@seb__tech @furryhagumi It’s most likely 2017, but I think the storage is still upgradable on those

@furryhagumi If its the 2016 one then its acctually the last MacBook with removeable storage bing the non touchbar one. With Linux it still can be a nice computer especially powerefficient.

I can see it's a Dual Core i5 No this is a mediocre ass laptop

@kr0der I also use a Magic Keyboard at work, but only because I was forced to get a dedicated keyboard and this was the only one available that would fit in a backpack easily. At home I use Keychrons nowadays though.

what keyboard does everyone have? i'm still in the apple magic keyboard gang

@s23amourai @skylermzx @dictator_jii You can get all the metadata, you just need to pass the proper arguments (ask an LLM for help)

@skylermzx @dictator_jii with yt-dlp & co you don't get the metadata

@omarvvvr larper moment

Freelancers, you have $2K. What are you buying ? -Mac mini M2 -MacBook Air M2

@OkayDonuts definitely everyone else

Furry choices with furry consequences 😳

@bee_fumo Linux Intel driver moment

update on the vulkan minecraft test, seems like it still runs like crap for me.

@saraaa7447 Also if they were using OCLP why would they not just go to Sequoia to get the latest security patches and such☠️

@saraaa7447 I don’t think they’re using a patcher, if I’m reading the pixelated af image correctly, it’s saying that’s a 2017 MacBook Pro, which officially supports Ventura I think they have just turned off transperancy effects off manually for some reason.

gang fix your post-root patches there's no gpu acceleration

@Radar_rubbish But buying Razer laptops, keyboards, and their basic mice while claiming you’re a tech person usually means you really do not know much like actually, or you don’t care what you have as long as you seem cool or something

@Radar_rubbish I mean a lot of people do buy Razer stuff for legitment reasons (I really enjoyed using the Hammerheads when I was using a Switch for playing games on the bus since they allowed to have low latency audio on any bt device)

i will laugh at pc experts that buy a fucking razer laptop you can’t get a battery for

@RaminNasibov Recycled af tweet + current Macs have more ports

the biggest downgrade in history

@FischerQui74958 @RaminNasibov No MacBook Air has ever had a single USB-C port bud

@RaminNasibov My MacBook Air only has one USB-C port. Its very frustrating, especially because it has a short battery life, meaning it has to charge most of the time its being used.

@Raynerdtech Developers though are a different story

@Raynerdtech People usually working in tech don’t use MacBooks unless they really need one.

Is MacBook really the best choice for people in tech or y’all are just using it for the aesthetic?

@viridiancolors 16 gb ram experience when you really should have at least 32:

the 8gb of ram experience

@Hub4Learning the polarizer isn’t something you can easily remove, there’s still at least a layer of plastic or glass in front of it

This one TV mistake turns the screen white

Just used SSH to change my UDR7’s LED to white - it looks sooo much better this way. Really unfortunate that there’s no official way to do this.

@joshatticus @NekoMichiUBC How do you get OpenMTP to work with the Switch 2? The app just refuses to recognize it.

@NekoMichiUBC It's because it uses MTP, you need OpenMTP to use it on a Mac

Funnily enough, despite a MacBook being depicted here this feature does not work with Macs. Plugging a Switch in image transfer mode into a MacBook causes the Switch to act as a power bank.
