alansuspect@aussie.zoneto Linux@programming.dev•I switched from macos to Linux because it can't stop babying users and being unnecessarily restrictive7·1 month agoI don’t like Apple, but I like Macs. Obviously macos is better than Windows, but it’s also Linux without the time spent figuring out why something isn’t working.
I say that as someone who’s had a go with Linux a lot over the years, but for a daily work machine I need the reliability.
They can piss off with their iClouds and iOS stuff though.
alansuspect@aussie.zoneto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts?1·1 month agoIts not FOSS but if you need a work alterative to GIMP I use Photopea a lot. Works as a PWA too.
I’ve been using design software for over 25 years; Photoshop has been there for the majority but I’ve often tried coming back to GIMP here and there, but it’s never grabbed me in a useable way.
alansuspect@aussie.zoneto Television@lemm.ee•What TV show were you highly excited for, but ended up quickly disappointing you?English21·2 months agoIt’s funny, I did decide to read the books before watching the show. I’m about 6 episodes in and think it’s very good. I think they actually improved the books in many ways.
I don’t know if people just have a nostalgia for something they haven’t read in a long time (sorry not having a go at you!) or they genuinely like some really not-great aspects of the books that are a victim of their time.
The fact they changed a bunch of characters genders actually works - too many crusty old white (assuming) dudes that doesn’t work nowadays. Making Gaal a more rounded character to tell a story they apparently write in the book makes a lot more sense.

I don’t like pickles as slices, but I dice them up small in my burger sauce and they work nicely.
I’ve been using cal.com for a while and it’s pretty good. I think you can self host it too.

alansuspect@aussie.zoneto Politics@beehaw.org•What Is the Third Term Project? Pro-Trump Group Bids to Change Constitution4·3 months agoThe difference is countries that vote for parties vs voting for an individual. I don’t know why anyone would think one person would have the best interests of the country at heart.
Yeah I’m an older millennial and there are things I don’t have in common with younger ones.
Kamala just slips in as a boomer technically, by like a year or something.
I thought millennials started at '82?
alansuspect@aussie.zonetoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•Why does one party keep interfering with voting?2·8 months agoWe call it a sausage sizzle (democracy sausage at voting time) and they’re delicious 🤤
alansuspect@aussie.zonetoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•Why does one party keep interfering with voting?16·8 months agoYep, and it’s compulsory voting, on a sensible day of the week and even pre-poll so you can just go in early if you want to. And sometimes there are sausages.

They can also easily change their pricing when there’s a higher demand or any other whim.
