Now I see why that touchpad has to be that big.
>>
>>61778627
the touch pad of OP's laptop is different than the one in the gif. OP's one doesn't have a lighting up Apple logo on the back, it's just glossy black. the older macbook pro laptops have about half the size of a touchpad than OP's.

my favourite terminal commands are GNU sed and awk
my favourite application is IINA. I use mpv on linux too, but IINA is a really nice frontend.

>>61778423

If you guys love the terminal so much why not just move to GNU/Linux or FreeBSD so you can enjoy your free (as in freedom) software on all hardware from all price ranges?

because with my hackintosh, i get the best of both worlds; native unix shell utilities + pic related

and macOS is the most polished OS i've ever used, and it isn't close
>>
>>61778423
python3

>>61778773

None of the software in pic related is free and open source. I don't think anyone running a GNU/Linux system will regret not using that software.

Are any macfags here actually exclusively macfags? I run windows 10 pro on my desktop and my work computer runs windows. I just like macOS for laptops.
>>
>>61779330
I'm almost there. I have a piece of shit HP laptop as a backup machine that has Win7 on it, but that's the only thing that's out of the Apple ecosystem.
>>
>>61779330

It's impossible to be exclusively MacOS for me. My previous main laptop was a Surface Pro 3 and I used that for about 2 years.

What made you switch from Surface? They seem okay.

I never owned an Apple product until 2014 when my ThinkPad died out of warranty. Now it's hard to imagine buying a Windows laptop.

Moving away from the software, does anyone know which SSDs are as fast as those in a MacBook Pro 2015+?

OS X is a mess and it uses too many closed source applications and libraries. The UI is backwards and shitty. There are also no good applications for it. I wanted to get WPS office on my Mac and guess what? It's Linux and Windows only so I installed OpenSUSE on my MacBook. It's faster and gets better battery life. Fuck off with that garbage.

You're all retarded. I can just run that stuff in WINE and it works 99% as well as it would on Windows systems.

>>61781562
Buy a normal SATA 3 SSD if you're using your machine at home. You won't notice the difference on faster drives except for the rare occasions that you transfer or access large files.

I use OpenSUSE on my desktop with a 24 inch 4k display. Are you retarded?
>>
>>61781562
Samsung Evo and Pro 950s and 960s are basically the same as the 2015 and 2016 MBP, maybe even a little faster.

I have a 2015 MBP and the SSD speed thing is kinda a meme. My desktop has a 1TB SATA3 SSD and there's basically no noticeable difference outside of synthetic benchmarks.

I usually use GNU/Linux, but can't use BSDs because the broadcom-wl (proprietary) driver for the wifi chip isn't compatible. I'd try BSDs otherwise.

and getting battery indicator, power management and brightness working just seems like too much tinkering
>>
>>61785632
>i didnt read any decent guides before i installed

>>
>>61785694
