Comment on Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme crushes Apple M4, Intel, and AMD in new benchmarks
galaxy_nova@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoYeah true, but if you use macOS expecting Linux that doesn’t make any sense. Then it’d just be Linux with a different DE lol. Hopefully doesn’t come across as snarky but pointing these differences out always seems rather pointless to me, they do exist but I mean yeah it’s not the same os.

Yeah I guess, but it’s still annoying to have identically named tools that do the same job but aren’t compatible. Or, like,
base64 -don macos can gobble the last char of output. So then you have to homebrew coreutils or something, but it just means that stuff that you feel should work compatibly out-of-the-box doesn’t, and writing *nix scripts without perl is just a pita.I forget what my point here is.
