I think I see what you’re saying. My gripe is that if I want a laptop/tablet with a great ARM chip, with long battery life, my options all force me to use one of two operating systems that I’d prefer not to use for ideological reasons. If I’m forced to use one, because I want an ARM device, I might as well use the one that has the best hardware. M5s are right around the corner and the MacBook Airs are really competitive.

If I misinterpreted your question, then no, as far as I’m aware, none of the M series has FULL support. The M1s and M2s are pretty close though.

Let me know when these X elite chips have full Linux compatibility and then I’ll be interested. Until then, I’ll stick with Mac, it has the better hardware.

Just to add to your comment; get a three phase inspection. Inspect the foundation before the walls go up, inspect right before the drywall goes up, and inspect after the drywall goes up before you start signing paperwork. If you wait to inspect after the drywall is up, you can miss a lot.

Do you have a list of items you’d be willing to share?

I agree with you in principle. I just think, for the majority of people, it’s not worth the risk of getting fired and getting set back in life for public comments over a YouTuber’s death. I’m not saying there are no hills to die on, this just doesn’t seem like the one.

I said this in a reply to someone else but my issue here is risk assessment, not whether the comments are abhorrent or not. I’ve read enough accounts regarding different periods of history where citizens turned each other in. If I’m going to get fired, doxxed, turned in, etc., I would want it to be over something that means more than opinions shared of Charlie Kirk.

…should be cancelled?

No. I intended my comment to be more of a statement on risk assessment. Seemingly half the country is on the right. A non-insignificant portion of them would probably be empathetic to Charlie Kirk’s death.

If I’m reading the rest of your comment correctly, I’d say we are in agreement. I don’t condone the right getting people fired over this, I don’t think it’s fair, and I don’t think it’s right of them to do so. But I do think the right trying to get people fired was foreseeable and it surprises me just how many people have attached their names to their comments, especially if they aren’t set up financially to deal with any potential fallout.

I completely agree with you on principle. My problem is that I don’t make “fuck you” money and whether we like it or not, seemingly half the country disagrees with our views. I can’t be starting fights and setting myself back over a YouTuber’s death.

I’m going to get downvoted for this but we on the left get people fired too

No matter how you actually feel about Charlie Kirk’s death, no matter how deserving he was of these comments, posting them with your government name attached to it is a bad move

You’ll have to scroll down a bit and maybe view it in reader mode but NY Times is reporting differently
