“When there’s a will, there’s a way” heheh when you said that I grinned, so true

8:06 ummmm you need to do you research mate AMD RYzen processors are fully supported on OpenCore I am on a RyzenTOsh right now. you don't need an intel machine any more to do a Hackintosh.

[GeoNeilUK]

It'll be a lot harder to build an ARM based Hackintosh, though I can imagine someone hacking macOS to run on the Raspberry Pi and adapt from there for other ARM SBCs!

So exit the Hackintosh, enter the Apple Pi?

Seriously though, if Apple decided to release a Raspberry Pi style ARM based SBC, Apple Pi would be an awesome name!

This guy is an excellent host, the way he presents the ideas, clear accent, the speed he talks, and outline of the video are just right, and he does this with little or no editing.

Hey Titus, you should cover hackintosh in a separate channel! That way you don't risk this one.

Back in the day we used to call them the Macintrash :)

7:56 WRONG. You can have a hackintosh with a threadripper with 32c/64c. Opencore is giving you a way to install an all amd hackintosh as clean as with intel cpus. So you wrong there!

I had so many years problem with Windows especially PC building. Windows pretty much robbed my precious productivity time just to troubleshoot.
Once I got iMac in 2013, my productivity increase and never worried about anything but focus to work. This iMac will still working for another 4 years.
That's how good Mac is.

I really love your videos. I left Windows and went with Linux after been influenced. And I am happy cause I am now better at programming and hacking. Thank you for your videos.

Thank to you Chris I switched to Linux on all my home computers and even on my work laptop. Life is great again!

ARM architecture allow for proprietary extensions to the CPU, I suspect that apple will incorporate extensions to not only prevent hackintoshes but also running Linux on these machines.

Honestly I'm all for ARM taking over on the laptop space. I'd love to see ARM laptops that could be impossibly thin, no fans, massive battery life, etc.
You have to admit, X86 is a beast of a platform these days.
Things like the PineBook Pro intrest me a lot since i love small laptops that pack a punch for a cheap price.
and I'd love to see Linux ARM adoption get much better as a result of the ARM switchover.
one thing i want apple to do is to combine their MacOS and iPadOS together so when you're in ipad mode you've got that ipad interface, but you put it on the keyboard cover, it becomes a full mac computer. I hope they do that down the line.
I mean the high end phones these days could easily compare to a laptop in performance these days. I don't see why windows/Linux/mac couldn't harness that power and get massive batteries or massive battery life out of them, or both.
I know I might not be the popular vote, but i have to say from apple's perspective, it makes perfect sense.
One more thing... I would love it if apple still built in bootcamp to allow you to install ARM linux/Windows. that would be neat, but knowing apple, they'll probably lock it out.

and one other possibility i see happening, is a huge shift toward ARM laptops. You've already seen this happen with apple removing the headphone jack and offering a wireless headset as a replacement to the loss, why not ARM laptops running windows or linux.

I'm pretty sure we will be able to build a Hackintosh even on the arm, running inside a VM of course, an ARM emulator for X86 / X64 won't be that hard to build

[estevao]

Shoutout to everyone watching this on macOS running on non-Apple hardware

[daveindezmenez]

One small point to bring up. Those OpenCore computers being sold did not actually spin off of the OpenCore project. There merely tacked on the name and the people of the OpenCore project are unhappy about it. I heard that the computer website is no longer working, so it might have been the scam many have suspected it of being.

[rickbhattacharya]

So if someone make an hackintosh on raspberry Pi, will it be called apple pi ?

[luxembourger]

Technolli is a great Hackintosh Channel

Ryzen work so well on opencore.
You can install on a Ryzen system, you can install on all Ryzen system... So easy.. One EFI to rule them all (Easier than using Intel actually).

[NomadicDmitry]

I remember the early days of the Hackinstosh when there were no such installers. Those all were pre-packaged systems and each upgrade caused some problems.
You also needed to manually copy the "mach_kernel" for the necessary system when needed. Usually I ended up upgrading the system, but leaving the same kernel version. Man, this was all crazy.

The Big Sur beta 1 will boot on a Pinebook pro but no audio, and the graphics are very glitchy. The keyboard and touchpad doesn’t work so you have to use a external usb mouse & keyboard but it’s Wi-Fi card should work if someone would write a KEXT for it since it is a Broadcom card but as of now it doesn’t work. Only native Apple apps will run and nothing else will install but it’s a start. Sure it’s not a 9900k but this could be fun. Pine-Macs!
