I love surfin' the web on this "old" #Macbook. I miss the look and feel of older #MacOSX.

If anyone out there is fairly new to Linux gaming, do not sleep on FreedroidRPG. :tux:

It plays similar to Diablo, has a simple but decent core gameplay loop.

The English is a bit rough but the story holds up well & I found enjoyable.

Can be played on pretty much most systems... I think.

The official web site mentions Win/MacOSX/Linux
However I do see freeBSD packages & freshports out there.

Tux the Linux penquin mascot standing front and center wearing a yellow helmet, yellow vest with an exposed belly that has a square cutout for circuit board, components & wiring can be seen.
Tux is also holding an energy pistol that has multiple glowing green rings along the barrel of the weapon.
Behind tux is 2 robots: a green 3 body segment robot with 4 arms, 2 cameras & pincer claws.
A second robot with 2 body segments, one being an elongated body with ribbed cylinder body, oval shaped head, two wire antennas & one camera.

Off to the lower right corner has what looks to be 2 black j hook lamps.

Ces bouffons de fanatiques de #GNOME qui disent l'adorer mais font tout pour le faire ressembler a #macosx 👀

Leur système est si "pur" qu'il ressemble a ceux des colabos qui financent trump 👀

I'm poking around my old Mac OS X data from 2003–2007. I have a number of backup disk images (.dmg). I have been able to mount them on Linux with the help of github.com/citruz/dmgwiz It converts the DMG to a HFS+ disk image, which can then be loop mounted:

`doas mount -o loop,ro "/tmp/iMac Backup Nov 2003 Disc 1.hfs" /mnt/hfs`

For years, I've found the Dock to be incredibly frustrating to use. A case of "form over function". This didn't start with macOS Tahoe. it's been around since the earliest days of . And then I discovered a handy Mac utility called Sidebar. Read on for my review.

@vkc pushed me. After a few decades of #debian and a foolhardy year of #MacOsx I just installed #Fedora #AsahiLinux

Looking at the stats between my two old #Macbooks I can see why the older mac seems snapier. There is at most a 8% difference in performance between the two in benchmarking, but most tests are in the 2 to 4% range.

Given that the older mac is running it’s native OS (#MacOSX 10.6) and the newer one is running current #Opensuse is probably why the older mac feels snapier.

As an aside, the “jumps” in Intel Mac performance is pretty meh from year to year.

It kind of blows my mind 🤯 that the 2011 #Macbook Pro running #MacOSX 10.6 feels/seems snappier than my 2014 MacBook Pro running #Opensuse #Slowroll.

I did have to mask/disable #PackageKitD and remove #Gnome Software on the 2014 MB as it was eating up the CPU. Maybe that was part of the slowness feeling issue? 🤷

@claudiom @NebulaTide I always preferred over . I switched to under when it first came out. I've used and off and on under (nee OS X, nee Mac OS X) and .

At this point, while I still primarily use Firefox via , I do occasionally use and find it to be more performant. For example, works fine in Firefox, but struggles when sharing video, so I use ungoogled for that.

Hiya nerds,

I need a software recommendation. I'm looking for a file comparison tool, sort of like Meld for GNOME but a little more tailored to the experience of reconciling duplicate files on multiple hard drives.

The requirements
- #FOSS / #FLOSS
- Compares Files, tells you if it is on Drive A vs Drive B

The Nice To Haves
- Recursive
- Bitwise comparison (in case the paths or file names aren't exact)
- Multiple drives? Might be a stretch.
- MacOSX compatible, but failing that, Linux only is fine too

The Use Case
My partner has multiple hard drives that have acted as her ad-hoc digital backup solution for years. But not every drive has everything on it, and she's pretty sure some of it is redundant, sometimes even within the same drive.

She'd like to slim down her storage needs and KNOW for a fact where and what she has, and how many copies.

@literallyjuste the big X with the shadow reminds me more of #MacOSX

This was my first #mac. It’s been a part of my collection for around 13 years now! #vintagemac #oldmac #vintageapple #oldcomputer #powerpc #powerpcmac #powermacg4 #powermac #macosx #macosxtiger #spacehey

A silver Power Mac G4 Mirror Drive Doors tower sits on the left side of a desk next to a black and silver 5:4 Dell LCD monitor. The monitor shows Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger with a web browser open to the SpaceHey website (a modern version of the classic MySpace website) and the “About This Mac” window visible, listing Mac OS X version 10.4.11, a dual 1.25 GHz PowerPC G4 processor configuration, and 2 MB of L3 cache per processor. The wallpaper on the desktop is a tiger fur pattern, referencing the operating system codename “Tiger”. In front of the monitor is an Apple keyboard and an Apple mouse on the desk. The setup is in an unfinished basement with exposed wooden framing and pink insulation visible in the background. The lighting is low and warm, provided by a nearby desk lamp out of frame.
