@MMeghanMcCarthy @dannyimusic
I was discussing Ayn Rand's philosophy with my 14 year old (who saw Rainbow Rocks in the theatre), and I was curious to know: Are the lyrics in "Battle" intended to sound like the Dazzlings were selling a Randian dream (i.e. a con) to the students?

@LinusTech Multi-Displays, you have to chose between:
- other displays go black when in full screen mode,
or
- you can't spread windows across multiple displays.

Full-Screen Safari Videos:
If you command-tab away from a full screen Safari video, you can't command-tab back to it.

@Rick_Baumhauer @RealMasterLeeee @markgurman It's possible the chip has 19 GPUs, or maybe it has 20 but one is off or allowed to be busted.

Almost certainly there will be a lower CPU/GPU binned chips AS WELL. I would bet on:

Better: 10 cpu / 16 gpu
Best: 12 cpu / 19 gpu

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@RealMasterLeeee @markgurman Yeah, the numbers don't feel consistent. I'm still kinda expecting the following, which the rumoured 192 GB Mac Pro perfectly aligns with, unless Apple is just holding back the architecture until the M3 Pro/Max/Ultra/Quadra.

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@MacRumors @HartleyCharlton It feels a bit inconsistent.

I figured the M2 Max MBPs would get a max RAM of 96 GB, but he suggests 64GB and 256GB for the Mac Pro; but, he says there's a 192 GB RAM Mac Pro config which would match my guess for an M2 Ultra. So an M2 Quadra max RAM config could be 384GB?

While trying to derive party support from a horrible Block Vote ballot is neigh impossible, it is obvious that the result we got DOESN'T match the votes we cast.

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

I was brutally wrong that the RESULT was random, but wow is Vancouver's election still not representative, with 0% representation of Forward, Vision, and TEAM voters.
@FairVoteCanada

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@FairVoteCanada Is everyone ready to watch the First Past the Post Random Results Game for Vancouver's elections? 9 councillor slates, overlapping platforms, bad Block Vote electoral system (no, Wards isn't the answer). It's going to be a sad and unrepresentative show tonight!

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@planet4589 My question: how much mass ended up get transferred from from the smaller orbiting body to the other?

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@j_mcelroy Wards for Vancouver is basically the same electoral system used Provincially and Federally. We have already seen how bad these First Past The Post electoral systems are, so Stop trying to choose the lesser of two evils, because they both suck.

@MartinNobel_ I included your distribution here:

https://t.co/9j4T7DmEMw

including references to your tweets, I hope that is fine. :)

Thanks.

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@MartinNobel_ Thank you for correctly listing both startup and shutdown. Most sites are just calling the shutdown chime AS the new startup chime.

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@reckless I am strangely fascinated by these huge party speakers!

Who buys them? How do they perform for the money? How do companies decide between DJ and Karaoke features?

I want one, but I have zero use for one. Do any of them support pairing two for stereo (twice as ridiculous).

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

People complain about the size of the camera bump on the iPhone 14 Pro?

Imagine if that camera bump was on the iPhone 2G...

wait, you don't need to imagine it...

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@stroughtonsmith I added some iPhone 14 data and Point Size guesses, I should confirm the real numbers.

Apple lists MORE devices than this that support Display Zoom actually: https://t.co/UmjGiGLwVn

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@stroughtonsmith Some rounding challenges, and I need to add the iPads, but I think think this is *mostly* right:

[David Schaub @DavidPSchaub]

@steven_aquino Does anyone have a recording of it? It has been a LONG time since I added a new StartUpSound to my collection: https://t.co/9j4T7DmEMw

@atpfm Regarding MBP thermals:

Why not add "don't run clamshell"? If performance is the primary requirement, leave it open and allow additional heat dissipation off the keyboard?
