Amethyst posted:loving swiftui is out, a new declarative ui paradigm and you ABSOLUTE LOSERS are talking about the stand There are no autolayout or “what’s new in cocoa touch” sessions (though the is an appkit one).. SwiftUI is definitely the future. Marzipan/Catalyst is basically already outdated.

pram posted:how does this make any sense in your head. obviously nothing on macos depends on cuda since there hasnt been an nvidia mac for almost a decade. if someones buying this then they already use a program that has metal support lol a lot of 3d and motion graphics people have been holding out (way too long) for good gpu rendering on a mac. redshift and octane finally coming to metal is good news but lmao at waiting for that when you don’t know what the implementation and support is going to be like and pay a starting price of $6000 for a config with pos video card

Boiled Water posted:usually when buying enterprise workstations you also get support better get applecare so you can lug your $6000 mac pro to an appointment timed at apple's convenience at the apple store that's an hour away it's amazing that people pay apple prices for google's level of support

nope you definitely dont have an account rep with a corporate account on apple and special attention if you spend 200k on computers with them

Why doesn't Apple have an optional hovercraft base for the new Mac Pro. They expect my computer to touch the filthy ground while it is being moved?

people don’t buy $6k machines, companies do. a company that has a use for these kinds of machines has no problem paying that much for it, that is the low end for workstation pricing. it sucks that there’s no affordable Mac desktop. but this wasn’t supposed to be that.

the affordable mac desktop is the mac mini oh wait that’s like a 1000 dollars but still the price of the pro doesn’t really surprise me

The Streacom DA2 (AnandTech review) makes a similar style frame case for PCs, the ever so popular Linus recently did a review. Looks like the new direction for flexibility in builds.

I'm interested but only if it boots OS8 OS9 breaks compatibility with too many After Dark screensaver modules since they removed support for compressed resources.

I think the 200 dollar VESA adapter is more insulting than the stand, tbh thats just a "gently caress you, dumb bitch" to the consumer. there's no other way to frame that
