the problems are political, not practical in nature?

areyouevenreal ,

I think something is wrong with me then. When I start something early it normally ends up with me losing momentum part way through, stopping for ages, then having to work like mad at the end anyway. That or I end up changing project idea and having to start again. Both of these ended up happening with my dissertation.

Like even when I start stuff at the right time it goes to shit. Somehow when I do stuff last minute it mostly turns out fine.

areyouevenreal ,

Do things like pomodoro timers actually work?

areyouevenreal ,

Nobody likes email. I prefer the modern fediverse.

areyouevenreal ,

I think they are talking about internal family systems. It’s a type of therapy.

areyouevenreal ,

Wouldn’t that also apply to a gay kid in china? I somehow doubt they just give away free housing to people.

areyouevenreal ,

Yeah I really don’t know what your reasoning here is. Can you explain?

areyouevenreal ,

It sounds like what they are saying is correct then, so I don’t get how they have fallen for the idea that everything needs to be vocational

areyouevenreal ,

Because you’re not the victim, you’re the perpetrator.

areyouevenreal ,

I am sure the babies loved it to be fair

They gave it to adults too remember!

Rust really isn’t all that. Plus C# is used for all kinds of corporate stuff where Rust levels of performance aren’t needed. It’s also used in several other game engines

areyouevenreal ,

It being updated frequently just shows it’s being regularly maintained and improved.

C# has many of the same security and safety advantages that Rust does given they are languages with memory management and other safety features built-in.

Rust has exactly the same problems with depreciation as many Frameworks rely on experimental features which are subject to change.

Edit: plus if you have ever used Rust it’s a pain to learn and use compared to C#. C# is so similar to Java and so much easier than C++ that it’s really not much of a jump for programmers new to the language.

areyouevenreal ,

Do you not think Rust also has security flaws? At least Microsoft patch theirs.

areyouevenreal ,

What’s interior mutability and why do you think it’s bad?

I might have another try at rust some time in the future. I think I tried it in a bad situation having to use it for a web microsevices project when I had limited knowledge of the language. If it had been another language I probably would have been able to pick it up in the time frame required. Using it did cost me in terms of grades, and it was a poor decision to use that language at that time.

The main things I struggled with were all the borrow checking and asynchronous stuff, as well as the lifetimes concept. I still don’t understand how you are meant to specify object lifetimes. In C you assign and free things manually, in Java and Python it’s done mostly automatically, in C++ you choose manual or automatic when it’s assigned. In Rust it seems it’s automatic until the compiler can’t figure it out and then it becomes manual, which is frankly bizarre.

areyouevenreal ,

The current story of security flaws in Rust is quite good so far.

That means nothing without knowing who said it. I find it hard to believe it’s anymore secure the C# without security research saying so. It’s a very complex language from what I understand with a lot of moving parts. It’s also dependant on external frameworks in a way that C# just isn’t. If you have a problem with .net there is a company behind it who is responsible. Who is responsible for actix web or seaorm?

areyouevenreal ,

What’s so confusing about C++ syntax exactly? To me it seems to make a lot of sense given the languages history.

areyouevenreal ,

They didn’t say they were

areyouevenreal ,

Not really. Even old fashioned farmers boil their milk. Almost all milk contains dangerous bacteria regardless of what the safety standards are; this is because things like e.coli are natural for cows but harmful to us humans. Like imagine defending a practice that can literally kill you or give you life long digestive problems.

areyouevenreal ,

I doubt that’s a problem with human milk. We have to pasteurize animal milk because the bacteria that is symbiotic to them is very dangerous to us.

areyouevenreal ,

Have you actually talked to a microbiologist about this? It’s not safe at all.

E.coli might have some harmless strains, but you have no guarantee which strain is present. It’s also not the only dangerous pathogen found in milk. Did I mention raw milk is often contaminated with bacteria from cow poo?

Just because something is fine for a calf doesn’t mean it’s fine for you and vice versa.

Edit: oh yeah and I live in England. We have decent food safety standards here and that’s why raw milk isn’t sold at supermarkets.

areyouevenreal ,

A shelf life of one day? You basically just admitted it has harmful bacteria in it by saying this.

areyouevenreal ,

It’s already infected with the bad bacteria, and is a great growth medium for them. Also not everything you buy has bad bacteria or only has bad bacteria on the outside. Like you wouldn’t expect fresh fruit to have bacteria inside it because it’s a living thing with the ability to defend itself. Cooking food kills most bacteria too; that’s why pasteurizing things works.

Raw milk is known to be a major health risk, why would you just ignore it? Like you wouldn’t eat raw chicken so why milk?

areyouevenreal ,

You shouldn’t be eating raw pork either. Ever heard of a tape worm?

You’re a walking case of food poisoning waiting to happen.

areyouevenreal ,

That’s why you don’t eat rice that’s more than 1 day old.

areyouevenreal ,

You should maybe check the definition of the word secular.

areyouevenreal ,

Oh for goodness sake this is the most chronically online conversation I have ever seen. Both of you please stop arguing over pointless shit. Also telling someone to touch grass as an arguement is about as chronically online as it gets and also isn’t valid given you know 0 about their life. Please just stop both of you.

areyouevenreal ,

I shower plenty. Stop making shit up about people and using the same argument over and over again. It becomes meaningless when you do that.

I feel bad now for criticising the other guy when it’s clear now that you’re just an arsehole.

areyouevenreal ,

Projection is a concept developed by Freud and comes under psycho-analysis. It’s not part of behavioural analysis at all.

areyouevenreal ,

No the sensitivity of radiation based smoke alarms tends to cause false positives which in turn causes people to ignore them making them less effective. Optical smoke detectors are overall the newer and better technology.

That being said radiation based smoke detection is still a cool concept. There might be a few areas where they perform better still, though probably not.
