No this is Patrick

Well it’s all the leftovers at this point. When the priority is loyalty, performance suffers.

Honestly, phantom is overrated. It’s not terrible but it’s just….vanilla. The same guy made evita which is arguably much better.

Dude, that’s talos principle. You aren’t clever.

It’s not. Asahi is the project that figured out how to get m-series Mac’s running Linux. The code they write gets ported out to the rest of the Linux distros too. Asahi has fedora running on these.

You can use whatever you want. Asahi fedora Linux is just the latest thing for these Macs in Linux land. It launches there and finds its way out to the rest of Linux.

Oh I get that but those struggles are intentional and self-inflicted. I wanted a puzzle. I got a puzzle. The community can help guide me in directions when I need an assist.

The thing about Linux that sort of makes it a monkeys paw is it is incredibly versatile. It doesn’t have a direct path to a specific goal. It doesn’t get locked down with corporate bullshit some pinhead business major has decided you will love because it makes their line go up. It can be built into literally anything you want it to be.

But with options and versatility comes complexity. So Linux lets you do anything, but you have to know what you are doing. You can and will break things as you learn. And it will piss you off along the way. But that’s also the joy. If it does something I don’t like, it’s because I told it to, and that means I can also tell it not to.

Windows does something you don’t like? Well, have you tried buying majority shares of Microsoft?

Mac does something you don’t like? No, you can’t have that opinion because there’s so many PC fanboys mocking what they do right that actual Mac users dismiss real criticisms of the platform as haterade so there are never enough consequences for Apple to motivate change or even recognition.

Because it’s an 8th gen you can break things in favorable ways. But modern intel systems don’t have that vulnerability. And the ability to fully crush ME has yet to be realized. All we have right now is the ability to confuse it on a per-boot basis.

AMD has a similar problem thought its arguable less hostile and better executed than intel’s approach. We still want it gone though.

Up to the M3 is supported thank to the asahi project.

Obscurething.so not found. You can’t get it either, it’s unmaintained and doesn’t work with anything anymore.

Linux has this problem too. Stop pretending it doesn’t. Everything sucks for different reasons. You are choosing the trades you are willing to make.

You can’t remove IME completely, but depending on the generation of the chip you can nerf it somewhat.

No? You can run Linux on it just fine. They aren’t going to help you do that but they aren’t stopping you either.

So it makes a swarm and distributes pieces of the site all over the internet. Theoretically, the original peer can go down and the site keeps running.

Thats not how i2p works. I2p works in a different way and solves a different problem.

However, i2p CAN torrent so technically you could stack this technology in top of it.

You can do that in a high contrast way. Elements are naturally high contrast in that design. You don’t need to see the shading around it. That’s not the important part.

It’s also ridiculous that I’ve never got to this point in the first place. Spotlight was a solved problem. It was fast as hell. You type, it did. That was it no drama no waiting nothing it just did the thing and it did it fast and predictably then this last update comes out and they ruined spotlight.

Neumorphim mockups I’ve seen were visually interesting, clean and easy to read and understand, and flexible.

Apple‘s mobile UI definitely needed a visual overhaul. It’s time. But liquid glass was a step in the wrong direction. I’m firmly in the camp of neumorphism. This was horseshit. This does not solve a problem. It is not visually interesting. It is an obstacle in every goddamn fucking way. This says they had no engineers or designers in the room when they made this, it was all business majors and they fucking suck.
