Dell does this but continues to outsource to India and China where communication is an epic problem that has never been solved. This is nothing short of a stealth layoff. If they were so interested in communicating they would hire all US

I love FreeBSD on personal servers and workstations. But lean into FreeBSD not into macOS look and feel. The m2 macs make it the best workstation out there. If you have that there is no business need for this os. Run it for fun but it’s n

I used this years ago and the comments reminded me why I never used it again. Common theme in the comments it’s a nightmare. I do recall it being ungodly prickly to get it to work and debug. Now days unless it is required for performance

electron apps are near instant no install with me and others. Exceptions exist, but taking a gb of ram to edit a 9.2k file is insanity. I think 1Password lost its way, especially on the subscription model.
