And there are Mac only applications I use- Devonthink or MailMate-which lack anything remotely equivalent on Linux. I was a grad student at the time with no idea what the future held for me. When the 2016 MacBook Pros came out with their shitty keyboards and USB-C only, I was really worried that my days on the mac were numbered. This is all to say nothing of the nine (9!) Debian VPSes I run, including this one, and one Void VPS. I maintain packages on Void and do my best as I’m able to contribute to that community. I have a 2016 ThinkPad T460s at home with Void Linux. I am an active member of the tildeverse, a confederation of pubnix (primarily Linux and some BSD) systems.
#BREW THEFUCK CLI PRO#
Notably, following a directive from my boss at the time, I dualbooted a MacBook Pro with CentOS (not the best way to go about that, TBQH). I’ve tried really hard to get into using linux as more than a server OS. In short, I have been a Mac user all my life. And what a great keyboard that thing had! Or my first Intel Mac, a 2006 MacBook Pro.
#BREW THEFUCK CLI UPGRADE#
Or what an upgrade it was when we got an iMac in the late 90s. I remember the smell it made when you turned it on. My first computer, which we got when I was 6 years old was a second-hand Macintosh SE from my aunt.
#BREW THEFUCK CLI MAC OS#
Riccardo Mori’s ongoing critique of Mac OS macOS design evolution, eg., The Notch is Wrong ↩︎ Which is maybe what upsets me the most about the linux vs. In sum, I am a lot closer to how many linux users want to use their computers than the median mac user. Maybe, someday I’ll be able to run Mailmate and Devonthink on Linux. Maybe someday Darling will be ready to fully support GUI apps. The first application I open when I start up my machine is a terminal (iTerm2, sadly mac only, or Alacritty which I also use on linux). I share a lot of the concerns that JWZ et al have. It means I wish-more than people might think-that I wasn’t tied to a single company that makes a lot of shitty choices. An obsessive commitment to everything being F(L)OSS does not necessarily result in good software. I wish very badly that Linux had a culture of shareware and small indie devs like Mac does. using Devonthink and Mailmate which I referenced yesterday. Not, for example, getting into arguments with random assholes on github. It means that I can buy applications from small and indie devs who spend their time just making their applications better. Are they making EU computers in a different factory? What makes it impossible for them to do the decent thing and let people order different keyboards if they’re already making each machine to order? If you order from Apple in the US, you can choose whichever keyboard layout you want. If you order from Lenovo in the United States, your options are US-English or Spanish keyboards only, for reasons passing understanding. The keyboard backlight does not (I couldn’t get the connector to stay in :/). but it helps if the new keyboard isn’t a few mm wider than the old layout one. Yes you can drop in a new keyboard on some Thinkpads, I did. It means that I can order a Mac laptop with the hardware keyboard layout I want. in less time that it’ll take to read the relevant manpages. It means I can use Karabiner, an ugly if perferctly function GUI keyboard layout editor to make new layouts. It means I love not spending so much goddamned time fucking with xmodmap in the event that my special keyboard layout stops working right. The vast majority of MacOS’s RAM usage is shit I never use. My Thinkpad regularly uses about 500mb of RAM (without firefox). It means that I appreciate how lightweight Void is. Why the fuck is control way out in lala land on the edge? It means that the command key I use the most on MacOS is the also the most ergonomically placed. It means no matter the application I can hit cmd+F1 and get to the menu bar without taking my hands off the keyboard. It means I love MacOS’s global menus which change based on the application but are always in the same place. I wish I could just port my bspwm config into it.
#BREW THEFUCK CLI WINDOWS#
It means that I love having my windows tiled and managed automatically. Mac I think (and here I have Nora Tindall to thank for asking) about the apparent difference between my experience with MacOS and Void Linux+BSPWM which made me realize that I am much much closer to what I want tht Linux experience to be on Mac and the Mac Experience on Linux. Following some discussions both on Mastodon and IRC after my post yesterday about Linux vs.
