Thinking I am referring to using a computer as not a computer is pretty ridiculous. A computer is a tool that in capable hands can do many things not originally expected by their creators.

I generally like macOS and agree that it isn’t locked down. I’ve used Apple computers since the Apple 2, but the first one I bought myself was an iBook G4 and later a Macbook Air. I haven’t kept close attention since MacOS X went beyond version 11 though.

Certainly not an all-inclusive list but some examples off the top of my head:

• Use industry standards like OpenGL/Vulkan instead of Metal
• run 32-bit apps if I so desire
• hiding config options like monitor DPI settings
• copy media to/from iPhone without iTunes or 3rd party apps
• extend the life of hardware by upgrading components
• reducing the life of hardware by soldering the components to the motherboard
• use another voice assistant or web browser engine in iOS
• virtualize their OS on non-Apple hardware
• run emulation or virtualization apps on iOS
• iMessage
• native backups on self hosted storage

Some of these have workarounds or 3rd party apps to handle. Others may not be a problem on all hardware models or is simply a EULA matter. Or Apple has a solution for it if you buy their product for it but if you want to use your existing hardware you’re SOL.

My concerns boil down to the choices Apple has made to keep you in their ecosystem and extract as much $$ as possible from their end users.

They just work (usually) if you want to use their products the way they want you to use them.

If you have your own idea how to do something on your own that’s any different, you will slowly go insane.

Is it really a good idea to add cracked games on Steam verses other methods of running Windows apps in Linux? I’d assume Valve could notice and take some kind of action against your account…

My old Motorola X4 used the headphone cable for its FM antenna. The radio didn’t work without it.

That’s my setup except I have a 3rd monitor in portrait orientation on the other side too.

And it pays for itself in less than a year
