i love how the ram is connected to the potato, standing straight :) pardon my english
It must have been a mix-up between "component name" and "how to install".
Yeah it's just jabbed in end first at the scientifically most chaotic angle.
I think macOS and windows have to swapped 🤔 macyoS seems to run less bloat in background
Significantly less bloat for sure. I do like that there is the MicroWin project that exists for windows though.
Yeah ddinitely needs image swap, or this meme would make more semse if it said $ instead of requirements. MacOS is unixy and doesn't require super specs
😁macOS is even more Unix than linux (BSD kernel)
Linux is like Unix and MacOs is (a) Unix system
Recent news about running Linux on intel 4004 be like
Isn't a 4004 a 4-bit ALU?

Holy dissertation, Batman!
Potato optional
I looked into running potatoless ages ago and didn't care for the tradeoffs that come with running hamster wheel. You have to change the potatoes every so often, but at least they don't shit everywhere.
(Oh, I assumed pictured was a potato CPU, not potato PSU)
Anyways, as long as you don't make the mistake of using runny ((s)mashed) potatoes, it should be fairly ez.
Have you ever tried Linux on photosynthesis?
That sounds like it runs Mint, or genetically modified SUSE.

Apple's requirements should be a pile of money, a big pile of money.
A pile of money on fire
And then Apple refusing to repair it due to "water damage"
It's funny people still think this, they just replaced nearly my entire M1 MacBook Pro that was completely fucked because of water damage. Literally everything but the display was replaced, I basically have a new computer at the cost of $300+whatever I paid for AppleCare+ when I bought it ($400, I think?), which is significantly cheaper than buying a new one would have been
Not to dissect a meme too hard but I'm pretty sure the ram is supposed to go pins down into the potato.
Yup, but once you do that, it'll run Linux just fine.
Lightweight distros need less than 1GB of RAM, so you don't need to use the entire RAM.
It is amazing how little you need to have a functional system. I have a OpenMediaVault / minidlna server using NAS ARM board that only has 256MB of RAM, and it isn't using all of it, and doesn't need to swap.
This is a triumph. I'm making a note here, "HUGE SUCCESS".
Its hard to overstate my satisfaction
How are you holding up?
Because I am a potato
It's hard to over-state my satisfaction
Aperture Science, we do what we must because we can.
For the good of all of us; except the ones who are dead :(
Missed opportunity to make trashcan joke about macos.
Trashcan Mac is good tho, as compact and quiet Linux machine it is
They’re almost down to a price where I’d consider picking one up just because I think they look awesome, and are reasonably easy to max out their spec. Trouble is, that maxed out spec might tip its benchmarks over my M2 Macbook. Might.
Xeon 2696v3 is good with it's 18 core 36 threads, this cpu cost around 45$ on AliExpress too, also top up 128gb ram and it'll be great homeserver
Out of interest, I just looked up the actual benchmark scores.
A ‘13 Pro with a Xeon 2697v2 scores 4891 on multi core
My 15” M2 MacBook Air scores 9735 on the same.
It’s astonishing how much Apple leapt ahead when the M-series chips dropped. Sure, the Intel machines on macOS still have their uses, (I’m typing this on a 2014 Mac mini that I use for work), but Apple have done an incredible job of flooding the market with solid hardware to install Linux on.
