Holy crap I hate macs. There is no option (only terminal, I searched afterwards) to turn off the annoying sound that plays when you plug the charger in ! I just woke a baby up with it. Ghouls.

Without a doubt, the shittiest laptop I have EVER used is a macbook. Completely disrespects privacy. A greedy bluetooth that stays on even when the lid is closed, and is always eager to connect. I wish I didn't have to use this piece of crap for work :(
Ugh. Reporting another anti-pattern from apple. Here is a screenshot.
Clicked on an epub file, and macos automatically opened this software. Cannot close it. Obviously you can kill it with some sort of a system monitor, but not through the software's normal UI.
Then I looked at the settings. This software sends all your data to apple engineers so they can know you better. What a disgrace.

macos has to the shittiest UIX I have ever used. Worse than DOS.
1. There is no predictability regarding how windows are attached to desktops.
2. There is no real rule to when a software is truly killed instead of being minimised to dock.
3. The menu bar up top is absolutely hideous and useless.
And of course, it fails at the most critical moments because the UIX is so brittle.
T_T Can't wait to not have to work on this POS browser machine made for babies.
Does anyone else have their apple machine reboot on them willy nilly? My air m2 does that after I have been afk for a while. Instead of waking from sleep, sometimes it just decides to restart. Obviously forgets all the windows and the desktops they were assigned to.
So frustrating. It's such an absolute shitshow of an OS. I wish I didn't have to use it for work :(

Any XQuartz users on here ? I've been using it with x2go. Every time I move to a different workspace, the window disappears and is really hard to get back...
Any XQuartz users who have managed to make sense of this UI ? Apple UIX so borked and dysfunctional :( At least I can go back to a linux box at work through XQuartz. Oh wait, no I can't...
So the ordering of frames in macos desktop overview is just nuts. I have found no workflow in which it makes sense. Am I missing something here ?
I know their UIX sucks, but I refuse to believe it is this bad!

T_T As I swim against the opinionated shite-current that macOS is, I can't help but rant.
What if you could make macOS work like you want it to, rather than it 'just working'.
The obsession with frictionlessness creates more friction, especially for anyone who doesn't belong to the browsing and webdev segment of users (which I guess is the intended demographic).
Very competitive hardware. Marred by a dysfunctional OS :(
Interesting. So zoom held my login hostage until I updated the software to whatever idiotic form it has morphed into now. I was late for the meeting, and zoom started showing an unasked for AI, UI-element that I can't get rid of. Data-theft by holding your communication hostage.
Is there a way around this situation? Some modded version of the software?
Lawdy lawd. I am trying to make a presentation deck in keynote (work...) and I cannot believe that macos does not have scroll-wheel zoom when using an external mouse. Hands down the most inconsistent and hardware-locked pc I have ever used - probably by design. What an unscrupulous company that forces users to buy their hardware by limiting productivity.
