Who do you blame for having to follow the speed limits? There are tons of rights you don't have. Yes, people do bad things and you suffer for them, that's life; you didn't learn that in grade school?
1) iOS represents a large part of the market for mobile apps. Therefore I cannot ignore it.
2) If anything is custom, you can order the module.
3) Why are you limiting my freedom on what I can and can't do just because I don't like the policy by which it is done?
5) 6) So if you upload some music from your system at home to your phone using "FTPClient" you may be able to play it in the built in music app, but you won't be able to install VLC, or any other media app and access it. As far as I know the only way to upload a common music library is through the Apple platform. Also what happens when you click on a PDF in safari? Does it list the various PDF readers you have installed to use with the PDF?
Well shoeshines have been done by rotating brushes since the 70's. Sure, hair stylists may still be in business. Except now there are ten times as many people flooding that industry because there is nothing else to do, so everyone is making dirt for wages. If there are even enough positions for everyone.
And, from the article:
"Many Linux distributions are able to run very nicely on a Mac, though there can be challenges to installing and configuring the OS."
Which is what I've been saying from the beginning.
Command line and scripting: Cygwin or Powershell. It's not Microsoft's job to tell me what database engine to use, so of course it doesn't come with one.
I actually asked if it was possible yet. It's not that it was impossible before, but you had to do all kinds of things for EFI and it was too difficult to be worth it. Now apparently there is a utility that does all those things, but it still begs the question; why do Apple devices always have to be so different? I was shocked that it didn't just work like any other Intel laptop.
If I purchased a microwave that didn't do everything the other microwaves did, you can bet I would be upset that I couldn't reprogram it. Although it wouldn't get to that because I would just go back to the store and buy a microwave that does act how I would expect. Seriously? You find there is that much variance in the functionality of microwaves? Any how, I can't do that with my macbook because of #1 above. Apple is completely free to make their systems easy to use; but they don't even seem to try to strike a balance between beginners and power users.
1. I was forced to buy a mac because I wouldn't have been able to develop for ios otherwise. Many people buy Apple for various reasons, it doesn't mean they agree with the limits it places on them.
2. I have a person in the family who fixes Thinkpads. I can tell you, every part is replaceable and available. You don't need any special tools. There, I've imagined one product.
3. That is true, so compared to Google, Apple is limiting me in some way which is basically what I said in the first place. Now I have to accept all of Apple's shit because I want to develop in both major mobile OSes? This gets better and better.
4. Didn't know that, fair enough. Maybe they really do have courage, even though it took them long enough.
5. Again, too little too late. (can it smb or nfs or scp?)
6. Ok I didn't mention iCloud because that's worse than having to use iTunes. I don't have to use anything in the cloud with my android phone. I just open a browser and connect with smb or ssh.
7. Apple didn't move on anything until they got a better deal.
1. Using an adapter is not convenient and doesn't allow you to charge the phone while listening, 2. Doesn't work with anything else, so basically useless, 3. See number 1.
So? We all know that Apple is great at pandering to the majority. That in itself is one of the problems with the company; if you have a slightly uncommon use, most devices will we workable in some way. An Apple device will fight you, even though they sell some of them as *professional devices*.
I see things differently. Google's tracking doesn't interfere with the use of my device. So while, yes, that's bad, I think the far worse evil is to sell a device to a person and lock it down so that they have to use it a certain way. Maybe your use for your phone doesn't require you to jump through the hoops that Apple forces you to jump through a lot, but I find it unbearable.
I find Apple's 'cleaner' interface often gives me problems. Sometimes I need to know what directory I am in, and most finders will show the absolute path. Apple wants to hide the absolute path from users so they force me to do contortions to see what directory I am in. I don't like having to press every modification key on every menu to see all the options, I just want to see all the options. I could go on.
One thing I find particularly rough in OSX is the fact that the finder 'views' aren't even consistent in functionality. You have to be in a list view to shift-click a range of files. Can't do it with icons.
Not to mention they don't exactly provide other ways to share files with other devices. On Android, every file exploring app will have samba and various other network sharing protocols built in. Even en OSX the samba integration sucks.
OSX doesn't work any better than Windows 10. Sure it's going to work better than Linux, but that is a bad commentary on Linux, not a good one on OSX. Likewise, I don't see technically illiterate people having more trouble with Android than iOS.

I can picture a machine that businesses could buy to wash and sterilize straws, but it might not be very good for the environment.
So if I hailed them through their app they would not come?

Ok well I guess macos has more installations then Windows then.... oh wait.
They are also bad at understanding pixie dust, but that doesn't mean your post makes any sense.

I've figured it out. There is actually an option to open a 'path bar'. That's not something I'm used to having to look for.
You need to be looking at why the touchpad has shitty drivers.
I have the same version and there is nothing at the bottom of my finder window?

One thing I find particularly rough in OSX is the fact that the finder 'views' aren't even consistent in functionality. You have to be in a list view to shift-click a range of files. Can't do it with icons.
Oh so as long as Apple pays 'a lot' that's enough then? As long as they pay more than me I should just look the other way?
Not to mention they don't exactly provide other ways to share files with other devices. On Android, every file exploring app will have samba and various other network sharing protocols built in. Even en OSX the samba integration sucks.
When the Macbook Air was released, it was breathtaking.
Wow, dude, it's just a laptop. You really need to get out more.
