What's the difference between a quick format and a long format? I always assume the long format would delete all your data (though I still never fully trusted it) cuz otherwise what the hell is it doing that takes so long?

Installing random Linux distros until your Wifi works is 100% the recommended way. 😄 But seriously, OCLP is probably the reasonable option for this Macbook right now, and in a few years Linux will become the best way to keep using it.

Weird problem and weird solution.. You dispose your HDD when it's minimally too-overspoiled with bad sectors (your still working/recoverable data can be between them. The trick is that in my opinion - you should be able to rescue such disk with doing sth you shouldn't - mess with him with strong magnet. You should try to reset dipols into position when they are got up again (both poles +/- are one over another) We are getting bad sectors because the dipols are - over time being stressed by our writing head very often without needing - they are already/still up and the head is making some magnetic 🧲 potential over it and sometimes they are acting like this screwdriver when we use the magnetising/demagnetising tool or like more potent ones - and then they are forcing other ones by attracting them. There is a number of them which when we get - they are acting like some atomic domino. We try to get em up but there is too many laying on each other for head to pick them up. We should try to get them up all at the same time but simultaneously not crossing the force value that will suck them from their workplace.

I think they are bogged down by the clean room reversing audits. If ReactOS became functional Mirosoft would still give them a hard time. So I guess the display driver didn't really work despite no errors. They have the same error as Windows of enabling smooth scrolling without a driver. I always extract all my drivers befor I put them in my collection. They are smaller and ready to install on new computers.

Use ‘shred’ or ‘wipe’ instead.

Koop gewoon een nieuwe bro, ik had ook de MacBook Pro 15' maar dan uit 2016. Heeft 8 jaar lang top gewerkt, maar begon langzaam te worden en kreeg ook geen updates meer. Heb nu twee weken de nieuwe M4 pro 16' MacBook Pro. Echt een aanrader, niet normaal wat een upgrade het is. Tuurlijk het kost wat, maar gezien de vorige 8 jaar mee ging, valt het als je het spreid alles mee en geloof me, je gaat echt blij zijn.

I know a lot of people won't like this suggestion, but i personally really like ChromeOS flex. I installed it on an old machine I had and it's a really good option especially if you only need it to surf the web. I think it's a good option for a lot of people, especially kids/ the elderly.

More like the sexy guy…

It’s been almost 10 years… give it up at this point.

I've spent 20+ years trying to get away from anything Microsoft. Last thing I want is a distro that reminds me of that spyware

A few years ago I tried Phenom X4 9950 with 16GB RAM, SSD and some Vega64. Not bad, only problem is low frequency

So do you think I can install it on my Dell Inspiron 6000 (2004 made laptop I think). 1GB ram, 80GB HDD Intel celeron I think

7:40 Hi, Ex-IT guy! I'm one of the Adélie developers. Chuffed that you've given our nascent distro a try; I'd like to address the browser question briefly. We have had some issues with Firefox portability that we've been rectifying specifically on the POWER arches; but it's our goal to ship a much more usable browser to daily than NetSurf. Also, we're working on Horizon (the installer) to fix a number of issues surrounding getting installation to work on APM drives; that work is mostly done and we expect to ship 1.0-beta6 in the very near future. We hope you'll give it another go, as we like keeping these machines running and usable for as long as we possibly can.

It is indeed frustrating, I have a late 2013 rMBP 13", and have also used OpenCore back when it was below version 1. It did help to extend the lifespan for a couple of years, I even upgraded the SSD to a 1TB from the default 128GB. However, one day, the laptop crashed, and I never managed to get back my data, and had to reformat everything. Now that I am on Sonama, while it is usable, the experience is not that wonderful. 8GB ram seems to be insufficient for it, and it constantly ran out of memory. I have also swopped the internal battery twice, once in 2020 and another time in 2023. I guess the 2013 macbook pro has reached its end of life.

I use a late 2015 MacBook Pro with 500 GB and I am sad that some apps don’t work anymore but there still isn’t really a problem yet

Counterpoint: Zero it out, ten passes of random overwrite, then place it upright on a large stone, smash it with the bucket of a 5-ton or larger excavator, then drive over it a few times with said excavator No-one will ever know what I stored on that spinning platter drive.

Can someone give me the file for the ventoy usb stick pls

My 2012 Macbook Pro still works fine. Just use it, don’t whine.

about snow leopard... i have a 2002 macbook lying around running snow leopard rn: but its too slow for anything. What should i do with it? I've tried booting up an mc server, but... obviously i needed a more recent vrsion of java. Ye i tried manually unpacking it but it still didnt work. Lesson learnt: a 2023 version of java doesnt support a 2002 macbook. Should've been obvious right from the start!

Apple should give some type of concessions.

I use imac 2013, still works.

Should be fine to login with your Apple ID. It's not illegal to run macOS Sequoia on an old machine. As long as it's not used commercially I guess.

The shred command, that some linux distros have preinstalled, can be used for basically the same thing too.

I'm as strong supporter of keepting Tech alive! I have a Dell XPS 15-inch from 2018!...that's running Fedora Linux just fine, and a Huawei Matebook X Pro from 2019 that's running PureOS with ZERO issues!.....let those who don't know any better keep on shelling out money for the latest version of "The Same Thing"...I'll stick with my hardware?....until they die a graceful death, and then?....they go in my wall cabinet of "Tech-I've-Owned"....to let others see the greatness of DIY / And Self Repair!!

I can’t get over the fact that this machine is 10 years old, I’m getting old 😭😭😭😭

just make sure they dont learn arch too early

I've been using Fedora for a while, and even on older laptops (HP probooks, etc) it detects everything. It even runs pretty well on a mechanical drive. So far, Fedora hasn't let me down in regards to getting it installed on any computer. And it just works.

It will be usable in 2089

...8 hours later. 4% finished.

Just 1 developper cannot do much.

OpenCore works surprisingly good

Windows 11 worked because Ventoy already has those workaround/hacks placed in.

I have a 2015 Macbook Air that I am using every day for web browsing, word processing and journalling. I am keeping it stuck at Catalina as to me it is the most optimum version that has just the essential features of Mac OS and iOS integration without crawling my Mac. I am double booting it to Windows 10 sometimes which runs much better than the Mac OS so that I can use my Microsoft Office license (rather than buying the Mac license). And.. I have installed Linux on it with great success. I have upgraded the SSD myself and replaced the battery on my own too. I see no other reason NOT to use this laptop in 2024. All that I wanna do now in 2024 can be done with a computer from 9 years ago. It's user upgradable, it has better ports selection and even has an SD card slot that some entry model Macbook now lack. It felt sluggish when it pairs with a newer Mac OS but runs blazing fast with the Mac OS that comes with it. Typical Apple tradition and fact. My only wish for this laptop is that it runs cooler and it runs longer on batteries - which the M processors can help with. other than that, I am keeping this one for longer.

i used my main apple account on my sequoia hackintosh that i updated from big sur to macos 15 i had to use legacy patcher because it was a 4th gen intel and apple didn’t do anything to my machine or account

The old key to a bit wallet on that drive be like (^ω^)

Smashing is way faster

I smell the dutch

Old wipe programs can be undone. Not a big deal for regular data, kinda important with classified stuff though. So, the NSA shreds the entire drive. Literally. Thermite remains #2 and my stand by. Great to overwrite the drive with molten iron.

4:14 bootcamp saves you from broken WiFi

Welcome to the club, 2013 MacBook Pro 😔

ASAHI TIME😊❤

0:53 Trust me, I use this on my 2011 mac mini and it works absolutely GREAT, accept for slow start up times. May need to upgrade your hdd to a ssd. Just saying.

Can dban it too

i still use my 2015 MacBook pro

Thanks for the update.

I have a 2020 intel macbook pro 13 inch but it kinda feels slow running latest mac is it worth trying linux

Can you try android apps on linux

I use my Apple ID on my mid-2012 MBP on OpenCore sequoia 16, perfectly fine.
