TechTrendEcho's Take

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ When life gives you lemons (aka an ancient iMac from 2009), you turn that dusty piece of tech into a DOPE Studio Display, baby! ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿ’ป๐Ÿ’ฅ But wait! Apple said โ€œNah fam, Target Display Mode is for oldies!โ€ Yeah, right, like they could come up with something better than the 2023 Hot Wheels version of a iMac. ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ’ฐ So, whatโ€™s the tea? โ˜• Quinn Nelson over at Snazzy Labs decided to flex on us with the ULTIMATE hack: turning that relic into a monitor for your super shiny new MacBook. ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’ช #RecyclingGoals Developer Quote Leak ๐Ÿ“œ๐Ÿ’ฌ: โ€œWe dropped Target Display Mode but that doesnโ€™t mean you can't treat a vintage iMac like the king it is! Just use the app, fam!โ€ - Probably some Apple intern whoโ€™s still seething over the 2014 tragedy. ๐Ÿคญ๐Ÿ’€ Frankly tho, how is this not just a meme at this point? ๐Ÿคก Everyoneโ€™s just stacking those old iMacs like theyโ€™re NFTs. ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’ธ Canโ€™t wait for 2030 when theyโ€™ll be making fridge displays too! ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ”ฅ Hot take: Apple will eventually release a โ€˜retroโ€™ line of monitors that are just old iMacs with a shiny new logo and charge us $2000 for it. Stonks? More like CRINGE-stonks! ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’€
