Comment on European Union regulators accuse Apple of breaching the bloc's tech rules
Prandom_returns@lemm.ee 3 months agoThe 2011 MBP “supported” macOS isn’t receiving security updates anymore, for almost 4 years now. It’s pretty much an Apple Brick.
…unless you install an OS that continues to receive security updates. Insert penguin here.

Until last week it was running Sonoma. Then I put Mint on it, which somehow buggered up the macOS partition.
Long story short, it’s not run High Sierra for a couple of years now, not since I discovered OCLP.

OCLP is pretty darn cool, for sure. Note the quotation marks on the “supported”.
I’d rather anoyed that I’ve accrued so much Apple hardware passed down to me, which is absolutely mimt condition, but is “no longer supported”. It just means that the vendor no longer finds it profitable to keep it secure, and sort of shrugs it off; “just buy a new one lol, and bin your perfectly good hw”. Wasteful.
