Love that Apple is promoting Apple Intelligence for school. Also love that they have co-opted "AI" as "Apple Intelligence". By love I actually mean hate. Disgraceful. I've never felt so stupid for owning a Mac Mini M2. If I could make it into a full-fledged Linux box, I would, and I can assure you that AI will NEVER be on it...

@raccoon I bought it for my Mom, but she never took to it. Yeah, I'll probably try to sell it. Still, great hardware...

@raccoon Thanks, buddy! I have plenty of computers, and I actually liked the Mac until they started pushing AI like Microsoft. I'm still deciding what my best move is. I may donate it...

@raccoon Sure thing! I can't afford to donate either, but I despise the economy of selling things. I'd rather donate it to teach children or something like that...

@wendigo@metalhead.club I think donating macs to teach kids would lock them into that ecosystem, more of a curse than a blessing I fear.

@raccoon Microsoft didn't do that for me. Some will be happy with it. Some will explore. I don't really see a downside as long as learning is involved.
