Yes of the two of us, I am clearly the one ragebaiting.

Come on man, at least be creative.

I don’t know what T*xas is. Is that like Voldemort?

No but I do think you worked extra hard to find an annoying response that has zero to do with anything I actually said.

They don’t seem to need justification

Or, and hear me out: you post things you think are funny and ignore the dumbass vote brigades run by bots and morons. You don’t need an award trophy for writing words into a forum.

Then you don’t need/s

Most blue areas produce money, most red areas (excluding Texas I think) are leeches.

I literally said I don’t know why Hitler is involved. It seems a little bizarre.

The 1000 little interface stupidities is what gets me on Mac, like making “cut” part of the “paste” action. I’d get it if they had different terms (Ctrl+c=select, Ctrl+v =duplicate, Ctrl+optV=move) but they’re still called copy paste. Or the delete button on my keyboard being interpreted as page down. Or the enter key being used to rename a file. Or how every action just has to have an animation. It adds up to being just such a mess.

The command line is not the end all and be all of tech literacy. It’s one access point which doesn’t get used that much outside of copy-pasting sudo commands from the internet.

Oops, looks like some Linux guys got triggered by my post. Poor babies.

How is that any different from antagonizing someone because you don’t like them? I guess you could call it antagonizing someone because you think you won’t like them? Or because you think they might do something to make you not like them?

I never said not liking them was unjustified, just that the specific switch described isn’t easily justifiable.

Why, it was just old Mr. Miller the whole time. He was just pretending to be a demon for internet points.

I mean the rest of that paragraph conveys my opinion on that subject pretty well and this does nothing to counter that opinion.

Pizza is toast? Seems like something MAGA would say

It’s pretty good, goes well if you do a proper layer of egg and maybe a little carbohydrate coat.

This is actually quite tasty

If you’re talking about a commercial building or something, sure. I get the concept I suppose it just seems like it’s probably optimizing 2025 hardware against 2005 constraints when we’re talking about a single household. I’m unlikely to automate any part of my home in the near future but if I ever did I’d definitely want to look for some data (like, “gaming latency increases 20% with 10 smart devices”).

We’re talking about things that take ms to decide and act upon. I mean if you prefer it or you’re used to it that’s fine but for many people I’d argue the cost of change in either direction is higher than the aggregate savings in time.

Fair enough, just seems like sticking with the more standard tech has its own advantages but if you’ve got a lot of devices in the net I could see the value

Why? It’s plugged into mains, you don’t need to save 5 watts.
