Why does /g/ hate Apple computers so much?

overpriced weak hardware and it's a sign of low intelligence too
>>54092935
that's only because you're a retard. if you weren't, your preferences would be different.
I just recently bought a 2015 rMBP 13inch 256 GB for $1200 flat
Most ultrabooks are around that price but what Apple has going for it is the fact that it holds its value really well
Try selling a PC after its been 4 years as opposed to a Mac
>>54092874
I'd rather fuck a trap than own an Apple computer
>>54092952
>it's a sign of low intelligence too
Making an intelligence classification on weak to no real signal is a sign of low intelligence.

What are you basing this on? Most of the people I know in high skill careers (research, programming, etc...) are using OS X (and consequently have to have MBPs or something (sometimes MBAs)).
Is it possible you're basing this on your experience watching your younger sister and her friends from afar and thinking that they must be representative of the whole population of Apple consumers?
Whatever you say ;:^V
>>54092874
They're alright, I probably wouldn't go out of my way to buy one though (can't really justify the price, plus OSX is too locked down for me) but if someone gave one to me as a gift I'd use it.
Because they're shit. Not only overpriced but have shitty hardware, OS, specs, and overheating problems because "muh thinness".
>>54093022
Depends on the field. I see no OS X in CERN videos and I've walked around the Freescale and Oracle buildings in Bucharest, they don't deal with OS X either. if you're talking about meme startups and babby / nodejs tier coding then yeah you'll find alot of that because OS X is idiot proof.
I'm going into computer science and was thinking about getting a Macbook Pro
Is there any other cheaper PC alternative? Most people in the CS program I am attending all have Macs.

So in response to my question, you're telling me that you're basing this off of videos that have incidentally shown computers at the edges of the frames?

I'm in the engineering school of one of the top universities in the world (in general, in engineering, take your pick) now and I think something like 90% of people use macs as their primary machines. Everyone remotes into linux machines, but their primary computers are running OS X.
>>54093295
retina shit is a waste of time and space
who gives a fuck if the text looks sharp when you could have more space?
Expensive for what you get and I'm not a fan of the OS.
Also muh games
>>54093325
>Expensive for what you get
This kills the macfags.
Worship the OS all you want, the hardware is still overpriced. It's a fact that you can always get a more powerful machine for the same price if you don't buy an Apple product.
>>54092874
I don't. Some of them were ok, like macminis.
But I don't like any other of their products. Overpriced, underspecced, throttled, all design and white/aluminium gay shit.
The only thing I would ever get an apple machine was if I needed to test stuff on OS X, and I wouldn't want to bother with a hackintosh. So I would maybe use a 2nd hand macmini for that.
But other than that they're useless to me. I'd rather get an intel NUC with high specs than a mac. Much better choice, because you can actually upgrade it later.
>>54093322
are we actually doing this?
people that read and write text care about text looking sharp. for example, people who write code for a living.
seeing more text on the screen doesn't add anything except to give you *more* context, and it's not clear that having more context than a 1080p display and normal-sized text provides is at all helpful.
I could understand the argument that you might want another thing on the screen (like documentation) for reference to glance at while you're coding, but honestly between having more real estate and having sharper text, you should optimize for sharper, more readable text. Get a second monitor (as that guy did) if you want a secondary screen to show stuff like docs.

>>54093351
this is a false statement. in every case when a new apple product comes out it will be better priced than buying each component. for example, the mac pro would've been 1.5-2x more expensive on the time of it's release had you built it yourself. and you get it in a nice form factor and it's absolutely silent!

people that read text for a living want to be able to fit a lot of it on the same page without having to scroll.
and text is sharp enough on desktop screens that you will never have difficulty reading normal sized text, and odds are you will never even be able to see any of the pixels in text.
>>54093386
>time
because you have to scroll around and resize the text to make it fit on your screen
>space
both physical: 4k monitors tend to be big
and virtual: you can fit more stuff on the screen so you don't have to scroll around or alt tab
and no I don't hate apple, I'm not even talking about apple specifically. I'm talking about hidpi screens in case you couldn't follow along properly

So if you're serious, you turn the screen vertically. How much are you looking to see in one glance anyway? Have you read any of the studies on how much text people can read at a glance, or research on optimal reading conditions in general?
>text is sharp enough
at ~90ppi? go in and look at these monitors side by side. we've been having this exchange since 2012 and people like you seem never to have actually seen the shit you're talking about. go look for yourself. bring your glasses if you need them (or go see an optometrist if you haven't yet).

I've owned both the 2013 and the 2015, and I have used multiple other retina macbooks, and I can say from experience that the hidpi part of the retina macbooks are worthless.
yeah there's a slight difference and it looks a little bit better, but is that worth going from say 1440 to 1080p effective? fuck no
hell it wasn't even worth it to go from 1680x1050 effective on my 2012 macbook pro to 1440x900 on the retinas when I had them.

>OS X is based on UNIX, which is essential for the work at CERN. A large fraction of the work on ATLAS and CMS involves writing code (mostly C++ and python, but other languages are used), which is compiled and executed with a UNIX terminal. Therefore, a Linux or Apple computer is almost mandatory; a few people use Windows, but they have to do a lot of extra work to get a working terminal.

You'd have to be bordering blind to not see pixels on normal DPI desktop monitors.
I have a 27" 2560x1440 monitor at work which is higher DPI than average and the pixels are very easy to see. When sitting next to the rMBP it's plugged into the pixels border on looking like bricks.
>>54093638
nothing kills a career shitposter. his original point was that nobody at CERN uses macbooks and he has had no response to the evidence that most in fact do. except now he's making a big deal about how nobody gets his stupid jokes. and somehow that makes everyone else retarded, and not him.
>>54093648
>You'd have to be bordering blind to not see pixels on normal DPI desktop monitors.
at normal viewing distance for a desktop screen (1-3 feet away)
I highly doubt that

lel, you've been reacting just the way I want to my bait, you guys need to lurk more and learn something on trolling. cheers! xd
>>54093664
Yes, I sit around 2-3 feet away from my monitor and text is quite visibly chunkier and less legible than on the rMBP's display. I can see the pixel rows that the characters snap (or at that DPI, smudge) into.
It's plenty usable but there is absolutely a difference.
>>54093703

Company-provided 27" Thunderbolt Display. Same exact display panels as those used in the formerly vaunted 27" IPS Dell 2560x1440 Ultrasharps. It's not cheap shit. And yes, it's running at full 2560x1440.
Trust me, I'm not shitting you at all. I want a 27" display for home quite badly right now but can't justify it because 4 and 5k displays are still expensive but 1440ps look like ass to me now.
>>54093806
no idea how your 1440p display is so bad, but I can only see the screen door effect at about 1.5 iphone 6s away, and sitting normally (3 feet away) I can't even tell the difference between my retina macbook and the 1440p

also from what I found they seemed to CONFIRM what I was saying, especially since display scaling wasn't a thing in 2003.
>No significant differences were found for mathematics scores, but verbal scores were higher with the larger resolution display.
you know what you can do with a high resolution screen? fit more stuff onto the screen.

Apples target demographic are not computer enthusiasts, certainly not the people you'd find here on /g/. They are for tech illiterate people who are looking for simple AIO solutions that are idiot proof. That's not necessarily a bad thing, just something that isn't useful to tech people who can benefit from having more complex and feature rich systems.
>>54094075
I write software for a living and arguably would benefit from those extra features. In fact, I even used a giant workstation laptop for a while for that exact reason.
I now use an rMBP and most of those features aren't missed at all. The biggest thing I miss is more USB ports and a hotswappable drive bay, but the latter was only useful occasionally. That's it.
Worth noting that I liked tinkering with linux distros before I started a full-time job as a developer but now that I'm working, coming home and dealing with the various little idiosyncrasies of a linux desktop is just not appealing at all.
>>54094075
>They are for tech illiterate people who are looking for simple AIO solutions that are idiot proof.
this desu senpai
Apple knows their target audience, and that they're dumb enough to way overpay for their ignorance. It just so happens that you don't need a lot of technology literacy to become wealthy which is why you see high profile celebrities who have no idea what a file system is use Apple products.
This is also why macfags and iDiots will never be welcome on any technology forum.

>>54094147
>i hate technology and find it a chore rather than find it interesting

ok kid
>>54094169
The issue was less with maintenance and more with getting everything working properly and the way I wanted it to. XFCE and Cinnamon came closest to what I wanted but little stuff was unconfigurable or buggy, so I tried going with Openbox+tint2. This was mostly OK but I never could get the volume widget working right and tint2 liked to randomly die for no reason.
>>54094182
I enjoy technology but lack the energy to enjoy technology that must be incessantly poked and prodded into working the way I like. Maybe one day when I've moved into private contracting and work on my own terms that'll change.

I use a terminal for personal use on a regular enough basis that a non-*nixlike would've been an impedance (not so much now with Winbuntu or Ubundows or whatever you want to call it). I'm not particularly fond of Windows window/workspace management facilities either.
>>54094377
Fair enough, but I'd say you're in the extreme minority. Which is kind of what this thread is trying to drive home. The vast majority of tech people will use some combination of Windows and Linux.
>>54094013
Typically research doesn't get revisited if the principle holds, and we know enough about eyes that we have a grasp of the extent of the effect of higher density displays.
If we needed to prove every incremental difference to satisfy retards who can't understand the principles being discussed in the paper, we would never get anywhere.
Using a Macbook Pro Retina 13" at the moment. It's over priced as fuck, for sure, there's no getting around that fact but you get a device with a fucking amazing build design, keyboard is great to type on, touchpad works amazingly with great integration with the OS, pretty great battery life, Unix based so you can actually ssh into a server without having to download third party shit like in Windows.
I have a 50GB Xubuntu partition that I can dual-boot into but to be honest I haven't really needed to yet. As a device that is really just used for browsing the web, consuming media, typing up documents for Uni and doing some beginner programming it does the job perfectly.
The windows laptop experience has been pretty shit for me so I had the option to go OS X and took it, and it's been great so far. Anyone who buys a desktop Mac is probably retarded, buying their tablets probably just as retarded (depending on your use); but their phones and laptops are probably the least retarded products to buy in my opinion - not AS big of a rip off compared to the prior.
Worst thing about Apple products is their fucking planned obsoleteness.
>make a good product
cool
>charge an insane profit margin compared to the rest of the market
not cool
>after charging that huge margin purposely make your products slow down like fuck over the next couple years
just a total cunt move
I expect that as time goes on I'll probably end up using a GNU/Linux distro more and more often.
>>54095015
which products are apparently going through planned obsolescence? The iPhone 4S is still technically getting the latest updates (meanwhile the Google Edition android phones from the following year are already second class citizens and not getting Marshmallow from Google), and the 2012 rMBP is still very usable (assuming the battery capacity isn't shot, but that's just wear and tear, not planned obsolescence).
Tablets are similarly holding up well; if you have the first retina display iPad mini, you probably haven't had much reason to upgrade (unless you desperately want touchID).
I think Apple used to be better at selling their new features as must-have, and that made everything feel sort of forced. Steve Jobs was really good at making your devices feel shitty a week after he revealed their successors. Apple has been pretty terrible at it since he died.
>>54095058
>iPhone
>>54092874
Overpriced hardware, useless fisher price OS and planned obsolescence. Their products are a fashion statement for tech illiterates.
>>54093767
Poor people don't understand the concept of value for money so they waste money on apple products because they want to look rich.
>>54094147
Linux doesn't need to be maintained unless you're a ricer, just keep it minimalistic. I do everything in the terminal through a tiling window manager so there's not much to maintain.
>>54095086
Spikes indicate poorly optimized software that gets worked out. If you had been paying attention (or just alive) during those years you would be aware of the growing pains of iOS coming out to old devices and people complaining about it for a month or two.
Steady growth, as illustrated with the Android line on the bottom, is the worse issue; it seems to depict the bloating of an operating system and the shrinking resources of the android devices on the market.
The fact that the iPhone searches drop to ~10% above the previous threshold suggests that the issue gets resolved (unless you mean for me to believe that all those iPhone users are re-upping every year, which we should both know without saying is not the case).
>>54095058
I was rocking an iPhone 5 up until a few months ago (upgraded to 6S), and when it was jailbroken it ran just fine. However, as soon as I updated to the latest firmware I noticed a significant slowdown. From my experience (with iPhones at least) Apple tends to optimise their software for the latest two models of phones and then leave everything else behind to slowly die. Probably a mixture of wear/tear, age and a little planned obsolesce in my opinion.
I think the older laptops main problems were their HDD, we'll see how long this Macbook Pro Retina lasts with it's SSD.
>>54092933
This. Besides the majority of /g/ is poor, so sour grapes and all.
>>54095179
We live in a world where our options are
>sluggish performance (iOS)
>flat out "No" on the update (as with Android)
I'm not sure what the practical implications of planned obsolescence are if the alternative is unplanned, but my hunch/experience is that I can at least plan/optimize around planned obsolescence. I'd prefer neither, but we don't seem to have that option.
>>54095179
I did a clean install of iOS 9.3 on my 4S and it runs a lot better, almost as good as my 6S. Some hiccups while browsing and loading some apps due to slower Flash memory. But it will hold up to everyday tasks just fine.
The reason most found it slow is that they're keeping configs and files from all the way back in iOS5.
>>54095179
My iPhone 5 was running smoothly on iOS9 last year tbhfam but it was a clean install.
And its a 2012 phone ffs
>>54095232
Yeah I agree, we need some new options as far as the majority of the markets are concerned.
>Phone options
Latest iPhone flagship or latest Samsung flagship
Could of course go for a Nexus, OnePlus, LG, etc, etc but most of them are second tier phones anyway
>Laptops (for general use, not for gayming)
Macbooks are a great choice if you can afford it
Otherwise you're stuck with some shitty laptop running Windows; with a subpar touchpad, shitty keyboard, runs at a thousand degrees, loud fucking fans, lacking any useful features for a productivity laptop (I've had bad experiences with fucking Windows laptops)
>Desktops
The only good products as far as choice goes. Can pick and choose what you want to suit your needs/budget, can load whatever OS you want onto it (even OS X with enough effort), plug in any peripherals you like into it
The phone market needs to get some new contenders which make sleek, elegant phones with good specs and a unique OS that brings something new and useful to the table.
The laptop market needs to either do the same or go in the direction of desktops. Maybe you would buy custom chassis of all different build qualities, stuff it with whatever components you feel necessary, attach whatever type of display suits your needs, whatever keyboard you want, copy the macbook pro touchpad to every laptop because it's pretty much perfect, etc, etc. Problem is laptops are so small and are continuing to get thinner and more powerful that it would be hard to make a 'standardised chassi' or something to that affect.

>>54095315
Yeah mine was definitely usable besides a few hiccups here and there which were usually fixed after a reboot.
My 6S at the moment though has kind of fucked me over. When I got it for the first couple months I could literally touch my finger on the scanner for a fraction of a second and it would read and unlock my phone. Ever since iOS 9.3 it stopped reading my finger accurately, 1/3 times I'll have to use passcode to get in. Tried resetting my finger print like a million times with all different angles and shit and it doesn't seem to help it

Same here, the TouchID2 sensor is fucking garbage. I have to wipe it each time I use it or it won't register my finger.
The TouchID1 on my iPad Air 1 still works just fine.

Any ThinkPad

It was lightning fast when I first got it and now it's so unreliable. I got a taste of heaven and now I've just been thrown back down into reality - fucking TouchID

Bite the bullet and get the new Macbook Pro Retina, so fucking nice
>/g/ is now full of macfags.
Okay I'm out of neo-4chan.

Because they're for normies.

woah, you brought up a lot of awfully specific shit that came out of nowhere. are you projecting some hobbies?
>>54095948
That's a lot of projecting.

denial isn't only a river in egypt babes, don't worry, this is 4chan, even your kind is accepted.

this makes sense. /g/ is basically a hipster forum for faggots who think they're unique snowflakes, and the idea of their favorite thing being mainstream drives them crazy.
Thinkpads were loved on /g/ until they started to attract more mainstream appeal. Now everyone talks about how much better Thinkpads were back before they sold out and whatnot.
It sounds exactly like music hipsters who suddenly hate musicians as soon as they appear on late night talk shows and shit

I think you think you've made a connection with some people here; you haven't. We're just morbidly fascinated by your apparent obsession with gay furry sex
>>54095948
Do you let them cum inside you?
