Just don't try plugging it into a Raspberry Pi 5.

No data loss, but won't work without changing your kernel. The other way around is much worse though

you can use an RPi5 to make a BTRFS drive which essentially only works on RPi5s.

I always prefer it without the dashes. And just add on HHMMSS while we're at it!

Dermal regenerator ain't gonna fix that burn amirite?

I think (?) it's generally true that the root user should never mess with users' files.

Imagine your home directory is shared across many systems on a network (my alma mater did this). It would be really bad if a sysadmin for alpha.university.edu removed a program, and suddenly your personal settings were removed from beta.university.edu

even though that computer still has the program.

This is one of the "UNIX on the desktop" issues

a lot is designed for a sysadmin/multiuser situation, and it has some gotchas when using it as a desktop machine (I'm used to/really appreciate the directory structure and settings management at this point, but it may take some getting used to).

Severe burn. Dermal regene...no, make that cranial regenerator, please...

I think he didn't really get that "Picard gets a neurological link to the Borg" == "not good"...

So I hate to tell you this, but I'm pretty sure Robert Picardo is a hologram...

They're just popular ETFs which contain a lot of $AAPL. I was just commenting that even if someone doesn't explicitly hold any $AAPL, if they own ETFs/mutual funds, they are likely exposed to $AAPL.

Doesn't apply to you though since you said you don't own any stock :)

...or $SPY, or $QQQ, or...

Posted this in another reply, but their entry level hardware has decreased in price over the years I think:

In 1999, the iBook was US$1599 (equivalent to $2925 in 2023) (source).

The 2010 13" Air was $1299 (more in today's $) (source).

The current 13" M3 Air is $1099 (source).

So yeah, they may well raise prices, but the cost of Apple's entry-level hardware has decreased in absolute terms over the years, and has decreased substantially if inflation is taken into account. Not to say the margins aren't higher (no idea about that), but it's interesting.
