This is both sad and funny. I would be very tempted to explain this to him and then offer a Michelob instead. Or a Stella Artois on the house.

Anheuser-Busch still dominated the market last year and remains the largest beer company in the world. These bigots don’t have the power they think they do.

Can we start with Trump having to finally serve?

Ah geez who would have thought those two things are related?

I wanna see Scotty installing these on the Enterprise.

I was just gifted a bag of Domain Kona and thought it was excellent. Admittedly I’m new to better coffee so my palette may not be as refined as other people’s, but I haven’t had anything better yet. This stuff is very pricey so I’m searching for some middle ground, but I would treat myself to this again.

I look at this thing wondering why the hell it has 9 antennas?? Or is that really just for looks? Which only raises more questions really…

Wtf is shoe gazing?

This is the kind of shit that makes Idiocracy the most weirdly prophetic movie I’ve ever seen.

Thats cool but it is a transitional thing. If you keep going back the transition doesn’t happen. Stand your ground.

Ah yes politics, the thing that can be discussed in 140 characters or less. Twitter is definitely the prime place for this discourse.

I get what you’re saying, I really do, I just think its super fucked up that our politicians have collectively decided this is THE place to engage people when there is no political topic that could possibly be discussed properly this way. I’m pretty sure I already exceeded the limit just saying this.

Yeah fair enough, same shit where I work too. It’s a little crazy how protective they are of their proprietary secrets, but they just straight up rely on microsoft to handle all the data, be it via email, cloud services, or that Sharepoint shit. I wonder how many companies would have their secrets exposed if that data was ever stolen from the MS servers?

It is BEYOND time to switch to Linux

Its either that or Hey. Weirdly, hey is my more formal greeting I use on the corpos at work. Yo is for people I’m cool with.

Nothing more specific than just the learning curve. Having to use the terminal, learn commands, etc. Just basic program installation requires me to look up how to do it. I’m currently learning via my steamdeck too, so cumbersome typing doesnt help matters, but I plan on installing on a desktop PC so I can experiment more easily. Picking a distro can be complicated too - I think I just want to use the same as what’s on the Steamdeck but I need to do research to figure out if I should. That research alone is a bit of the pain in the ass. I can do it, but I needed to be motivated but corporate bullshit to actually do it.

Learning Linux is a pain in the ass. The line is where Windows becomes less and less convenient until it is more of a pain in the ass than Linux. It’s a blurry line for some people, but for me the combination of hiding settings so I need to enter the fucking registry to change them and then serving me pop up ads on my own machine crossed the line.

But fucking hell learning linux is still a pain in the ass.

SLAM!

It absolutely is a valid business strategy, Apple has been winning with this strategy for like 15-20 years now. Their shit IS Fisher Price computers and Fisher Price phones and ALWAYS HAS BEEN. Most people are fucking dumb and it is designed specifically for them. So for the love of god go buy something else. Please. I’m begging you and everyone else who thinks they are smart - STOP BUYING APPLE STUFF! Like holy shit do something inconvenient for once

Yo you and everyone else replying to me need to slow down and read carefully. I’m telling you you cant change it SO GO BUY SOMETHING ELSE. Holy fuck, the shit I said above is not a compliment to apple. If you don’t get that then you are Apple’s target audience cause goddamn ya fuckin need stupid proofing.

Maybe it will help you be less pissy about something you cant change. Accept the fact that Apple will never change due to this fundamental business strategy and move on to a company that doesnt rely on babying their mindless customers. Or I dunno, fuck it, keep pissing in the wind and crying about smelling bad.
