Do Not Buy. Looks like people nowadays are looking for things to get mad about.

Said the one who's always looking for such things.

Volta you act like an asshole, I'll give you that, always the same.

I'm not looking for things to get mad about, I comment on things which are truly outrageously bad yet they are peddled in the open source community as a second coming of Christ, e.g. Wayland. You can avoid these Intel products, AMD has been a great option for the past three years however, however I cannot avoid Wayland because RedHat decided to destroy Xorg/X11 and sooner or later I'll have to deal with this wonderful feat of misengineering.

You can't force anyone to follow your vision, can you? If they decided there's no future for X, then you have to accept it or do something about. I can avoid Intel for now, but AMD may be next. If it happens I'll live with it. Pulse Audio was real disaster, but I wasn't whining about it in every thread. Thankfully it's being replaced by pipewire.

Where is that magic Linus' middle finger when you need it so much?

I trust you Greg. You can stop this madness.

So, not only an instruction mess from hell, per licensee instructions and features? Wow. That's just brilliant.
