That’s exactly what I mean. It all depends on what makes a company big tech.

If it’s just having lots of money or capital then it’s really hard to divest oneself because of the phenomenal heights of industry required to make chips. Like, on some level you gotta accept that no one’s doing 14nm lithography in a shed out behind their house (people who do home lithography are in the micrometer range last I looked).

LPIC-1 my butt, op!

You can always just use an m series mac if you don’t want to support Intel or amd.

It all depends on how you define big tech.

The framework risc v board, for example, uses the StarFive JH-7110 which is manufactured by tsmc. Doesn’t get much bigger than that!

Specs for what?

The hardware you run it on will have a range of specs.

The model you try to use will have a bunch of measurements that can be called specs.

Once you pick some hardware, the measurements of the model you run on it can be adjusted for “accuracy” or speed.

Of course, the range of hardware that’s available to you informs that calculus.

The alternative to answering this post is to get a Mac mini or whatever they’re selling as a desktop llm device now and not mess around.

There are about a million ways to do what you’re asking. Which one is the right choice depends on the particular hardware you’re using and what you want to accomplish.

Yes it works good if you read first and plan and follow the instructions. If you just yeet it into your computer you will have problems.

You may end up doing a reinstall as opposed to a patch or upgrade.

You may find that dynamic wallpaper not working, needing to update with command line, photos app can’t edit and needing to use a third party browser is an okay set of tradeoffs to get to sequoia (macos 15) which still gets point updates and security patches (grimly: for now).

If I was using a 10,1 I’d back up my system and jump straight to sequoia with oclp. If you can get by long enough to save up for a more recent computer (m1+) then that’s a win. Sequoia is the last version of macos with support for Intel processors. Now is a bad time to be running old versions.

E: before oclp the linux wisdom for these models was to go in with a soldering iron or a chip clip and disable the dedicated gpu in order to avoid problems with it. Often it would break the hdmi or DisplayPort or whatever video out port was on the side of the laptop because while the integrated display could run off the intel processors gpu the video out was hardwired to the dgpu.

Your computer is MacBook Pro 10,1 and pro 15” retina mid 2012 a1398.

The relevant technologies are ivy bridge, intel hd 4000 and nvidia Kepler.

According to opencore legacy patcher, you can use Ventura (osx/macos 13)with broken live text if you go the opencore route.

That will most likely offer a better experience than linux on your hardware.

You have a bunch of answers including one you chose, but you can always rebind the tmux key to something compatible with your terminals search and use [key] - d to disconnect from your tmux session then invoke it with tmux attach-session to get back into your session.

on attach it should clear the screen, print the stdout buffer it accumulated and give me stdin prompt, that’s it

The last part of the above, disconnecting from tmux and reattaching would do what you described. That may be useful if you need to work with tmux.
