Phobos7 said: Hmm… Seems that a more descriptive update notice would offer nothing more than BRAGGING RIGHTS. I agree with MichelB Apple has always (however misguided) made my machine better. … Yeah, it isn’t just Apple. I hate this cutesy…

Phobos7 said: My HP Original, kind of like a first issue, but not, still plays music very efficiently, and that’s outdoors.My minis have what I believe is a short in the power cable. I’m glad to hear your HP is working fine. I’m sure many are…

I’m sure there are people/situations where the form-factor of the mini matters, and they’d like to see it done differently. I’m on the opposite side, though. I’d actually like to see it get bigger with a better/more-quiet cooling system (hence my pr…

The question for me (or, actually my son… I think I need to wait for the M2 or M3 Studio for adequate GPU performance), is between the base Studio and the mini M2 Pro. They are kind of close in both price and seemingly performance. I guess the Studi…

Hmm, yeah, it would be nice to know what it addresses. I’ll guess I’ll just have to wait and see if it somehow magically fixes the incessant crackling on my AirPods Pro. (I love them, but it sure is crappy Apple won’t support such an expensive produ…

I’d really love a pair, but w/o audio in, it’s a no-go. And, I wonder if they solved the problem with a seemingly high percentage of the original ones breaking? They are way too expensive if they only last a couple of years (and Apple won’t stand be…

keithw said: If I did the math right, the M2 Max over the M1 Max was 47.5% higher on "Metal." Hypothesizing equal improvements, we may get 139,500 out of the M2 Ultra in the Studio (whenever Apple decides to release it.) That's ALMOST as fas…

entropys said: In the absence of actual numbers, high percentage increases smell like some lame marketing department attempt at manipulation. I think the paid subscription model might end up doing apple more harm than good. Just about anyth…

crowley said: The two other guys abjectly failed, can you give a single name? Sorry, I'm missing context here, I guess. Two other guys failed? You're wanting the name of someone cancelled/banned? Alex Berenson (former NYT reporter) is a grea…

crowley said: Bull. Plenty of those are still on Twitter. Yeah, and some have been reinstated. It wasn't a total, absolute block of everything. It was just harsh enough to put fear in to a lot of people who cared about their online presence…

auxio said: Everyone I've debated with online about things like the effectiveness of masks and similar ends up pointing to articles from websites which have zero credibility, or pointing to the words of experts but with no links to the peer-revi…

Marvin said: There was a video here testing temperatures and they ran both CPU and GPU tests for 3 hours - Cinebench, Redshift and 3DMark at the same time - and they said temperatures didn't go above 72C and fans stayed around 1300RPM (1:00): So…

He has a long road ahead of him, given that he can't just fire a bunch of them and start over. But, I wish him all the best. Twitter is highly infected.
