This ad was a one-shot to me back then. Dropped Windows, Linux (for desktops) almost immediately. To have a UNIX system with an actually nice GUI was a dream come true. I only returned to Windows less than 3 years ago.

MacOS - used by kings, billionaires, and world-conquerors.
Loonix - used by troons, pedos, and incels.

Choose MacOS. It's okay to be white.

macOS is POSIX certified.

>How hard is it to port a program written for Linux based or BSD systems to MacOS?

If you're using standard libraries it should be directly portable. When using POSIX APIs it should mostly be directly portable, but in the case it isn't, it's more than likely the case it wouldn't even be portable between Linux and *BSD.

This is a retarded way of looking at it that equates the window manager to the operating system.

>>106438770
How many Unix servers are running on MacOS? None? Thought so.

>>106438770
macOS is in my blacklist because fucking macfags were constantly asking me help because their shit OS didn't do what they wanted. No, it's not flexible like this shit post is saying.

You’ve just stated a slogan which is an opinion, but not anything to do with the UNIX standard. Do you also think the poem on the statue of liberty sets immigration policy?

The UNIX standard was notably NOT written by Dennis Ritchie, so who gives a fuck about some chickenshit "standard" made up by MBAs?

It's an old ad, with a new macbook pasted over the G4. Apple used to be pretty elitist with their ads back in the day.
>>
>>106439640
This unironically. Pedoism when practised by ugly third wolrders or leftist virtue signalers is disgusting. If some richfag does it idc. Even when old bill does it I don't care because he's not going around trying to make it legal like the lgtv are now. But I think Trump being a mild pedo is now making leftists reject pedos a bit or at least pretend to for now, which is good.
>>
>>106440056
I think they are more eleitist now. It seemed off brand to me because they never mention competing products. They won't even allow companies to display their logo alongside other brands generally.

Ah, that looks like a perfect box to run linux on.
I will do with it what i do with every mac i see and get it running the superior penguin OS.
OSX is a good hard drive warmer (specially given how it makes NVME SSDs feel like a 386 hard drive with all the bloat), but no mac is complete without Linux actually showing what the machines can do.

okay but what if we snip the foreskin off so they enjoy it less

better to mutilate their penis at birth otherwise they will remember it. we will have to make the goys dumber too or they will try to stop more infant boys from being mutilated.
