I've always been a thinkpad fan.
Today, was offered a 15" macbook to work for a trendy startup, payed anything I want, office is in a kushy startup hub.
I didn't think twice.
What have I done? Can I get a tiling window manager on this thing?
Pic isn't mine.

>Can I get a tiling window manager on this thing?
obviously yes you can
even if you don't install linux on it, mac os x is a unixlike with a package manager (homebrew)
>>53269110
Followup: google search gave me a native tiling wm for mac in seconds.

OS X isn't a just unixlike, it is UNIX.
>>53269125
nigga no
UNIX is unix, os x and linux are unixlikes

>>53269125
No it's not, it's unix-based.
Also, Amethyst a shit if you're used to something like i3. There are no decent tiling windowmanagers.
I split up my iTerm 2 windows to get at least something similar but that's it

Close, but UNIX® is just the trademark, hold by The Open Group: http://www.unix.org/what_is_unix.html
>As the owner of the UNIX trademark, The Open Group has separated the UNIX trademark from any actual code stream itself, thus allowing multiple implementations.
>>53269159
Yes it is, it's certified UNIX.

I would get some latex gloves and some toothpaste

How does it feel to be retarded?
>>53269272
I don't understand this
>>53269274
You're the mac user, you tell me.
>trendy startup
you mean a sjw-run hellhole
>>53269092
Quit being a fucking dork and do your job using the best os
>>53269290
Holy shit you really are retarded. I never said I was a mac user, and I'm not.
>>53269291
100% white middle class males.
>>53269303
I consider working not managing windows constantly.

>he fell for the macshit meme
>>53269368
Oh, like you wouldn't take the job.
>>53269412
install gentoo
>>53269287
because it is a well observed phenomena that apple users eat shit with their hands
>>53269092
ask where the start button is.
>>53269689
That might've been a bit too subtle.
>>53269689
I laughed anon.

durr oh ess sex is Santa Cruz Operation. Same thing kneegrows

Pick one.

how's the mac's keyboard?
>>53270102
I haven't gotten it yet. I'm guessing it's shit.
>>53269092
>What have i done?
you have done well. OSX interface is great, if i wouldn't be so accustomed to tiling wm i would probably switch to osx with its comfy three-finger-swipe-to-switch-between-window touchpad gestures. Hell, it's actually closest thing to tiling wm you can sell to normies.
OSX interface is not bad at all, and i'm saying it as someone who uses i3 on daily basis. Give it a chance.
>>53270835
>swiping instead of pressing buttons
so it takes 3 times as long to do anything so that I can feel like Tom Cruise from Minority Report?
>>53270835
>OSX interface
>great
I love how most of the people on here who shit on Macs are broke malcontents enraged that their white skin and small noses hasn't gotten them anything worthwhile in life.
All they see is the price tag, they wouldn't know good engineering if it smacked them in the face.
They think Macs are rich kid toys meanwhile their laptops are cheap plastic shit running Windoze, used mainly for playing games, ironically.
The ONLY people I let off the hook are ThinkPad and Linux users. Everyone else can go to hell. Idiots.

I love how most of the people on here who shit on [thing I base my self worth on] are [shit I made up]
All they see is [shit I made up that I could easily refute if they believed]
They think [things which break my perception of self]
The ONLY people I let off the hook are [things which don't break my perception of self]
