@mimir oh that's sick and twisted i'm in
i have found where james dobson was buried. i may have a mission.
@ireneista yeah, that alone is a Problem. these days there kinda sorta exists notions of files in mobile OS UIs, but those _clearly_ exist as bones thrown to power users and professionals, not something they want to be a primary part of the OS and how you interact with it.
(and of course recommendations that involve a NAS or other human-managed server are... missing the point. sure, _i_ can do that, but i am a Nerd. and this only helps if i want to share files with A Fellow Nerd.)
you know something? while there is no technical reason file sharing between two devices should be hard, it is. the UX is, like, the only problem there, but it is a pretty big one. i can't help but feel like that should be fixed.
@0x09 sonnettech even makes a rack mountable combo unit for this exact purpose, if you want it to look nicer/be easy to rack mount
@0x09 that's not even much of an advantage, since there's outright nothing you can do with the M* mac pro you can't with a mac studio and a thunderbolt-to-pcie box, and the combo of a mac studio and pcie box is cheaper
@whitequark yep, always has been. even when the m2 mac pro came out it couldn't do anything a mac studio couldn't, and the mac studio's $3k cheaper
and now, the mac studio got a refresh and the mac pro didn't
huh. apple discontinued the mac pro. not announced a replacement, not stopped taking orders because a new model's coming down the pipe, just hard discontinued it.
end of an era, i guess, although the last mac pro was frankly a silly machine
@gewt looks so upset i just wanna give that kitty some fish
