image/svg+xml Hello! I'm your friendly,slightly threatening Appleassociate! How can Ihelp you today! Uh... can Iget a new Mac? Of course! I have just thething! How do you feel about theMacbook Ultimate Pro BleedingEdge Canary Better Than AServer Cluster Edition? Fifteenthousand bigahertzand a quadmilliondodecabytes of RAM! Uhhh... sure.What softwarecomes with it? How about twoquadmillion dodecabytesof RAM? That's a steal, eh? Ok, sounds, good,but what can Iinstall on it? Four quadmillion! And I'llthrow in a free hyperfluxpneumatic quantumspace loop! Can I evenchange the desktopbackground??? Ma'am, you reallydo drive a hard bargain.Fine. Yes. You can changethe desktop background. So...what aboutLinux? EAEAEEAEAEA!!!! Not...the "L"word!!!!!! I thoughtthat was"Lenovo". EAEAEAEAEAEAEAEA!!!!!!

I thought there was no greater hatred than Microsoft until I was working on a web job for a friend and discovered that for 'performance reasons' iOS browsers (not just Safari, literally every browser on iOS!) don't support background-position: fixed;. I was talking about Apple to an advocate a while back and they mentioned 'right to repair'. Well, another Apple devotee I know recently informed me that the new Macs are super cool - despite the fact that they are desktop computers in which you can't even install new RAM, much less replace a fan or add more storage. How Apple is still in business I don't know.
