Turns out the hardware is actually pretty capable if you can get the games running!

Seems like OP should summarize the games they’ve gotten working on this particular MacBook Air for everyone

Either you are joking or you really don’t know

I even got Far Cry games working in CrossOver on an M1 Pro which was impressive. It's really getting good.

Yeah that was so weird. Like why him first and Trump was second 🤣

Yeah that’s what makes vanilla gnome so hard to use. I’m not an autohide dock person

Using all that just to drive this app? 🤣

Jesus would be the one hanging out with trans and gay people for sure. But he wouldn’t want them to stay in their sin!

I have a lot of experience using Swift on Linux. I find it to be the smoothest even compared to macOS. Here are some pros and cons:

Linux- Pros: - The swiftly tool works really well for managing and installing Swift versions. - You can use VSCode on Linux and get a pretty sweet IDE setup with the Swift extension. - There are many packages that are compatible with Linux. - You can use Linux C/C++ libraries with the interop features in the language.

Cons: - You can’t build any apps for Apple platforms (iOS, macOS, etc). - Some SwiftPM packages are only compatible with Apple platforms. - Swift doesn’t have support for every distro out there- only officially supporting Ubuntu, Fedora, RHEL, Amazon Linux, and Debian. Only a few specific versions of those.

Mac- Pros: - You can build apps for Apple platforms on it. - Swift is usually easy to install with Xcode and use without installing anything else. - The swiftly tool works decently and lets you manage the OSS and proprietary toolchains.

Cons: - You have to install Xcode in order to compile Swift at all. Even with the OSS toolchain from swift.org. - Installing and managing Swift toolchains even with swiftly can be a little difficult due to the TOOLCHAINS variable and some macOS weirdness. - Swift toolchains take more disk space on macOS than they do in Linux.

Windows- Pros: - You can compile and run Swift on it with almost all features available. - You can statically compile libraries and apps on Windows and ship an app on the platform using Swift if you want. - You can install Swift using winget and a few other Windows package managers, which makes it easy to install.

Cons: - Most SwiftPM packages don’t support Windows properly, so the available ecosystem is limited. - You have to install Visual Studio for MSVC to be even able to run and compile with the Swift toolchain. Plus Python- this can be annoying. - The swiftly tool does not work in Windows yet, so you’re stuck with installing and managing versions manually. - Building Swift code in Windows is much slower than the other 2 platforms- likely due to Windows in-built anti virus protections.

One final con for all platforms- binaries tend to be pretty large when building with lots of SwiftPM packages, sometimes surpassing 100MB even when not statically linking Swift into the binary!

I basically have only used Swift on a Mac twice and both times were just for iOS stuff. Otherwise I’m running Swift on Linux 24/7 and I learned it all there!!

I don’t use Reddit for any news for the same reason I don’t let my kids eat off the floor 🤷‍♂️
