I thought I was Margot Robbie, but it turns out I’m Rachel Keller. No regrets, she’s equally beautiful.

Fuck EA. If EA offered a game for $0.001, I’d still pirate it.

If Zed goes wrong, can we just fork it? If yes, I’d like to use it.

The CLA stuff made me suspicious but probably you’re right.

I’m using it for 2 years. Nothing bad so far.

I’m not sure. But it was used by some spammers for weeks by now 😅

You can use alternatives to Apple’s phones, tablets, desktops, headphones; but there is no Macbook alternative. It is just too good for mobile usage. Fortunately it ain’t restricted as iPhone’s.

I’m full-time arch user btw but sometimes I need/want to go to office or a place like coffee shop. There I’m using Macbook. My pros are:

  • about 10 hours usage
  • no fan noise
  • fast as f*ck (not as fast as desktops TBH)
  • good screen. I can easily see screen in sunny days (I don’t know about it’s tech but I guess it is OLED or MiniLED)
  • and the most important pro to me is: a touch pad that optimized for laptop usage. It has so many shortcuts to use whole system with only touchpad.

There are different laptops that have some of these features, but I have yet to find one that has them all. I hope this situation will improve with ARM laptops.

I don’t sit in front of the computer for 10 hours either :D However, convenience of not carrying a charging cable with me is cool. I think we can agree that the Macbook does some things differently than other laptops. While these features seem useful to me, they may be inconvenient for you.

Macbook has its own unique UX and is not generic like other laptops. When I say “there is no alternative”, I actually mean that there is no laptop with Macbook-like usage. Of course, hardware can be better or worse.
