Et voilaaaaaaaaaaaà encore un iMac mi-2011 sauvé de l'obsolescence d'Apple grâce à OpenCore patcher 1.4.6
Cet iMac i5 12 Go RAM et SSD Crucial de 500Go va encore rester des années en service chez une personne âgée qui ne souhaite plus tout réapprendre à 80 ans.
Sa machine sera à niveau pour continuer à lui donner de l'autonomie numérique.
@LaKorin@attilax c'est top moumoute #OpenCore 1.4.6 te permet de monter un iMac 22'5" de mi-2011 en Mac OS Monterey (max sonoma mais j'ai pas osé) au lieu du blocage en Mac OS high sierra imposé par Apple.
il te faut un très bon SSD genre un Samsung format 2,5" au lieu du 3,5" harddisk d'origine et 12go de RAM minimum jusqu'à 16go maximum en DDR3 4*4go.
La procédure est super bien faite, tu crée une clé USB bootable avec l'outil qui te télécharge et fabrique la clé en mettant l'os installeur.
Cheannaich mi #MacMini 2012 bho Amazon ‘son £68 na bu tràithe air an t-seachdain seo ⁊ bha ioghnadh orm nuair a ràinig e gun chomharra sam bith air. Dh'àrdaich mi an HDD 500GB gu SSD 1TB, an RAM o 4GB gu 16GB ‘son £70 ⁊ chleachd mi #OpenCore Legacy Patcher gus an tionndadh #macOS as ùire a stàladh air. Tha mi air a bhith ga chleachdadh fad an latha ⁊ gu ruige seo tha coltas gu bheil e ag obair gu foirfe.
This makes me distrust Bluesky even more. For those who don't know: "Open Core" is basically for those who think even "Open Source" is way too radical. They bullshit you by claiming to be all about "openness" and "inclusivity" to distract you from the fact they want to sell you #proprietary software.
Hm seems that 2010 server mini isn’t going great with #OpenCore Legacy Patcher. Windows are laggy after applying the patches & reboot just as if I didn’t install them. Apparently that Nvidia 320M isn’t recognized properly or something .
An "Open Core" business model consists in proprietary stuff put on top of open-source software. The company builds / maintains both but only gets paid for the additional stuff — typically a managed service, or add-ons of some kind.
My question: does anyone know of an example where the additional, proprietary stuff is a library? Ideally in Python?
"Overwhelmingly, our users made it clear that they chose AlmaLinux for its ease of use, the security and stability that it provides, and the backing of a diverse group of sponsors. All of that together meant that we didn't need to lock ourselves into copying RHEL, and we could continue to provide what our users needed." #almalinux#rhel#centos#opencore https://www.linux-magazine.com/Issues/2024/278/AlmaLinux
Si vous avez plus d’utilisateurs, vous passez directement en « période d’essai de 30 jours ».
C’est vraiment vilain comme procédé, c’est même pas une version majeure, si vous suivez automatiquement les mises à jour de la version 6, vous allez être impactés.
Hit a brick wall with #OpenCore this morning. Sonoma hangs on login, and when I boot into the Ventura partition and try to reinstall 14.1 it just tells me that I can’t downgrade the OS on that volume.
I’m sure as shit not running the 14.2 beta, so fuck knows what’s happened.
Sonoma 14.1 is now available, so I’ve run the updater on the work Mac. Despite everyone saying “Yeah, you can use the regular updater with Opencore” it NEVER works for me. But still, maybe this time it’ll work.
It did not work.
So now I have to fuck about figuring out why, then inevitably having to repair it with a USB installer.
Quite pleased to have gotten #opencore legacy patcher running #macOS#Sonoma on my recently unsupported 2017(!) 27" iMac this afternoon.
These can be a PITA to instal #oclp on because of the crappy fusion drive in them, but I was already booting off an external Thunderbolt SSD anways, so install was easy-peasy
Should get a few more years out of this hardware now, until #Apple finally drops Intel support altogether…
Working from home today with just the MacBook Air (no external display) so decided to take a tip from @DJDarren and give SideCar a go with my 7th Gen iPad....and it works really well!
I've extended the Mac's display to the iPad and can throw apps onto the iPad screen that I like to have running to keep an eye on and do my main work in the laptop screen. The picture quality is great and there's not a lot of lag
Delighted to find that Widgets are working perfectly on the #Opencore enabled #Sonoma install that's running on my work Mac mini.
I was under the impression that opening the Widget picker could cause the OS to bug out and slow down, but I've just tentatively tried it and it's perfect. I'm even running one that's coming from my iPhone.
Amazed to discover that the team working away on Opencore Legacy Patcher already have Sonoma support (in beta) for almost any Mac made since the 2012 introduction of Metal graphics.
So, in theory, I could put Sonoma on this 2014 Mac mini before Sonoma is even in full release.
It took a good few months after Ventura dropped for them to offer support, so that's incredible really.
Debating picking up a 2019 27" iMac with a high end config at a cheap price. I kind of want to experience working with a true 2x desktop display and figure that its got at least 2 years left of OS updates. But then I look at the benchmarks vs a simple M1 mini…
@paul@chockenberry The #OpenCore Legacy Patcher works great on my old iMacs. Running Ventura on old Macs (~2011) making them again compatible with iCloud sync.
Just fine for the kids doing school stuff.
「 This spring, open-core team chat vendor Rocket.Chat moved its read receipts feature from the free open-source version to its enterprise offering without warning, deeply upsetting some users. Rather than acknowledge the change, the release announcement touted it as if this 2018 feature were brand new 」
