A new security feature with Catalina: “macOS Catalina runs in a dedicated, read-only system volume — which means it is completely separate from all other data, and nothing can overwrite your critical operating system files.” :hmm:

Certain recent career moves brought me back into the (modern) Mac framework (still have an OG cheesegrater and Xserve kicking around). I had completely sworn off the iphone and the ipad buttttt.....

Yeah for the smaller guys it makes sense but I just lost a CC sub through my previous employer and I looked at replacing it and it's just loving stupid. Yeah, I'd like to have the functionality and its nice when its there but I can't justify 50 bucks a goddamn month.

I don't know what the thread consensus is on Alfred, but after coming back to daily driving a Mac after nearly a decade away, it was one of my first installs. I had never bought the powerpack because I thought it unnecessary but this workflow absolutely made it 1000% necessary and will save me so much goddamn time posting on these dead gay forums. http://www.packal.org/workflow/latest-clipboard-image-imgur-uploader It automatically uploads the clipboard image to imgur. Beautiful. Fairly quick, too, seems snappier than using their webapp, probably using an API call of some sort. I'll just have to get used to *CTRL* CMD SHIFT 4.

eames posted:What's the best hypervisor to use in macOS these days? Veertu used to work great but seems to have been discontinued. What is your intended use case? Veertu is still around, they just are focusing on Anka, which is more geared towards ephemeral VMs for CI/CD, using Minis for worker nodes, which if you're just trying to run windows or linux on the desktop isn't really a solution. Thread consensus seems to be to stay away from newer versions of Fusion.

nitsuga posted:There’s something weird with the licensing I thought. Basically, you have to have it entitled to your Apple ID to get it via Recovery. You might have to install an older OS then upgrade to El Capitan or make an installer using another Mac. Yeah with the move to ElCap there can be some weirdness with Apple ID if you didn't initially setup the machine there because of the provisions of Apple ID.

Outlook (for Mac) is one of the worst goddamn abominations ever written. The ancient plugin system doesn't help it. I get at least a random crash a week that also doesn't send the message when trying to create Zoom meetings that are sending an external invite.

That's also not including Microsoft's general QA decline in the past few years, but that's a separate problem which Apple is also suffering from too. Are you using the same win10 everyone else is? Or do you have a special use case? Cause osx shits itself far more on my work machine than my win10 machine has in the last 3 years.

Yep, when I'm working from home, my mac stays open on my desk only to take Zoom calls because I don't have a USB camera on my desktop. Outlook for Mac is a war crime. The 365 webapp is nearly better to use.

Yes, though this isn't just a Catalina thing, they've been making this push for years now. The next major Macbook update will have an ARM processor.  ~Coxy posted:Please let me know any relevant info that you have! What's your actual hardware platform? Mac Pro 3,1 can do it with the usual kext mods you can find with a google dosdude but idk any complications if your hackintoshing, etc. If you're using it to game there may be additional complications I haven't run into.
