A four-panel meme showing operating system wars. Panel 1: Red macOS figure claims "macOS IS BETTER." Panel 2: Blue Windows figure counters "Windows is MUCH BETTER than macOS." Panel 3: Both look down at a small, sad yellow Linux figure. Panel 4: macOS and Windows figures tells the now happy Linux figure, saying "Linux is good too."

          would you give LLM (AI) to run commands on your macOS, Linux, FreeBSD or Unix machine? Fuck no. I survived this long without this crap and I will be fine. Do not want. Go away.

                If you know Deluxe Paint ("DPaint") for the Amiga (and MS-DOS), you know that it's one of the best pixel editors ever.

                @PyDPainter is a free, faithful DPaint resurrection, and the latest release includes a macOS beta version…
