Context: this is a legit screenshot I took on my workplace around 1.5 years ago. Hopefully it's been patched by now? Completely ridiculous behavior

Having a working Linux right out of the box is such a game changer.
During the pandemic and jump to work from home - having used windows, Linux, and Mac. I've been a windows user for like 20 years and jumped through so many wacky ass hoops setting up a dev environment. Linux made it easy. But then the IT folks hated supporting our dev-specific Linux setups and we switched to Macs, which are pretty beefy.
If there was a consistent Linux powerhouse laptop that also was a dream for the IT folks to manage, we'd use those. But there isn't. So next best thing is Mac.
