you know linux works on a MacBook too right

you numpty lmao

you *can* but it's going to be far from a pleasant experience, especially after the arm transition.

I mostly went with the Thinkpad because they offered the same model I run linux on personally, but my preferences are really linux on pc > osx on mac > windows on pc w/wsl > linux on mac.

cjs: might have massively hosed up.

requested a thinkpad instead of a macbook at the new gig, and am learning the day before I start that linux workstations might be verboten. apparently all PCs must run windows and be managed workstations, but had I gotten a mac I'd have been allowed to run it unmanaged.

Definitely ask about WSL, if they are going to be dicks about that too it's time for malicious compliance until they give you enough room to actually work. Don't beat yourself up though, I would have done the exact same loving thing.

the lacroix pamplemousse is gross, i don't even get a hint of grapefruit, it tastes like cardboard to me. most of the other lacroix i'm fine with tho, bubly are also good

also i had a white claw recently and it's nasty as hell, it has added sugar so it's like drinking a non-diet soda, makes your teeth all sticky. idk if it was always like that, i remember it being refreshing when it first came out, maybe they piled on the sugar to attract the ~youth~. maui hard seltzer has zero added sugar and the pog flavor is really good

naw. zima was formulated and marketed as a wine cooler alternative. the seltzers are marketed against beer. theyre pretty different

its not marketing its tax handling and taste

they produced a fizzy thing that was treated by tax authorities as a malt beverage, not as a liquor beverage, and tasted not like alcohol like a vodka cooler, not a malt beverage, so it was super frickin popular and the ad war started actually after the word of mouth, when every beverage major kramered in with a copycat

both the bud light seltzers and the two robbers seltzers are pretty good and don't have that gross white claw tang to them

To this day there are certain flavors I cannot handle thanks to 4 loko

White Claw is bullshit just take a big ole swig of spicy water, neck a shot bottle and chase with more spicy water like a refined, classy adult

its high profit and no nationally distributed dealio can just crush you w a packaged product because the packaged dry pearls take like 60 minutes to prepare and aint nobody whos doin that

the thing that would crush the small boba firms would be a franchise that actually was viable but nobody is trying hard enough in the us. in asia itself its a consolidation frenzy and many firms are battling within their own polities but the us is a viable place to expand for friggin all of them so it hasnt consolidated here

starbucks is trying to be The Boba Place for america like sharetea is The Boba Place in large parts of taipei and indonesia but i dont think theyll succeed. i tend to believe that sharetea is just gonna be it
