I was robbed of that safe environment. Gosh... it hurts me to think about what could have been.

Thank you thank you thank you for writing this. This made me smile and feel like shedding a tear. This is exactly how I felt when I watched the Dave2D video of the MacBook Neo, and other "reviews" that miss the entire point. This captures the point. The other reviews capture specs. This captures the emotion. This captures the reality.

Here's my question: What do you mean a zip file can be opened without an application? I looked it up and couldn't find a way.

I'm considering terminal utilities as apps too, btw.

This is a good and important counter-point to the given article. If we as 'tech people' expect the layman to have a higher standard of tech knowledge, then what is to stop people from other fields from telling us to do the same? Truthfully, an average person won't develop expert knowledge of every field.

Call them out, call them out. Why isn't Claude a native Windows x64 app if code is free?

But what is XSLT? Why is it important?

These points should be addressed first on the website.

Ignore the people criticizing you my friend, backlash is expected in a community of power users that use Hacker News- because they favor power tools. But you've made something really nice and quite useful, and you've solved a real-world problem.

I hope to see an operating system with these scripts as built-in, because they are so intuitive and helpful! Which OS will be the first to take this on?

> it really can become the Year of the Linux Desktop. Gnome has genuinely gotten pretty great in the last couple years, and I think a lot of former Windows would genuinely like it if they gave it a chance

This comment could have been written at any point in the past 20 years.

SuperHeavy256 — Thu, 25 Sep 2025 08:05:32 +0000

A browser being based on Chromium has nothing to do with how private it is. Yes you are furthering an internet monopoly by using chromium. But there is noncorrelation between being based of Chromium and Privacy.
