  • Invoxia announces smart dog collar to track heart activity

    Had me until subscription. Nope, nope, nope. 
    There needs to be an op-ed in every major newspaper about how disastrous the subscription model really is.

    But back on track, it's great to see more things being done in pet health, but the real question is, does it really help prolong their life like it does with humans?

  • TSMC starting production of 3nm chips for Mac, iPhone

    nubus said:
    It was expected for TSMC to drop the N3 process due to limited performance improvements and problems with energy consumption. Instead we get it. If this is more than "we promised to start production before end of year" then MacBook Pro and Studio are prime candidates for N3. M2 will likely never end up in.a MacBook Pro and M3 might be "1st generation 3nm".
    It’s possible these chips are indeed M3 chips based on what the iPhone 15 Pro Max phones will have. If they are putting M series chips in iPads, perhaps they will start putting them in iPhones. Kind of a convoluted mess but hey, as long as we get the speed, efficiency and the fastest chips out there, who cares how Apple does it? That’s for marketing to sort out :smiley:

  • Delayed Apple Silicon Mac Pro, what's coming in 2023, Apple Music Classical

    You'd think Apple might have issued a statement on this, particularly Apple Music Classical.
    Almost like they don't give a damn these days.
    When has Apple ever issued a statement about unreleased products? They will be delivered when they’re ready. I’d rather Apple take the time to spit and polish than launch something half baked.

    It is pretty obvious that Apple doesn't know how to build a faster Mac Pro that would offer faster GPU performance than the high performance cards that can be installed in the current Mac Pro.  As well as offer an Apple Silicon Mac Pro that meets or exceeds the 1.5TB RAM option in the current Mac Pro.  Apple isn't going to release a Mac Pro with slower GPU performance just to put Apple Silicon in it.  And the RAM limit of 128GB of the M1 Ultra would be embarrassing compared to the 1.5TB limit of the current Mac Pro.  
    Is it obvious? You’ve interviewed the engineers personally? What else did they tell you? My guess is it just isn’t ready yet. When it’s going to be released, it’s going to be an absolute beast and destroy nearly all others in its class, and especially in its price point. This is the machine for pros so expect it to meet all demands.
