    case study into proprietary connectors and e-waste

    • marshmall0w2 on 09/09/2025 - 20:13

      Amen. Though still a lot of pre-M1-gen MacBook still around on FB Marketplace

      Magsafe was a very innovative solution early on. Arguably Microsoft led the barrel jack laptops, that was e-waste.

      It was the same with lightning vs micro usb

        Yup. The hate on lightning was deserved, but it was hated due to Apple's MFi program, which made it prohibitively expensive.

        Hardware-wise, it was far more durable than MicroUSB.

      Can cut off plug/ change it. Get adapters from AliExpress for not much…edit - just looked…$6 if you want to make this an 85w USB C (might be one of the cheapest ever).

      I think the magsafe is a good design…but get your point.

      Maybe a base of USB C, and then adapt to magsafe would be better….but it does mean USB C gets all royalties/ becomes monopolistic…and a USB plug becomes $235.

      So…grab a $6 adapter and keep on truckin..

        link please..
        my google-fu is low today, all I can find is USB C to magsafe

        • tunzafun001 on 09/09/2025 - 21:35

          On my phone at the moment. Looks like Temu have them, not Ali. Sending Temu links are a nightmare. I'll jump on my PC later and send them.
          *Ali probably have them as well..just Temu came up straight away. I assume you want magsafe 2 to USB-C male?

      I like MagSafe. The little LED on it alone makes it worth it. Snapping it on instead of plugging it in, yanking it off. That's truly living compared to steadily lining up a USB C and sliding it in, like you're carefully turning the keys on launching a nuclear missile every single time.

    • eddyah on 11/09/2025 - 21:40

      Replying to myself - i never said ANYTHING bad about magsafe.

      I'm mearly pointing out the charger itself doesn't have a USB C outlet (like the newer ones do) that allow for any cable to be used.

      85W is great, but you're limited by the connector.

      Crazy considering the AC end can be interchanged so why the feck did they not just put USB C at the other end…

    I'm still running my music stuff off an ancient 2014 MBP, a couple of these will definitely come in handy. Cheers!

  • mskeggs on 09/09/2025 - 20:38

    I have a couple of older macbooks that are still very serviceable with opencore legacy patcher.
    I like the old 11inch form factor of the MacBook airs and the MacBook pro from circa 2012 with i7 but normal Simms and ssds is still fine for office tasks.

    • prankster on 09/09/2025 - 21:51

      Yeah I have a MacBook Air 11” bought in 2013 and I love it. Perfect size screen but they don’t do that anymore, minimum is 13”

    and it's gone

  • ilove on 09/09/2025 - 21:22

    how many people got one?

    • seriousquokka on 09/09/2025 - 21:35

      Ordered one using my 2015 retina. Thanks op.

      • Focus8 on 10/09/2025 - 00:24

        Oh wonder what’s your use case?
        I also have a spare one, but just stopped using it when it became jerky while connecting to a 4K monitor.. like 5 years ago ?

        I should have sold this earlier 🙈

  • valid online persona on 09/09/2025 - 21:24

    "This product is no longer available". Ah well.

  • Maths Debater on 10/09/2025 - 00:04

    So I suppose we all have ancient MBP's?

    • deliriouss on 10/09/2025 - 00:15

      The thing is, even the ancient MBPs are fit for light use/as a spare. I cannot say the same about Windows laptop, even the high-end ones that cost as much as an MBP never lasted as long for me.
      I paid $10 for a USB C to MagSafe cable when my charger finally gave in, that generic cable charges fine but not sturdy enough to be trusted if there is need to charge it on the go regularly.
      $24 is cheaper than some of the generic ones I had seen on Amazon.

    Lmaoo I just received a couple of these and they're straight up used. Most likely demo products.

      got unlucky

      • Aretwo on 13/09/2025 - 17:14

        Not too fussed though, as they both work fine and only had a few marks on them that wiped off. At the very least they're probably like 9 years old, if not older.
