Many will tell you that buying Intel-based hardware from Apple is buying obsolete models.

They have great hardware and will always run Linux. I have KDE Neon running on my 2013 MacBook Air, and it runs like a champ. It’s the perfect travel laptop.

Yes, but keeping the old Apple hardware alive was not the point of the article. The point was to try to run MacOS on non Apple hardware.

That line was in reference to how long Apple would be supporting MacOS on Intel, which for the Hackintosh community, also means how long they can continue to build Macs with off the shelf parts.

These people don’t care about the Apple hardware. They like MacOS and want hardware that they can upgrade and tweak.

Well, it’s a quote from the article. And I’m commenting on the quote from the article. I’m sorry if you didn’t like my comment, but you could have skipped it instead of making it part of your day.

so only you have the right to comment on something?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Aww, are you offended for them? That’s really sweet.

We all have the right to comment, and reply, and reply. But if your reply is just to be an asshole, maybe your valuable time could be spent on something else—because it’s surely not going to impact my mood at all.

none of the adults you interacted with needed my defence, but I was interested in exploring how little was enough to set you off. You know, for science.

Although maybe just sitting down with the popcorn was enough given the obscene brawl you put on by yourself lol

We are both munching popcorn.

lol, I guess you remain the main attraction in this thread even if you start spouting sonnets

What can I say, I love attention? Thanks for giving it to me.
