I support this new containment thread. I never owned an apple device and I doubt I ever will, but have fun you people.
Hi
Is there an officially supported way to use actual Samba on the latest OSX? They phased out Samba to replace it with their own Samba-like protocol and it has some weird behaviors. For example, files created by Windows clients to the Mac OS server are in mode 700.

Why does apple trigger /g/entoos? Its just another tech company.
>>55400563
It's a thing. I won't get into details but I have to deal with this specific problem at my job and it is not in my control.
i demolished my iphone 5s on saturday
atleast it looks aesthetic
>>55400579
It's filled to the brim with paid shills and their products fucking suck. It's 2016 and they still haven't added support for a microsd slot, one of the most crucially basic requirements for a phone nowadays.
>>55400634
>one of the most crucially basic requirements for a phone nowadays
Why? they sell 128gb phones
Anyway, I dont think they suck. And even if they do, there are a lot of products that suck and they dont trigger anyone here.
>>55400654
>Why? they sell 128gb phones
Which is literally half of what the highest capacity microsd card out there. Not only that but most phones already come with 64GB of internal memory so that + 256GB microsd card = 320 GB total storage space.
>>55400579
because if you opt-out of the free software circlejerk you're a normie and that's bad
/g/ cares about image more than they think Apple users do.
>>55400699
>Which is literally half of what the highest capacity microsd card out there
Ok? but most people are fine even with 16gb, I dont see how that makes a it a basic requirement for phones nowadays.
Its a phone, not a laptop.

>>55400579
Literally sour grapes
>>55400735
>Ok? but most people are fine even with 16gb, I dont see how that makes a it a basic requirement for phones nowadays.
Not anymore. There's a reason those 64GB microsd cards are selling for as low as $15 a piece. People are buying them en masse.
>Its a phone, not a laptop.
Not anymore. Now you can torrent your favorite normies of thrones or yify movies and stream them at the same time. You can't even fucking torrent on an iPhone without jailbreaking it which is beyond pathetic.
>>55400761
>People are buying them en masse.
Source?
Torrenting on a phone is pathetic. People that watch movies/tv show on a phone usually use netfilix or something like that.
Just because you have 16gb on a phone doesnt mean you cant do that.
>>55400804
>Source?
Just look at the prices. If people didn't buy microsd cards so much then manufacturers wouldn't sell them so cheap.
>Torrenting on a phone is pathetic. People that watch movies/tv show on a phone usually use netfilix or something like that.
There are tons of movies and tv shows not available on netflix or something like that. Sometimes torrenting is the only way and protects you from buying dumb fucking shows or movies that turned out to be fucking shit.
>Just because you have 16gb on a phone doesnt mean you cant do that.
You can but you're extremely limited in how much you can download. That 16GB phone will come with ~12GB of actual storage space because the mobile OS will use some space and then ~4GB will probably go to apps. That leaves you with 7GB of usable storage space for torrenting (1GB for system stability). That's fucking nothing, a single 1080p YIFY movie can easily reach 2GB in file size. Download 3 of those + a few MP3 albums and now you're fucked.

That is not how economy works.
First of all, its not the manufacturers that say what the retail price is
Dont you think you are making a big deal out of this just because iPhone. I get that having a msd slot is nice, but its not really a requirement. Specially since your arguments are based on watching movies on a phone.

You're calling 90MB/s "slow". Think about what you are saying, 90MB/s means more than 5GB/minute. Sure it's not as fast as aplel internal nand storage but it's anything but "slow".
>>55401158

That card that anon posted isn't just any microsd card. It's built with V-NAND which is fast as fuck and extremely durable. In fact that "up to" rating is probably the sustained speed over time.

They are fucking cheap to make, that's all the price tells us. I doubt many phone users actually care for them, have yet to see somebody with more than a 32GB card in the wild.
>Sometimes torrenting is the only way and protects you from buying dumb fucking shows or movies that turned out to be fucking shit.
Sure but why doing it on phone, sorting shit on pc is way more comfortable, while torrenting on phone requires the phone to lying somewhere with wifi. Not exactly the point of a phone.
>>55401339
Wanting to spend $230 on a fucking micro SD card these days shows that he is dumb, which probably means that he is poor too.

This, why the fuck are you fags torrenting shit on a phone?
So how do you actually use iTunes? Whether I try to copy music from library to phone, sometimes it works right away, sometimes nothing happens. Also sometimes the shit restores deleted tracks even though I have "Manually manage music and videos" checked.

Found your problem.
>>55402799
we used these at NASA for our webserver for the longest time before they stopped making Mac Pros and Server hardware.
>>55403262
That's by design. Debian is better than OS X so now it won't let you boot into an inferior operating system.
>>55403262
I assume it's doing that because D comes before O.
You're going to have to find a way to manually select the OS you want. Try to find it by using google.

I dont see how that is worth all the security risks.
You cant even update the software when a new version come out can you? Can you go back to stock at least?
>>55410685

etc
>>55410718
>nothing useful
Sure some were cosmetic, but the file manager was useful and speeding up animations was a necessity.
>I dont see how that is worth all the security risks.
Just that was definitely worth it. I pirated apps too, so there's that.
>You cant even update the software when a new version come out can you?
You wait for a jailbreak or lose your jailbreak.
>Can you go back to stock at least
Of course
>>55410728
>You need to jailbreak that phone to do everything that any android can do out of the box?
Pretty much. It's a very nice platform given you can either get around or live with the restrictions but in the end Android wins because it's not as restricting. If iOS was as limitless as Android it'd definitely be the better platform.
>>55410787
>Sure some were cosmetic, but the file manager was useful and speeding up animations was a necessity.
Well, from the looks of things everything was cosmetic. How was the file manager useful? You dont really need a file manager on iOS.
>pirating apps
ugh
You belong on android, really.
Why would you even change how iOS looks? Its a perfectly consistent experience.
>>55410533

>>55410745

The latest flagships from all major android manufacturers are just as fast.
>looks good
Highly subjective. Though applels are built really well, their design seems uninspired. It's a rehash of the same shit every year
>better apps
To an extent, maybe.
No real reason to pay $700 for an iPhone when you can get the same for about $300-450.
>>55410841
>Well, from the looks of things everything was cosmetic
Speeding up animations sounds like it's just changing a preference but without it iOS is one of the most painful things to use I've ever experienced. I don't count that as purely cosmetic.
>You dont really need a file manager on iOS
You don't really need one on Android either, but being able to manage your files is quite nice.
>ugh
>You belong on android, really.
No, Android sucks too. What's the issue here anyway? Do iOS users have some pact to throw even more money away because their thousand dollar phones weren't enough down the drain?
>Why would you even change how iOS looks?
Because it's my fucking device and I want it to look the way I think is best, not the way Apple thinks is best.
>>55410870
>Nexus phones get all the updates instantly, on the same day they're released. Plus If you're not a normie, you can download the stock image and flash it before everyone else.
Even nexus get updated for 3 years at best if you're lucky. And where I live the new ones cost as much as an iPhone. I know apple is going to updates my phone until its no longer able to run the new OS.
>The latest flagships from all major android manufacturers are just as fast.
iPhones are faster actually.
>Highly subjective. Though applels are built really well, their design seems uninspired. It's a rehash of the same shit every year
Its way more consistent user experience. Apps look good and consistent with the interface. More practical UI as well (3d touch, swipe to return/ dedicate widget tab/on layered homescreen, etc). This is probably the biggest reason, android is a inconsistent mess.
And it doesnt matter if I pay more at first, iPhone hold value unlike any other phone. If I ever feel like changing I can just resell for almost the same value I pad for it.

>>55411131
It's been four years since I've used iOS, I can't give you specifics. I'm going to make a wild guess though and say I did use it for managing files.
>>55410963
I don't, that's the funny part.
>>55411131
Jokes aside, in the last few years I have felt less of a need for an actual file manager on my phone. So I'd be alright with a system like iOS, but I'm never alright with its pricing.
>>55411237
>I can't give you specifics
So hmmm yeah. Like I said in the beginning, nothing useful.
You would really only need a file manager if your phone was your primary device for some reason. I need a file manager on my laptop, but its useless on my phone.
what can i do?
>>55411325
It's almost as if some people have different needs for different things. And hmm yeah you seem to be forgetting about the system animations, far from just cosmetic.
Hey guys im considering the macbook air 13inch 2015 because theres a decent sale going on for them. How would the i5 model with 4gb of ram handle some audio work in Ableton Live for an extended period of time? And maybe some dota 2 on low settings? Thanks guys

>>55411361
Yes and yes. Though how much is it actually?
>>55411325
I would argue about adding certain files like PDFs, or music without iTunes.
But like >>55411350 said some people have different needs. For instance, some use their phones for emulation in which case they need a way to transfer some weird files from time to time.
>>55411350
I get that people have different needs but that doesnt make it less useless.
About the animation thing, your phone was probably problematic if that was slowing you down, should have taken it to the store.
I cant even react faster than my animations.

Hm isn't Asus 305 with core M? Dota would be painful on it over time.
Dell Inspiron i7359-2435SLV seems pretty ghetto with a harddrive and a 1366 x 768 screen. 1400x900 on Air might not sound like much better but the magic of 16:10 is very noticeable and it's one of the better TN screens.
850 isn't a super amazing price for it but given the alternatives, I'd still go with the Air. The battery life is godly, the trackpad is on another level and OSX is pretty nice once you got used to it.
>>55411648
They aren't even that similar. iOS is pretty limited and limiting. What do you expect from one?
>>55411648
The macbook pro is the only product worth buying from apple.

>>55411714
They make 305's with every intel chip under the sun. 5-6th gen i5/i7's also. And I pasted the wrong dell, they have ones with 1080p IPS panels too.
Im just concerned about the extended load on the air and the 4gb of ram, is osx a lot leaner than windows? Its the only OS ive never really used a ton, Im very familiar with GNU/Linux.

>Im just concerned about the extended load on the air and the 4gb of ram, is osx a lot leaner than windows?
Well, I had 2012 Air with 4GB RAM and always had 2-3 office documents open plus 40+ tabs and it was never an issue. Did some light gaming under Windows and beyond silly fan noise for tasking ones, it was all fine too. Gave it to sis now who works a lot with InDesign and PS and she never complained about performance either.
Not sure if OSX is leaner per se but I never experienced annoying slowdowns like on Windows with it, so it does seem to deal better with resources.

Under OSX it was perfectly fine and unnoticeable 99% of the time but once you do something tasking on Windows, it was mildly annoying.
