It's still novel. Windows 7 did not use completely translucent UIs, only borders and title bars, content areas were opaque. The closest thing to fully translucent UIs was definitely apple's own work in iOS 7. Apple moved away from this, the iOS 18 control center has significant darkening under each control and the Notification Center is very dark + blurs lockscreen wallpaper instead of content underneath.

tl:dr; it's both

I hate blur so much bros

when will designers get heads out of their assess and go back to something that resembles utility, usability and readability. At least flatshit had to be implemented for technology and practical reasons, since skeumorphism didn't scale well to different DPI, screen sizes and surfaces and could be more easily be translated to high contrast for visually impaired when done right.

On a steelcase cobi, but I want a leap v2. ebay has some but they are still pricey.
Used the cobi for a good five years now, and the rubber on the arm rests is starting to break.
neat chair honestly, flexible backing, minimal design, and it rocks, just not that ergonomic for long sessions.

Holy shit, there's a FOSS reverse engineered operating system based on windows when it was good (up through 7). This is the perfect solution, nobody has to use winjeet 10 and nobody has to use linux. Why isn't anyone talking about this? It's been under steady development so it's likely going to be finished soon.

Yeah, the whole reactos thing seems like some retarded university research project not intended for real world usage.
Despite being based in Russia they feel the need to follow American copyrights. They basically don't know what the fuck they're doing and it's a dead, irrelevant project. I don't think it even works on real hardware.

It is much nicer. I've had it spun up projects for me very quickly. If the project is small and simple it can slam dunk. Evem. Better if you skeleton out your architecture first.

However if the project is sufficiently large or complex it's still retarded. I had it try and do disassembly ASM docs of an NES game. It told me it was done 6 times when it wasn't. Then the same thing when porting to C. I got it to finally render the main menu of a game with the right palette, sprites, and text. It couldn't get the cursor or music right though

Linus torvalds bought macbooks for his kids (he installed linux) and he even uses an m series macbook running Linux. The hardware is good, the software is just aids.

>The hardware is good
It's not really distinguishable from any other high end laptop chipset. What matters is software.
>Muh battery life
Yeah a 70Wh battery and hyper aggressive power management software will do that.
If by hardware you mean that fat fucking battery, sure. The actual silicon isn't special though.
>Muh less heat
Probably the one real advantage the hardware has, especially for a laptop, so I'll grant you this one too.

>Please, convince me not to.
If it's newer than an M2 it's not going to work very well, if at all.
It's also based on Fedora, so it's really just going to be even shittier than MacOS.
GPU drivers work, but suck because Apple's hardware isn't designed for Kronos APIs.

Personally;
>Better documentation (man pages actually exist)
>Better kernel and the concept of base system (linux is terrible in both respects)
>Better support for foreign software/more foreign users/developers (mostly Japanese don't really care about any other non-English outsiders)
>Community consists of actual developers instead of LARPing faggots (NetBSD and OpenBSD)
>Tools are better for managing the system (sysctl, ifconfig vs. ip, coreutils are much better etc.)
>No constant churn of BS re-writes of existing software shoved in as default with zero testing only to be quickly replaced again in a couple of years. The stuff I used and learned in mid-90s is the stuff we're still using today
>Much much higher quality community to interact with IRL at hackerthons and cons
>No constant licensing autism
>No idol worship (even Theo gets called a faggot on a daily basis)
>better firewall/networking tools (pf is amazing and I refuse to use anything else these days)
>All the Win32/NT/POSIX software I need just werks
>Ports are much higher quality and better integrated with the rest of the system

What are Japanese users doing with BSD? What hardware are they running? Are they mostly sysadmins or programmers? What explains their being so many of them in say NetBSD? Can you elaborate on BSD ports vs Portage? Are you saying every BSD ports tree is superior? Isn't Portage more granular with USE flags? What makes Xenocara special? Isn't it just a few security patches?

From August last year: https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2025/08/77-malicious-apps-removed-from-google-play-store

Note: REMOVED, but that doesn't mean the Play Store doesn't have malware apps that Google has yet to catch.

The problem with the Play store is that outside of the big apps (WhatsApp, Discord, Facebook, Twitter, blah blah blah... you get the point) you're literally rolling the dice on smaller apps. IF you can even find them. There is so much shit on the Play Store now that it's impossible to know if you want an application or not and Google has made the discovery EVEN FUCKING WORSE in the attempt to have you check the store daily.
