My opinion is based on an older gentleman commiserating on how difficult it was for young impoverished students to pay for everything nowadays. I was in debt, and had at just that moment come out at the LGB soc. That person was my bank manager.

Subs that pay doms don't bother me at all.

Would you say that this was racist, or shouldn't have been performed?

Regarding the F16, Ukrainian pilots are going to start testing the Gripen as well, although that path is obviously far behind the F16s given the glacial pace of such developments...

That's a really interesting answer - it all makes sense that those things can be irritating, and also why I had no idea about them:

For years I have had my applications and windows (IDE, tabbed console, browser(s)) set up in fixed positions. I rarely switch between them in a way which isn't a keyboard shortcut (99% command-tab) or involves the mouse anyway (for testing, or video calls). I never normally move windows between screens or anything like that in my workflow.

In the good and very old days I literally just had emacs maximised and that was it, all day long 😇

I guess I got lucky in a sense - that not needing functionality meant I wasn't affected by it being missing, but it might partly be a positive side effect of desiring simplicity and less from the WM so I can focus on my own things.

It sucks completely if you try to use it in different way so if you don’t like magic mouse (which sucks) and don’t like using their laptop keyboard (which sucks) and touchpad you will not enjoy it.

This isn't true for me. I use the same (cheap Logitech) mouse with Win11, Linux, and my MBPs. What's meant to be the issue? It's just like every other setup I've used in the last 30 years.

I just got an M2 MBP. In my personal experience it is very much not "shit".

Expensive and a PITA to fix? Quite possibly.

I recently saw this: What are some great YouTube channels worth checking out? which indirectly answers your question I guess for the people that posted suggestions.

Mine were:

FWIW I've been a continuous Linux user for 30 years and prefer macOS as my "daily driver".

Always have a Linux server running though, so in a way I could be described as 50/50 I suppose.

I'd pass so hard. Thank goodness the only "interviews" I've ever needed in 30 years have been the polar opposite of this kind of cringe.

Windows 95 was dreadful.

Yes I am old and my knees do hurt, thank you.

And people who iterate over 3D space using firstDimensionIndex, secondDimensionIndex, and thirdDimensionIndex instead of x, y, z have no sense 😜
