Any mac nerds wanna help with a weird one?

I've got an A1466 running 26.1, everything works except for mirroring (no t2) and apple intelligence (no neural engine) and the wifi(???)

So obviously I'm trying to get the wifi working, since it'd be a snowball's chance in hell for the other things to work.

IDK literally anything about macOS under the hood except that its darwin which is (kind of) a BSD, so I'm like way out of my depths here.

Plstohalpthx!!

AppleがmacOSのアップデートを重ねるたびに、古いMacのサポートは段階的に終了しています。サポートが終了したMacは最新のmacOSをインストールすることができず、特にmacOS Tahoeが最後とされた、Intel Macではサポ

I got an #OCLP install of #macOS #Sequoia running on the 2012 iMac, using an external 120GB SATA SSD in a Thunderbolt 2 enclosure.

It "runs", but boy is it slow! BlackMagic Disk Speed Test reckons it's writing at ~130MB/s, and reading at ~170MB/s.

I split the internal Fusion Drive and get ~200MB/s write/230MB/s read from the SSD, 200MB/s read, 170MB/s write. I have a 512GB NVMe SSD in a USB3 enclosure and get 400MB/s r/w on that, but the iMac won't boot from it 😕

Got a Mac Pro 6,1 as a gift. The "trash can" - 2013, 3.7 GHz Xeon E5, 32 GB RAM.

Installed macOS Sequoia on it via OCLP. Ran basically without issues.

Photos never do it justice. In person it's a genuinely beautiful piece of hardware.

Ah, result, Lightroom Classic 13 seems to work perfectly on #OCLP Seqouia with it's crappy Kepler GFX chip 👍

Well, further adventures with the #OCLP iMac running Sequoia are promising. It's settled down now iCloud indexing has finished (medianalysisd and suggestd were hammering it).

I've installed Lightroom on it; there's a little graphical corruption every now and again, but it disappears after a second or two.

@RonV42 The 2015 Macbook Pros are great for $150!

And they run Linux for the time after MacOS updates are discontinued for Intel (#OCLP)

What has Ample Computer done for us since 2015?
Nothing, really.

Dieses Script stoppt nervige „Update to #Tahoe“-Meldungen auf einem mit #OpenCore versehenen #Mac, der die bunte Glitzerwelt mangels #Metal-Grafikfähigkeiten gar nicht unterstützt. #OCLP #Legacy

@thiccpaws Puh… Did you upgrade to Tahoe? I think that’s yet still not supported by #OCLP. Or am I wrong? My old MacBook Air suggested to me that I upgrade recently. Thank god I didn’t.

Do you have your hard drive encrypted?
