@ASPIRIN Раньше в Mac OS X было встроенное увеличение через Control+колёсико. Приблизил, поиграл с дивана, вернул как было. Сейчас так нельзя?

@thor I don't "enjoy" the fixing my computer part, but it's not that hard for me either — still better than using the product I hate with my guts and not being able to do something about it.

@thor That was what I was trying achieve by switching to Macs in early 2000s. But the UI got really bad. It might have looked cool on a 15" laptop screen, but on my Mac Pro with 2 30" displays it just made my eyes hurt. Yes, I could tweak it, but it's the same nerdy stuff I was trying go avoid.
It got better with 10.12, but I just don't want to invest in their hardware anymore, they might go for some "fresh modern look" again, I don't trust them anymore.

@thor Yes, having a Linux-based system as your daily driver requires some maintenance effort, but it least it looks and functions almost the same way after updates. And you don't have to use something that has a completely different look and feel because software that you're comfortable with is no longer updated. Firefox being a notable exception, but you can fix it with userChrome.css.
If Apple's and Microsoft's goal was keeping me hooked by software updates, they've failed miserably.

@thor Win 10 was way worse, but still usable, I've had a Lumia 950 XL, an Xbox, I had a couple of Windows licenses, Office 365 subscription, Xbox Live subscription… I was thinking of getting a Surface. But then they decided to give up on Windows 10 Mobile and Windows 11 brought back that horrible XP-like Start Menu and I said: "Oh, fuck it! I'm done with this",— now I'm back to Linux, running #VoidLinux on old hardware. If I need new hardware, I'd probably get something by Purism or System '76.

@thor I actually stopped using Apple products because the software was bad. Mac OS X got better up to 10.4 then it started steadily rolling downhill. It was bearable till 10.9, but then I was like: "What's this?! It looks horrible! Fuck it, I'm out of here!" With iOS that happened even earlier. Android was always a no-go for me, so I've tried Windows Phone 7 based phone. Battery life was bad, but I liked the tiles, so when Windows 8 came out I've tried it on both phone and computer.

@thor Who needs the battery icon anyway? What else could a number in the corner of the phone screen mean, how much mana you have left? 🤷

@nerdtronics@mstdn.starnix.network …and all the dependencies! And fscking node.js it uses for its build system 😫

@kaia What's in the article? SSDs consume less power, it doesn't make any sense!

>it uses React
This is usually as far as I go. Element is the only exception that comes to mind. I have to admit, it's pretty responsive for a React webapp 😅

@fugger There actually is 😆
The measure of fertility is called semen quality I think. Age and diet might seriously affect that.

> It's trump's fault
Not my words! It was Trump's MISTAKE to ignore it, not Trump's FAULT😫

@MischievousTomato
I didn't get vaxxed too and didn't get infected, but not because COVID isn't real, but because I am thorough at disinfecting things and because I still use a fucking FFP3 respirator when I go outside.
Obese guys/gals or not, elderly people or not — it was shortsighted for a politician to dismiss the issue of this magnitude — that is the topic, not the COVID itself — we can see the impact of it now. It IS real.
@fugger @iska@mstdn.starnix.network @straw

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network I brought it up as an example of Trump not acknowledging the issue, I don't want to discuss how deadly C19 is. I didn't care about bird or swine flu when those were hot topic, but I was terrified when I read news from China early that year — it was just screaming global trouble. But Trump just tried to pull the "maybe if I ignore it it will just go away" act. He did the "Chinese virus" act after that. True, China's bad, but he was in control and had to act, not blame others
@fugger @straw

@fugger
Let us not even delve into that. COVID is real, COVID is deadly. Rest of the world didn't handle it well too. But this clearly was a mistake and he acknowledged that by introducing Operation Warp Speed precisely because it was a mistake, not because he became worried about the elderly all of a sudden, or fat people, or whoever.
