The sinking of the yacht came on the same day that Mr Lynch’s co-defendant in the fraud case, Stephen Chamberlain, was confirmed by his lawyer as having died after being hit by a car in Cambridgeshire on Saturday.

Ok so they just staged their deaths and are settling in to their new lives on some fucking island yeah?

Those mats are called anti-fatigue mats in English. OP definitely needs one of these if they don’t already have one.

Mouth tape? Is this like a sleep apnea home remedy or something? I’m now worried I’m sleeping wrong.

Yeah steam for me also, back in 2004 so about to hit that 20 year badge. I technically had an older steam account with the OG HL, CS, and DoD on it, but my current account had HL2 and CSS on it so I stuck with that. I think it’s even older than my Gmail account tbh.

Ohhhhh, it’s not a “wireless speaker” per se, it’s just a computer stuffed in a speaker that connects to WiFi on its own.

Audio? Weird again. For my PC I have a Scarlett 2i2 that I plug my ATH-50 headphones in to, and the line out on the 2i2 runs to a super SUPER old pioneer amp that’s connected to some equally old Technics box speakers, which don’t sound great but get loud. That all connects to my PC and laptop through the KVM. I have an Apple TV that’s connected to a Denon AVR, which has two Focal Choras connected to it. When the laptop is connected I can play music out both sets of amplified speakers together, without Bluetooth or anything, using the Apple Home home play thing. I live in a relatively small house, so that covers most of it. I think I might add in a HomePod so I can have a speaker in the kitchen while cooking, and outside in the backyard when chilling by the firepit and stuff. I’m really hesitating to do it though just bc I’m not sold on the wireless stuff, but the HomePod uses WiFi not Bluetooth so it’s not as bad I guess.

Whenever I switch between keyboards with different slopes (is that the right word? Like whether they sit flat on the desk or are angled due to their flip out feet or just the board chassis itself) or keycap profiles, and to a lesser extent the switches themselves, It takes a bit of an adjustment period before I’m not keying typos and stuff.

I’m weird and don’t use Bluetooth for any of my primary inputs or audio outputs, so I can’t speak directly to there being an inherent Bluetooth issue like that, but I really doubt it. The massive proliferation of Bluetooth “gaming” mice and keebs wouldn’t have happened if there was such an issue. I just don’t use them bc adhd and keeping peripherals charged is a losing proposition out the gate.

Also, did you type this post on that keeb, or did you just proofread it a ton of times.

What type of OS functionality did you have to buy apps for? I bought a MacBook in 2019, first time using macOS on my own device in my life, and I haven’t ran into anything I’ve needed that I couldn’t get for free from brew, direct git clone then build, or installing from the installer on the vendor’s website instead of the App Store version.

In fact the only app I’m currently subscribed to is Infuse, and that’s because I wanted to turn off my Dell R710 for good and moved Plex to my NAS, but also have a shit ton of both encoded and remux 4K content, and I can almost hear my NAS laughing at me if I’m not direct playing. And that’s more for the Apple TV than the laptop anyway.

To your point about needing to be comfortable with zsh, git, building from source, all that cli stuff in general, I don’t think that’s an accurate assessment. One of the things I like most about macOS is that having that knowledge isn’t a requirement to use and enjoy it, but it’s there if you want it. There’s a reason you get both power users and non-technical people in love with macOS. The crossover appeal is much more weighted to the power user side for Linux. I don’t know anyone who “loves” Windows, they’ve either used it exclusively their entire life because it’s what they were exposed to in school, at the library, at work, or wherever they used a computer, or they have to use it to play games, although that’s thankfully getting better now.

And yeah the snapping is atrocious, when compared to Win11 or pre-11 with power toys. Idk why, I guess I’d just chalk it up to a fundamental difference in how Apple and MS saw their window managers being used during design. At this point it’s kind of crazy Apple hasn’t put work into improving it though.

I’ve seen a ton of response across lemmy like this. People are just primed to get hostile/argumentative for no reason and, as in this case, because they completely failed to comprehend the original post.

If you can frame every guess so that it can only ever have a binary A/B answer, troubleshooting and guessing are pretty much identical.

No.

They’re not killing Blu-Ray. They’re killing consumer writeable Blu-Rays. Tell me you only read headlines without telling me you only read headlines.

In the US nobody really mentions their salary as an after tax amount, it’s almost always give as the pre-tax, pre-deduction amount.

All most apps like these are is a wrapper around API calls anyway. I’ll keep using my iPhone and just self host whatever replacement gets released.

Worst case I can just spin up an Android qemu vm on my real computer, and let my pocket computer just make phone calls, send messages, and shit post on the internet as nature intended.

Classic food poisoning. Wasn’t sick at all, just a touch of improved ability for the heart muscle to use glucose as a fuel.
