Tbh I’m not sure if you can. That’s proprietary IDEs for you.

In case anyone wants to know the actual answer, it stands for cross platform make, and my understanding is that it’s for generating build project files for various development environments. For instance, with one CMake file you can generate a Visual Studio Solution file, an XCode project file, a Makefile, etc. Several IDEs are also able to read CMake files directly.

That works until you need to support Visual Studio or Xcode. Then you either maintain their stuff manually too, or you get CMake to generate all three. I don’t love it but it solves the problem it’s meant to solve. The issue is people using it when they don’t need to.

Certain parts of the US (typically further southeast) anything over like 5% is exclusively in ABC Stores, a completely separate building and company from grocery stores.

I guess Luke doesn’t make a whole lot of sense but I don’t think Han would either.

Man, they quite literally don’t make them like this anymore. I miss them.

That’s… what the subscription cost is for. For the developer to make a living.

Please don't make me google where your application saves things by default in c/memes@sopuli.xyz

To be fair, this is not a windows exclusive problem, especially in the age of smartphones and flatpak.

unusable mouse in c/funny@sh.itjust.works

Here’s the thing about that though. The one thing the Magic Mouse does really well, is smooth scrolling. Apple makes it so no other mouse can do that since they control the software. So despite all the other issues it has, if you want their buttery smooth scrolling you have to use the Magic Mouse. And Apple shills will refuse to go without it, thus Apple makes bank off their otherwise shitty mouse.

The only solution to this is a sea change where people stop buying apple products purely out of brand loyalty, which will probably never happen because they do make enough genuinely good products to keep people from losing faith, like the M1/2/3 laptops.
