  • Microsoft's Copilot PC and the M3 Mac killer myth

    Very good, unbiased  and accurate article.
    They've been hyping these Qualcom chips for months.
    Are they finally available? or is this just more PR spin?
    Even with the spin, they can't beat Apples 8 month old chip and the cheapest MacBook in single core 🤣

    Given the Surface has a fan, why compare it to the MacBook Airs rather than the MacBook Pros?
    Surface Laptop 15" is $1299 for Snapdragon X Elite with 16 GB RAM and 256 GB SSD

    MacBook Air 15" is $1299 for M3 with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB SSD

    MacBook Pro 16" is $2499 for M3 Pro with 18 GB RAM and 512 GB SSD

    Surface Laptop 13" is $999 for Snapdragon X Plus with 16 GB RAM and 256 GB SSD

    Macbook Air 13" is $1099 for M3 with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB SSD

    Macbook Pro 14" is $1599 for M3 with 8 GB RAM and 512 GB SSD
    Microsoft/Windows products should be at least $400 cheaper than the equivalent MacBook and a lap top with more cores and a fan, shouldn't be compared to an Air with an 8 month old Processor in it, even doing that, they can't beat the aging M3 in single core and everything else will be worse, including editing !

  • System Settings getting shuffled again in macOS 15, among other UI tweaks

    The changes are needed, the current set up lacks any logic

  • All-screen foldable MacBook may come in multiple sizes with M5 processor

    Not for me, niche product, can't think of what it would be useful for?
    I certainly don't believe it will be an M5

  • Apple's new diversity exec hails from Bank of America

    Came here to see the knee-jerk semi-racist and pretty-much-racist responses to anything ever posted here related to this subject. I was unsurprised to find it stacking up as expected.

    It's funny when people object to intentional efforts for diversity and inclusion as a pearl-clutching affront to "merit-based" hiring, as if merit based hiring has ever been a thing. When non-male, non-white people are excluded and steered away from a field like coding or engineering at every turn starting with early childhood, the resultant competition among the folks who make it to the point where they can even apply for the job cannot then be called winners in a merit-based system. If your competition has been repeatedly kneecapped before they ever make it to the starting line, getting to the finish line first does not make you a merit-based winner. If half your competition has never had a chance to get to the race, even as you "win," you should know that you've never actually been tested in a merit-based system.
    Typical racist response, full of unsubstantiated dribble!
