I just stole a m4 base model mac mini from a car dealership I work at. I was thinking about replacing my GMKTec Nucbox for my tiny lil media server, but looking into it it seems like MacOS is dog shit for things like that.
I'm really struggling to figure out what I can even do with this outside of finally learning how to make iOS apps which I really don't have any desire to do. I have it hooked up on my bed monitor, I figured since I mainly use it in bed with my iPad and iPhone I could control it and it'd all be a seamless ecosystem, but it's fucking annoying, connecting the monitor to my desktop and using KDE Connect is a better way of controlling the screen than the built in Apple remote desktop.
I seriously cannot think of a use case for this. Should I just sell it?

Give it back, Jethro.

no, these bastards refuse to pay me overtime, demand I work 11 hours, tell me they have no money for raises, then buys all new equipment for the sales department that hasn't hit quotas in over 16 months. Fuck them I'm stealing as much shit as I can until they either fire me or I find a better job.

You shouldn't steal from people. I hope you get arrested for what you did.

why are these things going for so much on ebay? MSRP is like $500 but the base models on ebay are like way higher at like $650/$700

they're backordered 3-6mo because of the ram shortage. i should sell mine...
>>
>>108569472
>>108569849
Not just the RAM shortage, AI hypebeasts are buying them up to run Openclaw agents on them.
The big trend is specifically Mac minis because they're the cheapest Mac Apple sells and they want iMessage support.

>>108568835
they can report that unit stolen to apple. all the need to have saved was the serial number. if they had it logged into / connected to an apple account, they can track it via find my device. they can also remote into it and wipe it and lock you out completely.
if you were able to wipe it before they noticed, you might be ~ok~. if they had abm setup, they can still remotely erase it and lock you out of it completely. if they didn't have abm enabled, then all they can do is report it to apple as a stolen product. at minimum, it prevents you from doing any warranty claims and prevents you from any service from apple, even if you pay out of pocket. at worst, they can report it to the police as stolen, and if you ever took it to apple, apple can report it to the police.

Enjoy the jail time and never being able to find a decent job again. Hope it was worth it.

>>108568835
First of all, if you want to keep it, you never connect it to web. You can't sell it that way, but it's at least usable for you personally. Later you may be able to setup some proxy and give that proxy only to specific apps you wanna have access to internet. Not to the system.
Also forget about updates and downloading stuff from official store. You maybe can use brew. But lately Apple been doing some stupid shit requiting devs to ID themselves, so some software currently does not work at all. Not that your Mac's stolen satus have any effect on it.
>>108568971
This. I'm not sure if OP can handle it, maybe he should sell it indeed. Unless he does it in a way that makes it easy to trace it back to him...

there is no equivalent to macs

macs have:
>soldered SSD/RAM/WLAN
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>when pajeetOS runs out of RAM it swapfile rapes the SSD to death within 3 years
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>when the SSD dies it bricks your entire currybook because the EFI is stored on the soldered SSD to save $0.05 on a dedicated chip
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>components serial numbered and tied to the motherboard to prevent repair and replacement (including battery)
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>riveted keyboard that requires total destruction of the chassis to replace
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>flexgate cables that are so brittle they crack from opening your screen past 90 degrees more than 2 dozen times
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>screens so fucking shit they have over 90ms response times (essentially 10Hz)
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>screen made from pajeet trash glass that cracks from temperature change in seasons or tape over the iBotnet webcam
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>so fire and explosion prone the FAA have banned them from all flights
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>uses phone CPU that's so shit it gets destroyed by decade old i3s from 2017 and can only "compete" by cheating at benchmarks in extreme edge cases with hardware accelerators
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs
>curryniggers at apploo get so full of sniffing their own currynigger silicon shit they ship currybooks with no fans and they run so hot they melt the keyboard keys
doesnt exist on 99% of PCs

>keyboards with 63.5% failure rate
unheard of on PCs, and yet you curryniggers defend it with "jus werx fer me!"
just because you're in the 36.5% survivor group doesn't make your currynigger trash any good
this list goes on forever
there's no PC laptop as total fucking currynigger shit as crapple's streetshitter books
they are the biggest heaps of steaming currynigger shit in the history of computing second only to curryPhones

>swapfile rapes the SSD to death within 3 years
The swapping sounds very concerning on paper but these machines have been out for ~6 years now and as far as I know there hasn't been an epidemic of early SSD failures.
>>
>>108573252
iNiggers are brain dead and just take it up the ass when their currybook just randomly stops booting when the SSD dies and bricks the entire thing
they've been dying by the millions since 2 years after M1

sure, some computers always break. apple has rich, white customers. if their laptops actually started failing at high rates there'd be a class action lawsuit.
