       Apple Macintosh was much cheaper than Xerox Star. Nowadays, I can't find Macbook do anything interesting than other computers. MacBook isn't even cheap.

       @bencman I'd instead buy Acer with pre-installed GNU/Linux.

       @veer66  guys like us don't need a preinstalled os. We setup the distribution of our choice and the programs and desktop environments that feed our needs the most. That's the Linux way.  That's freedom.

       @bencman  I somewhat don't like this kind of freedom when I have to build RTL8821CE manually. 😅

       @bencman I want to train unsupervised machine translation, fix my Rust programs, make a weather station, adjust screen contrast on X11 on NetBSD. 😭In reality, I'm fixing my academic writing and posting here. 😛
