Edit: Jesus Christ, people. If you buy a $150 Thinkpad made by slave labor instead of a $1,200 MacBook made by slave labor, you're still supporting a capitalist economy based on slave labor. We all do. We have no choice. The number of smug liberals in the comments saying "well I buy a cheap used laptop" or "well I buy coffee beans and make my own coffee" are completely missing the fucking point.
Don't tell yourself your consumption is moral. All of us make unethical choices every day because there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Accept your shame and guilt and let it drive you to do better.
maybe its got linux ?
Then they would be a femboy with striped socks, and drinking a home made coffee in their basement
So I just need the socks, then?
Lemmy moment. And I'm all for it.
And still wouldn't be using a MacBook as the hardware unless it was an older one they fished out of a dumpster.
low key, this comment has done more to make me want to try linux than like 95% of the comments here advocating in favor of it. GJ.
If you ever decide to open that door, install Ventoy on a USB stick and then copy a few different Linux distributions' ISOs onto said stick. You can try them all out easily and without risk that way, it's pretty cool.
I'll probably take this advice but I was probably also just gonna go with linux mint
most effective with arch
