Tahoe 26 Beta 3 edition

Looks like they turned down Liquid Ass for the second time, boyyos. Looks like regular frosted glass now.

The more I look at liquid glass the busier I think it is aesthetically. This coming from a Windows 7 Aero fan. Maybe with dark mode on it’ll look better but these gradients and such look worse than Vista.

>>105835525 (OP)
so are you gonna show us any comparison images or are you just gonna lie? i cant find anything anywhere related to apple changing anything with the liquid glass effect in this beta. completely pointless thread.

>>105838902
Literally first link in google dipshit.

that shit looks like hyprland

Why does it look so cheap and tacky compared to their previous designs? I think it's the new font that's just shitty.

>>105835525 (OP)
>>105838995
I can't believe they just went back on having things look like glass. Granted their first iteration of liquid ass looked like shit, but windows aero made it work so I thought they could too

>>105838995
yes this news is everywhere about iOS, but not macOS which is what this thread clearly supposed to be focused on

>>105839712
It was so illegible at the start. I can't believe they had the balls to show off what they did at WWDC.

>>105839712

>>105835525 (OP)
well, it was expected to be tuned-down. more so, i also expect accessibility check-box to turn it off completely and get current ui as is 15.
and, i also expect another layoff of 10k degerates who have fucked up qa of first beta.

>>105838995
How poorly thought-out is their new design that they are iterating on it while the product is in BETA?

>>105835525 (OP)
Already asked this over in >>>/g/hsg/ but I'll ask here again:

The Mac Mini is available for 555€ right now on Amazon. I might get one and test it out and if I really like it, it might replace my PC which I would turn into a small server.

Now there's a few questions that came up:
>Does MacOS support iSCSI
>Can I still ssh -x into the PC for things like gaming
>Does MacOS do client side scanning
>Is it possible/worth it to retrofit 10G ethernet

>>105841530
>iSCSI
https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/libiscsi
or some third-party tool
>ssh
ssh included out of the box. -x -X -y -Y supported.
>client side scanning
elaborate?
>10G eth
you can configure it with 10G port for 100 bucks with apple, or just buy a thunderbolt dock station with 10G port on it.
generally, you do want to pick a dock station, because those not only come with extra ports of all kinds, but they also come with m.2 slot + sd-card slot, which gonna give you plenty of storage expansion combined. don't cheap-out too much on dock station tho, because those can be housefires with random chink garbage

>>105842080
>ssh included out of the box. -x -X -y -Y supported.
Nice
>elaborate?
Does macOS have the same mechanism that microsoft recall has?
>you can configure it with 10G port for 100 bucks with apple
That's not what I want though. Here, take a look:
https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0DLC4TPDC
>or just buy a thunderbolt dock station with 10G port on it.
Sounds interesting.
>don't cheap-out too much on dock station tho, because those can be housefires with random chink garbage
Noted.
Thanks!

>>105842147
nope, no bullshit like ms recall for activity recording. you also do not have any ads or forced ai bullshit - siri and apple intelligence (built-in chatgpt) can be completely turned off with 2 sliders in settings.
but for legitimate snapshots/backup there is time machine: https://support.apple.com/en-us/104984
i just checked prices on amazon de for 10g~>tb - well, they are gonna offset you by at least 150-200 eur. at this point you might just consider buying it from apple and configuring 10g port, because you will pay same price effectively, unless you are ready to settle with 2.5g or 5g options which are cheaper

I know it's possible to upgrade the nand chips of macbooks, but where can I get it done in Germany and what would it cost me? Theoretically, I don't own a Macbook, but I'm considering buying a maxxed out 14" M4 Pro but the storage prices are insane.

>>105842952
It's not worth maxing out apple laptops due to constant upgrade, you are better off buying cheapest 16 inch MacBook Pro, then sell it 3 years later and buy newer one w hardware update. MacBooks retain value and you can re-sell them easily. Also m5 is coming soon, and m6 will have 2nm chip. Pic, related for storage solution, or even better buy NAS.

>>105843027

>>105843027
Can I install Programs on that external SSD?

>>105843198
https://youtu.be/_3Y7KMfqWg4

Yeah it's not linux, things just work. Also apple has refurbished store with decent discount on their products. Also make sure you actually need MacBook Pro performance for your workload, do you really travel move around a lot, if not just get the cheapest m4 studio, you get more ram in the default config. Also try to find Thunderbolt 5 enclosure for your external SSD, you will utilize full speed of that slot.

>>105843306
>Yeah it's not linux
I know you're joking, but my programs aren't installed on my OS drive on linux. Everything just works there too.

>>105843335
Why bother then, get whatever lunar lake laptop and use linux.

>>105843027
>It's not worth maxing out apple laptops due to constant upgrade, you are better off buying cheapest 16 inch MacBook Pro,
eh? I could see the argument for storage if you don't mind the juggling, but it's absolutely worth it for me to get more than 24GB of memory. Besides, I use the thing to make money so the "constant" upgrade of once every 4-5 years (unless I just feel like getting a new thing just cuz) isn't a big deal if it's a few thousand bucks. Either way, absolute base model is ..."not worth it"

>>105835525 (OP)

Hello friends, I'm in the market for an M2 iPad Pro, I haven't bought a new iPad in YEARS. and have a couple of questions:
1. Is it true that it'd be smarter to get the cheapest storage option and use an external 1TB/2TB SSD instead? How convenient or inconvenient is it? I'll mostly store HDR and regular movies, large image files for drawing reference and my edited videos in there, can apps installed in the iPad even run those files located in the external disc? How do I take advantage of Thunderbolt? I have 0 knowhow of this shit.
2. How's the web browser situation now as of iPadOS15? Can I use a full version of MS Edge already or is it still another mask for Safari? How's the experience while browsing "non meta" websites full of ads, are there built in tools to block all the spamspyware? I spend majority of my time browsing 4chan and shit so I hope the experience isn't trash.
3. For the 12.9" model, can I make do with a bluetooth mechanical keyboard for long essays and the touch screen for more light heared stuff or are those keyboard covers absolutely needed? My use case in order will be: Drawing, taking notes, browsing the web, multimedia and then writing if it's an emergency.
Thanks a lot!

>>105843512
Is it retarded to get the $300 iPad or should I just get the air. I really just want it for textbooks. Not sure if ill really use it though.

should i get an m4 air? 16gb enough for dev?

>MacBook Pro M1
>Lenovo Thunderbolt 3 Docking station

Why can't I connect two external displays out of the box? What's the big deal? This is quite frankly unacceptable.

>>105843582
that's actually kind of cool its like you have a bunch of iPhones in front of you

>>105843306
You need a DisplayLink adapter to run 2 displays from and M1/M2 MacBook. Don't bother, it's laggy as hell, freezes on 2x 1080p@60Hz. We all know it's bad.

>>105843198
It's so fucking retarded. Jesus Christ. Is this even fixable through software alone?

>>105843335
homebrew for package management, can install gui apps (e.g., firefox-esr)
rectangle for window management
notunes to make music app fuck off when you press play
iterm2 as a terminal emulator replacement
coteditor as a notepad++ replacement
vlc for playing music and video w/out libraries, sync and other garbage
zsh suggestions, autocompletion and syntax highlighting (get it on homebrew)

>>105843586
if you're just reading textbooks and not writing I don't see why you need anything fancy in your iPad. the screen won't be as nice or bright but that's far from essential

>>105843591
24gb step up in price i dont think it's worth it?

>>105843455
go2shell applescript to open iterm2 in currently opened finder directory (you add go2shell to toolbar while holding command) (github)
python@3.10, flake8 and black if you do python (homebrew)
bat as a replacement for cat w syntax highlighting, also colored output for manpages (homebrew)
gh for managing github accounts, tho you need to make an alias (homebrew)
coteditor is on appstore btw its made by some jap guy アニメ大好き
hush for safari to block gdpr contents (appstore)
and to block music/tv libraries make empty dirs in music and movies then set them as hidden and readonly

>>105843650
I'm still using the one and only Mac release of Freezer (that Electron pirate Deezer client)
It works on M1

The only problem is, it lacks a dark mode as it was introduced on a later update (which was never released on macos)
Now the thing is, dev settings are enabled and I can see the HTML like I would on a random chrome page (I can literally "inspect elements")

And the code it's full of "theme--light"
If I change it to "dark", it fully converts to a fully functional dark mode
But I have no idea how to save the changes, I know jackshit about electron

what can I do my niggas

>>105843512
16 inch pro "basic" model is absolutely worth it.

>>105843591
also worse screen
my mbp14's screen is a joy to look at
120hz, miniled, 500nits w 1600nits peak
if i was poor like you then i'd get the m1 mba instead

>>105838995
So are they gonna rename it since it isn't glass anymore? Like liquid plastic or something?

>>105843198
I carry 2 laptops (Work/personal) and the combined weight is 8 pounds. I'll sometimes buy some groceries on the way home, and walk legitimately 40 minutes a day some days.

Making 40 minutes with 8 pounds, I'm not going to say it's impossible, I'm definitely going to say it's a burden that literally slows you down. Obviously you can walk faster carrying less weight than you can carrying more weight. If the 14" max had more battery life I would probably buy it instead, the m2 max probably will.

I've heard this "hurrdurr if you strong go to gym carry around a 10 pound laptop is ez sissy man" but this is entirely claimed by people who do not actually carry their laptop any further than between their car and their office.

>>105843582
Just buy macbook air, ipad pro is a meme.

>>105843664
Thanks, thing is, i mostly edit my simple shit in Luma Fusion on an Air 3, works good enough. And im pretty much using said ipad for everything these days, even shitposting. Youre correct, the file manager is absolute shit but i manage with what i do.
Thing is, if i get an m1 macbook air id probably use it desktop only like my current macbook air and degrade the battery faster. (Which is stupid asking for advice for an m1 ipad air)

I may go for a 16GB Mac Mini. Question is, are they user serviceable at all?

Just replaced myself the battery on my 2017 Macbook air

>>105843027
Can you put Linux on the new macbook pro models?
The specs look incredible, and I would love to have a laptop with ~20hr battery life. But I don't went to use their shitty OS and instead put loonix on it.

>>105842952
yes, look up Asahi Linux
unfortunately it's still far from production ready and has many bugs and missing features but it runs

>>105843719
Thank God you can't, please stay away.

>>105843726
I don't see how Asahi Linux helps with a nand chip replacement?
>>105843703
I also carry two laptops (two thick ass thinkpads, 3kg each which is why I want to look for something else), but same question to you: What does this have to do with my question?

>>105842250
On no my m2 gets hot and slows down when I'm streaming multiple 8k videos and have 4 programs open

no fucking shit

>>105843749

air m2 faults so far

the m2 architecture is still 5nm (m1) thus just a larger more inefficient version of m1

moreover due to the architecture of the chip and machine, the macbook tends to overheat

the air m2 does not utilize two 128gb ssds in the 256gb version, which means write and read speed are cut in half compared to m1

the "newer" displays of apple all had even more atrocious response times than the ones before them, but further test are needed

there is more, but overall the m2 air is not a straight upgrade to the m1, and considering the drastic price difference in euro land (amazon: m1 8/256 - 900€ versus m2 8/256 - 1499€) it seems more like a bad joke

>>105843712
If you want proper desktop machine, buy cheapest m4 studio, you get most amount of ram and price ratio and cooling. Don't bother with storage just use thunderbolt enclosure.

>>105843770

HDD in my mid 2012 finally died so I have to buy a new macbook since that one probably isn't even worth sticking an SSD into since it's old as fuck and the original battery is at 60%.

Usually I like to get something mid-range so I can just ride it until it dies and I'm not updating every 3 or so years. But I'm torn since apple is making a lot of big updates as of recent.

Should I should buy a base M1 air that's on sale right now for like $800 and resell it in a year or two once warranty runs out or just go all in and get a 14 inch now for $2000?

I mostly just stream videos, shitpost and do some work billing on it. Gaming is pretty casual with just some minecraft, civ, pubg, etc every once in a while.

>>105841530
Please friendly apple fags, I'm new to mac and the scrollwheel feels retarded on my MX master. Google led me to an app called SteerMouse which made things ok-ish but no matter how I fiddle with settings it's just not consistent. Some places the scroll is too quick, on others its too slow. The default setting has an infinitely stupid scroll acceleration.

>>105843702
There’s a whole team working on Asahi, has been since like a week after the M1 launch.
As for why it’s a pain in the ass, it’s open but uncharted territory. It’s like if there were a giant maze that was free to walk into but there’s no maps.

>>105843774
Wait for m5, and buy cheapest m5 pro that's it. Don't bother with m1.

>>105843795
and compile it myself instead of fetching version X and getting all the incremental updates as binaries?
i'm fine with the bleeding age but if you need to switch between different versions frequently then it's definitely an attractive option

>>105843692
why m1 mba? not enough difference between m4?

ive just bought a macbook pro with 2tb of storage

I bought (and now returned) a 14" m1 mbp. I kept getting headaches, having eye strain, and feeling nauseated when using it. None of the display settings I tried seemed to fix the issue. Did anyone else experience anything like this? I know the display on the m2 air is different so I was considering buying one to see if I still had the issue. Feels pretty bad.

Is there a way to fucking get rid of this shit? Every time. Every single fucking time I log in there's 10 notifications from fucking "Google Updater" even though I already diSABLED THE GODDAMN THING

Just got an M1 MacBook Air for Christmas. For some reason, screen time stopped showing my usage from my Mac on my iPhone. I can see the usage from my iPhone on the Mac no problem. I've tried turning off and on the share across devices setting and also signed out of my Apple account on both devices and signed back in, still doesn't work. It was working for the first few days I owned the Mac. Anyone have any ideas what I can do to fix this?

>>105843849
>>105843845
I dropped my iPhone in water a few days ago. When I fished it out, the speakers seemed statically, and I thought it was water damaged. I have AppleCare+ and requested a replacement from Apple. Fast-forward to two days later, the speakers seem to be working properly again. I can't get a hold of Apple to cancel the replacement, and they already put a $700 hold on my card for the replacement device.

When the new phone comes, should I transfer my data to the new phone and then dip my old phone into water to ensure it's water damaged? Should I send the new, unopened device back with a note and hope they don't charge me?

What do?

for me biggest pain the ass is external monitors
m1/m2 only support 1 monitor which I can live with
however they don't have subpixel antialiasing anymore which means text renders like shit on low DPI monitors (most of them)

nothing else has really surprised or annoyed me, it's all the same shit

I have blacklisted, iphone 7 (can't be used with sim card), used to fix it with rsim, but then some forced auto update fucked it. Can it be fixed with jailbreak or some other stuff?

What's a decent way to get into macOS while
1. Being completely up to date
2. Is a form where I can try the OS without spending too much
Would it be an older Mac mini?

>>105843997
i switched from android last summer, and it honestly just depends on what you did with your phone
the biggest annoyances are syncing with itunes to transfer music to play on the iOS music app, but everything else works pretty much the same. and you can use a different music player app (like VLC) if you just want to use music downloaded from the internet.
the main reason I switched was because the iphone 13 mini is the only decent small phone on the market, and because i was sick of my android bricking out every couple years. my dad is still using his iphone 7 so i wanted something long lasting as well.
i use windows and mac side by side (windows desktop, mac laptop) and from windows, the biggest annoyance with macos is windows management, but i think theres software that gives you windows like window snapping. maybe someone can give some input here?
anyway the main reasons i switched were because i think apple hardware lasts longer (doesnt get crippling slowdown like my android/windows devices did), the basic hardware is much better (touchpad, speakers, screen) and i like the idea of keeping a device for a long time. my macbook has lasted me 9 years now and hasn't even slowed down a bit.

from a pure usability perspective i prefer windows and android respectively but the other aspects of applel swayed me, at least for portable devices. ill never switch from a windows/linux desktop though.

>>105844002
Yes, a Mini is the cheapest thing you can get with macOS.

Is getting a mac mini a good option or should I just go with a macbook air?

I won't really need portability until possibly Q4 of 2023 since I'll be starting a Ph.D program then. My needs are not very intense just basic games, LaTeX and programming.

>>105843774
I'm downgrading from an M3 Pro to one of the new A18 Macbooks when they come out for $500/$700.

$800 for M1 air is stupid expensive, I see them for $430-450 all the time.

>>105841530
macOS has iSCIS support as a first-class feature, most of my clients use it every day.

>>105844014
will you be sitting at a desk all day or do you need portability?
I recommend the M4 MBP, it's still inexpensive compared to a Pro/Max and still a lot nicer than the Air.
Otherwise get a nice ProArt screen and a Mini

looks like i only will buy a new bicycle and save the rest of my money so i can replace my iphone or macbook when they break

I've had Chimera on my 5s, but would love to switch to checkra1n so I don't have to constantly re-sign the app. Problem is that it's giving me trouble booting pongoOS. Any trick to making this happen?

>it's the major hurdle stopping young men from buying their products
I believe that's just because their products look gay
also they put games and shit on the Ventura page

That also has to do with devs not targetting Macs as much which is retarded since a lot of them use Unity anyway.
It's actually insane how well WoW runs on Macs but that's because they invested into Metal.

recently got converted into an iToddler by owning an iPhone 14 Pro Max. Then realized that I just hate Google and dislike Android OS due to that (not the phones. Still gladly wants to own Sony Xperia with Sailfish or other phones with OS other than Android).

Could iPad Pro replace/substitute MacBook Air? The newest iPad use M2 chip which confuses me if iPad is still a tablet sized iPhone OR sort of tablet sized MacBook (like those traditional laptops vs. Detachable laptops). Same CPU like MacBook Air but different OS (iOS vs. MacOS).
Still gonna use Windows for main driver though (Windows on ThinkPad X1 Extreme)

Doubt it. They are just taking their time and they missed the holy gate to be innovative, so they need to release a mature and respectable product that can compete. Maybe they'll make an AI that doesn't farm data and doesn't give lame woke ass responses but who knows.

Besides, they make bank on their consumer electronics and computers.

>the speed
Lol no it will be a slow piece of shit, AMD will blow it out of the water.
>silence
What is it with you macfags, you need a fan or it will throttle. I have a fanless 2016 macbook it’s slow as shit and gets super hot.

>with desktop OS, most relevant stuff already ported and ways to emulate other stuff basically out of the box
Enjoy your 30-40% performance penalty, there’s no way around that since you’re emulating a different architecture.

How does having a locked down bootloader and only being able to install things from the app store sound? So yeah it is a glorified iPad. Save your money and get a Dell XPS and put Fedora on it with Gnome it will be very mac like. And unlike the ARM Macs you can dual boot Windows natively when you need to or use a VM without having shit performance like you will have with the new Macs.

>What UNIX distro is that?
The only one that actually works outside of the server space.

Tell me what Linux distro you use and what you do with it. Useful things only please.

I have been using macOS for about a year and literally nothing of that is true.

i was gonna buy an iphone soley because liquid glass looked so sick, now i think ill just wait for the shitty clone of it on android that comes out this year

>2016 macbook
lmao, that's an entirely different machine now

>Could be a lot like the Watch when some see a lot value in it while it's nearly pointless for others. Though if it's done well, it's bound to find millions of people
the watch will look like a joke feature-wise compared to the potential of AR glasses
a lot are hedging this to be as 'revolutionary' as the iPhones introduction if not bigger

never had an apple computer before but i'm curious about getting a macbook. what's it like to a windows machine?

>>105844662
>Doesn't look like the case. Did you at least inform yourself about Rosetta 2 before pulling stuff out of your ass? Besides that's just for the edge cases
No you dumb faggot it is the case. You clearly don’t know how emulation works or computers in general thats why you’re an Apple user.

>Based on what?
Apple has always locked things down for ‘security’ that will come to MacOS eventually...gatekeeper already prevents you from running unsigned software by default all they have to do is remove the run anyway option. And with how locked down the hardware will be along with the T2 chip good luck disabling it. Maybe if you pay $99/year for a developer account they might let you run apps from outside of the app store. Enjoy your Apple appliance, it’s so nice having a real computer again after all these years of using Macs.

The new passcode screen on watchOS 26 beta 3 is really good, fully Liquid Glass

Yep...Elon’s implanted chip. Project that image right in my head and type by thinking.
problem is Jeff. Egos will find a way to leverage it and no matter what I think, there will be a constant “this item is cheaper from these sellers” or everytime I say “Alexa” it triggers my own brain and I end up answering my self and stuck in a loop

>>105844729
Imagine being this retarded... I guess getting pounded in the ass really does lower your iq.

what's the best way to emulate a PowerPC-era mac? I want to run picrel, but QEMU has shit out on me. The first two volumes are meant for 68K Macs and work fine with Basilisk, but I have particular nostalgia for Blam! 3

>>105844909
No, it's targeted for size, not performance, and it has compatibility issues with GNU libc. Your GPU is irrelevant.

Has anyone packaged yt-dlp on Gentoo (or Arch, etc, so I can see how it's done) with curl-impersonate support?

I'm getting errors downloading but it works with their Github release binaries so I know the issue is that it's detected as a bot when downloading.
