Selling point of apple was always macos. You are free from Windows curse and still have all your favorite software. This is why they were getting away with selling their computers for obscene prices while removing and reselling things that should come with the device (like usb ports)

This is also why you can't officially install MacOS on anything other than apple product

You're trading privacy for utility. Same thing as with modern Windows iterations, except not really because Win11 is literally useless.

Super common, and nothing wrong with it. You have a small piece of logic equipment or such out in the field that needs local storage. What do you use, instead? Spinny disks and SSDs are too large. On-board storage is fine, but at that point why not make it a component that can be field removed, replaced, is standardized, and has good capacity? SD or MicroSD is perfect.

>>107606969
Yes, and since pSLC is less dense, there will be no speed penalty when you reshuffle to TLC even if it is on the same NAND. Use your fucking brain, this is literally grade school math we're talking about here.

>>107606993
I kinda blame youtube channels like Linus tech tips for spreading misinfo about different flash media to normies.
A MicroSD from a reputable brand will be just as reliable as an SSD from that same brand.
I guess you can also put blame on Amazon and Aliexpress for 2TB SD listings for $20 and retards falling for it.

There clearly is though. Users report speeds absolutely plummeting far below direct TLC write when dumping huge amounts of data.

No one except ASML could make a production scanner . Putting the light source in some research toy to get 1% yield at fuck all throughput doesn't do much good. The scanner had proven ability, the lightsource was a provable piece of shit.

If synchotron can be made to work, EUV fabs could have been designed around the DESY synchotron as their first production light source (it has the power required). Germany could have been where Taiwan is now. Going with US exploding tin was a terrible decision. Getting rid of the tin, is China's best chance to catch up ... it probably dragged down ASML and still does.

I'm not going back to googling/stack overflow, I can get answers on shit in 10 seconds instead of 10 minutes (or more). It's also pretty good at code review and refactoring some messy function another programmer made and I don't want to spend time reorganizing into something legible.

Not OP but matrix leaks tons of metadata and almost everything touches the matrix.org home server at some point. Not even mentioning the centralized identity server.

Anyone who is in control of these servers can gather a lot of data and build a pretty good profile on anyone using the network, even when not registered to the matrix.org server.

There is no proof of any backdoors though.

perhaps change the pkg source from quarterly to latest and upgrade them?
a one liner for freebsd <15:

>>107609385
openbsd is great
a lot of common stuff is included in the base system, if you were willing to migrate from whatever software you use now
it's become far easier to administrate in recent years
the only caveat is that you need to ensure what software you use is available; I have been using https://openbsd.app but OP mentions https://www.openports.pl as well

whats the difference between openbsd and freebsd and why openbsd > freebsd for your use?

and shouldnt most software "just werk" considering they have same unix base and the sockets in linux are the bsd sockets and so on, that doesnt most apps that compile on linux compile same on BSD too, at least that used to be the case

>>107610166
If there isn't a port to native OpenBSD just use vmm(4). You can run a Linux VM and whatever linux-only junk you need through that.

>>107610256
>whats the difference between openbsd and freebsd and why openbsd > freebsd for your use?
openbsd has theo making very opinionated decisions that are focused on security, this is a good thing ...
however the number of ports in openbsd is less than the number of ports in freebsd, in part due to the restrictive functionality of the underlying os

I have been running freebsd for servers primarily because administrating openbsd required more effort until recently (an example being that binary updates are a new thing)

if I am building a purpose built machine that exists for doing a single task like firewall, load balancing, web hosting, dns, etc.... I would choose openbsd; if I were going to build a single machine running those services, depending on resources available, I would begin to lean toward freebsd

freebsd has jails (if you aren't familiar, imagine if docker wasn't terrible) which share the host's resources
conversely openbsd has a well structured and easily managed hypervisor and they rely on it for segmentation as >>107610372 suggests

>and shouldnt most software "just werk" considering they have same unix base and the sockets in linux are the bsd sockets and so on, that doesnt most apps that compile on linux compile same on BSD too, at least that used to be the case
yes, sort of ... if something isn't in ports, I need to think long and hard how important it is for me to hassle with it
shell scripts are fine, I can change where bash and python are ... but actual compiled code? almost certainly I lack the fucks to give

>>107610490
alright thanks, from your implementation it seems that freebsd would be for me
oh right jails they're indeed useful and i do dislike docker it is a bad solution to the linux library versioning problem
for me i dont really care about any additional security though for my use its enough to vet the software i use and then simple chroot "jails" and running services on restricted user accounts is enough -> even if a service was compromised as long as the kernel and coreutils dont have some critical bug that allows privilege escalation, they shouldnt be able to escape the confines of their user accounts privileges
i think additional layers of security are only useful for people who need more granular restrictions like that for example multi-user systems where the user want to further restrict access what their processes can do, but if im the only person using my pc and users simply mean services and not other people i have all the control i need already

also i dont mind if something doesnt exist as package i can build it from source but good to hear that the package environment is healthy too, i wouldnt want to compile every single little tool from source

what are you talking about jews are absolutely in those positions and now increasingly jeets too
sure of course there are bunch of white race-traitors too who work with jews and against interest of their own kin but jews are absolutely over-represented in positions that are destroying our society, especially in media and banking and government
in fact UK already had a jeet prime minister and now its a jew, so even though the jeet flood had been going on for just little over a decade now they're already making headway
jews just started their infestation 100 years ago already, or depending how you look at it 2000 years ago just with many expulsions and pogroms and do-overs in between

Shitty bulbs. Shitty aincient wiring. Shitty ancient connectors.
Take your pick?
Something really wrong with the wiring in the place me mother was in last, that'd go through bulbs real rapid.
Typically, outside of a few clearly substandard cases, it'd only be experienced when some child is flicking the switch on/off rapid..

Both of those are demonstrably false.
