Yes you truly need Starbucks and labtops to live

Generally most people need a computer these days, yes.

As for the Starbucks not my thing, but people also need sources of enjoyment and sometimes that can be from a sweet drink.

Life isn’t about only food and water.

You don’t need a Mac though, in fact in most circumstances using a Mac actively makes performing computer necessary tasks harder than just using the local library computers.

Mac is the bougie flex of choosing to be less productive for the sake of brand clout.

What are you talking about? Macs are wildly popular dev machines.

I’ve been in a dev environment and have literally seen nothing of the sort

Also, wildly popular doesn’t mean wildly effective, even if that was true
