  • Yesterday evening I unceremoniously and sadly deleted, one by one, every app every photo every video and every document - all data from icloud - using a lovely pink iPad Mini.

    The day before was the same, for several iphones, then a purged Apple Watch too. The laptops were before, long ago. My favorite was the 1Ghz Titanium G4 PowerBook - I'll always miss that perfection.

    So, goodbye to modern Apple Inc. I loved your ways and means, your engineering prowess, industrial design, and the inspiration in every direction offered over so many decades.

    I'm keeping the water-cooled Quad Core G5 PowerMac (PPC64 970MP A1177). You can attempt to pry it from my cold dead hands alongside a GP101... but please do not touch that one last, beautiful, and forever best example of IBM + Apple innovation - before Apple leadership sold out to Intel, pushed upon every emacs user the worthless Touchbar, and the scissor-chicklet keyboards with a lawsuit. But never forget Liquidass, crowning achievement and example of Apple's downfall.

    How sad; sorry about your demise, Apple. I'll miss who you once were.

    @winterschon I kinda get it in a way, but what is your official successor? I have to work on Windows 11 on my work environment, and it's really, really bad.

    I think it enshittificated itself more than Apple.

    So I'm genuinely curious, what you're using now?

    @docower I'm using a combination of FreeBSD, Gentoo LLVM/Clang (mostly avoiding gnu/gcc), and variations on Illumos.

    There are edge cases, (Rocky / RHEL / OLE) for specific enterprise systems, and I know those inside and out - but gosh, sysD sure creates unnecessary headaches.

    Win11 is somewhat like mental torture, though I hear it crashes less than Vista, but not as stable as Win2K Pro. MS could make a great OS, they simply choose not to... it's a bit of a paradox.
