    I would like everyone to know that I have a new MacBook and I am setting it up without assistance and all is going swimmingly and I have not once been tempted to throw it through the window. OK, where is the hashtag key? I wanted to say NotACompleteTechnologicalMoron

        I do think the way the icons jump up and down at the bottom when they want your attention is a bit intrusive. A discreet 'excuse me' sign would be politer.

        It happened. I found another point of disagreement. I'm starting to feel better about my lack of "echo-chamber" already. ;)https://twitter.com/TamaraBrouwer1/status/1002641095115919365 …

        Assuming you have a dedicaded GPU you can run Windows on a virtual machine with GPU passthrough. (You'll use the onboard GPU for Linux). With Vt-d/AMD Virtualization performance will be 95-99% of running Windows directly on the host. And your geek score will go through the roof!

        I love my Mac. Best laptop I’ve ever had. Just ask or DM if you need assistance with the shortcuts😂👍🏼 It takes a bit to get used to but after that you’ll never look back🙌🏼
