I mean, if you log in to Facebook at all, whatever MacOS collects is a drop in a bucket in comparison.

I didn't say it's perfect, but it's not terrible. And I think that page is mostly about Apple services, like iCloud and stuff, not MacOS specifically. It's not necessary to use the services.

Ubuntu has Snap and ads and stuff, but I thought Manjaro was considered good. What's wrong with it? It's supposed to be Arch based.

Privacy and data collection-wise MacOS is fine. It's their main selling point. Doesn't even force updates on you. I know it's a low bar, but damn Windows bar is at the floor at this point.

Can somebody explain why this was removed? It didn't break any rules, "Russian cope" isn't prohibited by the rules. Just trying to understand the logic. How does deleting controversial opinions (that aren't hate speech or call for violence) help anyone?

Side note, I just realized that Rule 5. says "no politics". How is this even possible? 80% of content here is politics in some shape or form, just like this post.

Sisko still calls her Old Man though. Somewhat ironically, but consistently.

This is the kind of incorrectly drawn swastika they are taking about:

Thank you for captioning it, I was about to ask questions.

To be fair, PS2 emulation is still not that great, but I guess it's due to sheer amount of games for that system. Last summer I decided to check the PS2 emulation after 10 year break and 2 out of 3 games I tested didn't work properly. Granted, those are kinda niche games (Transformers (2004) and Free Running), but compatibility still needs work. Hardware requirements are decently low for the games that do work, though.

PS4 is actually easier to emulate than PS3, because former has regular x86 architecture, but latter has a very weird CELL/PowerPC architecture CPU.
