I'm thinking about the new MacBook Pro 13" non-touchbar and it excites me. I think I'll buy one. Maybe two, one for my wife.

YA BOY ETHAN COUCH posted:bro I have a late 2013 mbp and it doesn't have Ethernet. you guys are really reaching here nah, as i have noted i think the usb-c swith is a rather good idea, and using a dongle for ethernet is fine. the double dongle solution is just careless by apple though, they had all the time in the world to get a proper solution in place the additional whining-looking post was just in response to the helpful apple community offering their standard advice of "lol you don't actually need that you idiot"

i assume apple only kept it up to see if they could make google make a router, then giggled and shut the department down actually a bit sad since it remains a product category packed with absolute trash, apple exiting is unlikely to help matters

time capsule is gone too as part of this - i guess time machine will be removed from macOS in a few updates?quote:The central reason for abandoning the AirPort line appears to focus mainly on its small revenue gains in comparison to the company's more lucrative products, like the iPhone. Apple includes its routers in the "other products" category of its annual financial results, a section which generated $11.1 billion in fiscal 2016, or about 5 percent of the company's total sales. this is pretty hosed up with the automation guy leaving, plus the now the routers are going - the apple ecosystem is being destroyed to focus on what, phones? how is the company hiring people like crazy yet running into issues keeping small teams around? do they not get that the whole tightly integrated ecosystem was one of the key competitive advantages apple had? or are we all just gonna buy 2TB icloud accounts now and backup into the

lol this is such a loving stupid move. Apple features are a pure crapshoot on anything but the airport. after I moved AirPrint wasn't working. first I found out that the firmware update that my router did while I was setting it up automatically blocked Bonjour multicast. re-enabling that allowed it to work on wired devices but wireless was still not working. turns out that many netgear APs just silently drop all mDNS requests over wifi and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it short of loading dd-wrt onto it. also killing time machine is a giant gently caress you to anyone who isn't able to use the  like someone on a slow or metered connection.

also, i mean, icloud is not offensively overpriced on storage, and it is certainly better backup than another device in the same house, but it is hardly cheap or fast compared to just offloading stuff onto a disk in another room
