Just wait 1.5 years and enjoy the apple cloud..
- dreamcompiler 5y agoYeah no. There was a time (early 2000s) when Apple made half-decent server hardware and operating systems. Those days are over. Apple has vocally abandoned the server market, and trying to use MacOS as a server today is an exercise in futility. Too many things require the GUI, and Apple's intense focus on security theater makes everyday server operations a nightmare.
- criddell 5y agoWhat's an example of something that requires the GUI?
- dreamcompiler 5y agoAllowing full-disk access, turning on sshd, repeatedly clicking "OK" when you're asked "Do you want <freshly-compiled yet unsigned app> to accept incoming connections?" If there are CLI ways to do this stuff I'd love to hear them.
- criddell 5y agoI think there probably are. I know sshd is controlled through systemsetup[1]. sudo systemsetup -setremotelogin on [1]: https://ss64.com/osx/systemsetup.html https://ss64.com/osx/systemsetup.html
- jbverschoor 5y agoI'm not talking about macos.. I'm talking about becoming an energy efficient cloud vm provider.
- GhettoComputers 5y agoWhat is the criteria to meet energy efficient?
- jlawer 5y agoAs someone who has worked with Apple "Enterprise" / "Business" / "Pro" products before..... I'll wait. It will start half decent, get a push to 90% of everything you need and then slowly get rewritten simplified to a level that is too basic to do any real work or just abandoned.
