Japan was ~99% Japanese in 1990 and is ~97% Japanese today and that 2% shift was enough to destroy an ethnically homogenous high trust society.

@TheGalox_ Aren't offline LLMs considered a standout feature?

@KiddMichael @asheme62 @CardPurchaser It’s worth noting that eBay offers 250 free listings for trading cards every month.

Can 8GB of Unified Memory on MacBook Neo match 16GB on Windows Laptops? NO!

Did a RAM stress test by exporting photos in Lightroom which is VERY RAM-hungry and opened browser tabs.

The slow SSD speed sabotages the swap memory performance.

@stats_feed 30 days for business is generous. All countries should be like this.

@noahhermanyt If I needed a work laptop to use at my desk I would choose that Dell over the MacBook Neo. It has double the storage, an HDMI port, multiple USB 3 ports, enough RAM to run Adobe apps without swapping data to the SSD, and I could install a second SSD for Linux.

@BellaBaddie__ For $5 million I better earn it so I'd play Resident Evil 4 Remake in VR.

@futureform_ No. It would most likely have only 8GB of RAM that's not upgradable. Considering I want my devices to be relevant for 20+ years, this would be a bad purchase.

@africanDerv @ChristianDuern1 @BenBajarin The consumers in my location put their noses up to a $599 M1 MacBook Air and purchased these laptops instead. All that matters to some consumers are the words "upgradable" or "self-repairable."

@ShishirShelke1 People need to realize the 8GB RAM on the MacBook Neo can't be upgraded and a simple thing such as offering 16GB of RAM would have allowed all modern MacBook users to use a wide variety of apps such as those from Adobe without issues.

MacBook Neo, under sustained single-thread load, the clock dropped to 3GHz after 5 minutes.

Even in an E-core-only test, clocks fell by about 20% after a few minutes, so sustained clock stability was weak.

As a result, in the HandBrake test (CPU multi-thread transcoding), it was about 20% slower than the M1.
Its sustainable power draw was around 4W. (yeah, performance per watt is fking nuts tho)

The likely reason is that the A18 chip has its memory packaged on top of the chip, which makes heat dissipation worse.

So in sustained heavy workloads like gaming, transcoding, and rendering, the A18 will perform worse even than the M1

@zephrovicz @BeAfraid_Movies Indeed. The ship part is so bad in VR I always switch to the screen mode and get it over with as soon as possible.
