Does sanitizer work instead

- Macos as King deeply offends me in a way I didn't think possible.
  
  That's just some dude that bought a crown.
  
  Fixed it
  
  Should be SunOS
  
  I dunno. It does seem accurate to me. Monarchies throughout history were just people who were given a mandate by their diety to rule and had the resources to pay a strong enough army to "correct" anyone who suggested otherwise.

I feel like this isn't 100% accurate, so I fixed it.
- Wow, you even corrected the fonts. Splendid work!
- If I'm shaking my own hand on this, do I wash them twice?
  
  Just keep scrubbing until your hands aren't touching a Mac user.
- Okay but I use both
  
  You must wash your hands often.
- You can't wash off what is on MacOS hands
- True. Mac users couldn't handle that much glory on their hands.
  
  What if I use both 🙃

Some of these are funny and make me laugh but I really hate that this seems to be the Linux identity.
Shitting on Windows and it's users got old years ago. I see one of these every few days, or I see it in the comments attacking other users, it's just miserable and sad after a while.
Like we get it, windows bad, lets move on.
- Eh, it's all heretics all the way down.
  Pick a preference. Go on. Any preference at all. Coffee? Great! All the coffee snobs agree that Starbucks is shit coffee. Then the pour-over gals and the espresso makers go home and wash their hands. Then the 40/60 pour-over gals meet with the 30/70 pour-over guys and agree that the espresso makers suck; then THEY go home and wash their hands. Then the 30/70 Japanese filter guys meet with the 30/70 German filter guys and agree that the 40/60 gals stink, and so on ad nauseum.
  No group hates outsiders more than they hate heretics within their own group.
  
  I just gotta say, I'm glad I don't know what all that coffee terminology is, I'm better off not knowing.

- Shitting on Windows and it's users got old years ago
  It was already old back in the 90s when people were writing it as "Windoze" and writing Micro$oft with a dollar sign.
- Nvm
- Just a joke bro
  Coming from windows xp was the bomb and used 7 for 6 years
  
  I know, nothing wrong with the joke per se, it's just the repetitiveness of the shitting on Windows thing. Lately I've been thinking of unsubbing to these communities because of it.

Soap is an effective sanitizer
- I prefer Rest or Corba.
  
  you gonna need some bleach for REST though

macOS is UNIX. If your workflow is heavy on the command line, it feels pretty similar to Linux, which is no surprise. The userspace is definitely different (it's not GNU) but if you ssh into a macOS box, you should feel pretty much at home.
I feel like a lot of these flame wars are basically just "I like Y GUI better." Which is one of the great things about Linux of course, that I can run i3 and you can run Plasma. For me, having a more-or-less unified (command line) interface across my Linux laptop, my various home lab SBCs, my VPS, and my work laptop is pretty nice.
(And yes. I would much, much, much prefer i3 to yabai on macOS.)
- macOS: there are very few issues, but when you encounter one, it’s impossible to fix
  Linux: there are lots of issues, and but they are all fixable, but each fix might be a rabbit hole of figuring out how to compile someone’s GitHub project they seemingly abandoned 4 years ago.
  
  I think Darwin is still open source, and WebKit is still open source.
- It's technically Unix, but with randomised directories, with illegible logs, with a lot of the openness taken out and replaced by Apple's "our way or the highway". It's Unix for people who didn't want Unix anyway.
  
  Word on the street is that GNU’s not Unix.
  
  Being open has nothing to do with Unix. It was a proprietary OS and most of its descendants are still proprietary.
- Mac is part the OS, part walled garden experience, and part overpriced, less-upgradable hardware. Plus an overall design approach that values simplicity over configurability while I prefer the opposite.
- If your workflow is heavy on the command-line you'd probably get more value out of Windows with WSL than you would from MacOS... At least then it's Linux everywhere rather than having to remember the differences between GNU coreutils and MacOS coreutils.
  
  Sure, but you can also brew install coreutils on macOS.
  My point is only that macOS is UNIX. Linux looks a whole lot like UNIX**. But no matter how much you squint, Windows isn't UNIX. Which is completely fine, and everyone is entitled to prefer whatever OS they choose. For me personally, macOS feels familiar. I will always choose Linux if I have the choice, but barring that, I'll take an OS where I can rsync over my .zshrc and .vimrc with minimal shenanigans.
  **And in some cases is UNIX --- EulerOS, a Linux distro, was UNIX-certified.

I'm a windows user and agree that windows is shit

I just hate myself: I‘m using a Linux Workstation with Job specific Windows VMs. Sometimes I even WOL my Workstation, connect my MacBook via VNC and look up stuff in Windows…
macOS/Linux pretty much feels the same. Windows constantly bothered me with issues…

Repost this again please
- First time I’m seeing it.
  
  Welcome to the Internet

I mean, Windows is the weird one of the three.

We all know Linux users most likely have some greasy, Cheeto dust-covered fingers.

I prefer windows than Mac. At least windows and Linux UIs use some kind of similar pattern. Mac is too expensive and much more close than windows.
Games? Mac is a joke. Personalization? Mac is a joke Price? Lmao
Windows is dog water but is always my second option, at least I can use some Linux with wsl and dont have to relearn how to type.
- Not a fan of Apple, but I have a work M1 MacBook that I use as my personal laptop, and it actually runs games really well. Even most games that aren't made for Mac will run with the GPT.
  
  Eh, the anti-Mac copy has been out of date for years now. Heck you can score an M1 for $300 — so I don’t even buy the “expensive” stuff anymore.
- Mac is too expensive
  Have you ever paid for a copy of Windows? You know you should, right?
  If you’re talking about hardware instead, Mac computers are expensive but when it comes to quality the vast majority of PC laptops feel like fucking toys compared to them. When I see a hp or dell laptops Im repulsed (not talking about super duper premium lines which are hit and miss at best). I personally use an M1 macbook pro and I love the computer, the OS is starting to bother me though and I really wish Apple weren’t dicks and would make Linux run on the M cpus themselves.
  
  I think they won't implement the linux driver because that means they will need to put their driver code in the kernel, hence needing to open source their driver.
  
  My current and all-time favorite laptop is an older MacBook Air (Intel) running Arch Linux. The quality of Apple hardware combined with Linux is unbeatable. I can't wait until we get a reliable Linux distro that runs on Apple silicon.
- I personally feel like I can easier work with macos when I dont have windows at hand. In general I'm using Macos even fewer but its nice to have all Unix tools at hand. With brew its also seamless to install new stuff. Windows isn't even unix...
- Yeah, for me it's Linux -> Windows -> macOS
  
  For me it's just Linux is better than Windows. Mac isn't even a consideration.

- I'd argue that Apple hardware is their greatest strength. It's just hard to see that when their anti-consumer behavior and proprietary software gets in the way. If their laptops were able to run fully on free software without compromise, I'd have no problem buying their stuff.
- There are many qualms to have with it as an OS
  It demands both a dock and a title bar, a huge waste of vertical space on screens that are vertically limited
  There's no way of globally enabling hidden files and folders (you can do it for finder through the terminal, but can't do it for the file picker windows)
  It doesn't support multi-stream transport, so despite being all about simplicity you cannot display more than two display port screens over a thunderbolt connection, whereas windows can do 4.
  It doesn't support sub pixel rendering, making text look blurry AF on 1080p and any other screens that aren't super high res
- MacOS has its oddities though. Some of its coreutils aren't quite BSD but they're not quite GNU either, so sometimes scripts have to either special-case MacOS or ensure they use options that only work across GNU, BSD and MacOS. This is an example of one I had to fix a few years back: https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/issues/1984

I use both, which is why I never touch myself🧐

I run linux and use it every day... from the windows command line.

MacOS < Windows < Linux

On a side tangent: Sanitizer sometimes is better than soap & water. But soap and water almost always has your back.
So in the context of this meme, Unless Apple comes up with a killer operating system version. Probably one with ZFS/BTRFS hybrid.
- Probably one with ZFS/BTRFS hybrid.
  It's not as advanced, but APFS (the standard file system in MacOS) does support a few advanced features, like copy-on-write, snapshots, sparse files, and transparent encryption.

Sanitizer does work but its overuse is also much more prone to chemical burning your skin than a gentle oil based soap.
Alcohol's boiling point is quite low and it also lowers the boiling point of any moistures it mixes with.

You can be certain those Mac users are doing the same since they don't want to be associated with you nerds.
- Or some people are just friends even with different OSes :>

Everytime I see this meme it annoys me. Mac is FAR WORSE than Windows, and why Windows has gotten more shit overtime is in large part because they're trying to get a piece of Apples Pie
- I find Mac to be much better than Windows in my two main use cases:
  My work laptop. It's a unix-like OS that I can use as an SSH terminal to my Linux dev box without having to setup any other dependencies. Since I do all of my development in (neo)vim and just otherwise need a browser and container runtime, there's less that I have to be bothered with. This is particularly a boon to me as I haven't used anything but Linux on my personal machines in over a decade now.
  My wife's work machine. Windows updates are complete and total garbage. It's quite apparent that they don't care about outages and end-user impacts. After a particularly terrible update Tuesday, she had a remote session with a client and none of her software or hardware performed as it had just the day before. Replaced with a MacMini and there have been 0 problems since. I don't like the walled garden approach but, for work machines, it's a lot better than the MS approach.
  
  WSL isn't Unix like, it is Unix.
- macOS is far from perfect, yes. But at least it’s useable. Windows is a shit hole in comparison. Hasn’t been great since 7. Windows' only redeeming qualities are window management and the vast software library that dates back to the dawn of time itself.
  
  MacOS is terrible, it can't render text on 1080p screens, it can't output to more than one monitor over thunderbolt, it demands a dock and title bar, taking up limited vertical space.
  Windows does everything MacOS does but better and without being a patronizing locked down poc. I mean try and enable seeing hidden files globally, impossible.

Honestly if I could put my own SSDs in MacBooks I would be very interested in them, especially as the Asahi project gets better. But I have my doubts that will ever happen.
- But its always gonna be closed

Lol wtf. I use Mac dude

Even implying mac is better is utter lunacy. I feel like Linux users are seriously out of touch sometimes.
- It's all subjective. What do you want the computer for?
  Games? Mac isn't a great choice.
  CLI-centric work over ssh? Windows is pretty terrible.
  I'm in the second category. I have consoles and a Steam Deck for games, so, standalone PC is a waste for that purpose. I work on code and tools that are meant exclusively for running on Linux and haven't had a Windows machine in over a decade. Working on Windows would require that I learn the OS just for that and I really don't want to. Plus, the company likes the support contracts.
