Apple made almost $90 billion last quarter alone!

FWIW, I found the best performance using Azul's Java 17 ARM64 JDK with ManyMC.  It's truly amazing - peak is about 100x faster in everything - imagine selecting a Minecraft world and being able to start playing in less than 4 seconds! . Minecraft and Java really seems to have the single greatest speedup going native of all applications.  For me, #2 was Blender, which was about 12x faster.

I’m sorry, but who am I again to need this machine?

First line:

an avid crafter or starting your own small business and want to handle the merchandising yourself

There's just nothing in this article to hint at what this product actually does.  From the photos, I'm guessing it cuts shapes out of fabric?  But what would you do with such shapes?

Buy a 16" Macbook Pro with an 8TB hard drive.  Tear the screen off with your bare hands.  Done.

I know this is a basic question, but I haven't seen it answered anywhere:

Can the US president force a US based company to ban an App in a foreign country?
Or can companies do what they feel like outside the US?

I realize a President could always threaten retaliation on behavior they don't like, but can they actually tell Apple "you cannot offer WeChat in the Chinese App Store?

Just curious if anyone knows?
