I asked this to an AI, and it didn’t say anything intelligible, maybe I’m just not smart enough to understand AI.

    The way AI works, it’s likely to pick up on your style. I.e. if you ask with slang words or spelling mistakes, it’s going to answer very colloquially. And this translates to meaning… Once you ask “stupid” questions, it’s going to mistake that for a creative writing assignment. And I think your question is a bit alike »What’s better, oranges or papayas?« That’s just a weird question and you’ll get a weird answer. Linux and MacOS are very different things. Used by different people for different tasks. None of them is “better” without any context given.

        My wife and some relatives? Along with countless other people… We have a zero electronics devices with fruit on them -policy, in this household. But we do provide Lightning cables for guests… I mean MacOS doesn’t even run on a Thinkpad without several stunts and a day of work involved… You need to patch the UEFI, do something to the graphics, patch the ISO, or happen to have the exact right model. And it violates the terms and conditions. So MacOS isn’t really an alternative, is it?

            Whatever people do on computers… Surf websites, do emails, online-shopping, organize documents, vacation pictures, paperwork, type letters, draw diagrams, watch videos, do video conferences, stuff related to hobbies… I mean she isn’t a programmer or designer by trade or anything like that, but computers are just useful tools for a lot of things.

              Wen I was a kid, my mom had a website where she talked about different pies she invented, or something, I don’t really know.

              Does your wife have her own website about things she made?
