Yes, it’s just another example of Apple really paying attention to quality hardware for people that do work with their machines. Pc makers really show very little attention to things that actually matter to professional users on a day to day...
I wish all manufacturers put at least some effort into calibrating their screens like Apple did. A good bit of them finally are, but I always appreciated Apple for this. Anyways - I have no dog in this fight. Just saw your mention of a...
Not really. Apple doesn't make products that are comparable to the shitty parts bin laptops, at any price point. You can look at just the memory spec and try to compare 8GB vs 8GB, but there is more to a computer than that.
At $1400, you get...
I’m not sure I trust those numbers on those sites, as their methods for obtaining numbers are questionable and rely on methods Apple blocks. I also think Linux is seeing higher usage than they give credit to for similar reasons. Their tracking...
This. The arm chips were so good out of the gate most people aren’t seeing a need to upgrade. Work buys me a new toy every year, but I really see no difference between my M3 and my M1 MacBook pro. They are that good.
The other half is, if you have an M1 based Mac for 90% of the consumer base there is no need to go to an M3.
If you are a corporate user there are few reasons to upgrade to an M3 from either the M1 or M2 variants. Unless you specifically need...
Why does it have to be so specific at all? Why a specific use-case to get people behind it
How about I just want my phone to be OFF when I turn it off? Seems reasonable to me.
Oh I'm aware that it doesn't use much power - a factor that makes it a useful addition when intended for use, but one that makes it more concerning if cannot be controlled or not without very granular process management inspection; you're not...
That much I could believe. Greedy politicians? Practically a given. Counter-intuitive conspiracies about how re-instating a law that might give the government the power to slap a few trillion dollar ISPs on the wrist for extortion will somehow...
Clickbait-slime is the only thing keeping the lights on for a lot of these tech sites. Nvidia drivers aren't infallible, but all the other systems at the tourney were on identical hardware including GPU. If anything, people jumping up and down...
Correlation is not proof of causation. I think for a fair competition it is a necessity to have standardized hardware. Just because nvidia or amd is sponsoring an event doesn't mean that's the only reason to have official hardware.
A single driver crash does not mean a system is unstable. It's a game being played on gamer-grade hardware.
This practice was stopped a decade ago because of the rampant cheating that it encouraged. Tournament after tournament was being won by...
I agree, but on the other hand, once you make it known that a computer failure basically gives you a do-over, then you can bet that there will be at least one idiot that will intentionally try to make his computer crash once it's obvious that...
Yeah there is a lot that matters and that we have no idea about here. I also got no clue about that game specifically so I can't say if it's known or anything, but it's a popular title and nvidia has the vast majority of the market so I presume...
