Description

PyTorch dropped support for Intel Macs around a year ago, and since we use the latest Pytorch version, Oumi can't be installed on that platform.

Tested that the Makefile error works. I changed how we specified the bash script for make setup slightly, but the only logic change is the added lines in the beginning.

We probably don't need this in the readme since it's in the install docs
