You basically don’t use sudo on macOS though. Maybe once in a blue moon

This makes no sense? How is one even correlated with the other? Data centers obviously have much different requirements than office buildings for people. On a very small scale this works but not on a larger scale.

This article feels weirdly anachronistic with talking points I haven't really heard anyone mention since like 2023.

I agree, I keep mine pretty minimal, most are basically there as ads to remind you they exist cough cough ms teams.

This doesn't actually prove your original comment. It just says that it could happen, not that it is happening.

I think this is one of the things they're fixing in macOS 27 golden gate, took them long enough. https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOSBeta/comments/1u0lhyz/macos_27...

Why do you care? It’s a hobby like anything else.

Canada passed a similar bill a few years ago causing meta to stop showing Canadian news content on their platforms. It didn’t really impact them financially or user wise. So the same thing will probably happen in Italy.

Ourworldindata basically just uses data from published research papers and makes interactive graphs that are easy to understand. They also cite their source in every graph and every article. Trying to paint them as disingenious is pretty baseless, you would have to take it up with the authors of the source data and not owid.

The 20h figure is specifically for streaming 4k Netflix in the app on Windows. Netflix doesn’t even support 4K streaming on Linux as far as I know.

They would have definitely advertised if it was something special like mini-LED but it seems to be a pretty standard display.

In his presentation, Nirav compared it twice to a MacBook. Even saying they want to build the MacBook of the Linux world iirc. While I also agree with you, it’s still a valid comparison.

Claude and opencode aren’t natively supported but there’s a Claude code package in the FreeBSD repos. For cursor, I have no idea.

He’s also been shipping the smaller petaflop tinyboxes with either nvidia or amd.

I’ve read this a couple of times now but when I check the pcpartpicker price trend for ram it is flat.

Gemini-cli is much worse in my experience but I agree

My problem is that I don’t use the majority of these functions at all. Command I can use for almost everything no matter how frequent or infrequent. It also replaces most “ctrl+shift” binds which is a great plus for me.

Super key for most keybinds is much nicer than windows in my opinion, where it is entirely wasted on opening the start menu. On Linux it gains a few functions based on the desktop environment but not much.

Sorry for even mentioning astroturfing, haha. It’s just because the promotion of the device is based on trying to fool people it was made by tiny corp.

That thing is NOT related to tinybox or tinygrad in any way. It is basically copyright infringement. Unless you’re astroturfing here I suggest you get your money back.

I feel like the Mac lineup is still coherent especially compared to basically every other laptop manufacturer. The iPad lineup I don't know.

On my M1 Air I have: Percentage Used: 4% Data Units Read: 564,731,366 [289 TB] Data Units Written: 182,194,700 [93.2 TB] and I thought I was using it extensively haha.

Sell it on eBay instead. I saw a post today where an M4 pro MacBook that cost 4k last year has a trade in value of 1.1k now.

The X925 core is used in chips like the gb10 for the nvidia dgx spark. So it is relevant to compare to apple silicon performance imo. The mac studio is pretty much a competitor to it.

The intention behind lockdown mode is protection for a select few groups of people such as journalists, that are at risk of having software like Pegasus used against them. It’s to reduce the attack surface. The average user wouldn’t want most of it as a default setting, for example: almost no message attachments allowed, no FaceTime calls from people you haven’t called and safari is kneecapped. Making this a default setting for most people is unrealistic and also probably won’t help their cybersecurity as they wouldn’t be targeted anyway.

I think you have it backwards. The new app launcher is unequivocally more like iOS. Like iOS' app launcher it: 1. does not support making your own folders which launchpad had 2. has groups per app type like "Creativity" or "Productivity" which are literally taken verbatim from the iOS app drawer/launcher page. Both designs are obviously inspired by iOS but I don't see it as a mac optimized version at all.

How are you so sure this will be a definite improvement? Many well-meaning policies have had a measurable negative effect.

Do you have any source? Googling it tells me otherwise.

So instead of buying ad space we can now buy catalog space and reinvent the wheel.

They should add a button to turn off the icons. The new menu icons aren't the only icon annoyance either, their own app icons look worse across the board with few exceptions.
