Right next to Mr.Macintosh was Superstar64! He had an exhibition dedicated to Intel Macs, with a line of MacBook Pros starting from the first Core Duo (Jan 2006) all the way thru the last major design iteration, the TouchBar model.

Os problemas tavam em todas as distros pq os drivers necessários não estão no kernel, então fiquei na Ultramarine que é minha preferida

Pra resolver wifi, iluminação do teclado e touchbar usei
github.com/DeyAgrO/macbook-pro-13-2-linux, e para resolver som usei github.com/davidjo/snd_hda_macbookpro

pior que não, o driver da touchbar não tá no kernel mas é tranquilo, o de som também

o problema mesmo é o wifi e o suspender/hibernar (acho que algo relacionado a ao ssd dormir e não voltar)

deve ter algum firmware muito chato relacionado à touchbar que só cansou todo mundo

It has a better chance than the Vision of being successful. I honestly do think it will.

But "analysts get all excited about how the latest Apple product is going to change the world" is practically an annual event. And to do that they just memory-hole all the missteps. (Remember the touchbar?)
I mean, maybe?

It will make them more visible, sure. And there are a lot of cheaper foldables that will likely benefit. It could certainly turn out to be another Apple Watch.

But we were also told this about the Vision Pro. And well, that hasn't exactly set the world on fire.
iPhone Duo will usher foldables into the mainstream, just as iPhone did with smartphones; sources: iPhone game controllers will launch under the Beats brand (Mark Gurman/Bloomberg)

Il Duo è la touchbar uscita dalla porta e rientrata dalla finestra. i
Inoltre può già essere usato come un piccolo pc con tastiera.

One reason I still like open source: Pock.

Pock is a open-source touch bar. Display macOS Dock in Touch Bar.

→ Full source available on the repo link.
→ Released under open-source.

By self-hosting Pock, you stop paying for proprietary Touc...

I was not aware that anything beyond M1 ever shipped with touchbar but apparently M2 13 inch did. That surprises me.

oh yeah and I made might’ve seemed like I’m using the MacBook touchbar

Me siento muy contenta, al programar, aplicar mi parche de seguridad intermedia y programacion para poner mi macbook pro touchbar, del año 2016, para que se quede en una version de raiz del 2024!!

"If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?" - Anton Chigurh asking the Apple design team how the fuck we got to this Macbook Pro touchbar bullshit.

I feel like touchbar needs vibe coding to be useful since no one really made their own interactions or tools for it back then

a great thing that was just a bit too early on the tech tree unlock path

I was so disappointed with the Touchbar. I wanted to like it. But I think changing focus to a different kind of screen/UI, on a different plane was just too mentally costly. Forgetting what I was doing because I had to stop and think about where the damn volume buttons were made me furious.

I want a laptop with a programmable row of keys across the top that I could set to any unicode code point and that have little oleds in them to show me how they're mapped.

Basically I want my TouchBar back.

I guess the newer MacBooks are boasting 16 hours of battery life, and given I've been actively using my laptop for 9 hours after my mother kidnapped my charger and I'm still at 65%, I believe this. But why no touch bar? Why possible reason does anyone have to buy a MacBook with no touchbar?
