Corruption, American style. Americans love their elaborate and borderline-tiring corruption schemes and PR propaganda.

Also depends on your taste in gaming. More niche games and some retro games can be really hit or miss. But I do agree that in the last ~5 years there has been a revolution in gaming on Linux.

I still have to move away from Windows (by far the biggest issue due to line of business applications and gaming) and Android with Google.

I have experience with Linux via a headless Raspberry Pi home server, but desktop/laptop is whole different level of complexity.

Let’s just hope that this has a noticeable impact on the hyperscale CSPs bottom lines in 4-6 quarters. Europe has a very a very bad habit of kicking the can down the road and not rocking the boat. Now is not the time for such meekness.

If you don’t live in the US, you’re asking for trouble if you use American tech. Doesn’t matter if the provider is sane or not, they are still subject to the whims of a proto-facist regime. But even beyond the regime, the American business community is extremely corrupt. They might not see it as corruption (corruption is what happens in some shithole), but that’s just an excuse.

And with all due respect to sane Americans, unless there is a massive change in their risk tolerance, it is unlikely there will be any movement away from proto-facism in the short to medium term.

Things aren’t going to magically sort themselves out.

Do you not understand the difference between a press release and an article? Are you being serious? The authors literally have apple email accounts.

How is what I said a strawman? What exactly am I “strawmanning”; could you please be clear and specific on this?

There is no bias. This is common sense. Corporate messaging around sustainability (and there are different brands of this) by definition cannot be trusted.

Can you show me how they define “gross emissions - Manufacturing (purchased goods and services)”, surely if they added it in their emissions table and it’s really the only piece that’s important (because it ties back to the “60% of 2015 claim”, everything else in the press release is fluff), you should be able to find the definition as per Apple?

This is not an article, this is a press release. It is written by Apple employees.

I didn’t say they were lying. If anything the much more likely scenario is that it is framed in a duplicitous manner but without explicitly lying (in the strict pedantic sense).

Here is a simple question one for you. Find me where Apple provides a clear explanation of their definition of “gross emissions - Manufacturing (purchased goods and services)”; this is the line item that’s key to their press release, everything else is fluff and holds no value when it comes to the bigger picture.

Keep in mind, there is a very large probability that much of the content in the press release is misleading and de facto untrue.

Why would you ever take a corporate press release at face value?

PaintDotNet is perfect if you only need some commonly used “pro” features. It’s a relatively easy transition from paint.

OpenAI x Digg 2.0 is a bit too unwieldy so how about OpenDiggAI?

This is pretty cool, although it makes me feel old.

I can’t imagine anyone younger than 30 would even get what this article is about.
