"Most companies still do not publish Linux builds for creative software"

There, fixed it for you.

It's not like Linux is the blocker here.

Doesn't matter, the end result is the same.

This used to be the case but looking at Macbooks now they are not much more expensive than a Windows laptop you would actually want to buy. And since they will still have some residual value 5 years from now i think it's about even.

> And since they will still have some residual value 5 years from now.

I dont know any private person in my circle that actually sold their laptop until it wasnt broken or so painfully old that the used value was mostly for spare parts. That may change a bit with the skyrocketing pc part prices but still.

This used to be case before the M series. Now each year a new M processor gets released that are "cheaper" than the previous generation MAC - better processor, more RAM and more storage for similar price than last year model. This impacted their price in used market.

My main computer is a 2020 m1 Mac. It handles everything I throw at it. I predict I’ll upgrade in maybe 4-5 years.

are you a creative professional? because I see that argument quite often as if people use Adobe CS daily, and then its mostly people who do basic stuff (that photopea or gimp can handle fine), but they like to feel "pro" by launching their pirated version of photoshop.

I use krita, adobe substance 2024, blender and whatever other software. Professionally.

When I hear these arguments I just think these people are simply chained.

Gimp is ass, what takes me 5 minutes in Photoshop needs an hour in GIMP. Also I edit photos occasionally in lightroom. I actually daily Linux, but I still have to dual boot for gaming and Adobe.

Also Linux isn't flawless either, Fedora broke sleep on my full AMD PC since like a month now and no agent could successfully debug it.

feel free to link a windows computer (pre-built or parts, whatever you want) that outperforms the m4 mac mini while costing either the same or less

Neither really worked for me on fedora. Ratbag can't see the mx master 3s and solar couldn't remap anything.

Did you install the Solaar udev rules?

There's strong political backing for it now.

So this turns mcps into cli based clients?

Yes!

Because i can do it on the phone.

If only they could figure out how to fiz the hallucination issues in gemini models...

Actually synthetic training dats is better, thats why the new models are all better at design.

If synthetic data is so much better then what are AI crawlers still DDOSing everyone for? Are they stupid?

Mostly. I had the "AI bot tsunami" problem on my own personal site and blocked a bunch of bot user agents in robots.txt. Most of them were from companies I had never heard of before. The only big AI name I recognized was GPTBot from OpenAI.

Just wait for the new OEM to drop their phones with GrapheneOS support. Pixel hardware is garbage tier.
