How to fix weak Wi-Fi on a M4 Mac mini when connected to a drive or dock
snookie said:Every person reading this article is wondering why you aren’t recommending some cables to use.
As a general rule, avoid cables for data that are made by a brand with too many adjacent consonants to pronounce. -
M4 Mac mini review: The first redesign in years hides incredible computing power
charlesn said:Nice review, Mike. My only surprise is that this didn't get the full five stars. Very rarely (if ever?) does Apple nail a product at its price point better than this. But I guess there's always room for a 1/2 star of improvement. Speaking of which: it's late 2024 and Apple really should be on board with Wifi 7 for the products it's releasing now--devices that will be in use years into the future. No, it's not going to be a while before wifi 7 router prices come down. Lower prices are here. TP-Link Archer's BE230 is WiFi 7 with dual multi-gig ports for $99. And Asus has released the Wifi 7 versions of its super popular 86U and 88U routers with prices competitive with what the Wifi 6 models sold before Wifi 7 came along. Yes, the absolute bleeding edge routers will still cost you $500 and more, but's always the case.
Wi-Fi 7 and slightly lower upgrade pricing would have kicked it over to 5 for me. -

If you're willing to spend a little more, a USB4 / Thunderbolt 4 or 5 SSD will offer 2-3X faster speeds than USB 3.2 too. -

Apple's 'Submerged' for Apple Vision Pro is submarine warfare terror in the comfort of you...
sflagel said:I wonder, how does the author feel about “exploiting” the dangerous real terror of submarine warfare for safe entertainment? Does he think making the terror so close to reality without any of the danger is ultimately a good or a bad thing, does it cheapen or enhance the respect Cold War vets deserve?I am 100% fine with people knowing the experience and fate of fleet boat sailors without having to die or get torpedoed in the process.
