Apple Mac OS X 10.4.1 for Intel hits piracy sites


Recommended Posts

When Microsoft is just trying to fight in its 3 battles Apple is winning 2 and starting an advanced war:

Microsoft:

1 - Longhorn must be finished sometime in this decade (Too ugly to be true);

2 - MS needs to invade the music market, but how?

3 - MS is only software and it can be pirated.

Apple:

1 - Tiger is running and making Windows users dream;

2 - Apple dominates the music market;

3 - Apple is hardware and uses OSX to promote the plataform.

Who's winning and who needs help?

:whistle:

LMFAO

" * First, you have to obtain a copy of GAYNIGGERS FROM OUTER SPACE THE MOVIE and watch it. You can download the movie (~130mb) using BitTorrent.

* Second, you need to succeed in posting a GNAA First Post on slashdot.org, a popular "news for trolls" website.

* Third, you need to join the official GNAA irc channel #GNAA on irc.gnaa.us, and apply for membership.

These GNAA guys are freaking hilarious -- Trolling slashdot, outspace? Jesus, This people are genius. LMFAO!!11one!!111

Well, whether is has been, or will be, leaked completely aside, it would be good if Apple DID release a special DEV only edition for us poor schmoes who'd love to try developing for the Mac, but cannot afford one...

Apple say they support open-source. They could help that along if they did this. Fine, make it limited, don't allow updates to it, don't provide support, but at least give us SOMETHING so we can develop for these machines! Hell, charge us for it if you want, I just want to try the thing and see what it's like to program with.

Plus... If current x86 users could try it out for a while (time limited copy?), there's a good chance when the Mactel models ARE released, people will buy them instead of a new Dell, especially if you can run Windows on it too!

Microsoft:

1 - Longhorn must be finished sometime in this decade (Too ugly to be true);

2 - MS needs to invade the music market, but how?

3 - MS is only software and it can be pirated.

Apple:

1 - Tiger is running and making Windows users dream;

2 - Apple dominates the music market;

3 - Apple is hardware and uses OSX to promote the plataform.

Who's winning and who needs help?

Apple = 2.5% market share

Windows et al = 97.5%

Ehm, who needs help?

You obviously don't get out much. Seriously, have you ever spoken to a girl without giving her your credit card number?

this is interesting

wonder if they allow hotlinking..

we'll see..

What codec is that .MOV file boss? My QT is choking on that one. I'm going to subscribe to this thread, but I'm hoping the install only looks for an Intel chip since I'm rocking my A64 :)

Ha ha ha! Oh gosh that's funny! That's really funny! Do you write your own material? Do you? Because that is so fresh. You know, I've, I've never heard anyone make that joke before. Hmm. You're the first. I've never heard anyone reference, reference that outside the program before. Because that's what the dog said on the show right? Isn't it? Without giving her your credit card number. And, and yet you've taken that and used it out of context to insult him in this everyday situation. God what a clever, smart boy you must be, to come up with a joke like that all by yourself. That's so fresh too. Any, any Titanic jokes you want to throw at us too as long as we're hitting these phenomena at the height of their popularity. God you're so funny!

That could be PearPC.

It did look kinda slow.

Really? I thought that was a pretty fast boot-up really.

Also, I'm thinking if these are basic Intel systems, or included basic Intel drivers, it'll be pretty easy to emulate the hardware at the very least.

One thing I have noticed in that video is the fact that the mouse cursor at a point jumps from the top left corner to the right side...also there are a bunch of real Mac's in the back of the screen they could have just somehow mirrored the screen.

well There is still one possibility no one yet raised!

what about emulation, if OSX x86 is going to be hardware locked, can't it be emulated, & without need for altivec & ppc instructions it would just fly!

Just think about those sad PearPC devolopers who just don't really have a project, now, will they continue to bang the dead horse & emulate PPC, or will they just start working on a version to support OSX on our lovely PC's!!! :devil:

Sure it could be a mirrored display but the video editor would have to go back in and modify each frame to say "Intel" instead of PowerPC.

PearPC also emulates a G3 so in that case About This Mac would say that.

I'd be really convinced if I saw System Profiler in action.

    • Thanks for the info, but I'm still not sure if I need this....
    • We check out the SKG PS700 Neck Massager by Steven Parker I was offered the chance to test out the SKG PS700 Neck Massager, and full disclosure, they let me keep it regardless of my findings. Anyway, I jumped at the chance due to my long hours sitting at my desk; I figured it could offer some neck pain relief. What's in the box: SKG PS700-2 Neck Massager Rechargeable Battery (inside massager) Type-C USB cable User Manual Quick Start guide 1-Year Warranty In short, everything you need to get started. According to the official listing, here are the key features: Biomimetic Kneading & High Torque Motor: Designed with innovative biomimetic kneading heads that perfectly simulate the touch of human hands. Powered by a high-torque motor, this massager delivers powerful and precise deep tissue relief to effectively target stiff neck muscles and release built-up tension Soothing Heat & Integrated Sound Relaxation: Experience the ultimate Relaxationation with our dual-action approach. The soothing heat function gently warms your neck, while the built-in sound Relaxation provides calming audio tracks, helping you achieve a state of mindfulness and mental tranquility during your physical massage Cordless Convenience & Travel-Ready & Father's Day Gifts: Crafted for maximum portability and ease of use. Its lightweight, cordless design allows you to enjoy a premium massage anywhere without the hassle of tangled wires-whether you're taking a quick break at your desk or winding down at home Versatile Relief for Home & Office: An essential wellness companion for office workers, gamers, frequent travelers, or anyone looking to integrate mindfulness into their daily routine. It seamlessly fits into your lifestyle, providing instant neck relief whenever and wherever you need it Safe & Premium Materials: Manufactured with high-quality, skin-friendly materials to ensure a safe and comfortable experience without irritation. SKG backs this device with dedicated customer service, making it a thoughtful tech-health gift for family and friends App & Bluetooth Music Control: Connect via Bluetooth to control your massage settings through the dedicated app and enjoy your favorite music during your massage session for a fully customizable and immersive relaxation experience Red Light Warmth Technology: Features advanced red light warmth technology that penetrates deep into neck muscles to enhance blood circulation and provide soothing comfort while relieving muscle tension and stiffness Design With all that out of the way, here are my own findings. SKG does not say what materials are used to make the neck massager. However, on the product website, it mentions "soft-touch silicone" with what looks like PU leather cushioning, with the rest being mostly made up of plastics. On the inside of the massager, there are two "biomimetic kneading heads" that are motorized for the different styles of massage, which are not actually listed at all in the paper user manual, but the standard included modes are: De-stress mode, Mediation mode, Relax mode, Shiatsu mode. The massager looks quite premium and is actually very comfortable to wear. This massager is small and light enough to go anywhere, as it doesn't get in the way of anything, so I was able to use it in the chair while writing this review. Unlike the back massager, SKG does not warn in the user guide not to use it for more than 30 minutes a day (or two 15-minute sessions). However, there is a long laundry list of important safeguards to consider before and during the use of the device, and it is warned that the neck massager is not waterproof. It also includes a 1,400mAh battery with a rated power of 14W and input of 5V, which is the standard for up to USB 3.0 power (although the Amperage is not mentioned at all). SKG does not say how long it takes to charge, but a quick calculation at 2A (if that is what it is) would mean it would take roughly 1.5 hrs to charge from empty. In any case, the light around the button changes from orange to green on a full charge. In addition, it is not possible to use the device while it is charging. On the right of the neck massager is the On/Off and modes button, which also acts as a joystick. You can operate all the modes directly from the power button, as well as the app, which I'll get into a bit later: Push up: Short press to adjust Heat levels On/Off button: long press Mode Switching: Short press (while in operation) ➕ Push left: increase Music volume ➖ push right: decrease Music volume Push down: Short-press to turn Music on or off The massager defaults to De-stress mode, and it is not stated anywhere if the neck massager has overheat protection. This time around, regarding heat, the only detail I could find is that it has "triple action soothing heat." The temperature stages are not listed anywhere in the paper manual, Amazon listing, or official website. The heat levels can be adjusted through the app or directly on the device using the joystick button. Usage There's also the SKG Health app, which makes using the massager far easier than feeling around for the button on the side of your neck. If the app is stopped, you are required to log in with a verification code over email, which I am not too pleased with, as this means it will only work that way for however long SKG decides to support it through said app. However, I was not able to get the app to connect to the OS500, which I have reported back to my contact. Bluetooth appeared to be working on the neck massager as it became available to pair with my phone, but the SKG app failed to discover it. Before I forget, there's also a switch next to the USB charging port to deactivate and activate the Voice Prompt, which, when enabled, audibly tells the user when switching intensities, modes, or connecting to the app and informs when the massages start and are completed. That said, on to my likes and dislikes, which are listed below. What I didn't like Unable to connect the Neck Massager to the app Use through the mobile app relies on continued support from SKG What I liked Can be used without the app Cordless use Light and comfortable to wear Heat is also quite comfortable Where to buy: According to the official website, this has an MSRP of $249.99, but is currently $50 (on Amazon). To sweeten the deal a bit more, there's also an in-page coupon that knocks a further $20 off the price. SKG PS700-2 Neck Massager for $179.99 on Amazon (was $199.99) Apply the in-page $20 off coupon for the final price of $179.99 Just like the back massager, this gets a confused thumbs up (due to the cost). However, I cannot rate it through app usage as it failed to connect. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
    • This Samsung T7 external SSD deal lasts less than a day by Sayan Sen Recently we had covered some nice deals of internal NVMe SSDs which include the 4TB TeamGroup G50 for only $400, the WD_BLACK SN7100 2TB for just $243, as well as the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB for $370. If however you require an external SSD for portability and quick data transfers and have a budget of less than $200 the Samsung T7 1TB model is currently on a limited time deal at just $190, it's lowest price in nearly three months. The deal ends today so you better hurry if you need one (purchase link below). The T7 weighs in at just 72 grams meaning it should be fairly easy to carry around helping in the portability department. Via its USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface the T7 promises sequential read speeds of up to 1050 MB/s and writes of 1000 MB/s. It is also fairly robust with a drop protection of up to 2 meters, though bear in mind that this is not waterproof. For that you will have to choose the rugged T7 Shield.

    • I just wish they would put more love into Virtual Desktops. There is just so much more they could do.
    • Sounds like you just skimmed over the review, I answer all those questions in it. Although I admit I did not test if DTS works over the headphones, when I get some time I will test this. My personal use case is more speaker-driven (I cover this in the review too).
