Very zero

Security, as outlined by OP?

I did not compare those. To get a shot at getting a partition on my machine, it needs to show promise in vm first.

MacOS comes ready installed, like it or not.

Just stating what needs to be done to gain user trust. I am talking from user perspective: i am not judging linux or its makers.

If it doesn’t work for some purpose on something, set the expectations accordingly on e.g distro website before letting me down after I already invested my time in it. That is okay too.

Thanks for the advice. To me, the responses here reflect well the reason the scattered linux landscape is so hard to approach for the uninitiated tho.

There could be reasonable vm conf defaults already defined for something as well defined as an m1 mbp.

Yes, I considered asahi. Decided to try vms first. The number of hurdles did not increase my confidence to try to set up a dualboot.

It also reflects that llm help is apparently useless in this area, if one is to trust the responses here. Does the landscape move too fast for them?

I tried installing fedora on mac m1 vmware recently, and enabled 3d acceleration separately. Llm seemed to think 3d acceleration would work better on fusion.

Performance sucked bad, particularly on games. Tux games were unplayable. I am confused what the bubble is on hn or on my end. Before that, on utm I think i tried ubuntu. After decades, linux is still hard to try out.

I remember that, around 2010 perhaps, I had a discussion with a friend, working at a local then hip, now corporatized software house. My passion was usability testing; I thought at the time it was my "passion for people".

They seemed to think most projects they sell cannot afford usability testing. Which to me seemed weird; after all, casual hallway testing a la joel spolsky really isn't resource intensive.

Reading this what I was more passionate actually developer's grip on reality. Having experienced user testing open my eyes several times, I had a keen sense of how we can delude ourselves into images of what our users ought to be - and in turn, what their domains are about in our heads.

To me, this suddenly turned the discussion into a fascinating exploration and demonstration of different standards of truthfulness in marketing.

As you’re not providing any quantifiable argument either, it seems to me this discussion doesn’t need to continue.

Though not ancient taoist, Finland has a strong shame culture so we also have lots of popular lyrics that seem to align with the theme. Another cultural pointer is Hal Sirowitz' Mother said.

* Sadetanssi: Kuvasi kaltainen *

you said, little boy the wheel of the world is best pedalled so softly no one even notices

and beware the day you look behind when speed no longer notices the pedal pressed to the floor

you said, that boy don’t let him loose he doesn’t instantly know which way he should be going

if somewhere comes the sound of good behaviour breaking if somewhere they are having fun without your permission

you wear your shame with pride when you look me in the face I am made in your image

you’d rather be ordinary than stunted in your growth well-behaved rather than torn inside

when you open the cupboard in the morning the skeletons are laughing you don’t know a single one but still they laugh at you

when at night you look into the mirror and see my face I smile at you softly and turn my back

I’ve made every mistake you only dream of making I am made in your image

none of them specifically, but something they share on a different level.

life is measured by individual achievement, self-actualization through work, being ordinary is failure as you're supposed to present and perform. none of those cultures differ much on that, though maybe on how much you're allowed to express preferences vs. that.

why does this thread read as escapism to so many? because it's a cultural norm people are not aware of, and it gets violated.
