>Great durability: magnesium roll cage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop
>Easy to repair (most models), upgrade & maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model, spare parts easy & cheap to obtain
>Excellent Linux & *BSD support

Ok i'll bite: It does, you have a fuckload of tools at your disposal (conf hardening via partitioning, groups, kernel arguments and modules, policykit, dbus policies, firewall profiles, tomoyo/apparmor/selinux, firejail, third part demons like usbguard, etc...), just use them. Retard.

Not nearly the same thing lmfao. MacOS "SIP" is also known as "rootless" mode, which is a much better name because it explains what it actually does. It restricts the root account to the point it can't do shit. Can't change system files, can't debug system processes, can't load/unload kernel extensions, can't use library preloading to code inject. The whole of /usr (and other system directories) becomes read-only permanently and there's no way to remount it as read/write while the OS is running. The only way to disable SIP is to reboot to recovery mode, to prevent someone from compromising root account and just disabling it.

Meanwhile on nearly every Linux distro, root can modify system directories like /bin and /usr, load arbitrary kernel modules, read/write kernel memory, or just kexec and replace the entire kernel. What a shitshow. No wonder no one takes that clown OS as a desktop seriously.

Radeon is doing okay. You're only looking and consumer GPU market and even that market isn't too bad. The MI355X sold well because it's faster in some scenarios, particularly in scientific studies. This drop in the market has to do with AI.

There's a few around but everything is soldiered down/glued together, picrel is the closest thing to a modern netbook (and has really great battery life). Shame it only has 32 GB of storage and is built like shit.

I have one of these little guys and it's easily my favorite computer. Right now I have NetBSD running on it (I wanted OpenBSD but the wi-fi driver is GPL'd and nobody cares 15 years later) but before I was running Void Linux.
The main issue I have with it is that I can't post here! Fucking Cloudflare's fucking stupid proof of work turnstile shits itself on anything below, like, 1.5 ghz. (I know because I've had this problem with Arm SBCs too.) Still runs a compiler and Emacs fine though, and you can even watch Youtube with yt-dl and mpv.

I'm able to post on a 1.2ghz pentium m by minimizing the browser window while the cloudflare check is running. I wait several seconds and then it passes when I pull the window back up.

found out half a week ago that it's apparently a hold over from older systems (I think X11), something about the "primary selection clipboard"

because it literally didn't support them early on. support was added in linux 5.0 iirc. before then the only way to have a swapfile on btrfs was using a loop device, which has reduced performance

Jesus. Is that still shaping perceptions of modern Linux? Stuff THAT old? No wonder people still get told to use Mint, or that they can't use their NTFS games drive with Proton.
>>
>>106507902
it's more common than you think, first impressions are huge, especially with people who don't actually regularly use the software in question. they hear something negative or just an apparent fact about it, and it just never gets updated in their mind.
this perhaps happens more often seen in linux-related stuff likely because fewer people here either use linux or use it enough to keep up with changes
>>
>>106507571
>>106507652
it's an X thing, highlight+mouse2 is primary selection, while ctrl+c/ctrl+v is the clipboard. there's also a third "secondary selection", but it's rarely used
