    If I upload my mind to a Mac, do I become more digitally beautiful than PC digi-people, but far less cognitively flexible?

    (BTW, please don’t flame me for hating on Macs, I used Macs for most of my life, it’s just a joke.)

      You become more digitally beautiful but cannot help the feeling that you have lost a small part of you in the process. You traverse your new habitat only to realise large parts of it are walled off to you.

      You eventually acquiesce to your situation, as a metaphorical bird in a carefully designed and elegant yet ultimately hollow bird cage.

      (Also a Mac & Linux user, I’d really be hoping nobody takes enough offense at joke posts like this in 196 Lemmy to warrant a flame war).

        LOL, indeed, but would I also enjoy better digital health, because most viruses and malware are designed for PC digi-people? 😆
