I am SO sick of Macfags/iToddlers>boomer friend gets a MacBook Pro>"It's just so much easier than a PC, anon, you should really dump your antiquated shit">proceeds to call me weekly because he needs help>nothing works right, only two thunderbolt ports so he has to use a hub which can't charge or run his webcam correctly so he has to pick one or the other>programs are limited or crash all the time>no ability to repair/modify it>"muh simplicity"Fucking retard
>>106997051Macs for work are an even bigger joke:>work at fintech company>everyone has iMacs, no other option>something constantly breaks, someone always whining about something >one guy has constant monitor flickering problems >another one's disk will corrupt itself and need to reinstall the OS if he doesn't turn it off for the night >whenever there's a major OS update we draw sticks to see who the guinea pig will be for the next week and report to the rest what breaks with the new update. And something always breaks >updates themselves take over 40 fucking minutes>virtualbox shits itself all the time >the most counter-productive and retarded GUI in the history of computers>can't even have root privileges >forced to do everything the Apple way like some slave>retarded joke of a package repo >can't run simple bash scrips because even basic cli utils have their own special syntax on a mac>ask macfag coworker "how do I do X? on a Mac">"why would you want to do X?"At other jobs where I actually had the opportunity work with a real computer, the mac dorks on standups were often like "uuh I didn't actually do much work yesterday cause I was fixing my mac problems". Why the fuck does anyone even use those useless turds?
>>106997316This>boomer friend gets a second monitor (LG)>"fine, we'll just plug it into the HDMI port in the hub">screen is all stretched out and low res because it's a wide monitor>go into the system settings>hit "display all resolutions" because it's not in the list>still isn't in the list>go through all them, all stretched out>can't set a custom resolution or GUI scaling>look online>well, because that's not an Apple monitor, but you can put sidebars on it to make it virtually 16:9YOU FOKN WOT M8>mfw Applefags can't even use a fucking monitor correctly
>>106997051Ok Prakesh Sukdeek, keep using linux/windows.
>>106998014Apple is full of jeets too, retard.
>>106997605It's because his HDMI adapter is a piece of shit.
>>106997051>Get a Macbook Pro>Figure it out because it turns out fifteen years of Linux experience translate over to a willingness to learn new things>Gradually figure out all the good programs to get through Youtube and brave retards that post here>Don't actually dump my antiquated shit, keep its Gentoo install and use it when I'm taking a dumpMaybe your boomer friend would be a bottomfeeding retard no matter what operating system he used. Ever consider that?

>>107002497>$70kfuck>I don't even know anything about analog audio shit so I have to learn it allskill points. and it's pretty easy.>prosonuscringe and overkill for some jbl monitors. is he deaf too? been in a similar situation helping out people and dealing with wrong choices for things recommended by others. most often computers. when you're not familiar with the tech it's pretty easy to get raped by these sales faggots trying to make commissions.
>>107003358Yeah, seriously $70k. He got $70k in a slip-and-fall lawsuit last year because he's fat as fuck. Then starts buying all this shit. The other day I was in the car with him and he got a call from a creditor demanding money on his overdue credit card payments. JFC, how could he be that stupid? To be fair, I'm pretty sure he's actually mentally retarded at this point, not from Down Syndrome or FAS thoughI don't even know why he got the JBL monitors. It was like a $1,300 set. Why would you even get those for VOICE ACTING?>Yeah bro I just gotta listen to my own voice super loud so I can tune it/my head is too fat for headphones>use this $370 SoundID calibration mic and $249 software to fix it for me pleaseHe's genuinely the stupidest motherfucker I've ever met, but he's also the most honest and lighthearted guy I know so that's why I stay friends with him. I've posted on here about getting him out of the Nigerian-Beninese scam recently (got his money back and tracked the scammers down, but literally no government gives a fuck) and also posted so many stories about him to FPH threads on /fit/ about his terrible slop eating habits. He's a piece of work
