What does the subscription weather app even do? Give you a free umbrella every time you forget yours? I don’t think there is any app worth money on mobile except for some games and professional apps.
Isn’t the lack of security due to poor security implementation rather than low-quality sensors? I don’t see why Apple can’t just use those same sensors but with their own security system.
And I just want iPhones to have Touch ID (they could do it in the power button).
But for Face ID on Macs, I think that’s because the display sides of those aren’t thick enough for Face ID.
I don’t have that program, but according to the system requirements I found online, I think it should run well.
Why? Can’t Apple just take the idea from the video but apply it to the Pro instead to make that thinner?
No, it’s because every tech subreddit has a hate boner for whoever is biased against their brand, especially if clickbait titles and cringe grins are involved. This sub hated Linus even before those allegations.
TLDW: This video shows this device called the “Frore AirJet”, which is an active cooler that uses piezoelectrics rather than fans to push air through at 1700 pascals.
The Verge article on them: https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/27/23975368/frore-airjet-apple-macbook-air-fanless-mems
The LTT team had to do a lot of modifications (remove the speakers to use the speaker vents for airflow, and remove the MagSafe port, one USB-C port, the keyboard’s input cables, and the Wi-Fi antenna), but they were able to get the following results:
Cinebench score | Power usage | |
---|---|---|
Normal 15" M2 Air | 8200 | Around 14.5W |
Modded 15" M2 Air | 8600 | Around 19W |
M2 Pro | 8700 | Around 19.5W |
Other things that help drug traffickers by this logic:
Stardew Valley is so low-intensity it can run on a 10-year-old basic laptop. I’d recommend the 7840U motherboard if you will get into more intense games like Forza Horizon 5 or Elden Ring, otherwise you can just pick the 7640U.
Yeah, but it will be very slow. I had the same issue on my Samsung Galaxy Book2 when its charger failed, and my laptop would only accept 0.8-1W of power from my 15W phone charger 😑
Isn’t the SN770M a 2230 SSD? Those are always more expensive because of how dense the NAND has to be.
I mean, Intel made those CPU versions available in the first place.
I know, I was just exaggerating the fact that x86 systems generally have worse battery life compared to ARM, just like the other guy exaggerated the fact that MacBooks lack some important features.
What’s the point of buying an x86 laptop if the battery life is trash?
Macs have their benefits, and regular laptops have their benefits.
Neither my mouse nor external HDD cable are USB-C (I got both of them this year only, it’s a bit of a shame companies aren’t moving to USB-C).
But don’t they violate Microsoft’s terms of service?
It would be surprising if any other CPU were faster. The M3 Max gets about 20,000 points in Geekbench 6, and the current fastest processor (the Intel i9-13980HX) gets what, 18,000 for 55 watts base TDP and 157 watts turbo TDP?
Imma try to do the math:
i7-1165G7, B-stock | $639 |
---|---|
2 USB-C and 2 USB-A cards | $36 |
16GB Crucial 3200MHz RAM (2 8GB sticks) | $43 |
512GB FireCuda 520 | $35 (heavily discounted on pcpartpicker.com) |
Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 No vPro | $10 |
Total cost | $763 |
Cost if adding Windows 11 Home | $902 |
That can only happen if you are an idiot or clueless or involved in a data leak. All Apple has to do is disable it by default and inform users of the option to do it while giving some disclaimer about security and Apple not being liable for malicious apps.
So, that would be less than $110,000,000 per annum (for iPhones, iPads, MacBooks, and Apple Watches). If AirPods also use ARM SoCs (which is probably the case), then it could be 135M instead.
