[16:22:02] superkuh/rizon Apple silicon is $1000 for a 2TB nvme SSD.

[16:22:09] superkuh/rizon Literally.

[16:22:21] superkuh/rizon For the SSD alone.

[16:22:30] superkuh/rizon And you need a second apple silicon computer to be able to install it.

[16:23:24] superkuh/rizon ref: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MR393AM/A/apple-2tb-ssd-upgrade-kit-for-mac-pro

[16:24:02] superkuh/rizon Oh shit. I thought you were joking at the wheels.

[16:24:06] superkuh/rizon That's incredible.

[16:24:29] superkuh/rizon Fucking apple. Wow.

[16:25:42] superkuh/rizon And they're still selling laptops with 8GB of ram. :|

[16:26:03] superkuh/rizon 8GB un-upgradable in 2023.

[16:26:49] superkuh/rizon It'd be funny if I didn't end up having to support non-technical users who buy apple crap and then are confused they can't even run Adobe Creative Suite on their new laptop due to it eating all the RAM.

[16:27:32] superkuh/rizon Yes they are.

[16:27:49] superkuh/rizon I'm not giving hypotheticals here.

[18:19:00] superkuh/rizon It's incredible how much less functional Gtk has become over the last 10 years. Look at this: http://a.superkuh.com/Gtk4in2023-vs-Gtk3in2010.png (gtk4 file chooser errors out when you paste in file paths)

[18:20:38] superkuh/rizon Yep.

[18:21:21] superkuh/rizon gtk file chooser code is spaghetti and no one wants to touch it.

[18:21:32] superkuh/rizon h4, nope, real IDE floppy drive.

[18:21:48] superkuh/rizon I am typing from the bottom computer in the screenshot.

[18:22:15] superkuh/rizon Yeah. I thought that was odd.

[18:22:30] superkuh/rizon Nope. That's some other dude's screenshot from the gtk issue I finally got them to open today.

[18:22:39] superkuh/rizon After literally 4 years of reporting the bug.

[18:22:50] superkuh/rizon Never give up! Never surrender!

[18:22:53] superkuh/rizon /etc

[20:04:37] superkuh/rizon "PROPER: Re-release when the previous one had technical flaws. CDx: Multiple discs must be labeled in each folder. CD1, CD2, and on. REPACK: Re-release due to packing issues. RERIP: Re-release due to ripping issues. iNTERNAL: (1st lowercase is not a typo) Usually used by groups to avoid dupes. There are trading limitations for this releases. "

[20:05:21] superkuh/rizon So I assume this means the streams weren't the most compatible they could be within whatever container it shipped.
