I had to search for how far back support goes for Sonoma, and it was surprisingly short.
I think Apple is intentionally shortening the support cycle right now to get everyone on ARM chips for a variety of reasons. They come with neural cores and are incredibly fast to their predecessors.
It’s tough to change architectures, and I think we’re frustratingly caught in the growing pains right now.
Can you name a major commercial OS that doesn’t do this?
My BSD and Linux installs will run on anything, but last I checked that wasn’t true of Windows or especially Android.
(Okay, you can technically install Windows on old machines, but is so incredibly bloated now that it’s impractical)
Haha this is so true.
This is 70-80% of my thinking as well. I purposefully held out for an M1 Pro for a couple extra years. I expect it to be good for at least 5.
I run Al Dente on it, and the battery is still sitting at 100% health (I ordered mine on release day).
It’s light years ahead of the Lenovo X1 I had been using, which lasted me quite a while.
I think generally you are correct, but I’m wondering if they are going through the “normal” certification process or utilizing some potential loophole.
We need to find one of these people and interview them! 😜
I had another comment, but I know of municipalities where you can get an exception to drive golf carts on roads. Some people have used this to purchase Chinese EVs and liberally stretch the allowed driving zones.
I don’t think necessarily. For example, I know I can register certain electric motorcycles as street legal in the US (maybe just certain states?) without undergoing any kind of inspection. I’ve also seen people import “crate” electric vehicles that can be plated through certain clauses.
I’m not sure what EU regulations are like comparatively.

I thought it was “machine learning” 😂
Anyway - most of the communities seem pretty tolerant of moderates (there are dozens of us) unlike some other instances.
I don’t think any sane person wants to see children on either side harmed.
good luck with that
I think instance blocking in 0.19 will help dramatically.
