    i think it is possible

    there is an app for macOS, called al dente, that allows you to completely bypass the battery at any battery percentage rate, and many users that use their macbooks always docked take the battery out, so they don’t damage it by keeping it constantly at 100 % charge

    edit: i’m surprised none of these ci servers use VMs with hackintosh, probably would save them a lot in hardware costs 🤷‍♀️

      A large company doing that with their servers is probably a lot more likely to get sued.

      TIL. It’s actually pretty interesting that you can do this in software though.

      Tried doing a hackingtosh VMS server to build iOS apps at previous employer, 4 of us failed lamentably and opted to buy a macbook. It is a nightmare to virtualize or pass the the VM all the USB and proprietary connectors and stuff.
