You have 10 seconds to explain why you aren't using real UNIX.
Cuck license
I value performance and longevity more.

>>108654012macos isn't proper posix. I remember when I used it once and even though it was "unix certified", it didn't even support clock_gettime. You still cant write typical posix code and run it on macos, you need mac specific functions.
there's nothing inherently superior or sacred about le UNIXit was a great operating system and (what would soon become) better operating systems borrowed from itacknowledged, thanks, no reason for me to go out of my way to run it in the big 26
It was designed for a machine that had a pittance of the address space of the 8086 and used tape for mass storage.

>>108654583>no argument other than "muh cope"I accept your concession. Wholeheartedly, in fact.
>>108654032lolLmao even
>>108654012There's no quality or use case in using the real UNIX, simple as.
>>108654012But I am.
People enjoy the Neo because for the price, it's the best physical device. Autists overlook this and only look at statistics and numbers which in the end don't actually matter for 99% of people. What they can't conceptualize is that this is a device people physical handle and carry around every day. It matters that this thing has superior physical design, superior keyboard, has a superior track pad, has superior physical like a tank durability. This is the actual longevity that people care about. Whether it renders a 4k video in 2:30 or 6:42 doesn't really matter. These things are meant to replace chromebooks, which they utterly blow out of the water.Name a better build quality (keyboard, trackpad, body, durability) for $599, or $499 for students.

>>108654890I agree with you, if I had to buy a 600$ laptop, this would be itbut which one of these selling points is a merit of macOS being real UNIX as opposed to UNIX-like?

OpenVMSBVLLS stay winning
yes
>>108654012No one cares about Unix>>108655494You can actually install other operating systems on that thing because the bootloader isn't locked down
>>108658529Dave Cutlery, father of Windows New Technology
>>108654012For my use case, macOS or BSD would be more limiting than Linux. And Linux is already POSIX compliant and the standard on servers, so I don't really care about the UNIX cert.
It's a simple laptop that can throttle but it isn't noisy, it's lightweight and it gets basic shit done.For simple tasks it's better than say, a chromebook mainly because the OS allows to do a lot of stupid little bullshit things from 20 years back. And because there's like 70 billion little applications for it (a lot of them paid, unfortunately, which is why the whole idea of "macfaggotry for the cheap" seems nonsensical to me, once you buy this thing, you're going to pay subscriptions for fucking taskbars). You can do file tagging. You can do automatic shit on folders. You can put fucking chatgpt on your damn file manager if you please. The point is it lets a normalfag that's not willing to install a linux distro on a bulkier shit still do a lot more despite having a measly 8gb of RAM and a fucking phone chip.
>>108658892I've been able to install Linux on my macOS machines too.
>>108654012Unix is a server OS. Fruit machines need not apply til Tim Apple (or the upcoming guy ig) starts selling servers.
>>108654012More like Jewnix
>>108654012One of those ports is USB 2.0
>>108654012there are plenty of laptops with better CPUs and more RAM and storage tho, less than what the MBN costs (and im not talking about chinkified brand like chuwi, even doe they make good laptops).mbn is good for normalfags that need a cheap laptop for basic tasks, but for people that know what theyre doing there are better picks

I bought and returned an MBA on two separate occasions because the hardware just doesn't feel good to use. I don't give a flying fuck about trackpad gestures and the keyboard feels like shit.MacOS seems alright but I can't really justify dropping twice the money on an OS that I'm not even sure would fit my needs.

>>108654012ching a raid array rebuild and zening out and it hit me, normies like you, apple marketing shill spammers, you will never be able to have an offline LANYou are too stupid and lazy. It's simply beyond you.The reasons why you would need one are incomprehensibe to someone who thinks brands are status symbols. The fact that LAN cables don't have a brand that signifies status to fools means you can't even understand why LAN cables exist or who would want one. I mean you know you are lying and selling awful underpowered overpriced 8gb uninspired thrash that traps consumers into an awful corporate walled garden cloud portal devices hell but you are so lacking ability, characater, morals, technical ability you are willing to spam this junk for low wages. That's your life. You probably spend most of it on food and rent and then use the free apple homosexual mating call product you get to sit in starbucks trying to hit on other men, hoping some elderly faggot will adopt you and you can live with them as a carer/prositute in exchange for some near geriatric ejaculating in your anus. Even if you won a lottery you would spend it all on overpriced, poor value brandslop logos and subscriptions, the little brain you have was completely overpowered by modern marketing, so much so you ended up a minion of it.You're the perfect example of the future digital slave, you will have to subscribe to get access to remote storage, cloud games, music, movies and computing resources accessed via terrible tiny screened, overpriced devices with awful specs deliberately designed to be useless for anything other that cloud access portals. Yet you will proudly display your slave brand logo as if telling the world you are a good slave before you go and let some geriatric ejaculate in your anus for food and then spend any time you have left spamming apple marketing idiocy in desperation to get another free sample because it means everything to you to own gank brandslop

>>108654266>it was a great operating system and (what would soon become) better operating systems borrowed from itYou wouldn't say that if you actually used it. Linux of 2026 isn't the same as Unix of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Unix was crap. Even MS-DOS was better. Read the Unix-Haters Handbook.
